Spoiler: Anti-Hero Groups

Show

While as a general rule, here in the Ambrose-verse heroes have a positive impact on the world around them and the public at large appreciates what they do with varying levels of intensity, there are still contrarians out there. They range from people who simply don't believe that somebody could be that altruistic and think heroes are just in it for money and fame to the sort of people who'll share poorly edited graphs on their social media or think that the whole 'heroes and villains' thing is carefully orchestrated sideshow to distract from everyone from what's really going on. By and large their considered to be kooks but mostly harmless, New Harbour does have a larger concentration of these people then most who have gotten it in to their heads that the destruction of the city was some how the Protectorate's fault.

Also since that was a stonkingly good roll, if there's anything specific you want to know just ask away.

Protester Will vs DC20 (1d20+1)[13]

Spoiler: Captain Blackcoat

No surprise, the protester is mad! But it seems to be kind of unfocused? Like they're just here to make loud noises and wave a sign about rather than having any sort of immediate target.

Also are you still out there Dr.Gunsforhands?

[Llyarden]

Hmm, so...I do also have Well-Informed, between that and my critical Expertise check would Wildcard recognise anyone in particular in the group as being notable anti-hero types? (He's in the crowd somewhere, so I would assume he gets quite a good look at them as they shove their way towards the stage.)

[Dodgeson]

New Harbour's specific brand of anti hero weirdos do have something of a figurehead in the form of a woman by the name of Sarah Ness who runs a podcast/blog that they've coalesced around (yes she uses the song you're thinking of, no she doesn't pay for it), however she doesn't appear to be a part of this particular mob.

[Quellian-dyrae]

Fortitude (DC 20): (1d20+10)[30].
Perception (DC 20): (1d20+10)[19].

[Quellian-dyrae]

Routining the Perception check, because I should have done that last time and Subtle being used to make an attack outside of combat more than once is a pet peeve of mine.

Fortitude (DC 20): (1d20+10)[23]. More nope

EXTRA TEXT

[Quellian-dyrae]

It's all good, the thing is just so poorly designed. To be fair I have yet to figure out a better way to design it.

[Llyarden]

Some more longshot Perception (DC20): (1d20)[17] Better, but still not quite there...

[Starsign]

Alright maybe this Perception check goes better: (1d20+8)[19] Dang

[Dr.Gunsforhands]

Fort (to resist being physically puppeted, I guess?): (1d20+10)[29]
Perception (to realize that something's afoot): (1d20+10)[30]
Perception (to see the sneaky boi): (1d20)[2]

[Llyarden]

Some Assessments:
Big Al: (1d20+20)[21]
Delilah: (1d20+20)[31]
Madcap: (1d20+20)[22]
Lucy: (1d20+20)[29]

And some sort of check to know about Lucy if possible, either Well-Informed or Expertise (Superheroes/Supervillains): (1d20+20)[31]

Tiebreaker dice roll, 1-10 Blackcoat is on turn 11-20 it's the villains!

(1d20)[20] Villains it is!

[Llyarden]

Toughness (DC25): (1d20+14)[22] Bruised
Fort (DC20): (1d20+8)[25] Resist

[Llyarden]

The forgotten-about Deflect: (1d20+6)[9] +10 for Deflect, but still doesn't make a difference.

[Quellian-dyrae]

Toughness (DC 31): (1d20+12)[13].
Fortitude (DC 26): (1d20+10)[11].

[Quellian-dyrae]

Wow really? There go both my HP I guess.

Toughness Reroll: (1d10+22)[28]. Bruised
Fortitude Reroll: (1d10+20)[28]. Resists

[Dodgeson]

Big Al Defence vs Damage (DC20) (1d20+8)[14] Dazed & Bruised

Delilah Deflect vs DC23 (1d20+12)[22] +10 on a roll of 10 or less. Deflected
Delilah Toughness vs DC25 (1d20+8)[22]

[Llyarden]

Now how many Hero Points do I have again..?

Defence (DC25, -1 for Bruise): (1d20+5)[15] Just barely clings to Bruised and Dazed
Defence (DC25, -1 for Bruise): (1d20+5)[15] -1 for above Bruise. Bruised and Staggered
Toughness (DC28): (1d20+14)[17] Forgot the Bruise I started with, further -2 for Bruises = 14, Bruised and Staggered again -> Out. Of course the one I'm good at is the one I roll worst on. Rerolled.

[Llyarden]

I can probably survive that with just 1hp, let's reroll against that crit.

Toughness redux, this time with the right bonus (DC28, -3 for Bruises): (1d20+11)[30] Resist.

[Dodgeson]

Madcap Toughness vs DC33 (1d20+12)[31] Bruised
Madcap Fort vs Vulnerable/Defenceless/Paralysed (DC27) (1d20+10)[24] Vulnerable
Madcap Will vs Entranced/Compelled/Controlled (DC27) (1d20+10)[24] Entranced

[Quellian-dyrae]

Deflect can't beat Big Al's roll so:
Toughness (DC 31, -1 for Bruise): (1d20+11)[22]. Bruised and Dazed
Defense (DC 26): (1d20+8)[17] (add 2 if Defensive Attack applies). Launched

Reflect against Delilah: (1d20+10)[29].

Defense (DC 26): (1d20+8)[9].

[Dodgeson]

Not only is Big Al immune to Crits but if he's still standing on his next turn, if his attack connects it is an automatic crit! But the dude All-Out Attacked for +5 and Multiattack is still Multiattack...
