>Mock is full of fury and focus, but stumbles over a stall and consequently flops a kick. They trip, but manage to move check to save themselves from a tumble down the ledge - and the follow-up kick is quite solid indeed!

>Spiders, Man dashes across the rooftops and fakes out a Rat. And steals 2 of his dodge, for a passable defense - but then he also Parries, which because of his RP of 1 means the Parry supercedes the dodge. But good footwork, there.

>Amicus introduces someone to the Popper. It does NOT have a fancy name. We do not dignify it with a fancy name. It does not deserve one. It is far, far too unpleasant for that. His target goes down with a critical hit followed by a critical health failure, and can now look forward to 8-12 months of physical recuperation.

>Abnegation shouts a KIYAA and performs one of the Seven Kicks that it is said we are not allowed to say out loud, but I've transposed an approximation of its dread name. Abgnegations target WOULD actually guard against this, unbelievably, but rather fortunately, Pugliste gives it a light tug due to the Grab and that penalizes the Rat just enough that the kick lands dead on and Abnegation can somersault to land on their feet.

That was a rather impressive amount of force right there, masked menaces. I think we've given the Slicerats a mild incentive to consider their criminal activities.
Unfortunately, now that we've made our presence known and taken our their vanguard they're apt to respond in ratty retaliation - once warned and forewarned, foes tend to get harder to take out.
STICK TOGETHER - it's a right poor time to be ganged up on seven on one, and I hear the faint sense of mild crime in the distance. Sure sign more Rats are going to be flooding in, and our night is about to get hectic right quick. Keep your wits about you, it'd be a shame to ruin such fine footwork by ending the night facedown in an alley, bleeding to death.
