ooc: Freebie Reason / Talent FEAT knowledge... Elixir would realize he dosed this guy with enough chloroform to knock out a bull elephant.... enough to do serious damage to a normal human's liver and brain, not to mention drop his blood pressure, cause heart palpitations and possible loss of consciousness and temporary paralysis. And he's barely got watery eyes from it and is conscious enough to complain about the smell of chloroform!!

ooc: that was basically an automatic success... Elixir should be Amazed [50 - hehehe], given his knowledge of medicine and chemistry, that this guy is still standing and reasonably coherent and unfazed after mainlining enough chloroform to drop a charging rhino... he's complaining about the smell. Most people who even sniff chloroform get a little woozy, if not knocked out by it. This guy's taking as much chloroform as Elixir can dish out - enough to incapacitate around ten normal humans - and talking through it...

OOC: ah, got it ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Also, I should have needed to make a red FEAT on the stunt to create chloroform since it isn't mastered yet (used 1x), so let me know if you want that roll, I'll spend Karma to get it to red. Whispering to the blade wielding cape, "Fella, you know how rock scissors paper works? Well powers work that way too, mind control trumps super strength, and mine trump yours, I'm your antidote." Elixir will maintain his hold, and as his additional action, use catalytic control to directly offset the costumed man's healing factor that's cleansing his system, slowing it's rate down to that of a normal human, expecting that the chloroform already in his system will do the rest. Initiative: [attack=614949372539113]

ooc: I kinda gave the chloroform generation as a gimme even though it would have required a Yellow FEAT (by the accelerated powerstunt house rules) to speed things along a bit, because even if it were rolled sucessfully, Raptor's AM resistance to toxins and poisons could shrug it off with a Green FEAT... I gotta give Raptor his due...
Elixir's new declared action however.... uh-oh ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) The costumed man struggles against Elixir's hold on him, seeking to escape it... init: [attack=243398515933985]

The costumed man says, "I don't play rock-paper-scissors, punk! I eat slimy greaseball gangster thugs like you for breakfast!" The costumed man goes limp and drops to his knees, then acrobatically leaps forward, catapulting Elixir off of his back to escape his grapple. Such a manuever would have wrenched and injured the costumed man's neck, but he recovers from it (good ol' regeneration) ooc: Elixir can't apply his Chemical Touch to Raptor, however residual liquid chloroform remains on Raptor's face around his nose and mouth and vaporizing rapidly... it's a solvent in that concentration, but it's not burning Raptor's skin... yet... [depends on the effect Elixir wants to cause that chloroform to have or what effect he wants to use Catalytic Control on Raptor's physiology.... I will say that if Elixir stands there concentrating on his CC power, he might get taken down by Raptor's followup attacks next round... chose the effect desired by CC this round wisely ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) ]

Meanwhile, the crowd in the alley....
"Let's kill this motherfuh..."
"My gun's jammed!"
"Shoot him!"

OOC - you know what, Elixir is pissed off and this is the first chance he's had to let of steam, and he's probably going to make a judgment error here, but let's see how it plays out!
Elixir will concentrate on his Catalytic Control spending Karma to ensure a RED result, plus the necessary amount for this new application of CC:
"Lights out big mouth."
Shut him off, turn it all off, completely.
Elixir sets his mouth in a grim line and let's his concentration take over, ignoring any possible warning signs, he's been goaded and stressed to the edge...

ooc: ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/shocked.png) ooc: "Shut him off, turn it all off completely" is serious Catalytic Control powerstunting ... lots of reactions to shut down in human biochemistry... virtually all of them necessary for survival... the main, top important one being... ooc: New Powerstunt established: Terminate Glycolysis Reactions [Remarkable] [Karma spent 100 + 12 for RED Feat] ===== It was the basic thing in human biochemistry. Anaerobic glycolysis. The ten essential chemical reaction sequences in the human body that govern the conversion of carbohydrates into ATP - energy for cells. Without this process, cells quickly atrophy and die, starved. It is the primary catalytic reaction between cells in the human body. The one Elixir latched upon first in his anger. The one reaction that is omnipresent throughout human physiology. The easiest one to find. Elixir stopped it. Cold. Like a stick jammed in the gears of a machine... All cells in the costumed man's body simply stopped processing energy. Shut down. The costumed man took a step towards Elixir, then collapsed. A confused, pained visage contorts the man's face as all of his cells become starved of energy, unable to even feed upon themselves. His skin takes on a necrotic hue.... ===== ooc: Elixir lost all his remaining Karma for killing ===== Old Joe grabs Elixir by the shoulder, leading him back inside. "Stabbed, beaten. He's finished, man. Come back inside and have a drink. The boys'll clean up the mess." As Elixir is lead back inside, he barely hears the faint crack of point blank range gunshots over the loud band in the Roaring 20s club as it starts to play again. Old Joe laughs and nods at thugs and patrons in the club, going back to business as usual. "You got a name, kid? In all my time I've never seen someone not in the family business get involved in a fight with capes around here. Drinks are on me. Whatcha want?" At the end of the bar, the strange, weathered old man with a goatee that spoke with Elixier earlier stands, translucent like a ghost. He tips his hat at Elixir and walks through a wall, disappearing. ====== Ferine hears murmurs in the crowd that the costumed man was stabbed, beaten, and shot to death out back.

"Whiskey, and my name's Chris. Thanks."
Did that just happen, gotta stay in character, this is my chance to get in, did I just kill that man? Oh my god, gotta keep it together...

"I'm Joe," the old bartender says as he pours Elixir a shot. "I like your spunk, Chris. You gots moxie. You gots balls. You tackled that cape even after he popped out those blades. That took guts, kid. Sloppy style, though. Ever thought about learnin' how to shootfight for real money? You gots the build for it, just need some more ring sense. You could compete, or maybe even help with the business. Lots of people late with their insurance payments these days, if you gets what I'm sayin'"

Elixir musters up a grin and responds, "Yeah, that would be a great opportunity, it's not everyday you get a chance like this..."

Old Joe pours Elixir another shot of whiskey, surprised that his glass is already empty.
"Whoa there madman, this is top shelf sippin' whiskey. The night is young..."
ooc: Elixir doesn't feel a thing, and won't [digestive adaptability...]
"So, what's a big guy like you do for a living? You got flashy clothes, the hundred dollar cover charge keeps the riff-raff outta here.... Why'd you jump into that fight with that cape? Don't get me wrong, he needed his ass whooped, all capes do. But we coulda handled all that. You here to impress somebody? Looking to party with the big boys?"
