The Merge: Young Hero Initiative (OOC-transfer from Roninarmy)

[kirinke]

Why not wack Malady with Stain?

[jmucchiello]

Failing to pick up Stain would mean no damage to anyone.

[Neo-Paladin]

I am sorry, Malady was attacking Anna.

[Bladewind]

First time using Nullify as a primary ability, had a something I was curious about. With the base ability if one target per activation, could I use it a seccond time on someone else while maintaining the first effect? If so, would I then be able to maintain both or would I need to choose which?

I think Doc M meant to ask for Mergebane...

Personally, and I have not looked at the sheet in detail, my thought is maintaining requires an extra of Broad mitigated perhaps by a quirk of some kind allowing only one type to be activated per round...

[Doctor Malsyn]

The merge affects us in all sorts of ways...

[jmucchiello]

What do you mean by maintain? Nullify just turns a power off. They can turn it back on as a free action in many cases. It is an Instant effect. unless you bought it sustained.

[Doctor Malsyn]

I had, yes. So long as he maintains it, they can't turn it back on- Becoming just as normal as everyone else before the merge.

[jmucchiello]

Then you can't really switch to another one. Although weaken would probably do what you want better than nullify. But I'm not certain about that.

[kirinke]

I think Helena is doing a pretty good job of distracting Rust Angel.

Or rather annoying her to death.

[Doctor Malsyn]

Think you skipped over me somewhere, boss.

[Neo-Paladin]

Sorry....mistook your resistance post for your action post. Please, do act )

[kirinke]

Natural 20 on the dodge. I tink I made the save.

[Doctor Malsyn]

I rolled a one on my attack and then failed my toughness... Can we trade dice?

[kirinke]

Lol. Change die rollers. Sometimes it's the only way.

Don't worry, I'll tank something eventually. Last time I played a light controller, she consistently failed her attacks and aced her defense rolls. I also made her the group skill monkey. She usually tanked those as well. It became a running meme that she couldn't hit the broadside of a barn at 2 paces, but could shrug off most attacks. Then with another character, I gave her high perception/insight points, but again, she constantly rolled like 1's or 2's on those skills. She couldn't even see her toes!

[Doctor Malsyn]

Oof. Sometimes the 1d20 has a touch too much randomness to it that makes things a character should easily accomplish downright impossible.
