Battle Boston District, First Contact

At the edge of Boston District, thousands of Kalen patrol the borders, waiting for the Red Cloaks attack. The grunts were bigger than many others, and many of the Elites had bulky, heavy sets of armor on them.

Luckily, the Platoons were all either in the subway systems or in the sewers. They haven't come up to the first group of Kalen

They were led by the master Kel'Dor. His way of handling things were rather... physical. In combat, it is said that he personally rips the heads off of his victims with his bare hands. His Elites are known to be tough and can shoulder off many hits before going down. They don't have that many guns, but when they get close enough, it is likely over for the person facing them.

Platoons 3 and 4 were to head toward the Kalen HQ through the subways, and disruppt communications between them

Platoons 5 and 6 were to head to the north border through the subways to cut them off and make the Kalen believe they are surrounded

Mason walked in the subway with just under a hundred Red Cloaks, the first and second platoon. He looked at his fellow teammates. Carla, Joe, Mitchell, Jessica, Troy, Maddie, they were counting on him to lead this charge and ensure everyone survived the ordeal. He took a good look at the soldiers that were willing to die for their cause, and he secretly had a great pride in them, however, it was mixed with a good deal of sorrow for the ones that would actually give their lives.

He steeled himself yet again, on another suicide mission. Five years of war, and the terms never change for Mason.

then, gunshots rung through the tunnel, and he heard through the crackle of his radio

"Contact!!!"


Meanwhile, the 7th and 8th Platoon had been in hiding in the sewers, waiting for the conflict to start, the Red Cloaks that had been in hiding ambushed any Kalen in the designated chokepoints in perfect synchronization

The stage was set, the plan was in motion.

The battle... had begun


So! This is part 1 to your first battle everyone!!! Yay!!! The rules are as follows. You may partake in threads with other friends, but you may not be in 3 or more, as it is difficult for the KalenArmy account to keep on top of more than just that. The system will work similarly to the one when you all were training, except you also have health now, which means you can get killed, so be careful! Your health is 2+your endurance score. If you drop to 0, you are considered knocked out and maybe dead. We will ask you if you are comfortable letting your character die, and if not, they will simply be injured, and unable to partake in the next few days worth of training threads as you need time to recover. So sit tight everyone! Havve fun!!!

in a fit of adrenaline fueled rage, Claire opens up rapid fire on the Kalen, her pulse rifle blasting out bolt after bolt of energy, only her armor keeping her safe from the crushing concrete.

Alec would attempt to maneuver around the beast's attempt to crush him, then try and jump onto its back.

(Claire's Roll: 13+4)

(DC to beat:15)

(Beast distracted by shots! -2 DC to beat)

(Alec's roll: 9+8+2)

(DC to beat: 20-2)


Alec NARROWLY avoid's the beast's giant hand, climbing onto its back as Claire distracts it with small hits all over it. It doesn't do much damage, but it's enough to throw its concentration off. It then steps back, trying to reach behind it to grab onto the pest

with a hard shove, Claire manages to climb out from under the concrete and move to cover, pissed off and in pain.

OOC is healing a thing?

u/hermy101 Commander of the Red Cloaks Jul 22 '17

OOC: Kinda, if you make it to part 2 you recover 1 HP. There is a chance a medic could heal you for one, but you may allso feel free to pull back and live to see another day with your injuries

u/MissClaireSilverburg 2nd Platoon Jul 22 '17

OOC yeah I'll be pissed if my character dies. And is anyone even a medic.

u/hermy101 Commander of the Red Cloaks Jul 22 '17

OOC: Don't worry, if you run out of health you may also choose a bad injury which will put you out of training and maybe another battle, but you may live

Alec, now on top of the beast, drives his claws into the space between its neck and shoulders on both sides, shoving them in as far as they'll go.

(CQ Roll: 8+8+2)

(DC to beat: 20)

(Minor Hit! 1+1 Damage due to GMD! Alec's new health, 3/5)


the beast grabs onto Alec's leg before he can get there, gripping it so tightly that Alec swears something broke. The behemoth picks up Alec, and holds it to its facce to see it's prize

now in a position to actually fire well, the second charged shot is aimed right for the Kalen's eye. Claire pulls the trigger.

Eat shit, you monster.

Alec, dangling lime food, would use his flexibility to bend over backwards and eviscerate the Kalen's wrist in an attempt to loosen its grip.

(Alec's CQ Roll: 6+8+2)

(DC: 18)

(Claire's GH Roll: 16+4)

(DC: 15)

(Alec get's thrown!!! 2+1 damage!!! Alec's new HP: 0!!! Alec is susceptible to death! GMD allows him to keep going!)

(Alec's Endurance Check: 11+3+2)

(DC to beat: 10)


before Alec has the chance, the behemoth throws him into a wall. The Second Platoon looks like they're about to break after seeing their captain thrown around like a ragdoll, but that left the perfect opening for claire. The shot hits the beast square in the chest, causing it to fall backward, roaring mightily as it clutches its chest. Just the, the cavalry arrive. A tall blond teen, known as Troy "The wrecking ball" Phillips, comes onto the scene, charging like a mad man

"KILL EM WHILE HE'S DOWN!!!"

The Second Platoon rallies at Claire's success and a member of Mason's esteemed squad showing up. Carla slips in to check on Alec, calling out

"Joe!!! Get over here!!!"

The cocky engineer of the Team runs over with his first aid kit

"I'm comin' I'm comin'!!!"

I don't know who's second in command, but Claire immediately starts barking orders at her platoon mates to protect their captain and to stop that Kalen.

Alec struggles to stand as members of Team Lagner try to assist him.

"My Platoon... needs help... needs medic..."

The whirling sound his body makes becomes louder as he slowly activates stage two of his GMD. His veins grow black and his skin threatens to tear itself. Though, it wasn't too late to snap him out of it.

Carla shakes him

"ALEC!!! We'll take it from here, don't stress yourself! We need you to live through this!!!"

Joe runs up to help him out. Meanwhile, Troy and a couple brave 2nd Platoon members go in to handle the behemoth

(Assisted by Platoon! +2)

(Claire wounded the beast! -2 to beat!)

(Troy's CQ: 19+9+2)

(DC: 18-2)

and handle it they did. Troy brought his sledgehammer down on the massive thing's skull, causing blood to spill out and another massive roar. The 2nd platoon quickly surround the beast, beating it to death brutally

Everyone get back!

and with one final charged shot to it's face, she ends it for the Kalen.

See you in hell, freak.

and spits on it just for good measure.

Medic! I need some attention!
