Spectrum's Comments: We start out with the Crusaders in three separate groups. Firestar, Lord Liberty and Ernie are enjoying themselves at the Wally World Amusement park, while Ranger and Strongbow are looking into VIPER Activities. The rest of the team are going through a training session in the War Room.
Crusaders #57 - "Showdown at Shea"
SUBJ: Ranger and Strongbow (R) FROM: GM Mad 04/08/90 S#: 1408
Strongbow come out of the dugout, shouting at Starshine.
Strongbow - "So, Imperial's woman rears her ugly head!"
That definitely gets her attention!
Starshine - "Ugly!?!"
Several blasts of energy are fired from her wrist bracers. 'Bow evades most of them, but cannot elude the last one. Hit, he tumbles back into the dugout. But not before firing off a blast of energy of his own.
While that is going on, Ranger is sneaking in from the blind side. He runs forward, leaps, delivering a flying kick to Plasma.
Plasma is totally unaware of the incoming attack and is struck. He tumbles to the grass. Amazingly, he gets right up!
Starshine - "Ah! There's another Crusader Clown around here!"
Ranger is defensively out of position and cannot avoid Starshine at almost point blank range. Ranger is blasted into right field.
Strongbow comes running out of the dugout. As he comes, his Strength of the Bear spell takes affect. He swings his coup stick at Starshine, knocking the villainess out.
Plasma acts, blasting Strongbow over the pitcher's mound.
Both heroes regain consciousness in moments. Looking around, they can see Plasma helping Starshine up. Grabbing a hold of Plasma, Starshine takes to the air and rockets out of sight.
The other VIPER Agents have retreated from the playing field.
SUBJ: Lord Liberty and Firestar (R) FROM: GM Mad 04/08/90 S#: 6681
At Wally World, Clark, Lynn and Ernie are enjoying themselves at the racetrack. The miniature sports cars speed around a small racetrack at a top speed of 10 MPH.
After almost an hour of racing, Ernie begins to tire of that. He wants to do something else. As they bring their cars in, Clark notices something odd.
The crowd noise is gone. An eerie silence seems to have come over the park.
Lynn brings her car into park, when suddenly ice surrounds the front of the vehicle!
Then a familiar figure appears. Around him are several VIPER Agents. One holds a rifle that fired the ice.
Imperial - "Well, well, well, what have we here? So nice of you to come to my park!"
SUBJ: War Room (R) FROM: GM Mad 04/08/90 S#: 24848
Dragonman shifts into Red Dragon form and glides out of his predicament. He flies towards the Sorceress and shatters the tentacle holding her back.
Now free, she avoids the incoming walls and flies to the off buttons. She hits her button and the entire room comes to a halt.
Felicity - "Not to bad, Crusaders. You may..."
Suddenly, an image appears in the middle of the War Room.
Imperial - "Well, well, well, what have we here? How about a real workout?"
The War Room comes to life again! A squad of robots appear out of the walls. Numerous weapons pop out of hiding.
Felicity - "Get out of the room! Something has taken over the controls! I can't shut it down!"
The hologram of Imperial continues to speak.
Imperial - "If you are hearing this message, then I can only assume that, somehow, you managed to defeat my take over bid. Not to carry a grudge or anything, but I left behind this booby trap. I introduced a computer virus into the rooms' controls. By using the room, you've unleashed the virus. Try to survive this one, super twits!
The image of Imperial disappears....
SUBJ: GM Notes (R) FROM: GM Mad 04/08/90 S#: 11738
Yes, he's back to annoy and pester you all! My alter ego, the Imperial one!
Now what, O'mighty heroes?
Spectrum's Comments: Isn't it amazing how three separate events lead everyone to the same villain? Seriously, Impy was a lot of fun to break out to annoy the heroes. I may have enjoyed that a bit too much.
SUBJ: Firestar
Lynn's jaw almost falls off at the sight of Imperial. She feigns surprise, not all to difficult under the current circumstances.
We are at severe disadvantage here. I'll attempt to bluff out of this by not recognizing Impy or his pals.
'What is the meaning of this? Who are you? What do you want with us?'
SUBJ: Ranger FROM: Deslock 04/09/90 S#: 52906
- Oof... I'm really getting tired of being trashed by those goons. -
Rising to my feet, I rush over to Strongbow's position.
"Well, the major players got away, but perhaps we can still catch one or two of the underlings and get a better idea what's going on."
I'll move back toward the wall used to gain entry to the stadium. Hopefully this will prove a more direct route than the VIPER agents must take, allowing us to make up some lost ground. If any are spotted, I'll give chase and subdue, if possible.
SUBJ: Lord Liberty FROM: REM9 04/09/90 S#: 124318
At first Lord Liberty is confused by Lynn's remarks, but his logic circuits quickly realize her ploy. "Yes who are you and how dare you attack my wife and son like this. Do you not have anything better to do than harass innocent people having a good time." All the while this is happening, Lord Liberty will be slowly inching his body between Imperial and friends and Ernie. While he is doing this, he will be scanning Imperial for any flaws he may exploit if this comes down to a battle. If fighting does break out, Lord Liberty will pick up his racing car and hurl it at our former ally. "Ernie, hide behind your car for cover."
SUBJ: Sorceress
'Not him again! I have no intention of going through this for his amusement!'
I'll cast a 'Gate' spell.
[Shift pool to 10" Teleport, x4 mass)
'Last one out is Imperial's brother!'
SUBJ: GM Notes (R) FROM: GM Mad 04/10/90 S#: 420344
Firestar and Lord Liberty:
Imperial laughs at your ploy.
Imperial - "You're going to have to better than that, toots. Come off it, tin man, you couldn't fool anyone in that get up. I know who you are, so no more games. Just give up and I won't hurt ya... Much."
SUBJ: Firestar
Seeing her ploy fail, I'll make no effort to conceal my identity.
'Fine. If you want to play, let' play!'
Cut loose with a Nova Blast. Place it so that it will cover Impy and his goons, but no affect Liberty and Ernie.
SUBJ: dragon FROM: Wild dan 04/12/90 S#: 499950
i head for sorc gate but first i let go with fire in a cone as wide as possable
SUBJ: NIGHTSTALKER - Malik FROM: NightStlkr 04/13/90 S#: 432604
"Impy's brother?? Eeehhh, I've been called worse... you guys get out while you can, and I'll bring up the rear."
NIGHTSTALKER will draw the War Room's assault as best as he can, performing acrobatic dodges and other strategic defenses (like maneuvering the robots on each side of him, then dodge out of the way leaving them to take each other out).
Once his teammates are out safely, Malik will head for the Sorceress' Gate. (Assuming he is still standing).
SUBJ: STRONGBOW - Paul BlackCrow FROM: AREION 04/15/90 S#: 72834
"GGrrrrr...That's TWICE that scum have slipped through my fingers!!"
Seeing RANGER racing back to the wall and having no means of following Imperial's lackeys...I decide he's got the right idea. Shifting to Speed of the Deer, I sprint off after the fleeing agents.
If I should reach them shift to Strength of the Bear and use my coupstick on them. (1L OCV, 1L DCV)
BTW: Did I get a chance to lock onto their scent??
Crusaders #58 - "One Man's Fun..."
At Wally World, Firestar, Lord Liberty and Ernie have been confronted by Imperial and a squad of VIPER agents.
Lord Liberty lifts his racing car and hurtles it at Imperial. Impy ducks and the car sails harmlessly over his head.
Imperial - "Nice try, tin man! My turn!"
Imperial fires off a blast of energy that entangles Firestar. She struggles for a moment, and then blasts her way free.
Before she can do anything, the VIPER Agents shot her with their Ice Pistols, knocking her out.
Imperial - "One down, one ta go!"
Lord Liberty rushes Imperial, punching the villain.
Imperial - "What are ya waitin' for, ya idgits? Shoot 'im!"
The VIPER agents comply, hitting Lord Liberty with concentrated blasts of electricity. He blacks out.
Imperial - "Now for some fun..."
War Room:
The Sorceress casts a Gate spell as the room moves to attack. She succeeds and everyone rushes through the portal to safety.
Felicity goes down to the power plant and turns the power off.
Felicity - "It's the only way to remove the computer virus. There is back-up software in the vault. I'll have everything back on-line in a few hours. Glad that you are all safe."
The rest of the night passes uneventfully.
Around 1 AM, Ranger and Strongbow return with a VIPER Nest leader in tow. They explain what occurred to the rest of the team.
They caught the Nest Leader as he was attempting to escape. A love-tap from Ranger put him out. They figured that Nightengale would be best suited to learn information from the man.
Oddly enough, Firestar and Lord Liberty have yet to return from Wally World.
Strongbow has the scent of Starshine and Plasma in memory.
Sometime later, Firestar and Lord Liberty regain consciousness. They find themselves in a large room, perhaps 30' x 70'.
Firestar and Ernie are bound back-to-back by metallic bands. They are inside a large, open topped cube. The walls of the cube are 4' high. On the other side of the room, Lord Liberty is inside a similar cube.
More menacing than this, the room is filling with water. It is currently about halfway up the side of the cubes.
Then they notice a raised area with a door. There stands Imperial.
Imperial - "Everybody comfy? Good. I could have simply wasted you, but that has no style. This little water room should settle your hash once and for all. I doubt you realize how devious this trap is. The bands holding Firestar to Ernie are highly heat conductive. Fire up and you'll burn the rodent. As for the tin man, the water itself is plenty enough a barrier. This water has a highly corrosion agent in it. Once exposed to his inner mechanism's, it's no more tin man! Ha! My genius even amazes me at times! And there are a few other surprises. Bye, bye super saps!"
Imperial exits out the door as the water continues to rise...
Spectrum's Comments: While not mentioned in any post that I save, there were also electric blasters in the room triggered to go off if anyone stood up. The characters involved knew about it, so it may have been revealed in private conversations.
SUBJ: Firestar
To coin a phrase of a certain GM, 'Oh bloody 'ell...'.
Firestar squirms in her bonds, but knows that she has no way of freeing herself without using her powers. Under no circumstance, will she allow the boy to be hurt.
'If we're going to get out of this, it's up to you Lord Liberty. I think I might have a plan, but it'll be dangerous for you.'
I strain, trying to get a good look around. There must be a drain somewhere in the room. If we can open that, that'll be the first step out of this watery trap.
SUBJ: Lord Liberty FROM: REM9 04/16/90 S#: 400047
"Firestar, yours and Ernie's safety are my first concern. Please state your plan with most haste and worry not about my condition. The modifications that you have been making in my construction might surprise our former ally." While Lord Liberty is conversing with Firestar, he is looking about the room trying to take in every detail.
(More specifically Mad, Or excuse me GM MAD, what is on the opposite side of the floor, how far apart are the two cubicles, where is the water coming from and how high up is the ceiling.)
SUBJ: Firestar
'Yes, my friend you've caught on to my plan. Your modifications, I pray they work, should be the solution. Your job is to open the drains out of the room. That will hold the water at bay, allowing you to rescue me and Ernie.'
GM Notes:
LL's answers.... Underneath the floor appears to be solid. You are currently underground. The cubes are 15' across. The ceiling is 14' high. The water is coming in from 8 pipes, one on each short wall and three on the long walls. The pipes are 8' above the floor.
SUBJ: Lord Liberty (R) FROM: REM9 04/17/90 S#: 805096
"Very well Firestar. I will be with you shortly. (I hope!!) In the event that I fail in this matter, Firestar, another possible escape might rely in you. Perhaps if this water is indeed corrosive enough to damage me, it might just dissolve the metallic band that bind you and Ernie."
Lord Liberty will first scan the drains to make sure that they are indeed drains and not wild gooses. At the same time he will make sure he can figure out a way to open them from this side (in other words make sure if he hits them the water will leave). Seeing that standing will produce no good results (i.e. I get fried) Lord Liberty will scan the walls of his cube, and when he has determined their weakness, deliver a massive haymaker to the spot in the hopes of shattering the cube wall. Once he has accomplished this (if it does not go on the first blow, he will push his strength and do it again), he will frantically swim (walk if necessary due to his weight) to the drain and break it open as well.
SUBJ: STRONGBOW - Paul BlackCrow FROM: AREION 04/17/90 S#: 514796
Arriving back at HQ, tired and somewhat irritated, STRONGBOW is surprised to find his two teammates have failed to return.
"They haven't come back??"
"True, the team's been through a rough time of late, they COULD have lost track of time. Still, the park must have closed hours ago...what would be open at this hour? Besides that, they have the boy with them...It could be nothing, but perhaps we should look for them."
With or without accompaniment, STRONGBOW will set out in search of his missing friends. He'll stop by their respective rooms to see if he can pick up their scent.
If I don't know where Wally World is, I'll just have to wander the street... try to pick up their scent.
In order to be as inconspicuous as possible, I'll wear my long overcoat and a wide brimmed hat (To minimize the gem's effect)...I'll tuck my headdress in a duffle bag and bring it along.
SUBJ: Sorceress
Once the fiasco in the practice room is over, I'll head to my private quarter to freshen up. But first, I'll approach Malik.
'What say we paint the town tonight, o'man o'mine? I could sure use some fun!'
If Nightstalker is in agreement, I'll return to my room and prepare for the night to come. She'll return dressed to do some serious partying.
She wears a black leather mini-dress, (to better show of her figure and legs). She wears matching leather jacket and black pumps. Earring, Necklaces and bracelets finish the outfit.
'Ready to party-hearty? Let's do it!'
Spectrum's Comments: If anyone had any doubt as to Gwen and Sheila being two very different people, that post should have put it to rest. They might have used very similar character sheets, but were as different as night and day.
SUBJ: NIGHTSTALKER - Malik FROM: NightStlkr 04/18/90 S#: 830899
"Well, that was fun, you guys. I'd have to say, 'I give the War Room two thumbs up'. So...uh...what do you wanna' do now???"
::After hearing The Sorceress' suggestion::
"Sounds good to me, Babe; what did you have in mind?"
Changing back into human form, Andrew goes to get ready. On the way to his room, he stops off to tell Audric his plans for the night, and not to wait up.
Soon after, Andrew comes back. He's wearing a black T-shirt, faded jeans, and black biker boots. Around his waist is a thick metal chain he uses as a belt. On his hands are fingerless black driving gloves, with a leather armband that covers half his left forearm.
Also, he is wearing a faded denim jacket that fits quite snuggly on his muscular form; a red bandanna tied around the right shoulder, and the sleeves pushed up to his elbows. On the back of the jacket is his band's logo, the same logo that's on his guitar: A skull with glowing red eyes over two black guitars crossed like crossbones. The words," METAL ASSAULT " are written over the picture in bold blue letters.
When he sees the Sorceress, it is easy to tell he's trying to keep his eyes from popping out of his head. He doesn't say a word; walking over to her, he takes her around the waist, dips her, and gives her a long passionate kiss.
::With a Billy Crystal accent::
"Darling, you look marvelous..."
SUBJ: Ranger FROM: Deslock 04/18/90 S#: 821643
"Well, we went fishing, and while the biggest ones got away, we did manage to bring this one home. Nightengale, do you think you could separate some facts from our recalcitrant witness. After that, it might be advisable for us to go find our team mates."
GM Notes:
Audric says to enjoy yourself! He was getting ready to leave himself to take in a evening stroll.
If I may suggest a place for you to go, Sorc and 'Stalker, the popular rock band Thunderstreet is appearing at the Hard Rock Cafe tonight. They have had eight number one songs, off of nine albums. Very hot.
The drains are real, Lord Liberty. Force appears to be the only way to open them.
After 'Stalker and the Sorceress depart and before Strongbow goes off, Nightengale scans the Nest Leader. She learns the location of his own Nest and Imperials. It is under Wally World! The place where Firestar and Lord Liberty took Ernie!
After the War Room incident, T-Storm appears disgusted.
T-Storm - "I've had enough of this! I quit!"
He then teleports away.
Spectrum's Comments: Nain had decided to quit with T-Storm, but was coming back as someone else.
SUBJ: dragon FROM: Wild dan 04/19/90 S#: 91101
strongbow need a lift :if stoong aggrees i will change into dragon forn red and fly him to wherever:
SUBJ: STRONGBOW: Paul BlackCrow FROM: AREION 04/20/90 S#: 60936
"That cuts it...They need help!! No use going incognito I won't be needing these."
STRONGBOW tosses his coat and hat to the floor.
"AH...thank you Dragonman, my means of travel are adequate, but a bit tedious. I would appreciate it."
After everyone's been informed, and those who are coming are gathered together, STRONGBOW waits for DRAGONMAN to transform and 'mounts up'.
SUBJ: Cool!!! FROM: Enchantres 04/21/90 S#: 813613
'Sounds good to me, honey-bunch!'
SUBJ: NIGHTSTALKER - Malik FROM: NightStlkr 04/21/90 S#: 801135
"O.K. then, Hard-Rock Cafe' it is."
Upon arrival at The Hard-Rock Cafe', a devious grin comes over Andrew's face.
"I just got a great Idea. C'mon, honey... we're goin' backstage."
Andrew leads her around to the backstage entrance and knocks on the door. When a bouncer sticks his head out, Andrew grabs him, pulls him outside into the alley, and gets inside before the bouncer knows what hit him (being careful not to hurt him, of course).
Use Energy Stimuli for this: +30 STR- 30ap, 13rp. +10 CON- 20ap, 13rp.
Once inside, he'll shift to Darkness (3"r vs. normal sight- 30ap) to allow the Sorceress and himself to slip by anyone in the hallway. When they get to The Thunderstreet's dressing room, Andrew will introduce himself & his main squeeze, and will try to use his Persuasion skills to talk the guys into hearing his band play. Maybe they (Andrew's band) can be the opening act for Thunderstreet, sometime.
It is a pleasant early summer night in New York City. Even at this late hour, the streets are crowded with couples enjoying the sites. If they were to glance sky wise, they would see a very unusual sight indeed!
A large red dragon flies across the sky with a rider. Followed closely behind by a man and a woman...
Crusaders #59 - "The Great Escape"
Having learned the location of Imperials base through a captured Nest Leader and that it is the same place that Firestar and Lord Liberty went to, Dragonman, Strongbow, Nightengale and Ranger rush to Wally World.
As they get closer, Nightengale scans the area, attempting to locate Firestar.
Nightengale - "Strange... I'm not sensing anything. There must be a Psi-Deflector in operation. How shall we go about this?"
Elsewhere in the city, totally unaware of the actions of their teammates, Sheila and Andrew make their way to the Hard Rock Cafe. Using his powers, Andrew gains access to the backstage area.
They cautiously make their way to Thunderstreet's dressing room. Loud voices can be heard inside as the door is opened.
As the band sees the uninvited guests, the room grows quiet, although several whistles are heard.
'Now that's what I call a fan!'
An attractive man with bright red hair approaches Sheila. He takes her hand and gently kisses it.
'Leo Lowe, at your service my dear.'
Leo, the lead singer and founder of Thunderstreet invites you in.
After some conversation, the time arrives for the band to perform.
'What are we gonna do, boss', the drummer asks. 'How we gonna play without Brad?'
It seems that Brad Howell, lead guitar has sprained his hand and they have no replacement.
Leo turns to Andrew.
Leo - "You say you can handle an axe? Here's your chance... Wanta jam with us?"
Inside the water trap back at Wally World, Lord Liberty studies the walls of his cube. Locating a weak spot, he strikes. The wall shatters and the water pours in. His internal seal activates, protect him from the water.
Being careful to keep low, Liberty crawls to the first drain. Repeating the procedure, he analyzes the drain and strikes.
The drain opens under the force his blow. The procedure is preformed on the other two drains.
In moments, a balance is struck. The incoming water equals the drain off. The water level remains at two feet.
Lord Liberty then makes his way to the cube holding Firestar and Ernie. Again he shatters the glass. He easily snaps the bonds hold the two.
Spectrum's Comments: Those who have the Zodiac Sourcebook may realize that Leo Lowe is the alter ego of Leo.
SUBJ: Sorceress
Somewhat reluctantly, I'll follow Andy into the back.
'You are a nasty person!' :>
I'm nervous throughout the whole ordeal to their dressing room, but when Leo takes my hand they melt away.
'Wow... Mr. Lowe, it's a honor to meet you sir... I... My name is Sheila Grace.'
I quickly decide to be quiet, not trying to sound like some star struck fan, even though I am. Hey, I never met rock star before!
I'll take a seat in the room and use my skills to make things easier. Although, we're gonna take about this 'main squeeze' business later! Her jaw drops at the chance for Andy to play with the band.
'Wow! What an opprotunity! Knock'm dead, tiger!'
I'll follow the band and watch from the wings.
SUBJ: Ranger FROM: Deslock 04/21/90 S#: 17433
"I'm afraid nothing brilliant comes to mind. We're heading into the lair of a man who knows our abilities quite well, as evidenced by the psi-screen. We're going to have to go down there and search for them, and Imperial's going to know we're there."
SUBJ: STRONGBOW: Paul BlackCrow FROM: AREION 04/22/90 S#: 418163
High above Wally World, the Navaho youth STRONGBOW rides atop a mighty red dragon. Tapping DRAGONMAN on the back of the neck, he motions for his transformed teammate to land north of the park.
Once we are on the STRONGBOW begins thinking aloud.
"This is not going to be easy! I had hoped Nightengale would be able to locate them...that this would be simple, in and out. Well if Imperial thinks that the Crusaders are that easily staved, he's sadly mistaken!"
"Here's the way I see our position. We would be foolish to engage the enemy head-on; he has an entire nest at his disposal. What we need is a distraction to draw them out, so we can search the compound unimpeded."
"Dragonman...if you were to circle around & start tearing the south end of the park apart from the air, it should draw most of the base's personnel into that section of the park allowing Ranger, Nightengale and I to sneak into the nearly deserted nest undetected in the confusion."
"With any luck, the Psi reflectors, designed to keep prying minds out, won't prevent Nightengale from communicating with Dragonman from the INSIDE."
If the plan is agreeable so far, STRONGBOW continues:
"Now, Dragonman...when you attack from the south, watch to see where the agents come from. If Nightengale CAN reach out to you it will save us the time of searching for an entrance. Even if she can't, we may need you as backup once we get back out, so if there is no contact, watch the sky to the north. I will signal our departure with a single glowing arrow. I'll fire towards the south if we need your help, or straight up if you're to simply cover our flight."
"We should try to destroy as much as we can, but the safety of our teammates and the boy is FIRST priority."
STRONGBOW awaits further input and/or discussion. :>
SUBJ: Firestar
Holds her breath as Lord Liberty enters the water. The minutes that pass feel like hours. It feels like an eternity has passed when he finally does free her from her bonds. Rubbing the feeling back into her wrist, she thanks him.
'Well done, Lord Liberty. Now all we have to do is get out of here with out getting electrocuted. Can you scanners detect anything?'
SUBJ: Ranger FROM: Deslock 04/23/90 S#: 835532
"Sounds good to me, Strongbow. I wouldn't count on catching Imperial unawares, but this should at least keep his underlings busy. Chris, is there anything you can do to mask us from detection by Imperial? At least then we won't be the only ones in the dark."
SUBJ: Nightengale
'Gale appears deep in though at Rangers question.
'Well, I do have a few options to suggestion. Assuming that my powers function normally under the shield, I'll be able to Mindscan for the enemy. I should be able guide us around them as necessary.'
'Another possibility is to put an mental illusion around us, making us look like part of the park itself.'
'An even better plan could present itself via Mindscan. Once I lock onto a mind, I can use my full range of powers upon. I could attack the mind, shut it down or even generate an illusion to that person. A lot of possibilities.'
SUBJ: NIGHTSTALKER - Malik (R) FROM: NightStlkr 04/25/90 S#: 802888
"Jamm with you?? Sure thing...I'll be happy to help you guys out. Should I go get my equipment,or do you guys have something I could use?"
If Andrew has to, he'll go back and get his guitar.If the band has an extra one, he'll start practicing for the gig.
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Also, Andrew apologizes for calling Sheila his 'Main Squeeze'.
"I'm sorry, honey...I didn't know it would it would get on your nerves so much. It was only meant as a term of affection." (( Boy, just imagine how upset she'd be if I called her my 'Love-slave'... )) ];)
SUBJ: Stryker (R) FROM: Nain 04/25/90 S#: 794020
As you approach the VIPER's Nest a figure floats out of the shadows to stand beside you.
It is a man about 5'10" tall and 155 lbs. He has on a bizarre costume. It seems to be one piece, from the full-face mask to the boots. No eyes are visible. The color scheme is what's really weird. The entire body is cover in odd angular shapes of shiny black, deep dusty red and bright neon orange. It's hard to look at and seems to be the work of a madman.
"Hi guys, I'm STRYKER!! I was gonna do a little snake hunting when I saw you all!" As he speaks, he does a bunch of acrobatic moves around you. He stops for a minute, standing on his head.
"Well, you don't seem like VIPER super-goons! In fact" he says, leaping 30' into the air, "I think I know who you are! You're that team which keeps getting trashed and losing people! The Crashers! No that not right! The Crusaders! No one else looks so weird!
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahah!
So you wanna help me stomp on some snakes!?!?! Hahahahahahahahah!????"
SUBJ: Stryker II FROM: Nain 04/25/90 S#: 829395
"Oh, yeah! It was so cool meeting you I forgot to say I'm the martial artist supreme, like ya know! I bet I'm even better than that twerp Sun Dragon, who is 'posed ta be with Viper! Wow! So Am I with you?!!!"
Spectrum's Comments: And here's Nain's replacement character. Obviously a graduate of the school of how to make friends and influence people.
SUBJ: Ranger FROM: Deslock 04/26/90 S#: 57080
"If you hold us in such low esteem, why then are you so anxious to join us? Our team has shed its blood, given our lives, to save you from threats of which you know nothing. Are you ready to commit yourself to such a life? If not, then let us get to the job at hand, we haven't time to waste on fools."
SUBJ: Sorceress
And it's a good thing you didn't!
GM Notes:
The band has several guitars to choose from. All are of excellent quality.
Spectrum's Comments: Next Time: The Crusaders take on Impy and his gang once more, while Megaton crashes the Hard Rock Cafe concert!
