I will probably modify the spell to fit appropriately with other spells if/when Dukat learns it, but for now it stays as is. |

Ya I'm not arguing with what the spell does, just giving reasons why it wouldn't be in the standard list of invocation spells. |

Are we underground or above ground or at ground level? If we're above ground, 22 would find a window to dive out of. Also would the half damage from heat and cold from healing factor affect the explosion damage? |

Save, save, and SAVE! Good job, I tried to make that inescapable. Could have used more explosives, but I really only wanted to incapacitate you, not obliterate you. Question regarding last post, did they manage to bust out into somewhere where flying is feasible? There's not always a lot of room when indoors or underground. Particularly not when big wings are concerned, even most underground parking garages aren't tall enough for a human sized creature to flap large wings without hitting a pipe or the ground. though I guess they weren't trying ot fly, just a wing assisted jump, height of the underground area still matters. I suppose this is a mega corp, they may have spacious basements, but I guess that would depend on what area they are in. I'm not hating on Fal, Kira's just REALLY pissed at not having his orders followed and the general ineptitude and lack of cohesive team work. They were no help in Rome (actually caused problems), just took off as soon as the plane touched down, and failed to make it to a prearranged debrief even after a reminder call, which shouldn't have been necessary in the first place and went unanswered. Kira's not a very tolerant guy, he's used to having his orders followed and killing anyone who fails to do so for any reason. The others have their own reasons for being here. Man, if you guys escape, this could get really messy... and fun! Heroes and villains (or just 3 villains as the heroes aren't currently involved), against TWO PC villains? Though, the heroes could get involved, that inter-galicta-cop wants to get his hands on 22, thought probably in a non-lethal manner, and since the other villains are allied with the heroes, if Fal and 22 ever tried to attack or get revenge, that would give the heroes reason to get involved too. Messy messy. Edited by Beowulf, Apr 12 2011, 05:07 PM.

XD Fal was at Zota Corp, =p that's where he was supposed to be... Though to be honest even if the radio was not drowned out he probably wouldn't have come XD. Fal isn't big on the revenge thing, that's a human trait and there fore below him. Lol as far as cohesive team work he hasn't really been able to do anything and he doesn't like sitting back and watching so he thought of ways to do something to help him. |

Well Finally! This is what my character was BUILT for. HE was designed to be a tank! HE wasnt supposed to be smart or fast or overly strong. He was just supposed to take anything and everything you can dish out! Ya, I wasn't attempting flight, just going for a little bit of a help in lift. Even if 22 can't clear Asv.(Even Vio is shortening the name) nearly 600 ibs of alien/mutant barelling down the hallway should get me somewhere. |

I hope you guys get somewhere, and I'm glad to see you're enjoying this. As I said, I/Kira didn't want to straight up obliterate them, though one more explosive would have easily done the trick. Capturing the two of you for "disciplinary purposes" (with death to follow if you didn't give the three of us a good reason to keep you around) was more the idea, and it seems that it was not a simple feat to accomplish. It was a heck of a lot of fun to plan and you've made it WAY farther than I (or any of us) thought you would. Based on that fact alone, Kira is more inclined to allow 22 to continue existing (provided they end up still being allies), he has proven that he is good for something. Even so, Kira would never use him for anything that required "subtlety" or "discretion" ever again. I can not, however, speak for Inferi and Asv. They may be a little more blood thirsty. Oh, and if Kira ever learns of what Fal was planning behind his back (random killing spree), he would be most irritated. He would have been less irritated if he were in on the plan. Kira kills people too, he just does so in ways that don't threaten to expose him as a party to murder. Likewise, Inferi and Asv. probably would have loved to get in on some of that action. Kira probably would have altered the plan to go to somewhere like Africa, or maybe get hooked up with black ops, mercs, or assassins, and make a discrete profit while at it. Imagine the US secretary of defense saying "we will pay you (whoever survives) x million (or billion)$ if you can slaughter everyone in this Al-Queida training facility and make it look like it was France's fault, go!" That is the kind of Killing spree Kira would have gone on, and planned for Fal, had Fal included him. |

Lol 22 wasn't really contacted directly, so I don't understand how any of this is his fault. Plus, as far as 22 figures, he was as stealthy as he could possibly be(Which in my mind, he was! Why exactly did the cops chase them for a coat? Did you set that up too? Were you secretly just trying to get mad at us the whole time??? Lol) Also, 13 and I are personally confused as to why Kira is concerned about anything that happened in Rome. Your characters did more harm than ours. You're supposed to look relatively human and blend in. Instead, you went waltzing into the highest security facility on the planet, and robbed them. Even if they didn't blame you directly at first, the fact that you disappeared DURING the event would put you at just about the top of the suspect list. The second fact that you fled the country very shortly after the incident would make you the prime suspects in the crime. Now if you look at what Fal and 22 did. 22 got onto the news as a strange almost mythical flying creature with just about no origins, and even if they can find evidence of 22, it leads to somewhere in the states. Fal's car, which is of an american model, had plates that come up empty and even if that store had video cameras, his face doesn't give them any clues because he's a mutant, with no registered identity, once again comming up with rumors that end in dead ends in a town in the states. Now back to you guys. You have American accents, even if you speak Italian and have passports forged by Zetacorp. The Vatican can trace this back to the USA at the minimum, so what do we all have? That Kira, Infeari, Fal and 22 all come from the states. Asv not withstanding(although I bet the Vatican can trace his whereabouts from when he first stepped into Rome, if not further than that.) So now what was the problem exactly? |

Lol ouch XD Fal is useless. Fal isn't inclined to ask for help from the people who just finished threatening him (Kira) or backstabbing him (Inaeri) and Asv is an unknown. Besides the killing spree was less than random, it was to be carefully planned to take over a large foundry through forced political means. He was just making ready incase things went south. As far as "allies" go, everyone but 22 is an... "acquaintance" |

Hah! They don't know that we fled the country, and they don't know our real identities. The objective was, specifically, to steal the book. There was almost no way of getting out without being noticed, but getting in "under the radar" was priority. 22 Most certainly went "over the radar" long before the mission was accomplished, against Kira's orders. And, honestly, stupidity or ignorance is not an excuse, that just makes him more useless in Kira's books. What's more, Kira can have virtually any accent he wants, he's about 4000 years old and has existed longer than the English language. I'm not sure about Inferi, but I think she's an alien? Neither of us have any truly traceable ID's. They don't even have a traceable picture of Kira, he can change his racial appearance at will. His concern is more that, a - they were not helpful in any way, b - they jeopardized the mission (even if it was still a success and you had no real impact) c - they got seen, even if they got away, and d - they were basically entirely useless. Kira and Inferi got seen, but they also covered their tracks pretty well (though I guess if they were truly successful has yet to be seen). Burned out the cameras, incinerated any live personnel on the scene, and escaped in the ensuing chaos. They could have easily been killed in the fire or the slaughter, and since the library is ash now anyway no one will even know that they stole the book. Oh, and did not set up the cop chase, lol. That was all 22. Edited by Beowulf, Apr 13 2011, 04:00 AM.

Bodies very rarely burn to ash. Its actually surprising the amount of material is left over after someone dies in a fire. They'd be able to identify everyone but you two also, Infeari was destroying the cameras at random as as she saw them. They could have very well captured her face long before she actually destroyed the one that was pointing at her. We weren't useless! Fal totally made radios for the group to communicate. He wasn't useless. 22 was useless on the otherhand I won't argue that, but where did you actually plan to have 22 come into play in a stealth mission where you were planning to use subversion and false ID's to get in? As a pet dog? For all we know, the police were too busy looking for Fal and 22 to properly check your ID's. FINALLY, why are you angry that we almost screwed up the mission? If we hadn't succeeded we wouldn't be facing down a Demon Apocalypse now would we? So really, everyone should be getting mad at YOU for completing the mission. |

Hah! Can't debate that last point, but I think it is what the GM had planned, so one could say we would be facing a demon apocalypse either way, not that the characters would know that. However, had we failed, I'm pretty sure the "dark master" would have killed us all anyway, so it's a choice between certain death earlier, or certain death later. If it comes later we have a chance to plan for it, thus we are still better off. Bodies burn to ash in Inferi's fires (or so I would assume). I know a normal house fire doesn't do something like that. I have heard it takes a few days to properly cremate a body. See, Kira is more pissed at 22 for Rome, and Fal for neglecting the debrief. He's pissed at them both for both things, but one more for one thing, and the other more for another. Either way, he has reason to be pissed at both. In hindsight, we should have had the two of you put on a fantastic diversion at the other end of the city, or like Asv. did, and draw all the attention away. Then you would have been less useless, or even useful. Oh well, makes things more interesting now!

XD the four magic words I've been waiting for "We need a distraction." lol you sent the gun nut mutant cat on a stealth mission... What did Kira honestly expect? =p you had us give outlr strengths so you could plan so no one was going somewhere they wouldn't do well. XD so am I right in reading that Kira would feel left out of a killing spree? =p |

I also did not list stealth as one of my strengths. Why would Infeari's fires be any different? Until he got all 'upgraded' with soul burning fire or whatever it is, her fire was simply directed fire. It wouldn't be any different than normal fire once she left the radius or threw the fireball. If she stood there and cremated the body, sure she could reduce it to ash in a couple minutes, but not in an attack or by running by with a firewall on her heels. Also, I just realized, but actually age and being all over the place doesn't give you the ability to change your accent. That falls under the skills Imitate voices and sounds, or Impersonation. I don't really remember you making either of those rolls. Yes, I thought of Infeari being an alien, but I guess too many years of StarGate and other cheesy sci-fi shows have made me believe aliens all have North American accents. On that subject, Gantu and 22 would both speak with a slight English accent, because they pronounce everything Phonetically correct. Edited by Arthotus, Apr 13 2011, 05:50 PM.

Age wouldn't change the accent, having a 98% skill in a language might though. There's a difference between imitating an accent and learning one, and part of fluency is eliminating one's mother accent. If he did speak with any accent, it would be with the accent of the ancient Egyptian language, an accent that nobody would recognize. Also, there was a general call for stealth in regards to all the missions, not just in Rome, didn't matter where Kira sent you guys. You think things would have gone better if he had said "sit and wait here until we need you?" Could 22 fly if Fal were draped over his shoulder like that? Wouldn't that interfere with the wings? I'd tend to think he'd need to carry him in both arms if he wanted to use his wings. Edited by Beowulf, Apr 13 2011, 10:56 PM.

Nope. having a good language roll doesn't change your accent, you just know the meaning of more words. Yes, that probably would have worked. 22 would have been content to lay in the tarmac/grass beside tarmac/field outside Rome/rooftop, and wait for some kind of notification. Again not trying to fly. Just using the wings to assist with the leap. It might even be superficial, but it's more of an unconscious flap. And ya, Fal is drapped over my neck and sholder, leaving my wings,(which I assume protrude from between my shoulder blades like angel wings) Free to flap. Edited by Arthotus, Apr 14 2011, 06:31 AM.

XD things would have probably gone smoother, if Fal actually listened. Unfortunately he still would have gone to do something at the very least. Lol bottom line Fal gets bored and goes to find something to do if he's not already working or thinking. With a stream of recourses he would probably happily stow away for a month or better lol only problem is eventually he would finish and want to test all his toys. |

Well, either way, we are all in a VERY interesting situation, I'm glad you appear to be enjoying it as much as I am. I had planned this all to be almost foolproof to capture the both of them, but it didn't quite work (amazing rolls Art). Honestly, Kira was very likely to kill them just because he was frustrated (and that's how he is) but now he's seeing 22's merits. Interesting to see how this plays out. Inferi and Asv. may still want to kill for killing sake, which is how Kira got them to sign up in the first place. I'm not sure if Kira would stop them at this point or not.
