    Alastor

    Alastor remains there in his cover, watching, waiting. A weave had occurred and been broken. If another spell came, he'd be ready to shut it down. Kaze was doing just fine. Magic would be employed strategically.

    Holding in preparation. If no counter becomes necessary, Alastor will take a different action.

    Nimbus

    Dark shadows scatter in ordered symmetrical patterns traversed by a crackling pallid silver light that wraps Winter in a pleasantly numbing and icy coldness.
    When vulgar magic is cast, the frequency of the oscillation of the dark fluid surges until the shadows arrange themselves in a solid black halo around Winter's head, the white light darkens into a fiery black sunlight and his eyes are set ablaze with vivid incandescence.

    A fellow Guardian once described their jobs as akin to that of a mall cop. The practice of policing a bunch of hooligans and see that they don't bring the whole house down. In hindsight, there was much wisdom in those words. But even for the trigger-happy discipline so common among some Arrows, trenchcoats and katanas were a tad too much for simple reconnaissance work. What's wrong with just tailing a suspect?, the Guardian ponders. Still, the woman had caught his attention, while reading himself for a fight, the Susceptor decides to keep on observing from his vantage point.

    "Get Outta Here!" Fedora yells before hurling himself into a stunning display of flying fists aimed squarely at Kaze. It would have been beautiful to behold in slow motion: a series of strikes - not body blows - aimed at Kaze's sword arm and anticipating the effects of his shielding spells.


    Luckily for the Obrimos, Fedora had the right technique but lacked the right timing. There was insufficient force behind the flurry of blows. This time.

    During the fracas, the Mystery Woman completed her scrambling dive, rolled and attempted to run for her waiting car.

    Like Fedora, she failed to get her timing right and found herself held up by the bumbling Coat Man.

    Alastor

    No magic? All right. Kaze had it covered; the fellow's overextension would be his downfall.

    Instead of acting directly in the fight, the commander of the Arrow turned his attention to the woman who was running for her car, imagining a powerful connection suddenly being made between them as he overcame the Lie of Space to create new bonds between them even as the area around him seemed to bend inward, as though trying to capture the Unchained.

    The woman's dive could take her off. The car could run her away.

    So be it.

    Alastor could find her later.

    Acting afterward since no Counterspell is required.

    Chaos. Noun. Complete disorder and confusion.

    Least favorite state? Affirmative.

    Reduce? No. Increase? Unsure if that was possible.

    Goal instead: stop the fleeing (correct though it may be) & clearly intended murder

    Unlike chaos of ahead scene, glyphs manifest with clarity.

    Sand is aiming to make the ground beneath the group slick. Prevent anyone from running away with ease or fighting until answers are obtained.

    Kaze feels the ground become slippery, sees the man he is determined to stop fall, struggling with the slick surface. He forms an image, focuses, summoning Power to fill the form of events in his mind, and SHOUTS!

    "DOWN!!!"


    The Word instantly becomes a deafening BOOM, and powerful force, pushing on all of the people immediately close to Kaze, forcing them to struggle to stand erect!

    Using the extra success to contest the Knockdown rolls:
    The Mage utters any brief word or syllable, which instantly becomes a deafening thunderclap. Anyone within the affected area, one-yard centered on the mage is subject to Knockdown effect: the must roll Dex+Athletics to remain on their feet. Characters knocked down to the ground loose their next action as they regain their footing. Dramatic Failure indicates that the victim takes a hard fall and suffers a point of bashing damage as well. The mage may use the spell's extra successes to contest the target's Knockdown rolls, or may use them to extend the area of effect, with each extra success doubling the area (2-yard radius with 2 successes, 4-yards with 3 successes and so on.) She must apply the choice to all targets though: her successes either make the sound louder or make it travel farther.


    Spells: Monthly Rits Transform Aura (aura appears to be a sleeper) Spell Cloaks (See mini-sheet)
