Phillip's crouched form took the wendigo's massive limb across its back with a sickening crunch drawing a cry of pain from the undead paramedic. If he were a cartoon character he would be accordianed around the torso while little skeletal birds flew in a circle over his head.
Toughness: 1d20+10-1 23 fail by 8 is Dazed one round and another -1 Toughness. Not as bad as it could have been.

Cheyenne
HP: 3; Condition: Huntress

Chey took the bullet like a champ and just powered through it the shimmering veil flowing around her concealing her from sight, Faith was good no doubt but Shed taken down better. This would be no different. She felt the flow of magic through her focused on it as Felix had helped her to learn and kept coming,

"Hows it feel to be Hunted?" she growled low her voice carrying through the dark.

Cheys power check _: 1D20+12 = [13]+12 = 25
passes she still has predator up
Dr. Silverback has wryly observed that this is like trying to teach lolcats about Shakespeare

"If I had to give it a review... about four outa five." The woman both predator and prey replied, eyeing the path between them.

Foxy disappears and reappears on the side of Faith opposite Cheyenne's side, 10-20 feet away. She says, "You should stop shooting at people. There's no need to fight at all. Lay the weapon down and all will be well."

(Obviously the idea is that Cheyenne is not within the burst area of this:
Entrancing Speech: Cumulative Burst Area Affliction 8 - 1st degree: Entranced, 2nd degree: Compelled, 3rd degree: Controlled, Resisted by: Will; Extras: Area (Burst) (30 feet radius sphere, dc 18), Cumulative; Descriptors: Auditory (1 PP)

Faith's eyes traced the air from where Foxy had been, turning herself partially to spot the fox having appeared behind her. Her brow furrowed as the strange thing started to speak, before quickly covering the ear facing her with her hand. "Shapechanging, electrical discharge, teleportation, verbal enthrallment, and illusionary construction. One would almost think it, but no, you're not a sorcerer. Something different."

Foxy bows gracefully. "Do you have a problem with sorcerers?"

Cheyenne
HP: 3; Condition: Huntress

Chey knew she was pushing things hard as it was she was bloody near a machine when it came to stamina even before she was imbued with her powers but channleing power like she was doing had its cost and she could feel her legs burning especially with the tingle from the bullet hit. Still she pushed harder and closed on Faith like a train as Foxy distracted her

"Shes a distraction." came a voice from nowhere before a sledgehammer of a punch slammed into faiths gut her body a glimmer of shadow and forest.



Shell do a full move to catch her

Then surge to Close and Attack

Cheys going to all oui maneuver for +2/-2 and power attack for -2/+2 _: 1D20+6 = [19]+6 = 25
19 is a crit for a DC32 impact

Hero point to counter the fatiigue from the surge

Predator remains in effect

The woman grits her teeth hard enough that something had to crack, staggering back heavily from the blow. When Cheynne pulled her hand back it was glistening, her fist lightly coated in something that glinted red from a distant ray of the jeep's high beams. Faith's eyebrows pinched together, a hand going towards her stomach. Still, she stood, at ease on her feet as well despite the woman's strength.

From the clearing, a coyote tries to get the drop in on Felix, but fails to evne get close.

Cheyenne is now down to 1 HP, but good strike! Felix is up.

Felix Ian Xavier - Mr. FIX I.T.
Status: Injured 1, Fatigued
HP: 0 = 0 Starting + 1 from GM - 1 HP Reroll


Felix was force to send another pulse into his forcefield as the coyote tore into into it, threatening to shatter it and possibly his shin in one go.

He'd had a brilliant vision of simply blasting the coyotes back repeatedly while luring them away from the old man, he was suddenly reconsidering his plan. Dying was not really going to help anybody, or at least that was his opinion and he was sticking with it.

He turned his staff back into a hoverboard, locking his robot arm into place to hold himself in place, and launched himself into the air ten feet up. High enough that they probably couldn't reach him, but close enough that their rotten zombie brains might see him as the closest target.

Ignoring the exhaustion growing deep in his bones, he pulled power from the sky and sent out another burst of magic ripping outwards, hoping to smash the coyote abominations into the ground.

OOC: Toughness save vs DC23: 1d20+7 10
Toughness save vs DC23 HP Reroll: 1d20+7 25
Move to 9 down, 16 across, and ten feet straight up.
Should be just far enough away to avoid hitting the house, the old man, and Philip.
30 foot blast centered on him, DC18 dodge save, DC23 toughness save.

Foxy wishes she were in human form as a fox cannot really harrumph. She supposes in her professional life that would be extremely accurate.

Concussive force slams into the ground again, and one of the coyotes seems to falter as if a string was cut from its control bar. The fumble proves to be a fatal mistake as it takes the full brunt of the arcane wave, its body ripped to shreds to be used no longer. Those left behind yap and snap uselessly for Felix, their bodies far too stiff to allow for jumping the gap.

One of the coyotes have been put down For Good! Philip is up, and Neko too as I skipped you by accident. Gomenasai!

[Dazed this round]

Phillip fought through the pain to lash out once more at the peripheral muscles, avoiding the harder-to-put-back-together bits.
Attack: 1d20+8 23 DC23 Toughness, though if he hit by 5 or more DC25, or DC28 if 10 or more.
Standard action
He then fades to Mist hoping the insubstantiality would save him from retribution from her or her diminishing pool of reanimated canids.

Mimi "Neko Mimi" Nomura
Dodge: 10, Parry: 10, Tough: 6/3, Fort: 6, Will: 8, Perception: +10
HP: 0, Condition: Normal

Mimi had hoped that Phillip would tear into the creature with all that vampire strength she'd heard about, but it hit him hard and told her this wouldn't be a simple fight. She drew her blade from over her shoulder, tugged her mask into place and held two fingers up in front of her face, vanishing from her perch in a blur to appear behind the wendigo, where she launched a deep slash at its back, only for her to vanish again.

[ooc]Same movement as before, wall crawling to get down out of the tree, slash, move up another tree. Power Attack at -5 to hit for +5 damage. To-hit: 1d20+5 8 That's a miss.

Ahanah screeches in pain as Philip's protean claws strike her flesh again, barely even noticing the flicker of movement from Neko. "Hurt! Hurt! Hurt" Ahanah stumbles backward while clawing uselessly at her many wounds. "Help, H-haru, help... H-haru- hungry- help..."

The woman plods around in a daze, snout in the air as she searches. Claws grasp at the ground blindly, before grasping one of the coyote corpses. Carefully she lifts it upward with mumbled words. "Hungry, hungry, hungry..."

In the forest, Faith pulls her hand away from her wet chest- pulling a vial containing some reddish solution. In a quick motion, the vial is uncorked and downed. Whatever it was it seems to fill her with a renewed vigor, the woman taking several steps backward as she surveiled the trees. Then with an ease of grace and flexibility nearly on par with Cheyenne, she leaped upward to grasp a branch to swing herself up further. Somewhere in the scramble upward she managed to find the time to fire the gun downward in a spray of buckshot.

GM: Philip, this looks like your chance to break through! Everyone besides him though, your turns are back up!
