Tracy draws a gun and moves toward the exit, but he stops after taking a few steps and looks at the other two. Shall we investigate that?

"Hel-LO.  Heroes, remember?"  Copycat's already heading for the door.  Someone getting attacked right outside their new headquarters?  That would make TERRIBLE press!

Dala blinks slowly as she rises a few inches above the ground and starts hovering towards the door right behind Copycat and send everyone a telepathic message "I can share your thoughts, easy communication!"

As you near the door you hear not one, but many shrieks and screams.

"Uhm...yeah."  Copycat grimaces.  "Either something's attacking, or the Blob is the new Calvin Klein underwear billboard model."  Well, she wanted to be a hero--opening the door, she ducks through, ready to dodge if anything gets fired at her.

Copycat stops and squints at the "fuzzball."  What in the hell is THAT? she wonders; those using telepathy will probably hear that, and see an accompanying image of the target. 

(OOC: What sort of "fuzzball" are we talking about, here?  That could apply to a lot of things in the Marvel Universe, and a guy in a bunny suit is going to be a lot less dangerous than, say, a berserk Sasquatch.)

OOC: Including the sneakers? :D

I'm ready to roll by the way, would it be okay for me to drop in?

No sneakers.

A figure appears running towards you, against the horde.

OOC: Bowenclaw is in now.

As you hear the sound of a big V8 engine, a black '67 Chevy Impala (OOC: Yeah, I had to :P) with rock music blasting out of the radio stops outside of the apartment and a young man, unshaven, wearing jeans and a black leather jacket over his shirt, probably somewhere in his early twenties, greets you: "Sorry I'm late, I had some car trouble on the way. Looks like I'm just in time to join in on the fun though." He sarcastically remarks while he gets out of the car.

A carpet.  I'm fighting a carpet.  For this, I gave up genetic engineering?

'Cat approaches the "monster" in her usual style--cautiously, making use of cover. 

"Uh...'scuze me.  Mister, aah, Red Furry Guy?"  She peeks over the top of a car.  "Are you here to fight, or are you one of those "Scary Looking With a Heart of Gold" types?"

"CREATURE!" The thing shouts as it swings as Cat, but overestimates her height.

"Okay, apparently he's not one for intellectual debate...
Hey Fuzzball! Leave the lady alone!"
John shouts as he starts moving towards the monster, trying to draw it away from the cat-woman and any innocent civilians.

[spoiler]Okay, time to start reading up on the details of combat in this system :P[/spoiler]

Creature charges towards John, slamming him with a backhand. Endurance FEAT please.

Rolled a 60: http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1913181/

Cross referencing with the table gives me a result of YELLOW (barely :P)

John is able to avoid being thrown back, but takes considerable damage (50 points)

In case it matters, Initiative = 6: http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1913239/

"Guys, a little help here?! This oversized rug hits pretty hard!" John yells as he reveals long metal-looking blades coming from his hand and slashes at the monster.

OOC: What rolls are needed to attack with my claws? Do I roll using Fighting, or do I use my power rank for my Claw power or do I use my Strength? I'm a bit confused...

Also, what do I need to do to use my Weapons Specialist talent and my Extra Attacks power for extra attacks?

EDIT: Does my Body Armor reduce the damage I took?
