Devra couldn’t take her eyes off the news coverage.
All those people, all that destruction, it was too much.
The others were right, they couldn’t have stopped it, they were no match for that fleet.
She understood why they were heading for the portal, wherever it was. She understood the prison rescue, she had always understood why the Scholar had left her to be captured in Egypt.
That didn’t make her feel any better about it.
The only hope anyone had now was fixing this in the past. This world, her world, was dying. Ra’s staff, The Rod Harry carried, and the Scholar’s stone. They were all needed for the portal to work, Nightmist, The Visionary, even Harry had risked their lives and hers to free Ra. They had one shot, go back in time, save this Legacy guy’s father and stop some madman named Baron Blade from creating this hellish reality.
She thought of Amanda and her mother, maybe they could both be saved, maybe when this was fixed Amanda would have a mother who loved her. Unity could fight for that.
*Loud noises*
Suddenly the Bus wretched into the air, and an explosion rocked the air around them.
"Leave Legacy, get Ra!" Wraith yelled through the smoke and fire. They had to keep Ra safe, no matter what.
Haka pulled the doctor free of the wreckage, then looked to see a helicopter landing roughly twenty feet from the bus.
"Hello Friends," a voice came over a megaphone, "I am pleased to announce you will all soon be dead."
Episode 5:
Number of Heroes: 3-5
Available Heroes: Haka, Mr. Fixer (with rod), Nightmist, Tachyon, Visionary, Unity, Wraith, Scholar.
Villain: Ambuscade special edition
Environment: Rook City
Special Rules:
1. When a trap is shuffled into the dack by its text play the top card of the villain deck.
2. Ambuscade has a dog, his name is Fido. Information to follow below:
3. Ra is a hero target with 10hp, text on the card reads:
"Place this card next to a hero target, when Ra would take damage that hero may take the damage instead."
"At the Start of a hero turn, a hero may take Ra and put him next to their hero card."
"If Ra reaches 0hp the heroes lose the game."
Ambuscade's Dog, front side.
FIDO, Gene-Bound Doberman. (H)x4hp
This card is indestructible.
When Fido reaches 0 or fewer HP, return this card to the villain play area and flip this card.
The first time each round Ambuscade targets a Hero Character Card for damage, or damages a Hero Character Card place Fido next to that hero, that hero may discard/destroy up to (H)-1 cards, If (H)-1 cards are not destroyed/discarded this way that hero cannot play cards, use powers or deal damage until the start of the next villain turn.
At the start of the turn if this card is in the villain play area play the top card of the villain deck.
At the start of the villain turn return this card to the villain play area.
Second side.
FIDO, licking his wounds.
This card is indestructible.
At the end of the environment turn shuffle the villain trash and reveal cards until a device or trap is found, put that card into play or under this card.
Personal Cloaking Device cannot be put under this card.
If there are three or more cards under this card, put those cards in the villain trash and flip this card, restoring it to full HP.
Sorting out some rules and such with Fido:
The effect on the first side goes off even if you don't take the damage, it goes off before redirection takes place, or if the target is immune. If Ambuscade cannot deal damage it will not trigger, which will cause the start of turn effect to take place at the start of the next round. If Ambuscade targets a non-character card it does not trigger, but if that damage is redirected to a hero character card it will trigger on that hero. If Ambuscade damages a non-character card hero target, then targets a hero character card it will trigger on the character card.
The hero who is targetted gets until the start of their turn to decide, they can post their decision and action(s) at that point. They can't draw a card on someone else's turn and then discard it to fulfil requirements, but if they do met the requirement they could then draw cards they would have drawn on other player's turn.
On the second side: I will announce on the environment turn what card Fido finds, the very first responder will decide what happens to that card (in play or under Fido) then I will continue on to the villain turn.
Feel free to ask questions if you have them.
As always first come first serve.
