  • ❑ Fight the good fight: When you pull your punches while directly engaging a threat, you can roll + Savior instead of + Danger. If you do, you cannot choose to impress, surprise, or frighten your foe.
  • ❑ Never give up, never surrender: When you take a powerful blow from someone with far greater power than you, use this move instead of the basic move. Roll + Savior. On a hit, you stand strong and choose one. On a 7-9, mark a condition.

    you get an opportunity or opening against your attacker
    you rally from the hit, and it inspires the team; add 1 Team to the pool
    you keep your attacker’s attention

    On a miss, you go down hard but leave your opponent off balance and vulnerable.


Shade managed to keep from yelping as the debris shatters the walkway support, but it was a near thing. MinMax charged in without hesitation to shore up the architecture, his quick thinking saving injuries for certain, possibly even lives.

That just leaves their opponent for her to deal with. Easy, right?

Sweating behind her thankfully concealing shroud of shadows, she hurriedly considered her options. First things first; get the hostage away from him. Any attempt to do so with speed and force had too great a potential to injure the woman, she concluded.

Fine then. She'll just have to make him give her up.

Now...back in the day, when Nan was operating as Midnight, she often didn't have to say a word to strike fear; indeed, her very silence was often more unnerving than anything she might have said. Mom, as Twilight, had well-trained contralto that she could make into a sultry purr, a menacing growl, or a cracking whip.

Shade herself was more than familiar with the last one.

And as for Shade herself? She was 'blessed' with a high, not at all intimidating, irritatingly sweet little voice that she couldn't turn to scary no matter how she tried. So instead she had developed what she surmised was the next best thing.

Creepy.

"Oh, aren't you just the biggest thing!" she said in a little ethereal sing-song, ending with a giggle. "Although you can't be all that, mmm, big, if you have to hide behind this poor little woman." One can almost hear the disappointed little pout in her voice.

Gliding forward on her darkness, Shade cocked more of a hip that she actually possessed thanks to her shroud, her posture a mute challenge.

"Why don't you just…set her down and you and I can play! If you're not too scared," she added with another giggle. She really hated this part sometimes.

Especially if she succeeds in focusing his attention upon her. Considering the size of him...she could be in for a bit of trouble. However – safety of civilians first. That's the mission.
