Please Xcrawl, Don't Hurt 'Em

Callan pats at the flames on his shirt, taking care not to slap his freshly-acquired wound; it's a vintage Juno Priest shirt from the Olympian Epitaph tour! Can't have that going up in flames... Although the slash across the shoulder just adds a little of that X-Crawl Factor that makes for a perfect look!

"What an intense round we've got here!" the announcer says into his Loud Mouth Microphone and looking at one camera. "I think they're putting on a warm-up show for the crowd. A tightly packed group of undead is an ideal target for a messenger to turn, but instead the Houston Hexcrawler's messenger, Bole, the Tree of Repudiation, went with a projectile attack and scored a solid hit! 'Bombastic' Butch was not so lucky but he did look good doing it. Sassafrass returned just in time for the attack but her shot missed by mere inches. Vi Vi scores a glancing both but took worse in the exchange! That reminds me, if you are looking to exchange your currency, try Quik XChange, the only currency exchange to offer deferred payments. Back to the match, it appears their blaster was going to unleash a spell but took a nasty hit and lost his concentration. Tymun the dwarf mechanic also doesn't escape unscathed but he returns more than he got with a direct chop to a zombie's torso. The clear winner this round is HH's athlete, Gabriel Carver. While he took a knife to the arm, he severed the zombie's arm, literally disarming it! That was followed by a whiffing punch but let's focus on the disarm!"
OOC:
+1 Fame for Butch and Callan. 4 zombies took damage, 2 are unharmed, all are still standing. Butch and Bole are up!

"You heard the man, Bole, give the people what they want!" Butch shouts out at the group's Messenger, despite having a headset with a mic on him already. That's part of what makes him 'Bombastic', he was never into that sneaky whisper-into-the-mic stuff like he's some wannabe commando. Xcrawl to him is about being loud and flashy, working the crowd first and foremost. With that, he braces his shield to hold the zombies from pouring out of the elevator and takes another stab at the one he sliced earlier.
OOC:
Besides advising Bole to use his Turn ability, consider this using his Mojo for the turn check, if applicable. The Jammer's ability reads: " The jammer has a special Mojo ability. Unlike members of every other class, the jammer has the ability to boost their ally’s attack rolls, spell checks, or skill checks with Mojo points from their own pool after the die roll." So assuming Mojo can be added to the Turn check (not sure if it's an attack/spell/skill check or something else altogether), assuming Bole does use Turn and assuming that after his roll, adding Mojo would somehow improve the results, consider me having passed him some.

Sorry for the if/then/else vibe, it feels like jumping in to give Mojo would wrok fine around a live table but I'm not sure in a PbP setting I'll be around in time to interject myself and do the same.

Gratefully, Bole nods, grasping the miniature moon that he wears around his neck - the holy symbol of Diana - and attempts the Holy Act of Turning these Unholy zombies. "In Diana's name, I rebuke thee, cursed spawn of the pits!"

Holy Act check (PER +1, Level +3, Mojo gift +1) - (1d20+5)
