HULK
Boomerang! This is Northwind Observatory, a private research-and-development facility tucked away in the rolling forests of New York State's Catskill Mountains. Of late, rumors have circulated that incredible discoveries have been made here--discoveries that promise mankind a future free from hunger and pain. If the rumors are true, you are about to witness history in the making! Then, in a half-hour, a tired but contented Dr. Banner tends to his physical well-being. The shower is hot, and Banner, up all night preparing for his experiment, feels euphoria giving way to exhaustion. But, even as he slips into a semi-waking state... EEEEEEThat scream-- Kate! Dr. Banner's associate and lover, Dr. Katherine Waynesboro is in danger! Bruce Banner's Heath: 22
Bruce Banner's Karma: 46 |

Grabbing a towel to cover himself, Bruce Banner rushes out of the shower to see what's going on with KATE!

Kate's in danger, but Bruce Banner bows to necessity and grabs a towel and a pair of XXXLG purple briefs, before rushing through Northwind's corridors to the rescue of the woman he loves. "--which means I'm going to have to deal with your boyfriend!"A boomerang flies and it's ultrasonic wailing drives Banner mad! OOC: Bruce must make an Endurance FEAT roll or take Excellent sonic damage. Bruce Banner's Endurance is Typical, so the roll needs to be 51 or higher to avoid losing 20 Health points. Do you wish to spend Karma on the roll? (NOTE: That spending Karma will not guarantee success, because with a roll of 01, 02, 03 or 04 the total roll + 46 Karma will still not equal or exceed 52.) Since Banner won't be knocked unconscious either way, please just include whether or not you wish to spend Karma on this reaction roll in your next post, detailing what your character will do next. Also, you may make your d% (roll a ten sided die twice, the first roll is for tens digits and the second for the ones digits, with 00 equaling 100 instead of 0), on the honor system, or have me roll if you wish. However, all decisions to spend Karma must be made prior to rolling the dice. The decision just means that at least 10 Karma are spent, after the roll you may decide to spend more than the required 10 Karma.Bruce Banner's Heath: 22 (possibly 2 if Endurance FEAT roll fails)
Bruce Banner's Karma: 46 (possibly 36 or less if Karma is spent on an Endurance FEAT roll) |

Bruce Banner covers his ears hoping to resist the high shrill. A costumed villain? Why is he doing this? What does he want with Kate?
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
I'll spend 20 Karma.
Good thing too. I rolled a 37.
That's a total of 57. Barely made it?

Bruce covers his ears, but the screamerang continues to circle him, emitting it's ultrasonic wail! But Banner can't lose consciousness--not with Kate in danger!
OOC: Roll another Endurance FEAT after deciding whether or not to spend Karma. Also post what Dr. Banner is going to do about this.

Bruce can't get away from this boomerang and it's debilitating effects. He's not sure what to do. He tries to reason with the villain. Let her go! I AM THE ONE YOU WANT, RIGHT?
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
I'll spend 10 Karma, minimum.
I rolled a 7.
So that means, even with my 32 Karma, I fail.

Unfortunately, Bruce Banner's plea can't be heard over the screaming of the boomerang.
Kate's in danger and all Banner's genius can't save her from it!
OOC: The screamerang is still circling, so another Endurance FEAT will be needed.
Hint: I want to make sure you are aware that Banner can transform into the Hulk at will, while retaining control of the monster's body with his mind.

Damn boomerang! I guess this idiot wants it the hard way. With this thought Bruce Banner transforms into the INCREDIBLE HULK!

I roll a 64.

The Hulk almost got beat by the skill of Boomerang once before! Is here where Boomerang claims the cigar, because almost doesn't count? OOC: Now the Hulk needs to make an Endurance FEAT roll. But in this Monstrous form, he only needs a 21 to succeed.Hulk's Health: 195/215[Bruce Banner's Heath: 2/22] Karma: 22 |

The Hulk grasps his ears, trying to resist the boomerang. Hoping to knock the boomerang out of the sky, the Hulk takes his hands from his ears and claps as hard as he can. He's hoping to not only neutralize the boomerang, but also separate Boomerang from Kate.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
I roll a 48.
As for my next move I believe I want to do a shockwave, but the "thunderclap" type the Hulk is famous for. Couldn't find a rule in the book right away, but I know there is one somewhere.

OOC: For this thunderclap, roll using the Unearthly column for Hulk's Strength, however the attack does no direct damage, so a Yellow or Red result is needed to either Slam or Stun the screamerang. Hulk needs a 46 to Slam or an 86 to Stun. [Note: In most cases this will just be a possible Slam or Stun, but in this case, I will not give the screamerang a chance to resist. It's all on your roll.]
Please first decide if you want to spend Karma, and then roll the thunderclap attack.

THOOM!The sonic boomerang is slammed out of the air! And whoever threw it is going to have to answer to the power of the Hulk!Solid, weighted boomerangs strike at the Hulk's key nerve centers with unerring accuracy! OOC: Hulk must make an Agility FEAT roll (46+) or topple, then an Endurance FEAT (21+) or be knocked out.Hulk's Health: 195/215

The Hulk is getting tired of this. LET HER GO, CRETIN! The Hulk slams the ground hoping to send a shock wave powerful enough to separate the 2.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
I roll a 33 and a 2
I want to attempt a Groundstrike, but with those rolls...

OOC: Well, Hulk did strike the ground."You heartless coward!" Kate cries. "How can you strike at a man when he's down?""Hey, lady," Boomerang answers. "What better time is there?"Boomerang's shatterang slashes out, strikes a critical point in Northwind's superstructure... SPLANG!
When Hulk regains consciousness, he's buried under a mountain of machinery. He also hears a voice call to him, "Come, come, Dr. Banner! I am a man of little patience--and even less time!"Hulk's Health: 195/215
