I've picked up the pdf of Warriors and Warlocks and I'm hooked!
It's just what I've been looking for to enable me to run the fantasy world I've been creating over the past five years or so.
I'll be posting more information soon

Holiday Time
There will not be a game on 1st October or 8th October due to our fine hosts taking a Holiday. Have a good time away!
Events from 24th Sept 08
The New Base
The players discussed the option of turning in the points from their old base (which previously belonged to Mastermind) and getting a new base, I played around with the figures and came up with the following.
Hero Island [30 points]
An island shrouded in mist just 5 miles from the coast of Freedom City.
A jet plane the size of a jumbo jet.
The Mighty Implausibles decide to retreat to their new island base after Stars discovers some hidden files in the computer of the current base. Stars leaves a Duplicate behind to work on the computer and hopefully discover the content of the missing files.
In the meantime there is another explosion in Freedom City, this time Fool is the target. The team rally around and gather all of The 22 who are living in Freedom City and invite them back to their island.
A medical check-up is requested, so they ask Defiant if he can arrange medical scanning, which he is able to do. The big discovery is they each of The 22 have a microscopic sliver of technology located within their brains.
The old base for some unknown reason bursts into flames and is totally destroyed, with a duplicate Stars. The body is recovered from the inferno and a sliver is located within the corpse too.
The Next Step (3)
The Action List of things to do:
With all this time that the Heroes are giving Jack what kind of evil plot is he going to hatch? Does he want to rule the world, or just turn it into a play thing for imaginably powerful and vast alien demonic beings that corrupt all they touch.
Mastermind
Looks as if his plan is going swimmingly, destroying all of the 22 mistakes which his faulty clone made. Who is next on the list? Does he want the 22 to locate themselves all in one place?

All Talk and No Action - Take 2
This session was not as productive as last weeks one, but there were unforeseen circumstances which I'll not divulge on this blog.
Boom, Boom, Shake the Room
Mighty Lawman's alter ego's home is destroyed by fire. Juggler's home is destroyed by gas explosion. Somebody knows where they live and doesn't like them.
Sun, Moon and Strength
As Mighty Lawman is flying about looking at the devastation caused by the unknown arsonist he takes a flight over to where Sun lives to see if his abode is burning, he finds it occupied by Sun and Moon. They are invited over to the Secret Base, the invitation is accepted with the priviso that Strength can come along too. Mighty Lawman agrees and they all come to visit the Secret Base.
Moon reveales that she can take the form of animals, like a lycanthrope. Specifically a bear, she say's that the bear is BIG! Moon also asks if they have searched throughly the base, as it formally belonged to Mastermind. The team re-search the base and find nothing much, except Stars discovers something in the computer system that is hidden from him.

All Talk and No Action
As this session involved information gathering and revealing secrets I'm not going to worry about the order in which it happened.
Mrs Giovani
The Glass-Spider finally revealed to her team mates that she got married in Vegas to Marcus Giovani. This was met with mixed reactions, however the smokescreen of the other bombs that Glass-Spider dropped the negative reactions really didn't matter.
Facts Revealed about Marcus Giovani:
Iron Mandarin by *D-MAC on deviantART
Eldrich Awakes
Eldrich has finally awoken from the assault that happened a couple of days ago. He has been undergoing epic mental combat with a demonic entity, he is drained but the team still need to get some answers from him.
He capitulates and answers the questions as best he can. The following information is revealed.
The team's dilemma of whom they should be targeting (Cactus Jack or Mastermind) is resolved as Mastermind is only killing The 22; whereas Cactus Jack is out to cause maximum chaos.

Facts Revealed about Marcus Giovani:
- Glass-Spider and Marcus attended the same high school.
- He and his family were the target of the attacks by Cactus Jack; apparently it was one of his ancestors that "ratted out" Jack to Lady Violet Pennyworth so Jack and his gang are just settling a score, by killing all the Giovani's they can.
- The company which Marcus owns is one of the top secret developers for AEGIS (American Elite Government Intervention Service; US government agency established in 1962 to deal with
- superhuman and paranormal threats to public and national safety.)
- Marcus wishes to join the team as a battle suited hero called Defiant. The suit is 90% ready for action and looks just like the amazing picture below.
- Marcus pulled some strings and had Behemoth freed, with the addition of a tracing device. Behemoth's current location is just outside New Orleans.

He capitulates and answers the questions as best he can. The following information is revealed.
- Cactus Jack's immunity to magic comes from a lucky Jackalopes's foot which he wears around his neck.
- Mighty Lawman Snr. may well have joined forces with Cactus Jack.
- Taint is nasty - and can only be removed at a place of power.

Events from 22 Aug 08
At home-base
Glass Spider is interrogated about her husband, as the team didn't know that she was married to Marcus Giovani (the tenth richest man in the world) in Vegas.
The team discuss what is happening:
Breaking news
Glass Spider, Flash, Stars and Juggler
Head to New York for a number of reasons, Glass Spider to visit her husband taking along Stars as he may be able to heal Marcus and Flash for moral support.
Juggler hunts down The Emperor [iii] a Vince Bloomburg who's last known abode is in New York whom she finds. Vince knows she is coming and tells her that all of The 22 are being "removed" as they were a "mistake." Vince is unwilling to help as he believes that he isn't in trouble until Juggler (The Empress [iv]) is dead. Vince also thinks that there will be only one survivor of The 22 at the end but will say no more on the subject.
Glass Spider talks to Marcus and he requests that he get her to his home, atop his corporate headquarters in Freedom City. Eventually this is arranged and Flash opens a portal to the building, where they are met by high tech security guards with strange looking firearms and some doctors. They take Marus away for "life saving surgery" and politely ask the team to leave. Flash attempts to mind read the doctor, this sets off an alarm and the guards start pointing weapons at people. The team are again asked to leave and this time they comply.
Mighty Lawman and Anti-Light
The pair of heroes track down Bill Pardy (The Sun [xix]) to inform him that he is next on the list of a super assassin who is killing off The 22. They find him a little drunk at a bar, apparently he has been attempting to drown his sorrows as he hasn't taken to being a "freak" as well as some of the others. He isn't interested in the warnings as "like the sun I am reborn every morning." As he stumbles out of the bar mumbling to himself that he is going to see Maddie; the duo are thinking of apprehending him, but in the blink of an eye he turns into a streak of light and is gone.
Glass Spider is interrogated about her husband, as the team didn't know that she was married to Marcus Giovani (the tenth richest man in the world) in Vegas.
The team discuss what is happening:
- The World [xxi] has been killed and Judgement [xx] is missing.
- Cactus Jack is out and about and members of his team attacked the Glass Spider while she was meeting the new relations in a nice Italian Restaurant in New York, several of the new relations were killed in the assault.
- Eldrich, who was injured in the assault in New York is still out of things after a few days have passed.
- Cactus Jack - A shaman who sacrificed his people for power over fate. He is known to be immune to all forms of magic. He is the leader and driving force behind the Jackalopes, his goals appear to spread chaos. It is also known that he is able to perform rituals, not hazardous in combat unless he has had time to prepare.
- Brimstone - Before gaining powers the Rev. T Scott was a hell fire and brimstone style preacher who put the fear of God into his parish. On the night of his transformation he had pushed the people too far and they had snapped. They locked him into the church and set it on fire. He may have burnt to death if not for the actions of a single woman from the town who looked up to him. Brimstone's known powers are control over "Hell Fire" (production in blasts and an area around himself) he is also immune to fire.
- Suzy-Floozy - Susette Dove had a hard upbringing, her father mistreated as long as she could remember and she ran away from home as soon as she could. She became a "saloon girl" and was mistreated by more men, strangers this time. The only person who she had any liking for was the local Rev. T Scott when she found out the townsfolk were going to burn him alive in his church she stole a gun and started her one woman crusade to stop their madness. Suzy-Floozy's known powers are that she is awesomely skilled with almost any weapon.
- Railroad - A gambler who gained mental command over metal.
- Behemoth - The origin of Behemoth is unknown, his first appearance was when he ran with Cactus Jack on a daring bank robbery. Behemoth's known powers are that he is extremely resilient to all forms of damage.
Breaking news
- TinkaHULK has been broken out of prison, reports of a normal cat causing havoc are being connected with his escape.
- One of the many Giovani funerals was disrupted by an assault by a pair of super-villains identified as Brimstone and Suzy-Floozy members of Cactus Jack's Jackalopes gang. In this assault Marcus Giovani was seriously injured.
