Thankfully that’s not quite temporary insanity but certainly inching closer to indefinite insanity

Rita turns to see Mr Gardiner on foot... Her blood freezes and a scream gets trapped in her gut... too intense to leave it.

No need for further sanity rolls, Rita, it’s only on first sight (as the two men didn’t see last round)

You can still act normally

While Rita decides her action, what is Joe doing?

Seeing James... no that was not James anymore... it could not be. Seeing the thing rise from the floor, Joe was frozen for a moment. As it turned away from him, he tried to move away from it, only to find the solid wall behind him. Glancing around, he spotted the open door. His mind grasped at that one thing... the door out of the apartment.

Slowly he slid along the wall and the kitchen... inching toward the open door as the thing continued to look away from him into the bedroom.

The Gardiner-thing
As the Gardiner-Thing stands fully it tilts back its head and emits a horrible whistling scream from its throat orifice.
OOC:
Everything make a contested POW check vs Gardiner’s POW or be dazed for 1d3 rounds

It has made a Hard success, so you need to at least match that to resist

Rolls

POW - (1d100)

(35) = 35

OOC:
POW check
The terrible scream of the creature that was once James Gardiner rattles Martin to the core.

The horrible scream splits Joe's skull, a wave of dizziness hits him and he stumbles against the kitchen counter. Desperately he grabs the side of his head trying to block out the sound.

Bruno slams his hands over his ears, trying in vain to shut out the horrid sound.
OOC:
What does Dazed mean in this context?

[ +- ] Dazed
OOC:
In her absence, I'll rule that Lori is dazed for 3 rounds. Hopefully @Cola will check in.

Rita, you do have the opportunity to use Luck on that roll. Although it's a fail (you need 30 for a Hard success) you can spend 10 luck from your pool to avoid getting dazed (@gesges)

OOC:
I will keep the luck for later... something tells me it will be useful 😅

The Gardiner-thing
Round 1

If it were not for the swirling colours distorting your vision, you would see the creature lurch toward Martin and swings at him with a bloodied fist.
OOC:
In melee combat, you have the option to either dodge or fight back. With a Dodge, you avoid the damage on a successful roll, regardless of success level. Instead you can fight back and if you get a better success than your attacker, can do damage. On a draw, the attacker always wins. You cannot use Push but you can use Luck on combat rolls. What would you like to do, Martin? Keep in mind you have a penalty dice, whichever option you take.

Rolls

Brawl - (1d100)

(76) = 76

Jun 2, 2025 1:12 pm
OOC:
So that's a 92...ouch.
His ears ringing from the creature's scream, Martin tries to dodge the blow.

Martin attempts to dodge and even though he mistimes it, the fist doesn't connect.
OOC:
Ok, let's move to Round 2. Rita comes out of her Daze. Please make a Sanity roll @gesges

Seeing former MrGardiner moving towards Martin, Rita grabs whatever she finds that could be thrown... as the lamp in the table!
