WHO || Failboat and more... [closed]
WHAT || The Knights move on a warehouse in NYC to try and save Jeanne Gar & Rafael Giovanni
WHERE || New York City, New York
WHEN || Summer 2016
HOW || Actionspam or prose

The plan has been set, and the Knights are on their way to New York City once again - this time with the desperate hope fueling them that they can save two of their own, instead of simply endangering them further.  Jack and Buffy have greater stakes in this than anyone - as it is Jack's fiancee, Gar and the love of Buffy's life, Rafael, who are currently in the grip of the vile villains that have plagued them for the last four years.  Knowing fully well the risks that are inherent in potentially facing down the dangerous Mind Master, who shattered Myri's life in an instant by breaking Finnick Odair's psyche, their plan is to divide and search the warehouse as quickly as possible - knowing that every second counts, when an alerted team of bad guys could take the lives of their captured friends.  

It's an unparalleled gamble, but may be their only opportunity before Rafael and/or Gar are moved from the facility.  To that end, they converge at a nearby hotel...

[ well... fire is notoriously useful against swarms of any kind, and she recognizes that these insects are not just any normal bugs - she's seen them in one of the winchester's books: they're some variation of hellwasp, which she knows have a hind mind that makes them even more deadly. holy water might be another good option if she has any of that on hand...

either way, there's definitely a flammable warning label on the side of these vats.

the swarm rushes towards her, however, an angry buzzing mass that fills the air on every side of her as they start to sting (11 dmg) she must also make a fort save vs. poison and a fort save DC 18 vs. being nauseated. if she passes, she gets her other round. ]

[ Reaching into her pocket, Rose fishes out several vials of clear liquid, hastily removing the cap on one and takes a five foot step closer so she can splash the swarm ( Ranged Touch Atk 41, DMG 6 ), repeating the process with the second vial ( Ranged Touch Atk 37, DMG 6: Heroic Surge 1/5).

Of course Rose carries Holy Water. She's dating a Winchester.]

They're Hellwasps, if you have any Holy spells, now's the time to use them. [Gritting her teeth against their sting but avoiding the nausea. (Fort Save 27).]

[witchwoman]

[Holy as in healing? Well Myri certainly doesn't want to touch the damn things... so she'll just use a mass cure wounds. Moderate level to be precise. For 30 damage.]

[behindcloseddoors]

[ a few of the insects drop out of the swarm, but there are still hundreds left swarming around rose, who has to make the saves again as she takes 12 more damage from their relentless assault ]

[littledhampir]

[Good thing she'd have to crit fail to vom really (Fort Save 27 again). Seeing that not work as well as she'd hoped...]

Fire?! [And Rose will repeat the process from before and use up two of the three vials she has left: Atk 37, Atk 34 Dmg 6, 7. (HS 2/5)]

[witchwoman]

[She can do fire. A 10 ft column of fire to be precise. Hopefully it doesn't hit Rose?? CAN SHE SEE ROSE AT THIS POINT? They've attacked things so maybe? Anyway... Reflex 21 for half damage. 64 damage.]

[behindcloseddoors]

[ YES ROSE IS VISIBLE NOW. and about to be super on fire. luckily so are all those bugs, who glow bright with holy fire that devours the swarm and stamps it out once and for all with some hideous high-pitched screeches.

/init! ]

[littledhampir]

[Just barely making that friggen Reflex Save (21 - seriously I rolled a 2), Rose feels the heat of the flames lick at her skin as she moves out of the way, remaining burn free but for the singed hair on the back of her arm. (yaaay evasion).

Laying eyes on Myri, she gives her a quick once over to make sure she's okay.]

That wasn't Raf. [In case that part... wasn't super obvious.] We need to meet up with the others and get out of here before they send any other surprises our way.

[witchwoman]

[Myri rushes to meet her, reaching a hand out to check for signs of damage from her spell. Satisfied that she's unharmed, she nods.]

You should lead. Your instincts are better. But I'll be right behind. I'll try to save my spells as best I can to help get us out once we find the others.

[littledhampir]

[Rose throws a glance in the direction she'd seen the Mindmaster disappear, a look of frustration twisting her features before she's forced to refocus on the here and now.]

Alright, just stick close.

[To here]
