WORM: City at War

GoblinNerd27

Jibba!! Jibba!!
This world is insignificant in the grand scheme of the universe. Earth however has something that many other worlds don't have...sentient life. These life forms however are vain, violent, hypocritical, and confused in nature. However this world has inner problems. Problems that though the universe has no care for, but to earth it was a matter of it existence. In this world a single entity broke through the worlds perception, A gold skinned man completely naked as he flew around with no wings and saved the world. From forest fires to even mass shootings he was there to prevent it. After years this man never spoke...until one day in 1995 this golden skinned man was in Germany preventing a forest fire from spreading. As the reporter approached him everyone was shocked to see him in clothing as he turns and walks towards the German newsman. In German the man asked, "who are you?". The golden man paused and spoke in almost every language to everyone who could understand their own language.


"I'm Scion"


after that people started to attain powers. at first they thought Scion was behind it, But this was quickly disproven as people from all over the world started to report gaining powers through what seemed to be extreme mental or physical trauma. Soon enough these so called parahumans started to gain recognition whether it was good or bad. Some creating gangs and some creating hero teams. Soon enough the threat that these "capes" as civilians started to nick name them posed a true threat to national security. Sot he government created a new branch to help integrate and manage the capes known as P.R.T. (Parahuman Response Team). Soon enough they knew as well that normal humans wouldn't be a threat so they recruited capes who are willing to work for them known as the wards and protecarete. The wards are for capes from 10-18 years of age an Protecarete is the team for capes of 19 and older.


Our story doesn't begin with any big city or huge hero's fighting the villains. Our story starts in a town in Colorado called Longmont. With a gang that lives in the city and doesn't pose a big threat to the city...however There's a storm brewing and in this abandoned building this group will soon experience what a real crisis is...in time.


It's a cool day though the sun is brightly out at 12:11 P.M. the abandoned building is located around the south end of Longmont as the gang inside is debating on what to do for their next big score.

Sitting on a box at one end of the warehouse, Renna is idly smoking a cigarette as she halfway listens to the conversation next to her. She glances over at the others and takes a long drag off her smoke, and then flicks the butt out into the air. The others are talking about robbing a liquor store, but that just doesn't sit well with Renna. <sigh> I wonder, why was I spared with these powers? Was it so I could snag some beer from the local store? Somehow, I feel that I am meant for more than this. She taps another cigarette out of the pack and brings it to her lips and lights it. With a shrug, she stands up. "I'm outta here. I need some air. I'll see you guys around later." She makes her way out of the building and kicks on her TK, using it to slide along the ground, heading towards the nearby 7-11 for a Dr. Pepper.
 
As your skating along to the 7-11 the door opens. It's those lesser stores without any security camera and is only half the size of a normal 7-11. as your getting the dr.pepper the clerk looks at you, "is this all you need?" as he says with doors opening to reveal another person who is actually wearing their mask. This person is dressed in in very golden yellow clothing that looks like a motorcycle jacket and wears a not so concealing mask. He is one of the very few capes in this city who calls himself "hero" he's well known on the south end of town where many of the rich suburban area is. He is known as Golden Boy. The clerk gets excited seeing this hero in the flesh .

The tough girl in Renna comes out at the sight of the fellow super. With a shrug as if it is no big deal to see him, she says, "Hey. Cool mask." Fumbling in her pocket, she pulls out a couple of singles and sets them on the counter to pay for her drink, all the while, she is thinking, Keep your cool, Skate. Please let me keep my powers under control here. I do not want to embarrass myself in front of this guy!
 
He notices and smiles, "hey there. I was just dropping by because I was deciding to further my heroics out here, oh that's right!" he says getting closer as you turn.


"there's been police reports of at least two gangs here with capes in them. Would you know anything about them?"


(also are you in full costume and have you made yourself publicly known?)
 
"What? Know about the gangs, or the capes? I've heard of some around here." She is trying to be a bit vague, since she is probably one of the capes he's talking about.


As far as a costume, she doesn't have a specific one for her super id, but she will do her best to hide her face, either in a hoodie or in a mask that she carries around in her pocket. Skate's identity is a secret that is not too well hidden in her home turf, but she does her best to keep a low profile when she's not in 'costume'.
 
(alright, now to continue)


 
He nods, "could tell me anything about them perhaps?" he says as he smiles wide showing one could tooth that's his incisor
 
She shrugs. "Just the obvious ones. Y'know, there's Power Trip and Megavolt with the 29th street gang, then there is Destiny with the Sisters of Doom. Everyone knows to keep away from them. The Doom are just plain crazy; and don't call them the Sisters. They don't like that. You might end up with your tongue cut out. What else do you want to know?"
 
As he's about to say something you see him suddenly lunge for you and tackle you to the ground as the glass in the front window break revealing two metal hooks that are the size of meat hooks go in and pass above you as they hook into shelves. They then seem to pull in as the rip the shelves off the wall making all sorts of snacks fall. After a moment you hear a disgruntled voice call out


"I know your in their golden brat! come on out and I won't aim to hurt the civilians inside!"
 
She hits the ground, but hardly feels the impact as her force field flashes to life. Damn! Not now! Too late to hide her secret from the guy lying on top of her, she slips her hand into her pocket and puts on her own mask. In a grumbling voice, she bitches, "Goddamnit! All I wanted was a damn Dr. Pepper and now some asshole is tearing the place to pieces! I'm gonna give him a piece of my mind!"
 
Its just the 2d6, right? Do I add them together to get a result?


[dice]11047[/dice]
 
(yes it's just that and you do add them together)


Golden boy rolls...


[dice]11048[/dice]


and the cape villain rolls...


[dice]11050[/dice]


So in order it's you then (his name is Meat Hook) Meat hook then it's golden boy


You have two standard actions. Attacking, moving, and doing something complicated counts as one standard action. so just saying you go out and then attack would count as your two actions
 
A now angry Skate rises up from the floor, feeling the strength in her protective field surrounding her. Sliding out through the broken window, she makes a pushing motion with her hand and sends a TK wave of force to slam into him. "Buddy boy, you gone done pissed me off."


OOC I presume I roll my Power skill for this?


[dice]11051[/dice]
 
Anything involving your power you use your power skill


Meat hook frowns as...


[dice]11053[/dice]


He gets hit by 1! please roll 2d6 for damage
 
Skate gives a snarky smile. "Whats the matter meathead? Oh, sorry its meat hook. Didn't expect to find Skate inside?"


[dice]11055[/dice]
 
Golden boy looks surprised and smiles.


Meat hook frowns as he tries to launch on of his hooks at golden boy


[dice]11056[/dice]


and golden boy defends with power


[dice]11057[/dice]


He smiles as you see his body become golden as the hook tries to get in as it bounces off golden boy


Meat hook tries again


[dice]11058[/dice]


And golden boy defends


[dice]11059[/dice]


The second hook launches as you see golden boy dodge in time as his body shines and in the last second seems to move 5 feet away from the hook as it misses


Golden boy smiles as he charges at Meat hook


[dice]11060[/dice]


and meat hook tries to launch a hook at him to disrupt him a little


[dice]11061[/dice]


He succeeds and Golden boy tries to hit again with his power


[dice]11061[/dice]


and Meat hook tries to jump away


[dice]11063[/dice]


And golden boy misses again


It is now your turn
 
Seeing how Meat Head is dancing about, Skate tries to snag his foot with a telekinetic grab and hoist the bad guy up into the air.


[dice]11064[/dice]
 
[dice]11065[/dice]


Meat hook launches a hook at golden boy catching on and pulling himself towards him dodging just in time to get away from the grab


Please roll again to attack
 
"Jerk! You're not supposed to dodge that!"


[dice]11069[/dice]
 
[dice]11072[/dice]


And he steps out of the way in time


He laughs, "golden brat and slut are trying to get me? That's hilarious. And I thought I would get the fame from beating Golden boy but he has to have help from a whore like you to get me?! that's rich!"
 
Skate looks offended. "Slut? Just because the only sexual contact you can get is when your sister kicks you in the nuts, that doesn't make me a slut!"
