I'll get an IC post up later, though I have a rules question. Doesn't Toughness negate damage under it's rank? Your wording in the last post sounds as though you are using it to reduce the rank of damaging attacks instead.

You have a point. Let me alter my post.

Toughness roll for the Arcaninaut’s main body:
He has an Impervious Toughness of 1, meaning the DC is now a 30.
I was talking about that. Don't mean to get rules-lawyer on you. I wanted to be sure you weren't using house rules for Impervious and that I wasn't misunderstanding the extra's base mechanics.

Imperious does not have his Impervious Toughness activated (Mental Immunity is up instead) so I should still make the check. Apologies for the confusion.

I'll note that HP gain in my setup.

Imperious does have Accurate (but not Acute) Mental Sense. Would he be able to sense any mental residue left over from this Arcanicaunt? Would a Life Science check (coupled with some Super-Senses Such as Visual Detect Life, Microscopic Vision, and X-Ray Vision) help determine if the Arcaniaunt is still alive, but in some other form … or even formless consciousness? The way it has operated is pretty insidious and I want to make sure this thing doesn't come back to haunt me later.

Did Imperious get any useful information on the Arcaninaut from his Life Science check + Super-Senses?

A bit of background on Mr. Ashcroft:
Physically helpless, Mr. Ashcroft is a powerful ‘receptive’ Telepath, meaning he can read minds really really well, but cannot focus his powers in any other way. He can communicate telepathically, but only to those people is his immediate vicinity. The people of Bastion are not fond of Mr. Ashcroft, but’ve learned by now his dedication to the community is total and tha5 he can be trusted.

That it’s dead, yes. It also had short-range telepathic nodes in each constituent body...meaning the whole collective had to stay physically near each other!

Anything about those parasites (were they part of the collective?), or something that would indicate how it might have been in contact with Renner?

No, unfortunately. It was clearly telepathic. It lured Renner out by posing as Mara—-the Arcaninaut flat-out admitted as much during your brief conversation with it.
