2.2 New Alamo: The After Party

Post by KahlessNestor »

Date: September 19, 109 PA
Time: 0200
Weather: Temperature normal for season (warm); no wind, no rain
Location: New Alamo
Ley Line: None
Scene modifiers:
  • Light: Dark -2 illumination
  • Visibility: NA
Round 1

***

Plenty of alcohol flowed that evening, thanks to Whiskey Pete, who made frequent trips back to the Big Boss for fresh crates of booze. The impromptu welcome party went late, but then most of the residents turned in to bed, with a small force left guarding the gate and the walls. The Trailblazers were shown to their small rooms in the cyber-knight barracks or the Magdalena convent, though Nazo opted for a place in the church bell tower and Ryder to sleep out in the Mountaineer. Toad was put up in the large garage/barn.
Instructions
  • If you have any Fatigue left over from the trip, this isn’t gone yet (you need a full night’s sleep). Same with Wounds (outside Golden Hour), unless you got them taken care of via Greater Healing.
  • You partied hard! Make a Vigor roll for drunkenness. On a failure, you are Fatigued (-1). On a critical fail, you are shitfaced and Exhausted (-2). This cannot Incapacitate you. Ashley and Karsk exempt, because she made it very clear she was a teetotaler and he used his alcohol to help Toad.
  • Determine your state of readiness. Are you a schlub that sleeps in his full PA even with his wife at home in bed? How do you go to the bathroom at night? It takes 1d6 rounds to ready yourself.
  • Ryder and Nazo roll Danger Sense. If successful, you wake up feeling uneasy.
  • Ryder, Charlemagne, Vik, Thomas roll Notice -2 (sleeping). This is hearing based. If Ryder’s Danger Sense was successful, he rolls Notice with no penalty.
  • Nazo, Ashley and Karsk roll Notice -4 (sleeping, distance). If Nazo’s Danger Sense was successful, her roll is at no penalty (helps to have radar sense!)
  • We will be in initiative, though combat might not start immediately. Players beat enemies and can go first.
  • Endless rules are in effect on both sides
    • If a player draws a club on initiative, or an enemy draws a joker, more enemy minions will arrive.
    • If an enemy draws a club on initiative, or a player draws a joker, reinforcements will arrive to help you.

Nazo seemed to be sad by the Sake offered up in the bell tower. But all too soon her sadness turned into pity as the Sake kept flowing unabated up up up to the belltower and down down down her throat. ”Why is it I am alone?” She muttered radaring out into the darkness trying to detect her master. ”Why does everyone react in fear or hatred when the see the real me?” A good question to be sure but the funnel of Sake going down her throat made her retorical answer more of a gurgled mumble. ”Please... Please... No more...” She tried to move away and get out of the bell tower but what was started by Charlemagne would not be stopped by the grinning Wiskey Pete. She just lays sprawled out on the bed roll high in the bell tower, in her under garments, at the mercy of wiskey Pete, a funnel, and all the Sake in the world.

At some point her own vomit and urge to pee woke her up with an uneasy feeling... The kind of feeling that meant trouble was arround. Her gear was spread the length of the tower strewn arround like a 2 year old had thrown a tantrum. Where is anything is this pile of shit? Uggghhh that is shit. Looks like someone had taken the time to leave little bits of their poop mixed in with the gear making it that much harder to get ready. Off kilter, woozy, and finding it exceedingly difficult to discern different parts of her armor Nazo Bumbled through getting her gear on best a blind drunk woman could.”Uggghhh, I am going to be sick... Where is the radio—“ Nazo gave her best call for danger lurking by spewing a liter of half digested Sake over the side of the bell tower. Perhaps it is then she saw what was truely coming in the dark. Oh and urine runs down her pretty silky smooth leg.

2 rounds to get into armor and up to the front of the Cassowary.
Ryder sat up in the dark on his cot in the back of the Aeon Cssowary. His shook his head to clear the cobwebs--he'd had more than just the one beer he originally planned to accept from Charlemagne, and it left him a bit woozy, but he'd avoided the hard stuff, so wasn't feeling too bad. But he did have that sinking feeling in the pit of his gut, the one that said things were going down. And the sensors were starting to buzz--another sign that things were off-kilter. He grabbed his armor and started slipping into it, before moving to the front of the Cassowary and turning on the lights and checking the scanners.

Vik wakes up in the alley behind the convent, surrounded by empty liquor bottles and bits of wax paper that once held tacos, feeling ...

"Right as fucking rain," the irrepressible temporal misfit says, hopping up to relieve himself against the convent wall.

He must have done the same thing in the night -- or else fancied himself another boxing match with the bishop -- because the codpiece of his armor is off, balancing on top of a bottle that once in the not-too-distant past was filled with toilet wine that ever-so-slightly resembled whiskey.

"Ol' Pete was overselling 'is wares a mite, believe you me. Burned like flaming piss goin' down, and burns the same going out," he says to no one in particular, giving his left arse-cheek a good scratch -- must have removed his arse armor in the night, as well.

"It was all a bit shite, truth be told, tho I didn't get none o' that sockey-puppets what Charles gave to Naz, so p'raps Peter the Purveyor was saving 'is best for the female types. Wouldn't be the fi ... Eh wot? D'you hear that, Lord Richard? Not sure wot, but I don't like the sound."

Zipping his twig and berries back into his trousers, Vik hurriedly reattaches his front and rear groin protection before gathering his gear and going in search of whatever it is giving him the shivers.

Charlemagne was not immune to the allure of a little liquid relaxation. He enjoyed a glass...or a bottle, of a fine cabernet sauvignon, acquired from Whiskey Pete. The stamina of the Lyn-Srial, however, is undaunted by his minor celebration. He wakes in the middle of the night. I heard...something. Much experience in combat and quick deployment has taught him all the shortcuts to donning his armor, which he does at an impressive pace, considering the number of pieces. Once armored, he engages his cyber-knight metal shell, preparing himself for the worst. I'll not be taken unawares.
Triggering his radio, he checks in on the remaining members of the 101st. "My friends, wake and arm yourselves. I believe a reconnaissance patrol is warranted."

***

Charlemagne was awakened by the sound of a door closing and someone in the hall outside. Then he heard the front door of the barracks open and close. Looking out a window into the darkness, he noticed Whiskey Pete walking slowly toward his Big Boss and trailer. He seemed to be muttering to himself, fumbling around in his pocket, and sometimes making emphatic gestures as if talking to someone.

Nazo, from her perch up in the bell tower, Ryder in the Mountaineer, and Karsk looking out from the barn, saw saw the same thing.

Vik, behind the convent, just heard the door and soft muttering.

On the wall by the gate, the squire and novice on duty seemed more interested in making eyes at each other than really keeping watch, though they did glance down at Whiskey Pete as he crossed the yard before turning their attention to each other.

One of the New Alamo citizens emerged from the rectory to start stumbling home.
Instructions
  • Here is how we will handle readiness: You all rolled for how many rounds it will take you to get armor on, etc. You may choose to join combat at any time. If you join before your readiness is up, subtract the remaining rounds from your Armor/Toughness, and your armor is not FEP.
    • Ashley: Hasn’t rolled in yet
    • Barinthasheer: Hasn’t rolled in yet.
    • Charlemagne: 1 round remaining
    • Karsk: 2 rounds remaining
    • Nazo: 5 rounds remaining
    • Ryder: 1 round remaining
    • Thomas: Hasn’t rolled in yet
    • Vik: Ready to go
  • If you have any Fatigue left over from the trip, this isn’t gone yet (you need a full night’s sleep). Same with Wounds (outside Golden Hour), unless you got them taken care of via Greater Healing.
  • Barinthasheer, Thomas: You partied hard! Make a Vigor roll for drunkenness. On a failure, you are Fatigued (-1). On a critical fail, you are shitfaced and Exhausted (-2). This cannot Incapacitate you.
  • Ashley, Thomas: Determine your state of readiness. Are you a schlub that sleeps in his full PA even with his wife at home in bed? How do you go to the bathroom at night? It takes 1d6 rounds to ready yourself.
  • Thomas roll Notice -2 (sleeping). This is hearing based.
  • Ashley roll Notice -4 (sleeping, distance).
  • We will be in initiative, though combat might not start immediately. Players beat enemies and can go first.
  • Endless rules are in effect on both sides
    • If a player draws a club on initiative, or an enemy draws a joker, more enemy minions will arrive.
    • If an enemy draws a club on initiative, or a player draws a joker, reinforcements will arrive to help you.

Notice 0
Barinthasheer is more concern with getting outdoors before he transforms this round IMO so I'm forgoing his roll

After a couple of hours reading an Erin Tarn book he found in the room he was given Barinthasheer began to feel a strange fatigue throughout his body. He'd never held human form this long but he understood instinctively he could not do so much longer. Not wanting to be stopped he opts for the window, dropping to the ground between the convent and the rectory just as a rough looking member of the heroes he'd heard about came around the corner. With a large gun gripped in his left elbow, the human was cupping a match to light the stub of a cigar.

"Oy, this is no time for an adventure ya daft shite, git yer cheeky arse back in there." Vik growls at the kid wanting to send him back inside but not trying to get the lad caught.

"I can't Mr. Hero sir. I have to get big now. I promise I'm not a monster." As he says this the boy is sideling away from Vik and twords the middle of the alley, glancing back and forth as if measuring distance. Making eye contact with the puzzeled techno wizard the child shudders and his flesh quivers unnaturally for a second. In a thin pleading voice, "Please don't be afraid."

Once again his flesh shudders, then explodes outwards. Changing color to the red and gold of the boys hair as it expands exponentially in a second solidifying into the form of a small(for dragons) red dragon.

Okay, it's doing that thing where it won't let me edit in dice rolls, but since this is just for amusement's sake, I'm going to call it a success on a Notice d6+2 due to the sensors on the Cassowary/.
As his comm unit was still tuned to the COT's frequency, Ryder hears Charlemagne's call to the group, and the other radio chatter; as he finishes getting his armor sealed up, he radios back. "Copy that. Cassowary's ready for action, though the sooner Miss Ashley gets here, the better. In the meantime, the guns'll cover the gate, at lea--HOLY JEHOSEPHAT, What the Hell? Everyone, I've got a HUGE bio-sig coming from the back side of the squire's barracks. Probably burrowed up from below--sure as hell didn't see anything that size coming over the wall!"

Have to see how the young lady would feel about bunking in here, going forward.

Nazo searches for her radio among her gear strewn wildly in the bell tower. Hah! Found it... Nope that is not a radio just my shoe. I can hear Karsk, but can’t find my radio... Frack why am I blind! Nazo keeps searching... No, a belt buckle... No a shin pad... No a bottle of Sake... Frack, no more Sake. Ah hear it is... Nazo finally grabs it and clicks the button frantically. Oh you got to be kidding me! I just changed the channel? She whispers quietly, ” Hello? No response... Wrong channel. Perhaps or perhaps Nazo finds the right channel and responds quiet agitated and frustrated, ” Understood Karsk. In the future just remember I am a raging achoholic and get pretty crazy when drunk. Right now I am in the bell tower with all my gear strewn accross it. I am having difficulty finding anything...” Nazo sighs over the comms, ” At least I was not naked. I’ll try to get ready as quickly as possible but it might take most of the night, my vision has been comprimised.”

Happily, Vik had just given himself a little "shot of B vitamin" to start the day, so he's feeling more curious than alarmed when the runty urchin transforms into a runty-but-still-wompy-yooge dragon.

"Buggering bishops, I thought for a moment you was gonna like go all chest-burstin', sorta Aliens-like," he says, eyeing the draconic interloper warily. "You're not one a them bad dragons, like Smaug, are you? I mean, Cumberbatch-voiced he sounds cool and all, but a right bastard, an' really we're all guests here like and it's rude to start in wif' the Bard and the Black Arrow bollocks 'fore anyone's even rolled out breakfast, not that we're like to get anything like a real English here, prob'ly oats and cow's milk right out the teat, but then you can't be too long off the teat yourself so maybe you ain't born rotten but just apt to turn into a greedy git over time, like. So whaddya say, you feeling peckish? I wager we could turn up a goat or somefin', just so long's you're not looking at me and licking them big scaly lips. Can't say as I'm probably safe to eat, anyways, considering what I've ingested in the past 24 hours."

Ignoring the squawking from the helmet hanging on his belt, Vik holds out a cleanish, gauntleted hand, offering to shakes ... claw, or something ... with the juvenile wyrm.

"Name's Vik. Vik Donnager, what some who would know call 'the Dick.' Welcome to, uh, well, wherever the fuck we are. The Alamo, I guess, like Mexico, or Texas or somefin'."

Charlemagne curses to himself. I knew I shouldn't have encouraged drinking in hostile territory. Charlemagne, you fool! Your troops are slack and you are the cause. Their lives are in your...what was that?! Knowing that going into battle half armored is a dangerous proposition, he slows his breathing, focusing on the task at hand. Once armored, the cyber-knight's shell hardens on his skin, and the knight's plate hums to life, powered by his inner strength. Whatever foe chooses to assail me in the dark of the night, they'll meet the full fury of the Holy Roman emperor. I'll send them to judgment before the Most High!
His twin psi-swords spring forth from his hands and he prepares to meet the new occupant of the hallway.

Haha, lets get the Altara drunk. First they don’t even invite me in to their little covenent. Then they send Charlemagne up here with a bottle of Sake... My nemisis. Then they pawn it off like oh your weird sleeping in a bell tower lets go strip you naked and toss your stuff all over so that when danger lurks you can be ill prepared... Nazo keeps looking for peices of her armor. It seems by now she has most of her weapons situated in and or on her harness for ease of storage. Where did I put the radio? All these bits and peices look the same... Wait what is Pete doing... Is he talking to someone? Someone invisible?

Ashley did her best to fit in, have fun, but it wasn't easy. After an hour or two it was just too much to deal with, and she quietly withdrew back to her bleak little 'cell' in the bleak little convent and tried not to see it as some kind of metaphor for her life, or foreshadowing of things to come. It was with those unsettling thoughts on her mind that she drifted off to sleep.

The sounds of alarms awoke her with her heart in her throat. She scrambled around, getting tangled for a moment in her blanket before finding the leg of her armor in the dark.

Thomas knew how to enjoy time with women and time with alcohol. But most of all he knew how to enjoy the two when they came together. As he stretched from bed, the noise and ring outside did not quite fit in his mind.

Thinking what he really needed was another splash of whatever he had last night, and some basic hygiene needs taken care of Thomas headed over to use the john and wash up a bit. Looking at the ladies in the room with him he was glad the night was fun. But a little disappointed he did not remember everything. The last thing clear in his head was escaping the fire in the form of a dragon and getting his stuff back from Vic.

No worries, all he needed was to wash up and go feel the others out, see how things went maybe.

Sparing a glance around after swapping names with the boy-dragon, Vik spies a flash of bare skin high up in the bell tower. Not one to miss a bit of peeping-Tommery -- Speaking of, or thinking of, rather, wonder what ol' Tommy got up to, or rather up in, of an evening last? Last I seen of 'im he was being plied by a couple of well-aged nuns, both wif' impressive whiskers ...

Letting that thought die, Vik grabs his squawking helmet from his belt and puts it on.

Activating the visual magnification, he's able to zoom in on the tower, catching a much clearer view of various soft and curvy bits that, after some prolonged study, he determines must belong to Nazo.

"Seems an inconvenient time to be running around in your starkies, if you ask me. I mean, all's fun and well, but times is you gotta wake up and act professional, like, and tuck your good-and-plenties away where they won't catch a breeze. Know what I mean?" he says to the boy-dragon, before thumbing on his radio to alert the rest of the crew.

<<Oy, uh, compadres. Rise and shine and wipe the sick off your chin. Just a little heads up if you find yourselves out of doors this fine morning, p'raps don't look up, for ol' Naz is got her mouse and biscuits out up in the belfry. All clear as day, birthday surprise, you can see everything. Really everything, 'cept maybe toes. Just want to save some embarassment, you know, looking out, so don't look up there and risk seeing ol 'Naz completely starkers, naked as a jay, wif no clothes covering her shapely woman parts. Want to spare you that, so you don't have to see it and commit it to memory, for ever and ever, only to be revisited on cold, lonely nights on sentry duty, no one for company but the knobby ol' bishop, thinking of Naz, wif her kit off. You're welcome.>>

There's a squelch of static before he adds:

<<Oh yeah, I'm thinkin' there's something bad afoot, though it ain't the dragon. I mean, there is a dragon, here, only he's a boy and seems okay for the nonce, so keep your peepers peeled for somefin' what ain't. Over and under. This is Vik. Was Vik. Er, still is Vik but signing off.>>

Hearing the burst on the radio Thomas gets up and looks out the window. Huh, Vik was right about Nazo.

Then the radio follows up with a warning of danger and Thomas jumps into his gear, no way in heel is he going to sit around naked while Chucky or his followers pick another fight with someone we would be better off avoiding. Activating the spells in his armor Thomas looks for the danger.

Charlemagne sighs. He clicks the radio. "Now, let us be chivalrous about such things. Avert your gaze lest you abandon yourself to corrupt thoughts. And let us deal with whatever may have designs on this night." His one free right hand crosses himself, banishing the thought of the naked human from his mind, and refocusing himself on the noise in the hall.

At first his head is low to the ground, like a dog expecting to be scolded, but as it becomes clear the humans rambling stream of indecipherable references is neither alarmed or threatening the wyrms head raises. When the human finishes up by introducing himself and offering his hand Barinthasheer is visibly relieved and thrilled. "I am named Barinthasheer. Dragons don't need to eat, so I promise to never eat you Mr. Vik." He walks forward and extends a claw and gently shakes the legionnaires hand. Hearing the radio chattering in the helmet he looks down at it. Your hat is talking. That is so cool."

After putting on his helmet and staring at the tower a moment the human begins to talk to Barin about the person up there. Again it mostly just confuses him but the tone of comradery pleases the boy. When it seems Vik is talking to someone else the boy ponders the heroes and their wonderful hats. If I become a hero will I get to have an awesome hat?


"I can try to help you fight the monsters Mr. Vik. They heal after I smoosh or bite or burn them but I can throw them real far. Or sit on them so they can't bite people. I can be a hero too!"

***

From her vantage in the tower, Nazo suddenly gets a large surge of magical energy from behind the convent and barracks. There is a dragon there!

The noise Charlemagne heard seemed to have moved outside of the barracks. It looked like it was Whiskey Pete who was up and heading to his trailer. Perhaps he needed another nightcap? He looked agitated, though.

Squire Reynolds and Novice Nara on the parapet still seemed more interested in making moon eyes at each other than keeping watch.

Ryder sees four more civilians coming through the trees behind the town hall, laughing a bit boisterously, while the one that had emerged from the rectory started to head home.

The commotion seemed to make Whiskey Pete even more agitated. He fumbled around in his pocket and pulled out a small device. He pressed a button and the back of his trailer beeped and unlocked.

Slowly the doors were pushed open and hunched, lithe figures climbed out. Several darted toward the gates, while the others started to spread out around the square. Finally, a much larger figure steps out of the back of the trailer, the trailer literally bouncing a little as the weight of the Samson power armor is removed.

Instructions
  • Combat! Ryder got a Black Joker, so all players get a benny and Ryder has +2 on Trait rolls and damage rolls. He can go whenever he likes, but the bad guys won initiative, so once Ryder lets me know if he is going on hold or acting, I will determine what the enemies do.
  • Here is how we will handle readiness: You all rolled for how many rounds it will take you to get armor on, etc. You may choose to join combat at any time. If you join before your readiness is up, subtract the remaining rounds from your Armor/Toughness, and your armor is not FEP.
    • Ashley: 1 round remaining
    • Barinthasheer: Ready to go.
    • Charlemagne: Ready to go
    • Karsk: 1 round remaining
    • Nazo: 2 rounds remaining
    • Ryder: Ready to go.
    • Thomas: Ready to go
    • Vik: Ready to go
  • If you have any Fatigue left over from the trip, this isn’t gone yet (you need a full night’s sleep). Same with Wounds (outside Golden Hour), unless you got them taken care of via Greater Healing.
  • Endless rules are in effect on both sides
    • If a player draws a club on initiative, or an enemy draws a joker, more enemy minions will arrive.
    • If an enemy draws a club on initiative, or a player draws a joker, reinforcements will arrive to help you.

Karsk sounds like he practically spits the word civilised out, "customs but Karsk believes this attempt at sneak attack. This why Karsk not drink strange liquids like you do."

Karsk still continues getting dressed in his armour, whilst trying to recognise the small creatures and if he'd ever tried their hearts before. Toad moans next to him.

Okay, so WV 6 is the only who might be shaken by the impact.

Damage to vehicle for hitting soft targets: None, because they aren't MDC weapons

Sure, radios are nice for direct, secure communication. But for an all-hands-on-deck approach, nothing beats a good PA system.

"Attention, residents of New Alamo. We've got Vampires and a hostile Power Armor in the courtyard, and Whiskey Pete is probably a Thrall. Time for a stake party! Also, for anyone who didn't catch the word before, the dragon--yeah, 'dragon', go figure--is apparently on our side, so watch that friendly fire, okay?"

Having dealt with the niceties, he then proceeds to test out his shiny new laser cannon, battering the Samson with a vicious barrage of light-lances that hopefully cook whoever's operating the thing before it can bring its own heavy weapons to bear.

Even as he lights up the Samson, the Aeon Cassowary is moving, getting up to speed and coming around the courtyard to get closer to the barracks. That this route takes him through a handful of the vampires doesn't really concern him much--on the other hand, it doesn't seem to concern the vamps much, either.

Yay! I get to be a hero! .. Hmm heroes protect people so I should help my new friend "They can make you do things, they tried to make me hurt myself once because their claws are too little to hurt me but I made my mind stronger and flew away. I'll make our minds strong Mr. Vik so they don't do that to us." Focusing his psionic energies Barry concentrates on bolstering both his own and the humans mental reserves.

"Now let us smoosh some tossers!" The boy dragon practically yells, leaping into the air he glides over Vik, out the end of the alley, and looks around. Seeing the vampires at the gate he mistakenly assumes they're after the teens on the walls. Blasting a cone of flame into the air as a challenge he yells "Stupid tiny monsters leave my friends alone! If you're so hungry eat me!". His booming draconic voice is deadly serious but still somehow childlike.

Round 4.1

***

Ryder raises the alarm with the PA system of the Cassowary, alerting New Alamo to the threat of vampires in its midst. Then he takes aim at whoever is in that power armor and lets loose.

Karsk recognized the hunched figures in the dark. They are wild vampires! The other figure is someone in Samson power armor. The Samson rocks and goes down at the powerful blasts from the sunlight cannon.

Then Ryder floors the throttle and rams the Mountaineer through the vampires. Three go bouncing off his hood, but seem no worse for wear. In fact, one of them back flips and lands on the hood of the Cassowary, snarling at Ryder through the windshield.

The dragon’s roar caught the attention of the vampires for a moment, but they didn’t seem too bothered and returned to their work on releasing the gate and drawbridge.

A couple of the wild vampires went racing off around the barn. Most of them swarmed onto the Cassowary, climbing onto the machine. Some struggled with the weapons pod, interfering with its movements and targeting. Others draped over the windscreen, obscuring Ryder’s view.

All Driving and Shooting rolls with the Mountaineer will be at -2.
Several of the vampires ran toward Barinthasheer. They couldn’t reach him in the air, but he felt the oppressive weights of their minds on his once more.
Barinthasheer
I need 2 Spirit rolls to oppose Puppet. You need a 4 and a 5 to avoid being taken over.
Two of the wild vampires near the gate tried to climb the walls. On succeeded, getting up next to Squire Reynolds, though the other one trying to get to Novice Nara had trouble finding purchase.

“Billy!” a voice screamed from somewhere in anguish.

Ryder felt an oppressive weight seize his mind.

He can feel the wiggling worms of impulse and illusion gnawing at his mind. The vampires look welcoming for a moment, surely if he lands and tries to talk they will be the best of friends in no time. Then he hears Nara warn Reynolds of a vampire behind him and Barry snaps out of it. Focusing on protecting the people who were nice to him helps clear his mind, turning his attention back to the wall he steels his will.

Success!

Ryder just shakes his head, violently, to get the voice to go away--fortunately, it does. It probably helped that he was annoyed at all the Leeches crawling all over the Cassowary. He shouts through the PA. "Hey, no hitchhikers!"

Holy crap, looking out Thomas sees the hoards of vampires and decides this would be a great time to be in the middle of Castle Refuge. But as those people screwed up all those opportunities the best thing he could really do is hope the vampires do not see him. Working his way to the window Thomas sees the hoard of vampires and decides maybe if they were all asleep that would be a better option.

Drawing on the power of his armor he enhances his sight and ability to use spells at distance. Then with a push of his will at the vampires clustered around the gate he mumbles. "Sleep." Watching as the Vampires fall asleep he ducks back behind the window.

Hearing the sounds of battle outside and the call identifying vampires, Charlemagne wastes little time. He bursts through the window while quickening his actions, flying straight for the largest mass of vampires seeking to open the gate. He shouts at the top of his lungs. "For His Holiness, the Pope, and Almighty God! HAVE AT YOU!" His wings speed him towards the mass. Silver nanites encase his psi-swords as he swings the blades, hewing two vampires. His follow-up swing, however, never materializes. He flies too close to the gate, and his devastating swing connects with one of the hinges instead of a vampire's head. The gate creaks as the vampires take advantage of the new hole. That...went poorly.

The first vampire struck by Charlemagne seemed to take his blow with great fortitude, but the Lyn-Srial cyber-knight pressed his blade just enough and the vampire went down.

The second vampire was asleep, thanks to Thomas, and was an easy strike for Charlemagne.

Currently there were no more active vampires around the gate, but they were still swarming Ryder in the Cassowary.

Re: 2.2 New Alamo: The After Party

Post by Ashley Logan »

The sound of yelling and weapon fire from outside convinced Ash that she had to get out there, NOW. Her armor still had some pieces missing, but it would be better than nothing.

She nearly tripped in her haste to get out the door, elbowing past frightened nuns in the hallway. Outside, in the bright lights around the gate, she saw human figures swarming over the Mountaineer, the Cassowary. Well, not human figures. Dread stuck in Ashley's throat as she got the weird wizard-tech rifle around on its sling and checked the settings. She'd tested it a few times, but still wasn't totally comfortable with it.

Magic. That's what she was down to.

The first switch went from 'cold' to 'warm.' That would make the output water. Then the volume dial went up... Ash squinted as she estimated the range, and adjusted it to something that seemed adequate.

Then she lifted the longarm to her shoulder, sighted down the barrel, and pulled the trigger.

Immediately Ash felt it pulling at her, consuming the fire inside her as if she'd been throwing massive explosions of flame. What came out however was water. A gushing freshet, as if that relatively small weapon somehow had an entire river packed into it, and was forcing it out a nozzle no wider than a little finger. By all rights the recoil should have sent Ash flying, but she felt nothing...the rifle must have taken care of that somehow.

The water curled in midair, twisting and twining into a sphere of wildly churning, sloshing moisture. And more came, and more, until that ball no bigger than Ashley's upper body must have contained a lake's worth of it. Then the rifle glowed blue and made a chuff noise, and the waterball sailed away towards the Cassowary.

When it hit, it was easy to believe there was a layer of Hell that was just water. It immediately expanded on impact, and all the pressurized water came roaring out of its confines. It was a tidal wave, a tsunami in a bottle, ripping and tearing at the ATV and vampires alike!
Rolls: Psi 8 (raise), damage 15 MD in MBT centered on Cassowary

Billy... I am weiry, I confess I do not know you. But I will not let your cry for help go unheard.

Nazo with her blades in hand, wrist blasters armed, necklace of U grenades coiled arround her neck, and staff of life adfixed to her back via a strap of tanned leather forgets her last peice of armor. She instead steps to the edge of the tower and glances from where she heard the call for help. She summons and releases her chi powers putting forth the quickning power of her celestial blade followed by her own inner chi power of flight! Then she leaps off the bell tower with her armor propelling her forward at a an astonishing distance.

Well legends say its not a good idea leap up and out of a bell tower, and looks like they are right. Nazo’s spirit guides are quite and she goes plummeting back down to the earth at the mercy of any wild vampire lookimg for some lunch.
GM, let me know how much damage Nazo takes

"Ruddy wildebeast marbles," Vik says, wondering how he went from being first to wake to being last to start frying some deaders. "Well, last one in gets the rotten worm, so's they say."

Figuring a little wake-me-up is warranted, he gives himself a shot from the Hype-Me-Up Hypo, then starts cobbling together a wire-covered mortar launcher. Moving into position, he mutters a quick prayer to St. Bernard's and pulls the trigger. There's a puff of smoke, then a giant spinning disco-ball, blazing with the light of the sun, hangs spinning in the air by the gate.

Cast Quickness, then created and used a Sunlight-Light device, centering the LBT by the gate.

***

The vampires on the Cassowary screamed in agony, thrashing on the vehicle, and melted away like wax, leaving only one clinging to the hood of the vehicle.

Nazo took a flying leap from the bell tower to get into battle, and promptly face planted with a splash in the shallow pool in front of the church.
Nazo
33 damage, that is 4 Wounds you need to soak, -2 for Exhaustion. Ouch! I’m really not trying to kill you again!
Squire Reynolds, up on the wall, quickly drew his silvered vibro-blade as he focused on his psionic powers to defend himself, but instead he screamed in agony and clutched his head.

“Rey!” Nara screamed as she saw her crush sway on his feet in front of a wild vampire. She clutched at the silver cross around her neck and held out her hand. A blast of celestial silver erupted and slammed into the wild vampire threatening Squire Reynold. The vampire staggered back a bit, shaken, its skin smoking and blistering.

One of the civilians, seeing Nazo fall, rushed over to to her. He climbed into the pool and turned her over so she wouldn’t drown, checking over her injuries. Another group of civilians rush toward the sounds of fighting, drawing weapons.

Vik threw up his ball of sunlight, and the two vampires that Charlemagne had downed immediately turned to ash. The others woke up screaming and burning, writhing in agony.

Karsk notices the commotion at the gate.
"Karsk see that they want inside. Karskwill put a stop to that.

Pity that it was vampires. No good eating on them. maybe if he killed Whiskey Pete, it might make up for it.


Assuming it is in range, Karsk reaches out with his mind and picks up the wagon (doesn't sound like its particularly big, so should be strong enough) and drops in front of the gate blocking access from the other side.

Charlemagne barely breaks his aerial pace to drive his psi-swords through his vampiric foes. It's a good thing, too, as his second in command mentally hefts Whiskey Pete's booze-filled trailer to block the gate...where Charlemagne just was! "Good thinking, Karsk! Perhaps a moment later would've been better. I was nearly crushed 'neath its bulk!" he chimes in over the radio.

Kark mentally wrenched the trailer from the big boss and moved it over to the gate, dropping it on the vampires still there -- and on Charlemagne!

Two of the vampires were caught by the trailer and squashed flat, burning away to ash, though the third managed to scramble clear.

3 wounds.
A sharp impact and sudden stop. Nazo grabs her stomach noticing a peice of metal sticking out from it. Thats the way you want it spirits? She wipes the blood oozing from her mouth with on hand and takes the offered assistance to stand with the other. Where is that four armed fella? Stick to the plan and watch his back. She tries again to leap into the air using her spiritual gifts and indeed takes off with thr aid lf her armors legs as of some kind of bounding leaky punching bag.

She lands behind Charlemagne with a squishy blood drenched slosh. Her breath is haggard, but her weapons are drawn. ”I am with you Charlegmaign... This raging drunk has your back. Lets... Lets finish them off.” The peice of metal rebarb sticking through her chest bobs up in down in agreement.

Explosions of water and light, a sword bird-man, a talking laser shooting truck, and a flying trailer. It was almost too much for his young mind to process all at once. His friend Reynolds looked mostly safe, Barinthasheer could make that out of the chaos. Maybe I should protect the other squires then crosses his mind as he looks down at the vampires who tried to put the whammy on him. Dropping to the ground between them and the doors to the monastery with his back to two of them he rapidly turns himself 180 degrees, his tail sweeping towards the pair of undead.
tail sweep both for 14 damage

His tail connects solidly with both and he ends the turn facing them before they inevitably recover. Stay. Out. Stupid. Monsters.

+3 Bennies = 9/6

Accelerating to 20"
Movement is as follows:
7" straight forward
Making a hard right turn (90 degrees; Maneuver Difficulty 0); front of truck ends up moving straight north, on a route to pass through WV 11/12, before nearly scraping the building.
The center of the truck's nose ends up pretty much directly NW of the "T" on the map, with the three-hex wide vehicle sitting right next to the building.

WV 11 & 12 have to make Agility rolls to avoid being hit; depending on precisely where it is, WV 13 might need to jump out of the way of the truck's rear fender as it slides to the side.

Driving (-2 Crew Penalty, +2 Ace, +1 Handling, +0 Maneuver, Speed Kills -2):

In addition, using the Helios Cannon on WV 14 (1 shot) & WV 19 (2 shots); Combat Ace prevents MAP, Steady Hands eliminates unstable platform

Keeping his foot on the pedal, Ryder continues to accelerate, opening up with the solar cannon in an effort to clear the last two vampires from the gate. Sadly, one of the shots goes a bit astray, lighting up the booze trailer, instead, making for a lovely bonfire in the back. Meanwhile, not stopping to mourn the lost libations, Ryder continues, almost looking like he's going to ram the building, until he makes a sharp turn just before getting into the "U" of the building's wings, and cutting straight north towards Ashley; the front of the Aeon Cassowary forces two of the wild vamps to decide between leaping for safety and becoming hood ornaments; the rear fender of the truck likewise swings towards a third vampire like a very large hammer as he completes the fishtail turn.

Over the PA, Ryder calls out, "Hey, hey, sorry about the booze folks, and Ashley, I'm coming in hot; get ready to jump in when I stop!"

Rolls
Moving as needed to get line of sight -- looks like about 6 hexes north of the big B should work, assuming Ryder moves the Mountaineer.

Round 1 Action: Drawing Magma Blaster and firing an greater entangle shot at Whiskey Pete (uses 4 PPE from the gun's 10 PPE reservoir). Activates on Shooting, -2 MAP for drawing and firing, +2 from the gun, +2 from armor mod, +2 Machine Maestro, +2 from Joker
Shooting [dice:2749pzb7]43834:0[/dice:2749pzb7] = Ace [dice:2749pzb7]43834:2[/dice:2749pzb7] + Benny of Extra Effort + Elan [dice:2749pzb7]43834:3[/dice:2749pzb7]
Wild [dice:2749pzb7]43834:1[/dice:2749pzb7]

Whiskey Pete needs to roll a 20 or better on Agility or be fully Entangled. If he doesn't get at least a 16, later attempts to escape are made at -4.

Round 2 Action:
Crafting a healing gizmo with the jolt trapping, then shooting Nazo (and anyone else who is wounded) with it to apply greater healing. -2 MAP, +2 Machine Maestro, +2 Joker
Create:
Techno-Wizardry [dice:2749pzb7]43834:4[/dice:2749pzb7] + Benny for Extra Effort + Elan [dice:2749pzb7]43834:8[/dice:2749pzb7] = Success with a raise, gizmo has 15 PPE
Wild [dice:2749pzb7]43834:5[/dice:2749pzb7]
Use:
Techno-Wizardry [dice:2749pzb7]43834:6[/dice:2749pzb7] and forgot the -2 from greater healing + Benny for Extra Effort + Elan [dice:2749pzb7]43834:7[/dice:2749pzb7]
Wild
Nazo is healed of 3 Wounds. Looks like healing caps at 2 Wounds healed, not 1 per raise. So Nazo (and anyone else nearby who is wounded) is healed of 2 Wounds.

His brain swimming in a wonderful cocktail of B12 and magically-fortified South American snow, Vik spots ol' Whiskey Pete making a run for his Big Boss.

"Oy, you tricksy wanker, mis-abusing the wondrous spirits in ways what try to incapacitate us innocent imbibers, then throw open the pearlies for gobstopping fiends and whatnot, no Thomas-ing off for you, ya git," he says, sighting down the rails of his new Magma Blaster at the treacherous purveyor of bottom-shelf booze. Although tempted to burn a hole in the coward's back, he instead opts to try out the Low-Flo Solidifier rounds, which work quite nicely -- the steaming molten lead spreads on contact, wrapping ol' Pete up in a painful net of rapidly cooling metal.

Whiskey Pete needs to roll a 20 or better on Agility or be fully Entangled. If he doesn't get at least a 16, later attempts to escape are made at -4.

Still buzzing with his veins full of go-go-juice, Vik turns his eyes toward the fight at the gate ... only to spy poor Nazo leaping all naked-like offa the belltower and doing whatever the opposite is of sticking the landing. He winces when she stands up with a bloody length of rebar sticking out between her jubblies.

"Oh, Naz, that ain't a good look," he says, trying to shield his eyes but unable to look away from the horrifying but still alluring sight of the naked warrior, blood slicking her smooth skin wherever it hasn't been torn away in the fall. "You got your kitty and biscuits all out where them vamps'll chew 'em up, and I mean it's nice biscuits and all but that bit of rusty piping sticking out just there is just not ... I mean, not that I was looking but ... an' is that your knee cap, hanging there? Tho' I didn't know you could shave there, that's something ... but really that just, I don't think you should be walking around like ... bollocks, wait a tic."

Still peaking with one eye, he grabs bits and bobs from his belt and cobbles together another Pneumatic Needler of Necessary Nursing.

"Right, so, Naz, I'm gonna have to stick you, I mean put this in you, but it's like, medicine and whatnot, so's don't go all chop-socky on me, cause of lacking written consent, but just like, lie back and relax and think of England, or the Orient or what-have-you, and no hard feelings, or I mean, maybe semi-hard but not intentional, unless that's something ... but not, like, you know, I got Charlie, so, not that she would have to ... oh buggering hell's, this might sting," he says, before launching a dart that's almost-not-quite-close-enough-to-six-inches into the soft flesh of Nazo's left butt cheek.

Nazo (and anyone else nearby who is wounded) is healed of 2 Wounds. EDIT: Plus jazz trapping for free un-Shake roll if needed.

Charlemagne, having just dodged a telekinetically wielded liquor trailer, spies another pair of vampires near some of the civilians. "Ho there! Stand and face your true adversary. Face me now!" He speeds towards the first vampire, psi-swords blazing. The first slice runs the vampire through, but the second takes the vampire at the neck. He shouts to his allies as he banks upwards, turning towards his next foe. "Call down fire on my position; immolate this wretched corpse! I'll serve you another presently!"
He flies full speed, having about-faced from his northerly direction, gaining enough altitude to see over the wall into the darkness. He scans the horizon before breaking right, giving the next wild vampire much of the same treatment as the first. "More fire here on this headless corpse!"

Nazo takes the help from Vik with a wry smile on her face, ”Not as hard as I thought, and I don’t do chop suey. Unless you are a racist Manko. For a racist I’ll chop and make suey.” She rubs her side a bit, ” I don’t really understand half the stuff you say but I know you are a hero. Thank you.” She takes a fighting pose ready to end the vampire menace.

***

Nazo dribbles tasty blood over the ground as she flies to Charlemagne. It is amazing she still lives after a fall like that, and the civilian that helped her stared in shock as the heroine seems unfazed, despite the piece of metal from the fountain sticking out of her.

Barinthashar manages to club a couple wild vampires with his tail, leaving them staggered, catching their wits.

Ryder comes roaring through with the Cassowary, ramming into the three wild vampires near Barinthasheer and tossing them around. His sunlight cannon also lanced out, vaporizing the vampire on the wall threatening Squire Reynold, and the prone vampire near the back of Whiskey Pete’s trailer. But his third shot went awry, lighting the trailer full of explosive booze on fire.

Vik comes into view in the square and pulls out a big gun, firing a net of lead webbing that catches the limping traveling salesman and wraps Whiskey Pete up tightly.

Charlemagne flew like a blur after one of the vampires, quickly cutting it down and decapitating it before flying off to give the same treatment to a second wild vampire. Along the way, he soared above the walls to take a look. With his keen sight he could make out a large group of wild vampires milling about in the darkness on the other side of the moat where the drawbridge would fall when lowered, agitated, hungry, slavering and snarling with anticipation.

The effort of moving the trailer took more effort than Karsk liked, but he quickly shook it off. He steps out right near a vampire.

As the ATV careened towards her, a wild vampire stuck to its hood, Ashley raised the magic rifle to her eye again and sighted. Say what you wanted about the thing's energy source, the sights on it were pure, good old passive light amplification gear, just like the Coalition used to make. The image in the scope was grainy and green, but she could clearly make out the thrashing undead.

With her thumb she switched modes and unleashed a torrent of water...similar to how the 'waterball' had formed, but without the magical effect to gather and compress the stream. It was basically just a magic firehose at that point, hosing down the front of the vehicle with freshets of pure water.

(Using 'water blast' from rifle, which is basically an 'ion blast' setting with the water trapping)

***

Karsk stepped out the side door of the garage barn. The remains of one vampire lay decapitated nearby, but there was still a vampire standing, though looking disoriented. Karsk flippantly tossed a blast of water at it, melting it into mud.

The vampire on the hood of the Cassowary screamed as well as Ashley doused it with water.

Whiskey Pete was cursing and sobbing as he struggled to get free of the lead netting Vik had entangled him in. Unfortunately, all he succeeded in doing is losing his balance and falling over.

One of the wild vampires that had been slammed by Barinthasheer gathered her wits again. Seeing easier prey than a dragon, she rushed toward Nazo. She hissed out words of power and the mystic felt a heavy sleepiness fall over her.
Nazo
Make a Notice roll at -2 (raise) with other penalties or fall asleep.
On the wall, Squire Reynold still stood there in horror, never having been in actual combat before.

“Reynold, we have to help them!” Nara called to her beau. She turned and fired another blast of celestial silver energy at the vampire that had just run toward Nazo. The blast vaporized the vampire.

Civilians rushed from the north side of the barn and opened fire on the vampires near Barinthasheer.

Suddenly there was a groaning of metal. The trailer that Karsk had thrown in front of the gate started to rise. And then it slammed through the gates, knocking them open and sending the drawbridge crashing down across the moat.

"I am sorry ladies, but I think the team will need my help." Thomas says as he begins stepping towards the battle he disappears from their view.

Once invisible Thomas heads over to get a better view of everything going on. Thinking to himself, how best to aid the combatants.

Reynold finally pulled himself together and gave Nara a sheepish smile. “Sorry,” he apologized. “Brainburn.”

Nara gave him a shy smile. “It’s okay. But it doesn’t look like it’s over.” She looked out into the darkness where a mass of vampires was starting to charge across the moat on the drawbridge.

“I should get down and help hold the gate,” Reynold said. “Stay up here where it’s safe.”

“And how long do you think it will stay safe?” Nara asked wryly. “I can’t heal anyone from up here.”

Reynold nodded and they both headed down the ladders. “Is anyone hurt?” Nara asked as Reynold tried to power up again, but he clutched his head again and fell against the wall with a groan.

Nara sighed as she looked at her beau. Maybe she needed another boyfriend, a competent one, like that boy they had met earlier, one of the refugees, Barry.

The civilians that had arrived in the square to help moved toward the heroes. “Looks like you handled things,” they said with gratitude, not seeing the mass of vampires beyond the wall yet. “Guess just the clean up is left.”

Seeing Nazo stumbling around, yet somehow still fighting Thomas knows she needs his help. But the risk of getting to close to a dragon has his wondering if it is worth it. Over his radio Thomas begins to talk, then realizes the warrior is not even wearing her radio. "Dammit all." He Whispers to himself as he heads towards her.

Doing Stuff
Action 1: Launch another sunlight-glitter-bomb over the wall, just on the other side of the gate. Then move toward Billy D.
Action 2: Move to Billy D., then use Repair to open up his suit before stuffing Tommy's sunlight-pebble in his mouth (-2 MAP)

"Cor, buncha barking lunar tits, is wot," Vik says, as he shoves another glitter-bomb into his Mortar of Mid-day Mirrorballs. "Come round all wakey-wakey and ruining the morning's regimen wif an argy-bargy 'cause you got an empty tummy and want a dram of the red running through us as was just trying to catch a sleep, well, how's this for a 'good-mornin'-to-you' kind of solar slap in the suck-pipe, ya chavs."

With a pull of the trigger, he launches another globe of flashing sunlight just over the wall, where it will bathe the attacking vampires in blistering solar rays.

Still running on not-quite-legal techno-magical substances, he high-steps it to the presumed vampire in the power armor, who despite being down for the count is twitching a bit much for someone truly dead.

"Little Lord Fontleroy here in his fancy iron suit, let me just loosen this for a tick ..." he says, his own armored fingers pressing and twisting until he manages to disengage the neck seal and release the helmet.

"Wakey-wakey, top 'o the mornin', ya tickle-tossing nob," he says, popping the eternal light-infused pebble Tommy had given him into the collar of the power armor before snapping the helmet back closed.

"Reckon we'll have to steam clean that one 'fore anyone can slip into it, but s'what you get for becomin' a Type A-sucking arsehole, s'what I say, eh Tom? Oy, Tommy, where in blazes you got to, man?"

Dropped another LBT of sunshine on the south side of the gate, then shoved a pebble of eternal sunshine into Billy D's power armor.

Charlemagne lands. Taking one of the silver swords in his hands, he jams it into the vampire's head. Taking wing again with his new vampire head trophy, he flies towards the gate, landing in the sphere of sunlight. He turns and faces the horde of vampires in the dark outside the shattered gate. Four swords, two silver, two silver-encased psi swords, wave in the shining sunlight. "Come! I, Charlemagne, a servant of His Holiness The Pope, and of Almighty God, challenge you to face me! I am armed with The Burden of the Unrighteous and The Shining Light. I shall lay the Burden upon you, and smite you with the Shining Light. Come! I have silvered swords and sunlight aplenty for each of you. I shall see you all headless and burned. Come, if you tire of your unlife and wish to be released from your curse. It will be my good pleasure to oblige you. Come, vermin! To ashes, I'll return you!"

***

The drawbridge creaked as Karsk started lifting it up again in an attempt to keep the wild vampires from crossing the moat into the town itself.

Nazo in a drunken rage flew to one of the vampires near Barinthasheer. The vampire, still rattled from the dragon’s attack, never saw her coming and she speared him through with the glowing celestial silver blade, turning it into dust.

Vik shot another of his light globes out over the drawbridge toward the advancing vampires and then pried the helmet off of the downed Samson and shoved a sunlight pebble inside before sealing it up.

The Samson thrashed and screeched, smoking a bit at the seams before it lay still.

“NO! I will kill you, you Cockney bastard!” came a scream of rage.

Charlemagne lands in the sunlight by the gate, shouting at the mob of vampires charging across the drawbridge. It seems to make some of them pause, but not for long. The head on his sword sizzled and ashed in the sunlight.
Charlemagne
You get +2 bonus next round against the vampires and they will need to unshake.
The vampire by the entrance to the barn, who’s head Charlemagne had taken to the gate and ashed, twitched. There was a sickening sound as the head grew back and it crawled to its feet. It looked around, into the window of the barn, and grinned.

There was a loud roar, and then Toad crashed out of the barn. The giant rhino-buffalo leapt easily over the Big Boss and charged toward the gate, swinging its dangerous claws at both Vik and Squire Reynold, though both managed to avoid the sharp claws that could gut robot armor.

Near Karsk, the head of the wild vampire body rolled to its body and seemed to magically reattach. The vampire snarled as it stood and pounced on the civilian standing next to the simvan. The civilians scream was cut short as his throat was violently ripped out by the vampire’s jaws, spraying Karsk with hot, fresh blood as the vampire eyed him next, dropping the body and stepping forward.

The remaining vampire near Barinthasheer saw much easier prey than a dragon and charged at Nazo.
Nazo
You need to beat a Fighting 3 or take 7 damage, 12 damage if he beats you with a raise (unlikely)
The mass of vampires charging on the bridge rushed through the gates. One of them attacks Novice Nara, but the young acolyte manages to dance away. Another attacks Charlemagne, who stands in his way, but he misses as well. The third makes it through the sunlight and up to Squire Reynold, but seems to disoriented by his smoking flesh to attack. The fourth manages to get through the sunlight as well and rushes at Vik, but he can’t land the blow on the techno-wizard. Two more wild vampires rush through, one getting to Vik, but also seems disoriented by the sunlight.
Instructions
  • Barinthasheer, Ashley, and Ryder are up!
  • If you have any Fatigue left over from the trip, this isn’t gone yet (you need a full night’s sleep).
  • Endless rules are in effect on both sides
    • If a player draws a club on initiative, or an enemy draws a joker, more enemy minions will arrive.
    • If an enemy draws a club on initiative, or a player draws a joker, reinforcements will arrive to help you.

14 is a Double-Raise. Ends up pointing south, with the nose hex of the truck 11 hexes north of current position.
Ryder expertly pinpoints three things--Ashley's current position, the Civilian running towards the fracas, and an inconveniently placed tree. Gunning the engine just a tad more, he drives past the Civvie and the tree, slamming the brakes HARD and gunning the wheel all the way to the right. The tail end of the Cassowary sweeps out to the left in response in a massive, screeching arc that kicks up a swarm of dust and knocks most of the leaves off of one side of the tree, before coming to a rest, pointed south, with the door flying open for Ashley.

The Trimadore gives a shout out the now-open door. "This is the last bus to Fight Town! All aboard! You'll probably want to keep your window open, so's you can shoot that watergun at the baddies; I'll get you into position for the job."

As he's reaching out to heal the frightening Demon Queller a nearby vampire rushes her and tries to engage but Nazo slips its grasp. Then Toad comes smashing out of the stables and charges Vik and Reynolds as the next wave of undead comes rushing thru the circle of sunlight. When the vampires, still smoking from their trip thru the sunlight, rush his friends he begins to feel panicky.
healing Nazo, success with 2 raises

Wild [dice:2syc8whd]44763:1[/dice:2syc8whd]
Despite his distraction the energy courses thru him, coalescing at the tip of on of his "fingers". He gently lay the finger atop Nazos head and the energy flows into her, the last of her wounds closing up, and remaining bits of metal or debris from the fountain, expelled.

With a powerful thrust of his wings the young dragon flings himself into the air towards Vik and Reynolds. "I hope you can kill this tosser Ms. Hat, I have to help my friends." he shouts back to Nazo then turns his head to roar a challenge at Toad as he flies straight at the possessed rhino-buffalo.

Nazo feels finally herself! She nods with a half smile and sweetly says something nice to Thomas. If Thomas said something important about Charlemagne being controlled by the enemy she does not acknowledge it.

Ashley jumps onto the Cassowary, but doesn't get all the way inside right away. Instead she hangs out the door and sights down the rifle towards the fallen gateway with all its vampires congregated in a nice, tight little bundle. They hadn't seen what happened to the last ones that did that...

The rifle again discharged a torrent of water, and this time the magic took hold, gathering it into a high-pressure sphere and launching it over the courtyard to explode in the midst of the undead, washing their filth away!

She then tucked into the vehicle and buttoned up the hatch behind her.

"Lets go!"

Another water Burst like before! Centered in the middle of the WVs by the gate. Only using an MBT this time to try to get it so I don't hit friendlies.

***

End of Round 5

Ryder bootlegged the Cassowary to pick up Ashley as Barinthasheer healed Nazo and then flew toward Toad. With little warning, Ashley launched another water bomb. It slammed down at the gate, engulfing four of the vampires, as well as Charlemagne and Vik.
Charlemagne and Vik
You were caught in the water blast as well, so 28 mega-damage. Should be 1 Wound for each of you to Soak.
Whiskey Pete struggled against the netting holding him, getting nowhere.

Karsk felt his body seize up, as if something had grabbed him and was trying to lift him.
Karsk
You need to make a Spirit roll TN 6 to avoid being lifted and thrown. If you fail, you will be thrown into CV4 and you will both take 11 damage and you will have to make a Psionics roll vs. 11 to maintain your own Exalted Telekinesis.
Begin Round 6

As the fight continues, more citizens of New Alamo rush toward the square to defend their home.

  • Players just edged out the bad guys and so go first.
  • Endless rules are in effect on both sides
    • If a player draws a club on initiative, or an enemy draws a joker, more enemy minions will arrive.

Charlemagne grins as the enemies of life and light charge through the gates. He readies his weapons, picking a couple of choice targets. Suddenly, a blast of water falls upon him. The water drips from his beak and wings, but he remains otherwise unhindered. "A palatable blow, for sure! These vermin didn't care for that!" He shouts back, as several vampires object violently to the shower, and then are reduced to nothing. He begins his onslaught, a flurry of violent strikes that takes the head first from one, then the other of the vampires. He ensures their bodies and heads, separate from each other, are exposed to the sun, sending them to their final rest. He calls out into the darkness again. "Yes! Please, save us the trouble of hunting you all. Come! Meet your blessed end! Take your final reward and relieve yourselves of this curse! Come into the light!"

Ryder gives a yelp of approval when Ashley blasts another set of vampires to nothingness. "Young lady, that weapon of yours is perfect for this job, gotta say--and you wield it sharp." The Trimadore nods as she jumps in. "Hang on tight!" The Aeon Cassowary practically leaps forward, covering nearly half a football field in a heartbeat. "Don't wanna light up with the Helios Cannon too much--too easy to scorch an ally, now that all the remaining Vamps have paired off."

"Ruddy baby-shite! The balls're you doin' Ash!" Vik bellows as the exploding ball of water crashes over him. "Friendly-fire's a thing even when it's wet, mate!"

Seeing a rampaging Toad heading his way, Vik clicks his heels and activates his Pumped-Up Kicks, ascending into the sky over the courtyard in a cloud of smoke (ranged attacks are -1 to hit him until the smoke dissipates). Pulling up his rifle, he activates the magic optics on his Magma Blaster and scans the area below for any hidden foes. (Notice 9 with exalted detect arcana).

"There you are, you trolloping Jezzie, tryna hide from us an' the sun wif' invisible umbrellas. Well, ol' Vik's got your number, or leastways a scope on his shooter what sees you wagging fingers like ol' Tom only lacking twig and berries."

Sighting down the barrel of his Magma Blaster, Vik looses another Low-Flo Solidifier round at the female vamp who had been lurking invisibly to the northwest. As it did with Whiskey Pete, the white-hot round expands and cools quickly, wrapping the woman in a mesh of solidified iron. (She needs to roll an 11 or better on Agility to avoid being fully entangled. If she rolls a 7 or less she's at -4 on subsequent attempts to escape.)

"Oy, not sure who can see it, but there's a vamp all invisible-like inside that bitty metal spider-web I just ejected what needs a fatal dose of the UV or H20, quick as you can."

***

Thomas rushes up and attempts to dispel the mind control on the large rhino-buffalo, but the psionic grip on the beast is too great.

As Vik leaps into the air away from Toad, the rhino-buffalo takes anothers swipe at him with his claws, but he misses.

Vik’s entangle gun wrapped up something invisible near the barn.

Karsk was thrown hard into one of the townsfolk rushing to the Legionnaire’s aid. There was the sickening crack of bone as the civilian’s head hit Karsk’s armor, and the young townsman lay still, bleeding into the dirt. Karsk was fine, but his concentration was rattled and he lost control of the bridge, which fell back across the moat with a crash, to the laughter of the vampires that started to swarm across once more.

Re: 2.2 New Alamo: The After Party

Post by Nazo »

The constant babble of her teammates made Nazo smile slight and demure. It was not the first time she had fought with allies unable to communicate and it was doubtful it would be the last. The vampire before her snarled and its fangs dripped with thick wet saliva. Its beedy black eyes looked Nazo up and down with an appraising hunger. Of course this was all lost on the Altara who could not see visual clues. But she could hear the snarl and its silivia hitting the ground. Drip... Drip... The Creature is hungry. My allies have revived my spirit, and let me join this battle in earnest. It is not my place to fight, but when I do...” She swirls arround the vampire her feet aloft the ground and her jiggly bits as Vik would say flying everywhere. Her body arcs with electricity as she moves even faster than normal. With her quickness so enhanced she brings blade down on the wild vampire at WV13 (11 hit, 25 celestial silver damage). She leaves its husk with her only known english phrase, ”Arigato mr roboto”.

Off like a flying sparrow leaping from building to building she reaches the Big Boss and makes one final flying leap crosses the all the way to WV3! She brings her celestial blade down on the wild vampire with heavy heart but furious intent. While fighting may be her last resort when it is done she has been trained to bring all her skill to bear. I do so with Sake in my heart! Perhaps this vampire was heading to the many civilians. Nazo did not so much as see the civilians at the end of the way so much as she sensed them.

Thru the anger at the threat to his friends Bari remembers the older kids daring each other to sneak into the barn and look at the beast one of the heroes rode in on. When the rage suddenly clears from Toads eyes and is followed by confusion, the young but bright dragon concludes it was, but is no longer, under vampire control. Instead he turns towards the drawbridge. Landing at its edge and digging in with his front claws he strains to pull it closed, wings flapping as his arms strain.

There were no more big gangs of vampires to wash down, but Ashley noticed a vampire that had been cut down but hadn't collapsed into dust. She frowned at the fallen creature and concentrated.

As Thomas worked on freeing Toad from the influence of the undead, the beheaded vampire lying not far from him suddenly erupted into a pillar of flames that hungrily consumed it within seconds, then winked out.

Karsk checked the fallen boy and growled

"Keep pulling up the drawbridge. Watch out for whatever we can't see attacking us."

Karsk deal with the vampires

Reaching out mentally, he created a wave from the moat, splashing over the vampires.

Round 6.2

***

Barinthasheer landed at the gate and grabbed the drawbridge. When it had come down, the vampires had swarmed onto it once more. The dragon started to lift it, allowing only four to gain the bridge, denying the other vampires access.

Ashley burned up the incapacitated vampire near the cyber-knight barracks.

Karsk reached out to wash water from the moat over the vampires on the bridge.

Squire Reynold shook off his latest bout of brain burn and stepped over to form a line in the sunlight with Charlemagne, baring his sword as he tried to power up again. His armor begins to glow with a force field and his silverd vibrosword with sunlight.

Nara moved behind Reynold and Charlemagne, ready to aid them.

The civilians continue to rush toward the gate to aid the heroes.

Toad shook his head, making a low moan in confusion. He looked around for Karsk and ambled toward his friend.

Whiskey Pete writhed on the ground, still trying to get free.

The remaining wild vampire by the barn rushed at Karsk, leaping at him, fangs and claws bared.
Karsk
You need to make an opposed Fighting roll TN 7. If you fail, take 16 damage. If this Shakes or Wounds you, make a Vigor roll vs. Fatigue.
Kark’s water catches ten vampires, melting them screaming away and clearing the bridge.

Thomas sees the invisible female vampire move toward the gate, her eyes ablaze with rage and focus.
Barinthasheer
You need to make an opposed Spirit roll TN 9. If you fail, you are Puppeted and she makes you drop the bridge on your turn (free action, no resist roll) and then back up and Tail Lash Reynald, Nara, and Charlemagne (Spirit roll to resist TN 3).

This time there are no illusions or compulsions just another mind trying to gain an iron grip on his, trying to lock him out and take control of his body. He can feel the vampire trying to force him to drop the bridge and turn on Charlemagne and the heroic young trainees. The young dragon is terrified, NO No No Nononononono! his massive muscles tense up and his tail sweeps back and forth just in front of the cyberknights, then it stops mid wind-up trembling violently. His face, which had gone vacant when the power started trying to take hold, suddenly tenses up. As does the rest of his body, becoming completely still for a sec then begins once again pulling up the gate. "NO!! I will not attack my friend!" Digging his claws deeper into the gate he wrenches it up several more feet. "After I close this I am going to find you and give you such a smooshing, then I'm gonna pop off your head and put it in the sun you stupid tosser!"

Thomas looks at how things are going and sees the vampress eyes emanating the arcane energies as she prepares to use her power again and groans to himself. Over the radio he says. "There is an invisible vampress trying to do something bad. Right where I am shooting!" He then draws his Vampire Slayer 3000 takes aim and shoots the vampires three time hoping to kill it. Once the shots are clear he runs back towards the Hotel so as not to be stepped on by a dragon or run over.

No rolls needed for a 45 degree turn or slow-down to 10". This should leave the Cassowary's frontmost hex immediately adjacent, on the diagonal, to where Thomas was standing at the top of the round.

Ryder brings the truck around in a wide, easy arc. Hearing Thomas' transmission, he points to the spot the unseen mage was aiming from. "I got the Cassowary for the moment, Ashley--go ahead and give that whole area a nice hosing!" He eases off the throttle just a smidge--ending almost exactly where Thomas had been standing as the mage gets to his new, more secure position. "Hope you skedaddled after that shooting, friend, because I'm coming through!"

Ash leans out the hatch again, sighting down the rifle's sights and spraying a thick stream of pure water over the vampire by Karsk! She was ordinarily not a great shot with guns, despite having passed Coalition basic training. Generally she was used to her powers instead. This sorcerous rifle however...between its advanced scope and the weird way it seemed to almost aim itself...it made tagging the vampire with that firehose-force stream a breeze!

***

The drawbridge crashed against the gate as Barinthasheer yanked it up again, denying access to the vampire horde gathered and howling outside the city. At least for now.

Thomas’ shots slammed into the vampire woman. She shook off the first, but the second left her screeching in pain with severe sunlight burns as she wriggled in Vik’s netting.

Karsk coalesced water from the air and threw it at the vampire attacking him. It hissed in pain, but otherwise didn’t seem much affected as it snarled at the simvan. The follow up attack from Ashley’s water gun, however, melted it into goo.

Charlemagne turns to see the last vampire inside the walls encased in one of Vik's contraptions. "May the Shining Light put an end to your curse, once and for all!" He takes wing, speeding towards the vampire puppet master. The silver blade in his hand bursts forth with sunlight. He alights, the sunlight blade hoisted high, and his psi-swords spinning with deadly intent. With surprising precision, considering the target is entirely invisible, he slices through, finding vampiric flesh and hewing it with silver-encased psi-swords. "Be burned, demon, and be unmade!" With a final swipe from the other silver blade, he removes the creature's head, watching the whole monstrosity burn in the sunlight. "By the blades of St. Michael, light will drive out this darkness."

The entangled vampiress fades into view once more as Charlemagne’s sword pierces her. She is young, beautiful, and in agony as the sunlight fire races through her veins, burning away that beauty, until there is nothing left but ashes and her armor. Vik’s metal cage goes casually rolling.

All vampires within the city are destroyed, but there is still a horde of them outside the gates, on the other side of the moat.

Whiskey Pete whimpers and sobs. “Oh, thank ya Jeebus! She’s dead an’ outta my head!” he said, no longer struggling against his bonds.
Instructions
  • All Wild Cards are defeated, so Endless ceases. There are still over 90 wild vampires out on the other side of the moat. We are out of initiative. What would you like to do? The vampires have no way currently of crossing the moat without the bridge, though there are no gates any longer, and then there is Whiskey Pete to deal with.

"Oh, top-notch poking there, Charles, you done her up right permanent-like, I'd say," Vik says, as his booster-jet trainers lower him to the ground with theatrical whooshing sounds. "Not gonna be up for a Round 2, I'd wager, though surely there's some as is waiting outside what're in need of a little sunshine slap and tickle."

Stomping through the cloud of ash that was the vampire matriarch, Vik moves to Whiskey Pete and grabs the back-stabbing purveyor of bottom-shelf spirits by the scruff of his neck.

"Oy, Peter, you pikey barstard, oozing in here and plying us all with diluted libations while setting us up for the ol' final suck, what're we to do wif you? Tempted to toss you offa wall, let them wildlings other side of the bridge have a nip, so's you better start flapping them gums, guv, if you wanna keep snuffling this clean desert Oh-Two."

Turning to his new dragon friend, Vik shakes Whiskey Pete invitingly.

"Barry, me boy, you feeling peckish? Reckon ol' Peter-Poppinjay here's a bit steeped in his wares, might taste a bit like pickled pepper, p'raps, or one a them chocolate-y cordials, wif like the fake cherry in the middle. What say you snap a little wedge offa one foot and see if you fancy it?"

Reaching down with one hand to latch the bridge into place Barinthasheer turns to face Charlemagne and Reynolds. "Wow, those glow swords are cool. Now that I am hero can I get one of those? Oh and a talking hat like Mr. Vik has! Hi Reynolds, it me Barinthasheer."

It takes Bari a second to grasp what Vik was saying, but when he does the salesmans complicance in the attack infuriates the youth. Stalking straight for the man the young dragon growls "You helped the monsters get in here? Are you dumb or really bad? Stopping with his snout a foot from the salesmans face. "I do not eat people, but I will smoosh bad ones that hurt nice people."

Charlemagne lets out a sigh, content to take a moment to catch his breath and reassess the situation. As Vik and Barinthasheer seem to have Whiskey Pete well in hand, he moves to join them. "My esteemed draconic friend, it is my hope that you need not 'smoosh' this man. We should all be looking forward, however, to a very thorough accounting of your complicity in this dastardly plot. That, I trust, will be forthcoming soon?" He peers very intently at Whiskey Pete, expecting an exuberant and and positive reply to a question with only one acceptable answer.
He inclines his ears towards the front gate, listening to the screams and snarls of a swarm of wild vampires thrashing in the dark. "But, I think it is best to postpone your full discourse until we have culled the herd, so to speak."
Collecting what members of the 101st are within earshot and/or visible, he checks the blades of his swords, and addresses his unit. "I commend you on a swift and effective victory against the marauders who assailed this safe haven. Sadly, rest is not our reward, not yet. There are many more foes on the other side of the bridge. While we may wait them out until dawn, that leaves a horde of killers and demons to steal, kill, and destroy another day in the future. Those who have the wherewithal and the reserve of strength, join me over the wall. Equipped with some of Thomas' sunstones and behind the wheel of Ryder's war wagon, I believe we may make short work of them while they are accumulated at our palisade. Ashley and Ryder, for maximum efficacy, should pilot the Cassowary. We will affix no less than four of Thomas' sunstones to the vehicle, one at each corner. Karsk, Nazo, and Barinthasheer should address the drawbridge and the moat. Barinthasheer must lower the bridge for our exit, leaving Karsk and Nazo to sweep the bridge clean should any vampires escape the illuminated vehicle. I will follow the vehicle into the morass, removing what heads present themselves. Vik and Thomas, please attend to our guest, Pete. Ensure the courtyard is clear for our return." He scans the faces of the 101st. "Are there insights I have missed, or conditions to consider before undertaking this counter-offensive?"

Thomas listens to the ridiculous plan. His eyeballs ready to pop out of his head once they begin talking about charging out into the mass. However when Charlemagne says Thomas can stay back he thinks maybe the guy is not so bad. Becoming visable next to the cyber-knight he nods. "Just be careful, with that many things could get wierd."

Turning to Pete he says. "I would love to help keep an eye on Pete here."

Nazo listens to the awesome plan too and volunteers to help Thomas watch Pete and keep an eye on things in town. ” My chi is exaughsted noble leader, I would do well to keep an eye on Pete, Thomas, and any injured civilians. Perhaps by your esteemed leave and countance Vik and I could exchange places. Pretty please?” She smirks a bit at the end. Plus I am sworn to fight demons, these guys are clearly not of that ilk.

Vik looks at Nazo and puts his hand over his heart.

"Like a knife in me beatin' heart, Naz, after all I done for you," he says, shaking his head and giving the naked demon queller an extended look of disapproval that was definitely not meant as cover for a long lingering peek at the naked warrior.

Nazo nods briefly giving Vik a bit of a show with her mostly naked body as payback for her earlier insensitive comment. But she wholeheartily agrees with the TWs thoughts, ” Yeah standing on the safe side of the moat and attacking the vampires seems a great idea. Its not like these guy are demons right? No need to jump into melee right? We need to make sure we keep our fluids on the inside.”

She pauses... Turns towards Charlemagne and says with a gentleness, ” Did you really say don’t trouble yourself? Because this whole thing is no trouble at all.” She picks up the sun stone she had dropped earlier, grabs the one she had in her pack, and holds them in her off hand sheathing her dagger. ”See you on the otherside.”
She leaps to the top of the wall with the last bit of her PPE and enhanced armor meaning to do battle with the vampire horde once the bridge is lowered.
