[IC] Finding Benjamin

[GM Marvel]

[OoC: A Grabbing Attack is an attack geared at taking a possession away from an opponent, like a gun, bomb, or Maltese Falcon.  So it would be a grapple you were attempting. ]

Ballista says, "Dude, Psi-Jack isn't even in the room!  C'mon leader.  Do something!"

Initiative order:
111 Malcolm
83 Callisto
81 Room of Spectators
80 Giants
37 James
30 Masque
18 Ballista (Used 31 + 19 Karma; 12 damage)
8  Benjamin

While still holding Malcolm in a partial hold [Giving you a -2cs on your actions.]  Callisto grits her teeth and continues her attacks but they seem rather half-hearted...

Grapple: [1d100] = 18, [1d100] = 35, [1d100] = 14; All misses

The spectators move in...

One man lunges at Benjamin and after a bit of a scuffle, the man manages to put him in a half nelson.  Benjamin yells, "Help!  He's got me!"
Grapple: [1d100] = 85; Yellow; -2 to actions

Another Morlock swings at Ballista and punches him in the gut...
 Attack: [1d100] = 85; Yellow; SLAM!

Ballista resists! (With Karma) and gets knocked backward into the wall.  [He takes typical damage from the punch and Typical from hitting the wall.]
Endurance check: [1d100+5] = 35+5 = 40; Uses 31 Karma; New Yellow Result; Staggered.

A group of 4 morlocks jump on James and before he knows it he's completely overwhelmed and every limb is pinned!  "Umm, guys... We're getting overwhelmed here..."
Grapple: [1d100] = 81, [1d100] = 98, [1d100] = 78, [1d100] = 73; No damage; 3 partials and 1 full hold.  Meaning all he can do is try to escape and he gets -6 on his attempt!  

Another Morlock slips in beside Malcolm but fails his grapple.
Grapple: [1d100] = 32

The giant who was hurled across the room moves closer, knocking people out of the way as he does.  The second Giant swings his huge fist at Benjamin and hits him in the face.  But Benjamin takes the hit like a champ.  The giant yells, "Masque, we can't hurt'em!  We need you to take away their resistances!"
Attack: [1d100] = 50; Hit!!; Attack didn't penetrate body resistance!

Masque grins.  "Coming..."

James tries to escape but he fails.  "Guys, I can't move and I can't get into a position to blow either!"

Masque moves in and yells at one of the Morlocks, "Get out of the way!" [He will move next round so Masque can turn one of you into putty. ]

Ballista eyes flash with anger.  "I'm tired of your bullshit!"  He thrusts his fist at the Morlock who hit him and blasts him in the stomach.  The Morlock yells in pain!  [Ballista holds back a little because these guys don't seem to be super powered, and does 20 damage!]
Attack: [1d100+5] = 22+5 = 27; Used 19 Karma; HIT!!; 

Benjamin suddenly shrinks to 1" and disappears between the Morlock's legs.  

[MALCOLM'S Turn!! ]
