12th oath of moment: Gauntlet Run. Backdated over the course of this weekend

[lunawolves10th]

[It began, as many things do with Garviel, with an Oath. In this case an oath to keep Merem from feeding on the blood of drones for 3 days. Unlike every other oath he has made since he came to mayfield, Garviel is having a truly difficult time keeping it. Because the monster is -fast- Fast enough to outrun bullets. Even a transhuman in speed-

Action 6

[boostedfailure]

[Watching the beat up killbot/man walk by Michael shakes his head]

"Woah there, your power suit is making really nasty sounds there. You keep riding it like that and you're going to to be down to being just a... Frighteningly huge person."

[lunawolves10th]

I would prefer to lose it than let one more innocent die.

[boostedfailure]

"If you loose it, you won't be able to help a lot of people. Right?"

[lunawolves10th]

...

There is some truth in what you say, yes.

[boostedfailure]

"Trust me on this one, you run your gear into the ground and you can't do your job. You know some super villains like to run guys ragged like that JUST for that purpose, so that after they broke down and everything all their buddies can go on a super crime spree."

[lunawolves10th]

I'm fairly sure the foe I'm facing has no partners.

[boostedfailure]

"That doesn't make the other sociopathic killers in this town any less real."

[lunawolves10th]

Which sociopathic killers are you referring to, exactly?

[boostedfailure]

"There's that milk man dude, and the little girl that's in charge and the psychotic post man... And that's not even starting on the Gothamites."

[lunawolves10th]

The postman is... not as psychotic as you might think. There is balance in his actions.

As for the others, they are undoubtedly malefactors.

But let us start on the Gothamites, please.

[boostedfailure]

"Ok. They may be your buddies here, and they MAY have even been stable before, but now the Bat is here. So don't expect it to last."

[lunawolves10th]

You haven't explained who. Or who the bat is. Is he someone I need to kill?

[boostedfailure]

"The Bat is a hero. Maybe the best of us. But the Gotham rogues... Well, lets just say the rogues gravitate towards their hero it seems. That and they feed the worst in each other."

[lunawolves10th]

I'm afraid I don't understand.

Why doesn't a hero slay his foes?

[boostedfailure]

"Cause if you kill them, they don't have a chance to get better. Most of them are sick."

[lunawolves10th]

There is more wisdom in your words than I had initially thought.

[he sighs.]

I wish my battles were able to be dealt with in such a way.
