Rocky finds himself facing another large control station inset into the north section of wall directly in front of him. There are dead-end alcoves in the chamber around him, and a wide-open passageway behind him as he faces the control station.

Rocky takes a quick look around the room he moves to the console, and uses his Telemechanic Mental Operation to figure out how to use this machine. He looks for a black hole or some other area of space to send this ship to its doom. He tries to see how long it would take to get there. He tells Presence. “Go down the corridor and see what is going on. I need warning if something is coming.”

Action 1
Must use one action to maintain
Telemechanic Mental Operation

Action 2-3
Sees if the FLT starts the engines here, the system can be navigated to Black hole and how much time they have. ( this might be for a diversion or to see if the engines are going can they send a feedback into the engines to destroy the power balls. Or do the engines need to be off to get the explosives to the power balls )

Action 4-5
Looks to see how to access the power balls, from the Auxiliary Energy Matrix Core, see if he can send the charges to each of the power balls using the teleportation system. Can they do it from here? Or from the Auxiliary Energy Matrix Core. Or if it has to be loaded in the Auxiliary Energy Matrix Core.

Action 6-7
Teleport explosives if I can do it from here, if not go to the Auxiliary Energy Matrix Core. To attack the power balls.

John
“Just when I thought I was out… they pull me back in.” -- Michael Corleone, The Godfather: Part III

It was the perfect end to a mission. John and Marcus had gotten the incriminating evidence to the contact within Bath and the doctor said his goodbyes before flying off. All that was left was for John to return to MercTown and his comrades (presumably a simple task for one trained in the shifting arts). The promise John had made earlier about releasing his summoned allies now looms large like the proverbial elephant in the room, however, and so he honors his end of the bargain and allows the two of them to leave if they so wish.

The air elemental is gone like a puff of wind as like with all elementals it cares nothing for the affairs of mortals. The Ariel agrees to carry John back to the nexus point outside town. Once it scoops John up in its arms however it beseeches him to join his other comrades in the upcoming battle.

“The doctor’s part in this epic saga is at an end,” the spirit says, “but yours still has another chapter to be written. Those fighting the Devouring Swarm will need your strength added to theirs if they are to successfully vanquish this evil.” It takes some more cajoling, but eventually John grudgingly agrees by the time they arrive at the nexus point.

As they arrive they are greeted by a familiar figure. Seated in a folding chair underneath a nearby tree is none other than Baldr in the human guise he was using when he first addressed the group in Asgard. He looks up and smiles as the shifter approaches.

“Hail and well met, champion…” he stands up and salutes with his fist to his chest. “You have done a great deed today and thwarted an evil that beggars the imagination. I take it the ‘package’ is well on its way to its intended recipients and the good doctor has parted company with you?” He pauses. “And yet you return to join your companions even though you could have considered your mission complete.” His expression changes, and if John didn’t know better he might say that the Asgardian actually looks impressed. “You do great honor to yourself, your companions, and to your… heritage…” He acts for a moment like he wants to say more but instead shakes his head.

“Your timing is very good, actually, as I have just now sent your companions on to the enemy’s spaceship. If you want to cast any last-minute spells, draw your weapon, or anything like that, do it now. With any luck you should arrive before they’re up to their nether regions in crazed cyborgs. When you're ready just hold that pose and I’ll have you there with them quicker than a tavern girl can bat her eyelashes.”

((OOC: the Ariel has a 01-75% chance of joining John on the mission to the mothership… 1d100 = 100: 100))

The Ariel nods to John. "Sadly I cannot join you as I am needed elsewhere. I wish you success though, for the sake of billions of innocents."

When John indicates he's ready Baldur raises his hands, mutters something that even John’s translation abilities can’t follow and PRESTO -- John finds himself on board a giant starship in some sort of giant corridor (roughly 100’ wide) with a round room off to his left. From that room his impromptu teammates are springing into action against something currently out of sight, presumably a squad of Mechanoids.

Before he can act, however, a female voice behind him gets his attention. “Who are you?”

He spins around to find a tall, almost divinely-good-looking woman with chestnut hair and deep blue eyes and who is wearing a blue-and-grey costume similar to Brute’s. She is in a defensive posture but she isn’t attacking yet. Over her shoulder and a couple hundred feet away in some sort of control room is someone pouring over a console. Though it’s rather hard to make out for sure, from behind the guy looks somewhat familiar. ((OOC: John, a critical perception check would likely make him recognizeable. Also, if you can see the invisible -- which I can't see on your sheet if you can -- you should notice one of Sentinel's ectypes standing invisibly next to her.))

“I said, who are you?” The woman repeats. “Are you one of Brute and Sentinel’s friends?”

Rocky and Presence
“It’s a small world, but I wouldn’t want to have to paint it” -- Steven Wright

Presence nods and heads out of the room while Rocky tries to gain a deeper understanding of what he can accomplish with the console by psychically interfacing with it.

There does appear to be a black hole “nearby” (in galactic terms); he could possibly direct the ship there but he would have to do something to keep someone from the main FTL console from overriding his coordinates once they discovered what was going on. As it’s a backup console it doesn’t look to be able to overload the engines or access the power balls. Perhaps they could be accessed from the Auxillary Energy Matrix Core?

As with the engineering console, however, the limited emergency teleporters appear to be able to transport to the other nodes of interest on this deck.

As he works he overhears Presence conversing with an unfamiliar voice… but a voice clearly not unfamiliar to her.

Sentinel wrote:”Do not be alarmed Ms. Presence, it is I Sentinel, you cannot see me. Brute and I as well as a couple other allies, elves if you believe it, are engaging and delaying mechanoids down the way. What is your mission so we may further assist or at the very least not put it in jeopardy?”

Presence startles a bit and takes a super-quick few steps back before striking a defensive posture. “Sentinel? Is that really you? And Brute’s here too? How is that possible? We thought we were the only ones here on board with all those metal monsters…” Her tone of voice is that of excitement mixed with surprise and disbelief (after all, it’s not every day you run into someone you know on a gigantic spaceship populated by psychotic murderous cyborgs out in the middle of galactic nowhere). The momentary shock passes and the underlying skeptical doctor takes over. Clearing her throat, she changes her tone to a less emotional one. “If this is true, it’s the best news I’ve heard all day. But how do I know this isn’t some sort of Mechanoid trick? How do I know this isn’t some sort of radio broadcast inside my head, trying to get me to tip our hand as to what we’re trying to do here so they can stop us?”

She throws a glance over her shoulder. “Rocky, can you hear that ‘other voice’ in here? What does it sound like to you?”

A few seconds later, an explosion can be heard a good ways down the corridor, followed by the sounds of combat… followed by Presence’s voice once again.

“Who are you? I said, who are you? Are you one of Brute and Sentinel’s friends?”

Everybody Else (Ronith, Sentinel, Brute, Tyral)
“I got to get ready, make everything right, 'cause all my rowdy friends are coming over tonight…” -- Hank Williams, Jr.

Sentinel returns from his astral scouting and informs the group that there are other humans in the vicinity, including one of his and Brute’s teammates in the Omegas. His description of the man accompanying her sounds rather similar to that of a merc named Rocky he briefly worked alongside in Newfoundland a while back.

Sentinel also cautions them against charging out too quickly as he has a surprise or two planned for the incoming Mechanoids. Ronith takes advantage of the moment to throw out a brief strategy for a holding action. Brute nods and waits for the surprises as well.

The group of Mechanoids approach until they get about 250 or so feet from the 3-way junction of the corridors. The ball-shaped one comes to an abrupt halt, momentarily extends some sort of sensor array antenna, then quickly retracts it before rolling away to an alcove on the west side of the corridor. In response the group begins moving slightly faster, with weapons being readied.

Ectype 4 provides the explosive surprise the original Sentinel references in talking with Brute and Ronith. Casting a sleep ward on the grenades for some extra effect, he aims for the dead center of the group and hurls a grenade with the kind of accuracy that would earn him a starting role as quarterback on any NFL team he might want. Well, if the NFL were into hiring 2,000-year-old golems as quarterbacks in the first place. Even ones that could create their own backfield out of thin air. The grenade releases its spell, catching both Exterminators and the T2 Brute within its sphere of influence ((OOC: I’m being generous here as the scales of the icons to the map are way off; that corridor is literally 200’ wide so they’re not packed that tightly in there -- blame Lloyd)). The T2 Brute staggers a bit before recovering, but the two exterminators collapse to the ground. The explosive force of the grenade manages to affect all three, however, as each shows varying degrees of damage.

Tyral casts magical enhancements on Brute and Ronith, essentially turning them into humanoid buzzsaws of carnage, and stands ready to give backup with his jammer pistol. Most of his shots go wide but one strikes the sleeker of the two brutish Mechanoids and one of its large cannons sparks in a most satisfying manner.

With the grenade detonated, Ronith and Brute charge the Mechanoids. Brute reaches the group first due to his super-speed but Ronith is surprisingly fast for someone without a speed-based super ability. They are upon the Thinmen robots almost before their processors can register the fact that they’re moving -- and by then of course it’s too late. Not all of their blows land solidly on robotic parts, and the Thinmen manage to parry a few of Brute’s blows, but the inevitable end result is that the front line of the Mechanoid patrol is reduced to so much scrap metal. The doomed Thinmen to manage to get a few shots off before they’re destroyed, however they fail to do much good for the most part as only one of their shots even comes close to Ronith and only one very lucky shot lands on Brute (-40 MDC).

Ectype 2 vanishes only to reappear alongside the patrol and yank three of them into the ectype’s own little pocket of (temporary) Hell. Looking on with detached curiosity, Sentinel sees a horde of humanoids facing down his unwilling companions -- some are easily recognizable as humans, others are similar to humans but with some variation (skin color, minor facial/body feature changes, etc.), others are more akin to anthropomorphic versions of animals, and still others only have the basic overall body shape to qualify as ‘humanoid.’ They are all armed with a variety of weapons ranging from Stone Age clubs to energy weapons of all types. There is a cacophony of mechanical screeching as the Mechanoids waste no time in tearing into the horde before them. The horde, in return, is every bit as bloodthirsty as the Mechanoids. In the midst of this chaos the ectype summons another lesser supernatural minion -- another Deevil, it would seem (perhaps a subconscious choice influenced by events in the Mega-Metztla lab?). When spoken to the Deevil sneers with a wicked grin. “I think I’m going to enjoy this…” it hisses out as it plunges into the fray. It is soon lost in the symphony of destruction that is the realm of chaos. ((OOC: I’ve removed ectype #2 from the map along with the Weevil, Skimmer A and Brute T1, but will continue to update in the GM posts. When you’re ready to return to the here and now just mention it in a reply))

Ectype 3 vanishes from sight and goes to confab with his fellow speedster Omega, with the results posted above.

Ectypes 5 and 6 act in unison to unleash a barrage of mystical energy upon the Mechanoids. Their targets, the fighter jet insects, zig and zag with an agility that rivals their own and avoid some of the magical blasts but not all as the barrages begin to batter their wings and bodies.

As for their part, the remaining Mechanoids open fire on the intruders they can see -- and they bring a lot of firepower to the yard.

The ostrich-like Exterminators all open fire on Ronith, with two shots missing outright and two more coming dangerously close before the cyber-knight deftly dances out of their way, before falling over ‘asleep.’

One of the brutish ones at the back aims a triple-barrel cannon at the group and blasts away a few times before disappearing into Ectype #2’s dimensional trap, striking Tyral (-20 MDC) and very nearly striking Brute and Ectype #4. The other, sleeker brutish Mechanoid fires what appears to be a larger, beefier version of the Thinmen’s energy rifles landing two more shots on Brute (-40 MDC; be thankful, one was a nat 20 but damage was bare minimum), one on Ectype #4 (-30 MDC), and one on Ronith (-30 MDC).

The skimmer along the western edge of the patrol (Skimmer A) gets three shots off with its guns before being dragged off into the Realm of Chaos along with the rolling ball-looking robot. The first blast very nearly hits Ectype #4 (if golems had hair it would have been singed), the second singes slightly more than just Brute’s hair (-11 MDC and his Armor of Ithan spell fizzles out) and the third comes close to Ectype #5 but the golem is of course more nimble than one might expect from an animated terracotta statue and the blast only singes a panel on the wall behind him. The other skimmer follows suit, landing two twin blasts on a very surprised invisible Tyral (-30 MDC) and what would have been a very solid twin blast on Brute had he not juked out of the way while Ectype #6 avoids another twin blast just as easily as Ectype #5 did.

However, the most powerful barrage comes from the unfamiliar fighter jet/insect Mechanoids as each one opens fire with a pair of twin-barrel cannons housed in articulated hardpoints underneath the ‘tail.’ Most of the shots target Ronith and Brute -- while both do an impressive job of weaving, ducking, dodging and general acting evasively, there are just too many shots and several manage to land solidly on both (-150 MDC Brute, -120 MDC Ronith and both their AoI spells fizzle out). However, one blast manages to solidly hit Tyral (-50 MDC) and very nearly singes Ectype #6’s non-existent hair.

Tale of the Tape -- Round 1:

Tyral: AoI is at -100 MDC
Brute: AoI is destroyed
Ronith: AoI is destroyed
Ectype #4: -30 MDC

Rocky is working along at the console
Presence is questioning an invisible Ectype #3 and a late-arriving John

All three Thinmen are destroyed
Both Mechanoid Exterminators are damaged and slumped over ‘sleeping’
Mechanoid Weevil, Skimmer A and Brute T1 are trapped in Ectype #2’s Realm of Chaos
Brute T2 is damaged
Both Wasps are slightly damaged
Skimmer B is the only Mechanoid undamaged

What are you doing?

(Gents, for this next round please note any effects on your characters like the enhanced agility and/or re-cast AoI spells -- I very nearly missed one dodge where the agility bonus made a difference and that would have resulted in Brute’s AoI going down prior to the Wasp attacks and landing him 150MD in the hole)

(Also, Ectypes #5 and #6 should have more damage than they did have but due to ties going to the defender they narrowly avoided getting hit)

Butcher's Bill
Presence: N-F50A Superheavy Force Field popped; NE-BA-26: Main Body destroyed, left arm armor destroyed, -38 to helmet ; -30 to personal M.D.C.
Rocky: -33 I.S.P.; NE-BA-40: -16 to left leg, -14 to helmet, force field is gone, Main Body is destroyed; Psychic Body Field: 100 M.D.C.

Back on Earth
Asshole, John fumes as the Ariel winks out of existence. Balder's words just increase his pique. My heritage, he wonders as he casts a spell to encase himself in a shimmering, translucent suit of armor. He mystically enhances his speed and agility as the thoughts roll through his head. What heritage? I'm the son of a librarian. A single mother. Who knows who my father was. Probably died horribly the day I was born. John casts a forth spell to protect himself from energy blasts, I'm nobody in the grand scheme of things. Just a guy that lived longer than he had a right to. Whoopdee-fuckin'-do. That was hardly the whole of it, of course, but he was getting a bit tired of fantastically powerful beings sending him all over the megaverse while they sat on their all powerful behinds. The final spell makes him invisible to sensor systems and with his protections finished he draws his swords and waits for the Asgardian to send him away. I'm gonna die.

The Miles Long StarShip Full of Insane, Murderous, Psychic Cyborgs (TMLSSFIMPC)
Between the Fleet Feet incantation and the boost to his agility John actually has already taken half a dozen steps towards the fighting before his brain registers Presence's, well, presence, and her words. Skidding to a halt, literally, John looks the young woman up and down (Save vs Awe Factor 15: 1d20+12 = 27: 15). He almost says 'I can be whoever you want me to be' but instead simply gives his name, "I'm John. Who're you? You know Brute and Sentinel too? You're wearing one of their uniforms. Are you a superhero like them?" The words spill out of him about 50% faster than usual. Almost just one long string of blab but there are actual noticeable pauses between the words, just brief ones.

Craning his neck around he spots the man bent over the console, "Hey Rocky, is that you? How did you get out here? Did Halfrost teleport you from New Nielfheim too?" Again the words practically tumble out of his mouth. He seems to be unaware of the invisible Sentinel, at least until he speaks or reveals himself.

If there are any particularly jarring sounds from the battle the mage says, "Excuse me," even if it's in the middle of speaking with someone and he dashes off towards the noise at full speed (~45 mph).

Sentinel wrote:”Mr. Jackson, Presence is up the way ahead and to the right about 50 meters. I thought you would care to know.

Brute smiles. So there are other Omegas in the mix. He feels a brief swell of pride in his team, before getting back to work. He gladly accepts the spells cast by Sentinel and Tyral, before setting himself to the task of making a mess. "A fella could get used to these spells now." He smiles, nodding at Sentinel. If we survive this, we'll have just... a TON of new strategies to bring home to the Omegas, it seems.

Also knowledge that the gods are real.

Once the spells are cast, Brute lays the smack down on their mechanical opponents, grinning with sadistic glee as their metallic hides crumple under his onslaught. The crunch of metal under each of his crushing blows gives him a dark satisfaction, and he momentarily remembers an old arcade game he played as a young child, one of those fighting games, but in one bonus stage it's you vs. a car and you have to destroy it as fast as you can. It was an ancient game, with terrible graphics compared to the newer holo-games, but he found it charming, and something about the purposeless destruction gave some dark part of him joy. This fight, he thought, is a lot like that... but so much more satisfying. When we get home... we gotta find some robots to practice on.

Spell tracker

As the combat progresses, Brute's antennae gather scents and air currents and other environmental information to supplement his combat prowess.

Track by scent 46% 1d100 = 12: 12 (SUCCESS)

Identify temperature (within 2 degrees) 96% 1d100 = 28: 28 (SUCCESS)
Identify wind direction and speed 86% 1d100 = 12: 12 (SUCCESS)

Brute watches in satisfaction as the front-line thinmen go down, and as the array of mechanoids disappear from combat, due to Sentinel's spell. Oh... yeah. We got a TON of new tactics for the Omegas... Relishing his again-heightened abilities, Brute pours himself into the fight, serving up haymakers against the flying opponents (trusting that the ceiling is low enough, and he is tall enough, to reach them without jumping - but he will if he has to), but if the others get in his way he will gladly put them down as well.

Rocky tries to do as much as he can, before he teleports any in his party to Auxiliary Energy Matrix Core. Rocky hears Presence talking to what he thinks one or two people though. He responds to Presence, “I hear you and one or two others, they aren’t Mechanoids. Mechanoids shoot to kill us, they don’t talk Humans to death.” Rocky continues, “I’m getting ready to Teleport us to the south of here. If they are friendly and need a lift that is where we should all be. Kill the rest or delay them. I hope they brought an exit plan.”

John
Craning his neck around he spots the man bent over the console, "Hey Rocky, is that you? How did you get out here? Did Halfrost teleport you from New Nielfheim too?" Again, the words practically tumble out of his mouth. He seems to be unaware of the invisible Sentinel, at least until he speaks or reveals himself.

Rocky smiles a bit and replies, “Glad to hear from you, John, join us quickly, Times a wasting.”

Rocky teleports all that join him south to Auxiliary Energy Matrix Core.
Hopefully he still has some actions left to access to Auxiliary Energy Matrix Core.
He tries to use the teleport system to distribute the Armed explosives to the power balls quickly via the energy Matrix core. Or if there is a manual way he will use that and send the explosives to the power balls.

John smiles as his suspicion about the man at the console is confirmed, "Just give me a minute." He jogs forward into the round room with Birger and Sentinel and reaches up for the transmit button on his radio. "Hey it's John. Withdraw back towards Birger. There's a teleporter we can use to hook up with the other team. I'll provide covering fire." Sheathing his swords he swings the rifle around on it's sling and begins to fire at the airborne mechanoids.

Brute smiles on hearing his new friend's voice. He taps his radio, and transmits while fighting. "Hey John! Good to hear your voice - wasn't sure I'd ever see you again. Pulling back right now might be a tetch difficult - we'd just draw Mechanoids your way. Let us finish 'em up first and then we'll pull back once the immediate threat is neutralized."

Turning to Ronith, he says "Unless you want everyone else to pull back now - I can stay here and try to hold the corridor."

If Ronith orders the pull back, Brute will withdraw last, hoping to draw enemy attacks away from his teammates. Once everyone else has pulled back, Brute will follow.

Ronith considers the possibility, then shakes his head. I am unlikely to have the technical acumen to be helpful in any attempt to disable alien technology. Brute is right, we would only draw the Mechanoids down on those we wish to aid. Aloud, he says "No- we can win this. We destroy these fiends and then pull back to the others at top speed."

All too aware of the damage inflicted on his magical protection by the wasps, Ronith decides that they are now the primary threat to be neutralized. Without further ado, the cyber-knight shifts targets and looks to engage them on full offense. He considers his normal tactic of leaping strikes, but quickly realizes that the height of the corridors coupled with the Wasps' maneuverability will make that challenging even for him. The cyber-knight needs to even the scales.

Mighty Sleipnir. I require your aid. As the horse materializes, Ronith leaps atop its back (both swords still unsheathed), and moves to attack the Wasps in the air.

Sentinel stands with a hand behind his back casually watching the combat unfold appearing unphased if it were not for a slight flinch as a barrage of energy blasts streak past his ectypes, but not before peppering Sir Ronith, Brute and Tyral in front.

Very dangerous. Impressive. he thinks before commanding his ectypes to defend against the attacks.

”Counter those fliers.” he says matter of fact. It is likely they already thought the same thing being a part of him and of one mind. I wonder if we would have time to examine them further. he wonders casting a spell to examine the mechanoids.

Range: Up to a 100 ft. radius around the spell caster.
Duration: 1 min/lvl.
Saving Throw: -3 to save.
P.P.E.: 70
The spell caster can magically plunge himself and his enemies or all people within a 100 foot (30.5 m) radius (with the mage at the center) into a strange dimension known as the Realm of Chaos. Practitioners of magic believe this nightmarish realm is a frightful kingdom someplace in the Astral Plane. The general surroundings mimic the appearance of those in which the people just left, only they will seem somehow unnatural and empty (no strangers, animals, insects, etc.); clearly a copy. Only the spell caster is unaffected by what happens next.
Each character taken to the realm will experience his or her most hated andlor feared enemy or rival. In some cases, where a group of people are highly motivated or afraid of the same thing, one major villain/foe will confront all or most of the group (including at least one henchman per character). This deadly foe can be an antagonist the character(s) faced in the past or plan (or fear) to face in the present or future
(except the spell caster). Additionally, it can be a foe they have slain in the past. In such a case, they will claim to have returned to crave their revenge. These fearsome opponents all have revenge and murder on their minds and attack immediately. All these villains and monsters appear to have their normal powers, skills and weaponry. They are not illusions (presumably mental creations of the Astral Plane unwittingly magically created and fueled by the very people who fear or hate of them). Thus, they can be destroyed through combat.
Since the spell caster who brought everybody to the Realm of Chaos is not affected, he can step back and enjoy the show or join in the battle to destroy his enemies.
The only way to escape the Realm of Chaos is to wait for the spell duration to elapse, to kill the mage who cast the spell or to force him to take them back, the natural world. Note: The spell caster is central to this dimensional spell. He cannot leave the Realm on his own. When he leaves, everybody he brought with him in the first place comes with him. The magical enemies and fears are not the genuine article and cannot he carried back to the real world.

The Deevil sneers with a wicked grin. “I think I’m going to enjoy this…” it hisses out as it plunges into the fray. It is soon lost in the symphony of destruction that is the realm of chaos. ((OOC: I’ve removed ectype #2 from the map along with the Weevil, Skimmer A and Brute T1, but will continue to update in the GM posts. When you’re ready to return to the here and now just mention it in a reply))

Clearing her throat, she changes her tone to a less emotional one. “If this is true, it’s the best news I’ve heard all day. But how do I know this isn’t some sort of Mechanoid trick? How do I know this isn’t some sort of radio broadcast inside my head, trying to get me to tip our hand as to what we’re trying to do here so they can stop us?”

She throws a glance over her shoulder. “Rocky, can you hear that ‘other voice’ in here? What does it sound like to you?”

A few seconds later, an explosion can be heard a good ways down the corridor, followed by the sounds of combat… followed by Presence’s voice once again.

“Who are you? I said, who are you? Are you one of Brute and Sentinel’s friends?”

Turning where the voice came from, Ahh, Lord John. he thinks as the god speeds past. ”Ms. Presence, it is surely I, though we only met briefly your beauty is still unequaled.” he compliments bowing unseen. ”That… was Lord John on his way to help Brute.” Sentinel says to Presence commenting on the passing godling.

The ectype watches as the impromptu grenade lands with a resounding pop. Wonderful, I had hopes that would work. he thinks just now considering what could have happened if it armed early and somehow hit an ally.

He hold the remaining grenade in hand gently rolling it in consideration of how to use it. He wisely holds onto it and waits watching as a blast narrowly is sidestepped by him that instead peppers Tyral right behind him. ”Oops. My apologies Lord Oslarelar.” Sentinel apologizes.

The ectype turns to cast Barrage on the flying wasps after seeing the devastation they caused still watching for an opportunity to use the remaining grenade.

[One remaining: 40mm grenades arm in about 12-14 rotations which is part of a safety feature. Average football RPM is 600 or 10 per second.

P.P.E.: 15
This spell unleashes a succession of force blasts lo batter its intended target like a swarm of tiny comets striking one after the other. Each energy blast is visible, about the size of a softball with a vapor trail, and fast moving. Once unleashed against a target, the “barrage” continues until all blasts are used up. Even if the victim runs, flies up, or dives for cover, the barrage will follow him like tiny guided missiles.
However, because the blast pulses are reasonably large and visible, the character can try to dodge or parry them with a weapon. A successful dodge means the magical blast misses and dispels. A successful parry means it is batted away and dispels on impact. Of course, the down side is that the barrage of magic force will either strike, injure and distract the victim, or will cause him to spend his time and combat actions trying to defend against the attack! Either way, the character is distracted and injured.
In addition to taking damage (each blast that hits does two M.D.), the victim is distracted from events and activity around him (focused on the pounding attack) and is -3 to defend against any other attack leveled at him during the barrage. Worse, even if the character stands his place and takes the pummeling of force, he loses two melee attacks/actions, because he cannot take any offensive action (only parry and dodge) while being hammered by the barrage!

Targeted Deflection (Level 6) Federation of Magic pg 114

OOC Comments

Range: Effective targeting deflection is 500 feet +50 ft./lvl. Trying to hit a target beyond this range is -1 to strike per every additional 100 ft. This spell can only be cast on the sorcerer himself,
Duration: One melee/lvl
Saving Throw: Dodge
Limitation: Energy attacks only, but as Deflect spell for all other.
P.P.E.: 15
Targeted Deflection is a more advanced form of the Deflect spell. After invoking this magic, the mage can magically parry energy attack/blasts with his arms and hands (a small field of energy momentarily appears around the hands and forearms). Best of all, he can deflect them in such a way that the attack is directed back at its source! Unless the attacker dodges, he takes full damage from his own attack and the mage takes none! To successfully return the attack to its source, the mage rolls to parry with a bonus of +3 (in addition to any P.P. and/or Targeting skill bonuses). A successful parry will block and deflect the attack harmlessly away. Any roll above a 13 will bounce the blast back at the attacker. The attacker can try to dodge the bounce back energy blast, but does so without bonuses and must match or beat the mage’s parry roll. A roll by the mage between 5-13 simply deflects the attack out of harm’s way, a roll of 1-4 means a fumbled deflection and the blast hits the mage without it being deflected.
The mage can also try to deflect the blast at a different target, but does so without any bonuses and needs a 16 or higher to strike. Note: Only energy blasts, including magical energy, can be deflected back at the attacker or at others. However, the mage can parry and deflect projectiles harmlessly away the same as the Deflect spell.

Deflect (Reference for Targeted Deflection above)
This spell allows the spell caster to attempt to magically parry and deflect incoming ranged-weapon attacks such as arrows, bullets, lasers, particle beams, rail guns, tire balls, called lightning, etc. The caster gets to roll a normal 20 sided die +4, for his or her parry (plus any P.P. attribute bonus; other parry bonuses do not apply). If successful, the attack is deflected by a small energy field, and harmlessly hits the ground 1D4x10 yard/meters away. Such a deflection may hit an ally or innocent bystander if used in a crowded or heavily occupied area.
This spell can also deflect missiles, even volleys, but the spell caster might get caught in the blast radius and innocent bystanders are likely to get hurt. When missiles or powerful energy blasts (those that inflict 1D4x10M .D. or more damage) are deflected. the character must roll a 20 sided die again, but without benefit of a bonus, to see whether or not the attack is deflected away without harm to others, or whether it strikes an innocent bystander. A roll of 1-4 means the attack is deflected into the ally nearest the mage! A roll of 5-8 means it hits an innocent bystander. A roll of 9 or higher means the attack is deflected without harm to others, unless the area is densely populated or crowded, then innocents are almost certain to be injured. Area affect attacks like exploding rockets. missiles, and grenades, or rail gun bursts may strike and injure or kill dozens of people; G.M.s should use their discretion in such determinations. No, the spell caster cannot accurately deflect the attack into a specific enemy target or location.

Targeted Deflection is a more advanced form of the Deflect spell. After invoking this magic, the mage can magically parry energy attack/blasts with his arms and hands (a small field of energy momentarily appears around the hands and forearms). Best of all, he can deflect them in such a way that the attack is directed back at its source! Unless the attacker dodges, he takes full damage from his own attack and the mage takes none! To successfully return the attack to its source, the mage rolls to parry with a bonus of +3 (in addition to any P.P. and/or Targeting skill bonuses). A successful parry will block and deflect the attack harmlessly away. Any roll above a 13 will bounce the blast back at the attacker. The attacker can try to dodge the bounce back energy blast, but does so without bonuses and must match or beat the mage’s parry roll. A roll by the mage between 5-13 simply deflects the attack out of harm’s way, a roll of 1-4 means a fumbled deflection and the blast hits the mage without it being deflected.
The mage can also try to deflect the blast at a different target, but does so without any bonuses and needs a 16 or higher to strike. Note: Only energy blasts, including magical energy, can be deflected back at the attacker or at others. However, the mage can parry and deflect projectiles harmlessly away the same as the Deflect spell.

Deflect (Reference for Targeted Deflection above)
This spell allows the spell caster to attempt to magically parry and deflect incoming ranged-weapon attacks such as arrows, bullets, lasers, particle beams, rail guns, tire balls, called lightning, etc. The caster gets to roll a normal 20 sided die +4, for his or her parry (plus any P.P. attribute bonus; other parry bonuses do not apply). If successful, the attack is deflected by a small energy field, and harmlessly hits the ground 1D4x10 yard/meters away. Such a deflection may hit an ally or innocent bystander if used in a crowded or heavily occupied area.
This spell can also deflect missiles, even volleys, but the spell caster might get caught in the blast radius and innocent bystanders are likely to get hurt. When missiles or powerful energy blasts (those that inflict 1D4x10M .D. or more damage) are deflected. the character must roll a 20 sided die again, but without benefit of a bonus, to see whether or not the attack is deflected away without harm to others, or whether it strikes an innocent bystander. A roll of 1-4 means the attack is deflected into the ally nearest the mage! A roll of 5-8 means it hits an innocent bystander. A roll of 9 or higher means the attack is deflected without harm to others, unless the area is densely populated or crowded, then innocents are almost certain to be injured. Area affect attacks like exploding rockets. missiles, and grenades, or rail gun bursts may strike and injure or kill dozens of people; G.M.s should use their discretion in such determinations. No, the spell caster cannot accurately deflect the attack into a specific enemy target or location.

Hello, I must be going…

John wrote:"I'm John. Who're you? You know Brute and Sentinel too? You're wearing one of their uniforms. Are you a superhero like them?" The words spill out of him about 50% faster than usual. Almost just one long string of blab but there are actual noticeable pauses between the words, just brief ones.

Craning his neck around he spots the man bent over the console, "Hey Rocky, is that you? How did you get out here? Did Halfrost teleport you from New Nielfheim too?" Again the words practically tumble out of his mouth. He seems to be unaware of the invisible Sentinel, at least until he speaks or reveals himself.

Rocky confirms Presence isn’t hallucinating and exchanges a brief greeting with John while working on the console. As he begins prepping the teleportation a stranger runs up behind him holding a cube in one hand and a sword hilt in the other. “Excuse me, Rocky was it? The name’s Birger. No time to explain, but we’ve been sent to lend a hand. Show me how to work the teleportation controls and we’ll follow once we’ve mopped up here.”

As Rocky gives his new friend a crash course at the nav console (pun very much intended), the high-speed Omegas reunion continues.

Sentinel wrote:”Ms. Presence, it is surely I, though we only met briefly your beauty is still unequaled.” he compliments bowing unseen. ”That… was Lord John on his way to help Brute.” Sentinel says to Presence commenting on the passing godling.

”Is there anything I could assist you with?” Sentinel asks looking around and at the back of the mysterious man John called Rocky.

Presence smiles slightly and relaxes her posture a bit. “John, eh? Name’s Presence. It’s a pleasure. Yeah, we’re all Omegas from Century Station. Heck of a place but it kinda pales in comparison to what I’ve seen over the past few days.”

After John runs off she turns to Sentinel’s Ectype -- or rather, where his voice seems to be coming from. “You guys want to assist? Keep those metal monsters off our backs and follow us when you can.” She nods in Rocky’s direction. “Looks like another one of your friends is learning how to work the teleporters. Hope he’s a quick study.” With that, she dashes back to Rocky’s side. “Alright, Rocky, if you’ve got him up to speed let’s go.” With a confirming nod from Birger Rocky activates the transporters… with no result.

Meanwhile, in the Realm of Chaos…

Ectype #2 continues to observe with impunity as the Mechanoids he trapped within his pocket dimensional cell slug it out with their own fabricated demons (and an imported Deevil). The Weevil is the first to succumb to the manifested humanoid horde as it lacks weapons and isn’t among the more durable Mechanoid constructs to begin with. The other two -- the skimmer and the brute -- are getting heavily damaged (the skimmer more so, it appears to be barely hanging on) but are doing their fair share of damage in return.

Meanwhile, in another chaotic realm…

Ectype #4 utters a word of apology to Tyral before uttering barrage spell incantations on the Wasps. The Wasps are every bit as nimble as they look, and successfully dodge several of the magical blasts but there are too many for them to dodge completely and some hit their marks.

Ectypes #5 and #6 cast deflection spells upon themselves and supply both Brute and Ronith with fresh armor spells -- arguably even better ones than had been cast on them before.

John cuts short the impromptu reunion and charges into battle with his newly-acquired plasma rifle at the ready. He manages to get off a couple shots at the closest of flying Mechanoids, solidly striking Wasp A and following up with a bolt of magical lightning. Smoke begins to pour from holes blasted in its chassis and its flight is becoming somewhat erratic.

The other (and much less heavily damaged) Wasp opens fire with its underslung cannons. The first blast goes in John’s general direction but the demigod is able to nimbly sidestep the attack with ease. The next two lance out at Brute, and while the first is equally nimbly avoided the second grazes his newly-applied magical armor ((-30 MDC)) although the blast looked like it should have done a lot more damage than it did. The last blast comes close to striking Ectype #5, but the terracotta warrior shifts to the side and the blast impacts against a bulkhead behind him.

The “sleeker Brute” Mechanoid opens fire with its remaining functional plasma cannon. Two blasts towards Ronith, with one failing to even come close but one manages to land on his new magical armor ((-15 MDC)). Two more hurtle towards Brute, but they are easily avoided as well. The final blast manages to land a glancing blow on Ectype #5 ((-10 MDC)).

Speaking of Ronith, the Cyber-Knight decides to call in some divine(ish) assistance and summons the mythical mount of the All-Father. The sight of the Lord of Granite Hall charging in on the back of Sleipnir with both blades flashing is one worth of the epic sagas the Norse are famous for -- and not without dramatic effect to accompany it. The Wasps are so distracted by the magical barrages that they are easy prey, with Wasp A practically disintegrating in mid-air and Wasp B cut to ribbons shortly thereafter. ((OOC: Note to self -- never stand in front of Frostfang))

Tyral decides that the wave of the future is decidedly NOT for firearms and falls back on what he finds familiar -- a magical staff. Its bolts of lightning arc out and strike the “sleeker Brute” solidly, causing it to shudder as sparks fly out from in between its singed armor plates.
Seeing the fliers are being well and truly decimated by Ronith on his flying magic horse, Brute turns his attention to the lone active ground-pounder -- the “sleeker Brute” that’s already been hammered pretty well by Tyral’s lightning staff. He charges in at blinding speed, lashing out with claws, crystal and “SERIOUS RESULTS (tm).” Brute’s mechanical playmate is no slowpoke, to be sure, and manages to parry some of his punches, but there are few things on board this ship that can withstand the crystal fist for long as one, two, then three punches with it strike exposed areas on the Mechanoid’s body. The third vital punch results in his fist going clean through the chassis and the act of pulling it out rends the cyborg monster in two. Its wreckage clatters to the deck along with those of the Wasps.

Incredibly enough, the one Mechanoid that doesn’t seem to have even been scratched -- the remaining Skimmer -- blasts away with its built-in cannons. The first blast strikes Tyral, but his magically-protected form sheds the energy as a freshly-waxed suit of armor might shed raindrops. Three more reach out into John’s general direction, with one managing to actually land on the demigod, but he is protected by the same magic spell as Tyral and so achieves the same results. The final blast comes close to Brute but not close enough to actually scratch his armor.

Meanwhile, the two Exterminators start to stir… as if their magically-induced sleep is starting to wear off.

Tale of the tape -- Round 2:

Tyral: AoI is at -100 MDC
Brute: Invincible Armor is -30 MDC
Ronith: Invincible Armor is -15 MDC
Ectype #4: -30 MDC
Ectype #5: -10 MDC
Presence: N-F50A Superheavy Force Field popped; NE-BA-26: Main Body destroyed, left arm armor destroyed, -38 to helmet ; -30 to personal M.D.C.
Rocky: -33 I.S.P.; NE-BA-40: -16 to left leg, -14 to helmet, force field is gone, Main Body is destroyed; Psychic Body Field: 100 M.D.C.

The ‘sleeping’ Exterminators are beginning to stir
Skimmer B is undamaged
All other Mechanoids are destroyed

Spell tracker

Hemmed in as he is by the awakening Exterminators and the skimmer, Brute presses the attack. He focuses first on the Exterminators, hoping to take them completely out of the fight before they fully rouse. When or if both go down he switches focus to the Skimmer. Just a few left... have to make time for the others to withdraw. "Almost done here, Ronith... just a couple more."

Brute hammers away at the Exterminators, parrying whatever resistance they offer and depending on the motion detecting ability of his antennae to alert him if the skimmer reorients to target him, so he can dodge. If both Exterminators go down, Brute will leap up to the skimmer (sacrificing an attack if necessary), and attempt to ruin it's day.

If (when) the last Mechanoids are defeated, Ronith will rein Sleipnir in on the ground and survey the immediate area briefly. "We link up to the others. Brute and I will cover your retreats- go!" Remaining in the saddle, Ronith will work with Brute to screen the team's rear from any Mechanoid reinforcements while moving towards Rocky and the others. Should any of the Mechanoids trapped within Sentinel's realm of chaos reappear, he will waste no time in dispatching them.

John closes his fist at Skimmer B as he finishes his incantation sending another bolt of lighting arcing from nowhere to the remaining flyer. Seeing Ronith has that department well in hand from the back of Odin's steed John drops his rifle, letting it swing behind him on its sling, and draws the glowing blade of Baldur from the sheath on his hip. The Exterminator's are stirring, I need to help Brute, he reasons as he launches himself towards the fray. Of course deep down inside John knows nothing could be further from the truth. Brute needs his help like the demigod needed a second pair of arms but how often does one get the chance to swing a god's sword in battle?

Rocky looks at the Stranger

a stranger runs up behind him holding a cube in one hand and a sword hilt in the other. “Excuse me, Rocky was it? The name’s Birger. No time to explain, but we’ve been sent to lend a hand. Show me how to work the teleportation controls and we’ll follow once we’ve mopped up here.”

Presence arrives and Rocky gets ready to activate the teleport
“Alright, Rocky, if you’ve got him up to speed let’s go.” With a confirming nod from Birger Rocky activates the transporters… with no result.

Rocky is schocked, as he moves south,
"I think they shut it down after we got here. Here is a map of the floor we are on. All need to get there. Can we get through the battle south of there? My armor is torn up and I just have my force field to protect me. If anyone has something to help me I’ll take it. Tell everyone to move south and then take a left. Presence make sure the path is clear to them.”

Rocky uses his rings ability Astral Hole to move south fast making sure it is safe. He sees John taking out one of the Wasp. He pulls out the phase sword and shoves it into the flyer to insure the creature inside it is dead. He continues to use John and the others as meat shields.

Sentinel stands with a hand still behind his back assessing the situation and feels apprehension from his ectype speaking with Presence. I don’t think there is much time left… Sentinel thinks intuitively having had 2000 years to learn the nuances of sensing his other selves feelings. The other ectypes glanced back having felt it too.

He watches his ectypes continue to dance around the mechanoids attacks with the orbs of energy also weaving and bobbing around their heads like glutted fireflies.

”The orbs!” he shouts to his ectypes having forgotten them and surprisingly so since they floated freely around his ectypes heads. ”Pin them down and Annihilate them!” he commands knowing they know what he knows.

Recently having used the spell of destruction Sentinel knew it took a measurable amount of concentration to pull off and so sped himself up to hopefully making as small as possible the window of opportunity for the mechanoids to disrupt.

Sentinel begins casting on himself magic to speed his movements, and Barrage on a mechanoid to slow them down before blasting it with magic that will end its existence

Range: Up to a 100 ft. radius around the spell caster.
Duration: 1 min/lvl.
Saving Throw: -3 to save.
P.P.E.: 70
The spell caster can magically plunge himself and his enemies or all people within a 100 foot (30.5 m) radius (with the mage at the center) into a strange dimension known as the Realm of Chaos. Practitioners of magic believe this nightmarish realm is a frightful kingdom someplace in the Astral Plane. The general surroundings mimic the appearance of those in which the people just left, only they will seem somehow unnatural and empty (no strangers, animals, insects, etc.); clearly a copy. Only the spell caster is unaffected by what happens next.
Each character taken to the realm will experience his or her most hated andlor feared enemy or rival. In some cases, where a group of people are highly motivated or afraid of the same thing, one major villain/foe will confront all or most of the group (including at least one henchman per character). This deadly foe can be an antagonist the character(s) faced in the past or plan (or fear) to face in the present or future
(except the spell caster). Additionally, it can be a foe they have slain in the past. In such a case, they will claim to have returned to crave their revenge. These fearsome opponents all have revenge and murder on their minds and attack immediately. All these villains and monsters appear to have their normal powers, skills and weaponry. They are not illusions (presumably mental creations of the Astral Plane unwittingly magically created and fueled by the very people who fear or hate of them). Thus, they can be destroyed through combat.
Since the spell caster who brought everybody to the Realm of Chaos is not affected, he can step back and enjoy the show or join in the battle to destroy his enemies.
The only way to escape the Realm of Chaos is to wait for the spell duration to elapse, to kill the mage who cast the spell or to force him to take them back, the natural world. Note: The spell caster is central to this dimensional spell. He cannot leave the Realm on his own. When he leaves, everybody he brought with him in the first place comes with him. The magical enemies and fears are not the genuine article and cannot he carried back to the real world.

Sentinel watches the devil fight taking this opportunity to learn more about the creature he summoned. The ability still a mystery and wrapped in enigmatic memories of sacrifice and torture. What do they mean? he thinks to himself as he feels an urgency from outside the realm he stood.

Dispelling the chaos realm and returning the real the ectype takes stock of the situation at hand and seeing that all his other selves are engaged in the same activity spins himself to face the mechanoids ready to destroy the remaining mechanoids along with the disheveled mechanoids recently returned.

The ectype standing back mid range holds the remaining grenade positioning it in hand like the first and stops short as too many allies close in with his targets. Fortunate for them. he thinks lowering his hand. Had they been anyone else they would have been a justified sacrifice to victory. Somehow sentiment saved them despite the risk to the universe that remains as long as this ship was intact.

His thoughts as he watches the battle was interrupted be a sense of unease and apprehension followed by urgency making him glance back to Sentinel who shouts commands.

The ectype executes without hesitation drawing on the orbs power and following suit speeds himself up and pins down the mechanoids before unleashing his own hell on them. ”See you in Valhala?!” Sentinel says not sure if he remembering the quote correctly.

[Yes it’s supposed to be “see you in hell” but he mixed it up.]

After invoking this magic, the mage can magically parry energy attack/blasts with his arms and hands (a small field of energy momentarily appears around the hands and forearms). Best of all, he can deflect them in such a way that the attack is directed back at its source! Unless the attacker dodges, he takes full damage from his own attack and the mage takes none! To successfully return the attack to its source, the mage rolls to parry with a bonus of +3 (in addition to any P.P. and/or Targeting skill bonuses). A successful parry will block and deflect the attack harmlessly away. Any roll above a 13 will bounce the blast back at the attacker. The attacker can try to dodge the bounce back energy blast, but does so without bonuses and must match or beat the mage’s parry roll. A roll by the mage between 5-13 simply deflects the attack out of harm’s way, a roll of 1-4 means a fumbled deflection and the blast hits the mage without it being deflected.
The mage can also try to deflect the blast at a different target, but does so without any bonuses and needs a 16 or higher to strike. Note: Only energy blasts, including magical energy, can be deflected back at the attacker or at others. However, the mage can parry and deflect projectiles harmlessly away the same as the Deflect spell.

Deflect (Reference for Targeted Deflection above)
This spell allows the spell caster to attempt to magically parry and deflect incoming ranged-weapon attacks such as arrows, bullets, lasers, particle beams, rail guns, tire balls, called lightning, etc. The caster gets to roll a normal 20 sided die +4, for his or her parry (plus any P.P. attribute bonus; other parry bonuses do not apply). If successful, the attack is deflected by a small energy field, and harmlessly hits the ground 1D4x10 yard/meters away. Such a deflection may hit an ally or innocent bystander if used in a crowded or heavily occupied area.
This spell can also deflect missiles, even volleys, but the spell caster might get caught in the blast radius and innocent bystanders are likely to get hurt. When missiles or powerful energy blasts (those that inflict 1D4x10M .D. or more damage) are deflected. the character must roll a 20 sided die again, but without benefit of a bonus, to see whether or not the attack is deflected away without harm to others, or whether it strikes an innocent bystander. A roll of 1-4 means the attack is deflected into the ally nearest the mage! A roll of 5-8 means it hits an innocent bystander. A roll of 9 or higher means the attack is deflected without harm to others, unless the area is densely populated or crowded, then innocents are almost certain to be injured. Area affect attacks like exploding rockets. missiles, and grenades, or rail gun bursts may strike and injure or kill dozens of people; G.M.s should use their discretion in such determinations. No, the spell caster cannot accurately deflect the attack into a specific enemy target or location.

The ectype more used to dancing around attacks instinctively did so missing the opportunity to deflect back the shots and saving himself and his comrades from the blasts as they passed him. I am going to have to practice this. he thinks amusingly to look towards Brute ahead. I think he would enjoy that with his new pistols.

Feeling a sense of urgency, he looks back as Sentinel commands him. Action on instinct again built on centuries of experience he speeds himself, further pins down the mechanoids in a hail of blasts, and delivers a dragon ball of fire worthy of another fictional character.

Targeted Deflection is a more advanced form of the Deflect spell. After invoking this magic, the mage can magically parry energy attack/blasts with his arms and hands (a small field of energy momentarily appears around the hands and forearms).

The ectypes glance at each other realizing that they both didn’t deflect a single shot. That was ill planned. he thinks chagrined.

Feeling a sense of haste and reaction from his other ectypes all springing into action, he begins concentrating and weaving his mind palaces that were built over centuries, unconscious decisions that work their way to ones being. He begins to root the enemy under withering fire after speeding his actions with the spell Tyral just an evening before taught him. Moving faster than he ever has before he rips through the spells to unleash devastation on them mechanoids before him.

Conditions:
Time: 0114.75
Location: Deep space, dimension unknown; inside the Mechanoid mothership; Deck 5
Gravity: fluctuating micro-gravity conditions (effectively zero-G); currently .9 G
Environment: artificial environment/pressurized spacecraft

And so it comes to this. Two Mechanoid Exterminators -- really groggy, barely awake Mechanoid Exterminators at that -- and a Mechanoid Skimmer versus a magically buffed elven Cyber-Knight, an equally magically buffed four-armed superhero, a demigod, a powerful wizard, a Psi-Ghost, and roughly half a dozen turbo-charged spell-slinging terracotta statues.

Before Rocky can join the battle, the stranger (Birger) looks at his battered armor and grimaces. “Here, take this. It’s something I was keeping in case of emergency.” He hands Rocky an amulet. “There’s one armor spell left in it. It’s not much but it might be just enough to let you get out of trouble if you need it.” ((OOC: you get one 8th level Armor of Ithan -- 80 MDC -- from this amulet. It’ll disappear once the Epic is over though.))

If someone were somehow observing the battle from a place of safety, comfortably seated with delicious snacks, it may be about this point that he/she might realize that it may indeed be possible to actually feel sorry for insane murderous cyborgs bent on the complete eradication of all humanoid life throughout the known Megaverse as the remaining Mechanoids are slaughtered with amazing speed and efficiency. They never even have a chance to shoot back.

Ectype #2, feeling drawn back to the ‘real world’ cancels out his Realm of Chaos spell and re-deposits the battered Skimmer and Brute next to the nigh-exterminated Exterminators. For a moment it appears that the battle is not yet over -- but that’s when the other Ectypes begin casting SMD’s (Spells of Mass Destruction, for those not up to speed on magical combat jargon).

Brute, Ronith, John and Rocky just barely get away from the still-not-quite-fallen-over hulks of the Mechanoids as a volley of baseball-sized black orbs rain into the area they occupy. There are several flashes of light accompanied by several muffled sounds that could be a cross between an implosion and an incineration. When the flashes/sounds subside there is absolutely no trace of any of the Mechanoids (save for a few scatterings of ashes here and there). There are sections of floors/walls/ceilings missing as well, exposing complex substructures along with various spouts of steam/gas/liquids from pipes that have been broken.

As Rocky begins to press south, Presence puts a hand on his shoulder. “You want to get there, I can get us there fast.” She turns to her former teammates. “We’re gonna have to get to the energy core the old-fashioned way. You want to help, hold this area with the console room and the lift in case we need to fall back. If we can get the teleporters up and running again I’ll radio on the Omegas frequency. Good luck!”

She picks up Rocky and darts off down the massive corridor. ((OOC: I gave ML the heads-up that you’re heading down there, Rocky. Feel free to post in that thread now.))

Tale of the tape -- Round 2:

Tyral: AoI is at -100 MDC
Brute: Invincible Armor is -30 MDC
Ronith: Invincible Armor is -15 MDC
Ectype #4: -30 MDC
Ectype #5: -10 MDC
Presence: N-F50A Superheavy Force Field popped; NE-BA-26: Main Body destroyed, left arm armor destroyed, -38 to helmet ; -30 to personal M.D.C.
Rocky: -33 I.S.P.; NE-BA-40: -16 to left leg, -14 to helmet, force field is gone, Main Body is destroyed; Psychic Body Field: 100 M.D.C. Was given a one-shot AoI talisman good for 80 MDC that will disappear at the end of the Epic

All Mechanoids are destroyed and the corridor is heavily damaged.

Brute watches with his mouth hanging slack as Sentinel's annihilation spells devastate the corridor and it's mechanoid occupants. He turns to face the Terracotta Omega with a look of awe and admiration. His mind reeling, he can think of nothing more to say than "Get back, now. Look at the big magic on Zheng." He smiles and gives him a thumbs-up.

Presence wrote:"You want to help, hold this area with the console room and the lift in case we need to fall back. If we can get the teleporters up and running again I’ll radio on the Omegas frequency. Good luck!”

Brute looks at Ronith briefly before nodding at Presence. "We're here if you need reinforcements." He steps back into the console room. We've got a little breathing room... I should make this count and gather some more intel for CHIMERA. He pulls out his cellphone and takes an array of pictures of the Mechanoid ship, focusing on the command console in the room they're in, as well as any electrical or other systems exposed by Sentinel's barrage-o-death.

He attempts to gauge what in the immediate vicinity would be of most tactical importance to get pictures of.

Intelligence 50% 1d100 = 100: 100 (VERY FAIL)

He also snaps discreet pictures of his teammates, without telling them: Ronith, the elvish commander, who has led them through Asgard and Hell. John, the mysterious outsider, brimming with power. Tyral, the adept mage from an ancient land. The Asgardian, Birger. And his teammate and friend from Century Station, Sentinel. Pictures taken, he slips his cellphone back into its pocket and takes a position near the command console room door, and watches the corridor for signs of hostiles, his antennae still twitching.

Track by scent 46% 1d100 = 72: 72 (FAIL)

They're getting ready to blow this ship up. Hopefully, they have time to give us a heads-up before that happens, so we can portal out of here. He looks at Birger, confident in the Asgardian's ability to get them out... provided there is time.

Looking vaguely in the direction Presence and Rocky jetted off in, Brute says a silent wish. "Blow this ship to hell."

Conditions and Stats

"A bit much don't you think," John calls back towards Sentinel before walking forward and crouching next to the nearest crater. Hesitantly he reaches down with a gloved hand and touches the tortured metal remains of the Annihilation spell's effect. Amazing, he muses, but raw magical destruction can't win all battles, he concludes thinking back to the Coalition's siege of Tolkeen, a home of his for a time.

Before Rocky & Presence run off he enchants each of them with Invincible Armor (150 MDC, 30 PPE, 18 minute duration), Impervious to Energy (20 PPE, 12 minute duration), and Invisibility to Sensors (20 PPE, 12 minute duration) to ensure they safely make it to wherever they're going. Then he sets about placing Watchguard (10 PPE, 6 hour duration, BOM p. 103) incantations along the various avenues of approach to the area the group needs to guard.

Once the alarms are in place he returns to where the others are gathered and swaps the partially used e-clip in his rifle for a fresh one and settles in to wait.

To Sentinel (or the nearest ectype) he asks, "Where did you learn that anyway? That's a very difficult incantation to master."

To Brute he asks, "What other powers do people on your Earth have? Like are there people that live hundreds of years or something? Without being turned into clay statues?"

Ronith Conditions

Armor regeneration- 1d6 = 5: 5

Ronith would almost feel bad for the Exterminators- if they weren't insane, genocidal cyborgs and a threat to virtually all life in the megaverse. As Sentinel unleashes his barrage, Ronith rides Sleipnir out of harm's way- retrieving Brute if necessary as he does so. Racing out of the devastation, Ronith reins up in front of the others and murmurs "Impressive."

While Presence is unfamiliar to the cyber-knight, he can pick out the similarities between her uniform and those of his empowered companions, and Rocky he recognizes from the Newfoundland mission some time back. With a nod to the psi-ghost as he disappears, Ronith rubs Sleipnir's neck and says "My thanks, noble steed, but it appears that I am now needed to adopt a more defensive posture." With that, Ronith dispels the horse- not without a pang at his hopes that he will be able to ride the majestic creature again once the Aesir are finished with him.

Keeping his swords drawn, Ronith will take up a position opposite Brute and await whatever else the Mechanoids decide to throw at them. Never much for idle conversation anyway, the cyber-knight remains mostly quiet- listening to the others and for any signs of the mechanoid reinforcements.

The invocation pours forth from Sentinels stone lips faster than he anticipated. One after another in a blink of an eye the black pea sized ball of antimatter streaks into the mechanoids. With each steak the orb of energy gets smaller and smaller until it was as small as a lonely soap bubble bursting.

The orbs popped and rippled across the deck like Koi feeding on the surface of the water, the mechanoids disappearing in the whirlpool.

Sentinel stood there in stunned disbelief at the speed the spell worked upon him. Too describe what it feels like. he thinks at how the raw surge of power felt.

"Get back, now. Look at the big magic on Zheng." He smiles and gives him a thumbs-up.

The golem looks sidelong at Brute with an eery smile crawling across his face, ”Indeed Mr. Jackson, almost as big as your muscles.” Sentinel says cheerfully.

Sentinel equally amazed at himself smiles after the devastation the magic wrought, but has other things in mind. He calls the Devil he has been examining to him and moves to Sentinel for the Link that hangs at his side to take it. It did not go as he had planned. The speed of his movement was tremendous, and he moves much father that he intended. [likely slamming into a wall]

The ectype collects himself off the ground, ”That was not as expected.” he says moving deliberately slower after he drops the spell on himself.

The ectype takes the Link to the Devil, ”Take a hold.” he commands. What magic does, this know? he thinks interested in learning more about the potential of his ability to summon. What else could I summon? I felt it but summoned what I knew from before. It was simple to think it.

”Lady Presence, I will do as you ask and hold here.” he says watching them go. He looks around the room and the control panel. Hmm, can I make this work? he thinks bending over the console.

Sentinel pokes and prods, and examines the alien technology. He thinks back to anything Marcus might have told him about the mechanoids. I wonder how Marcus is doing. John came back but he didn't. he thinks wondering and concerned why the Doctor didn't come back too.

Putting the distractions aside he searches his own memory, magic, science that may help him solve the puzzle of this "teleporter".

Brute chuckles and shrugs. "The array of powers is vast... but most folks have none. It's a small minority, really, who have any kind of mutant powers or magic. We're really... just beginning to learn the possibilities, I guess."

Sentinel perks up joining in the commentary, ”Mr. Jackson is correct. I myself came to Century Station. Magic doesn’t seem to be as developed as it is here in this realm.” he says waving about and at the craters.

All my magic is stronger here. I doubt I would have the same results.” he says. ”It was an odd sensation now that I think about it. I barely knew of Century Station yet I came. My other selves came too, it was like a calling? he says shrugging not sure what to make of it.

What does it mean? I don’t remember. Why don’t I remember? Is it the same as Tyrals magic I remembered? he thinks. It continues to be a ravel of thoughts too confusing to focus on any one part.

MINI-UPDATE

Brute and Sentinel hear Presence's voice over their Omega frequency radios.

"Brute, Sentinel, the job's done and we're teleporting out. Suggest you do the same and fast. Good luck -- see you on the other side!"

Brute turns to Birger, giving a thumbs-up. "That's it - other team's successful. Ship's done for. Time to go."

Brute turns to Sentinel. "Zheng... would you mind giving up some of your Omega RFID badges? Hand 'em to John, Ronith, and Tyral." Turning to the group, he adds. "I know odds are long, but if you ever find yourselves in Century Station, look us up."

The warriors chat amongst themselves as they take a holding position, waiting on word from Brute’s and Sentinel’s teammate… or Mechanoid reinforcements… or some other impetus for renewed combat. The group’s resident Omegas pass around spare badges to the others along with an invitation to visit Century Station should they find themselves in that dimensional neighborhood. ((OOC: Brute -- PM me with the stats on that if there are any and I’ll add them to the appropriate character sheets))

When Presence’s update comes through on the radio and is relayed to Birger, he nods. “I guess that’s my cue then. Get ready.” After some chanting and gesturing a swirling portal opens against one of the non-damaged corridor walls. The Bifrost can be seen on the other side. Heimdall and the coach driver are visible in the distance.

“I can’t keep this open long, gentlemen. I’d advise against lollygagging.” As if on cue, explosions can be heard in the distance as the group begins to step through the portal.

……………………………………………

After a carriage ride back through Asgard, the champions find themselves back where they first met each other -- those who weren’t already teammates, anyway -- The Vagabond Baker. There of course is a spread of food and drink laid out for them (a spread even more sumptuous then the one that was provided the first time) along with Baldr and Thor there to celebrate with them.

After a little while of food, drink, and merriment the door opens and Odin the All-Father himself joins the party. “By my bristling beard! Our champions return triumphant!” He grabs a mug of ale and downs it in what seems to be a single gulp. “Not only have you stole away into Hel’s domain and lived to tell the tale, but our sources have also confirmed that the evidence you collected has successfully been delivered to the Splugorth. Without their assistance it will take her centuries to re-create what you’ve destroyed… assuming it’s even possible at all.”

His smile fades slightly. “And now that you all have successfully completed the tasks for which we have brought you here, we must return you to your normal islands in the time stream. You will unfortunately not remember much upon your initial return to your normal time and space, but as you re-align yourselves with your… what did you call it, Baldr? Oh yes -- your ‘temporal echoes’ -- you will remember more fragments of your mission. But no matter how much or how little you remember when you return, know that you have played a great role in preventing the deaths of untold trillions of innocent beings throughout the Nine Realms and beyond. And for that, you have the eternal gratitude of Asgard. Now return to your homes, and may your enemies quake in fear at your approach.”

He raises his spear, which glows with a golden light… and the light grows brighter and brighter until all are blinded by it. When their vision clears they find themselves in the exact same time and place where Loki/Halfrost shook hands with them.

And with that, the Epic is concluded. It's been a genuine pleasure gentlemen.

Spells:
Targeted Deflection (Level 6) Federation of Magic pg 114

OOC Comments

Range: Effective targeting deflection is 500 feet +50 ft./lvl. Trying to hit a target beyond this range is -1 to strike per every additional 100 ft. This spell can only be cast on the sorcerer himself,
Duration: One melee/lvl
Saving Throw: Dodge
Limitation: Energy attacks only, but as Deflect spell for all other.
P.P.E.: 15
Targeted Deflection is a more advanced form of the Deflect spell. After invoking this magic, the mage can magically parry energy attack/blasts with his arms and hands (a small field of energy momentarily appears around the hands and forearms). Best of all, he can deflect them in such a way that the attack is directed back at its source! Unless the attacker dodges, he takes full damage from his own attack and the mage takes none! To successfully return the attack to its source, the mage rolls to parry with a bonus of +3 (in addition to any P.P. and/or Targeting skill bonuses). A successful parry will block and deflect the attack harmlessly away. Any roll above a 13 will bounce the blast back at the attacker. The attacker can try to dodge the bounce back energy blast, but does so without bonuses and must match or beat the mage’s parry roll. A roll by the mage between 5-13 simply deflects the attack out of harm’s way, a roll of 1-4 means a fumbled deflection and the blast hits the mage without it being deflected.
The mage can also try to deflect the blast at a different target, but does so without any bonuses and needs a 16 or higher to strike. Note: Only energy blasts, including magical energy, can be deflected back at the attacker or at others. However, the mage can parry and deflect projectiles harmlessly away the same as the Deflect spell.

Deflect (Reference for Targeted Deflection above)
This spell allows the spell caster to attempt to magically parry and deflect incoming ranged-weapon attacks such as arrows, bullets, lasers, particle beams, rail guns, tire balls, called lightning, etc. The caster gets to roll a normal 20 sided die +4, for his or her parry (plus any P.P. attribute bonus; other parry bonuses do not apply). If successful, the attack is deflected by a small energy field, and harmlessly hits the ground 1D4x10 yard/meters away. Such a deflection may hit an ally or innocent bystander if used in a crowded or heavily occupied area.
This spell can also deflect missiles, even volleys, but the spell caster might get caught in the blast radius and innocent bystanders are likely to get hurt. When missiles or powerful energy blasts (those that inflict 1D4x10M .D. or more damage) are deflected. the character must roll a 20 sided die again, but without benefit of a bonus, to see whether or not the attack is deflected away without harm to others, or whether it strikes an innocent bystander. A roll of 1-4 means the attack is deflected into the ally nearest the mage! A roll of 5-8 means it hits an innocent bystander. A roll of 9 or higher means the attack is deflected without harm to others, unless the area is densely populated or crowded, then innocents are almost certain to be injured. Area affect attacks like exploding rockets. missiles, and grenades, or rail gun bursts may strike and injure or kill dozens of people; G.M.s should use their discretion in such determinations. No, the spell caster cannot accurately deflect the attack into a specific enemy target or location.

To Sentinel (or the nearest ectype) he asks, "Where did you learn that anyway? That's a very difficult incantation to master."

Upon seeing his other self overshoot his movement, the ectype takes up shorter than normal while moving to Sentinel’s side. Taking the scroll from his robe, ”Mr. John, I do not remember where or when I learned it before, but these scrolls Lord Birger gave me revealed to me the lost knowledge. My apologies, I do only have one left, I gave the others to Tyral.” Sentinel bows apologetically before handing the scroll the to demi-god. ”May it serve you.”

His question is accurate. When did I learn that powerful spell? That wasn't the first time I saw it on a scroll. I dearly wish to stay and study longer with the Asgardians. Sentinel thinks feeling deeply that a key to his memories must be there.

”Lord Birger, It has been an especially rare distraction to be here amongst you saving the mega-verse, may I entreat you to allow myself to stay among you in Asgard to learn and study?” the ectype asks politely implying only this ectype would be staying.

Brute turns to Sentinel. "Zheng... would you mind giving up some of your Omega RFID badges? Hand 'em to John, Ronith, and Tyral." Turning to the group, he adds. "I know odds are long, but if you ever find yourselves in Century Station, look us up."

Mr. Jackson, that is a reasonable idea.” Still at Sentinels side the ectype easily gathers a few of the comms devices from his fellow ectypes who unclip them from around their necks. Mr. Faraday can make some more on our return…hopefully not my return though. The ectype thought.

”Here you are.” the ectype says handing a com device to each.

On the mothership...
John takes the scroll from Sentinel and gives a nod of thanks tucking it into a pocket. When Birger starts to open the portal the shifter watches him closely. What's this, his fourth portal? Or fifth? Where's he getting the energy? As curious as he might be in Birger's magical ability he spares no time in rushing through the rift to Asgard.

At the tavern...
Always interested in learning new magic John spends a few minutes studying the scroll he was given to commit the spell to memory (EP crit success) then sets about dropping his equipment and getting himself out of the Yggdrasil bark armor. The armor and the wirehorse are left on one of the tables but the sword he takes over to Balder himself. "An honorable weapon," he says as he holds it out. "I appreciate your trust in me to wield it." He begins a turn to join the reverie but with a heavy sigh he turns back to face the asgardian.

"You said something earlier. At the time I wasn't in the right frame of mind to pay much attention to it. You said I did great honor to my heritage. What did you mean by that?"

Tyral watches as the Statue man unleashes an awesome inspiring wave of destruction ad nods to himself in quiet reflection. The Wizard will take the 'Badge' bearing the Omega sign and drop it into his dimensional bag as the Portal off of the ship is manifested by Birger, "I will bear it fondly in the days to come, and darken your doorway should I ever sojourn to this Century Station ..."

In Asgard, Tyral will take several minutes of his carriage ride to enchant objects with Wards, then drops them into his Dimensional Bag

OOC:. This seems like a viable use for the 1800 PPE in an Orb he can't bring back. Placing Wards in the Sling Stones in his Belt Pouch (has 15), and his Orb of Light @ 90 PPE each, he should still have left over.

Tyral will imbue 6 Stones with Wards: Agony
Tyral will imbue 6 Stones with Wards: Firebolt
Tyral will imbue 3 Stones with Wards: Sleep
Tyral will imbue his Orb of Light with Wards: Agony

Upon arrival at the Tavern, Tyral will politely sample various foods (taking care to try the Wine(s)). When it is determined that their time is at an end, he stands and clears his throat, "I return home heartened by these last days and hope you remember me fondly in the future. I hope that you live long ... and prosperously ... "

Baldr nods as John hands him his sword. "The Earth Blade was made to be used against evil, and it's hard to find those more evil than the Mechanoids. I'm glad you were able to carry it into battle."

The Asgardian sighs. "I doubt it is fully... appropriate... for me to say much on the subject, as that is his right and his responsibility... but I know your father. Not quite as well as Freyr, of course, as he has had far more extensive dealings outside our pantheon, but I know him well enough to recognize his light in you. It flows as strongly as the waters of the Tigris, or ‘مانند آبهای تگریس جریان دارد,’ as he himself might say.” He chuckles. For a moment John could swear Baldr spoke a line in Sumerian. “Your longevity? Your durability? Your aptitude for the magical arts? You were touched by godhood, John Dresden Smith. Sired by it, in fact. I believe the term the humans like to use is ‘demigod.’” He shrugs. “Whatever you want to call it, your heritage is of the gods. A god of magic if you want to be specific. If you want to know more than that I suggest you start by looking within.”

Odin strokes his beard and ponders for a minute before nodding. “Very well, champion…” he says to Sentinel. “Your clone may remain among us as our honored guest.” He turns back to Ectype #5. “Welcome, brave warrior -- I hope your stay with us is enlightening for all those involved.”
