Things are coming to a head in Halcyon City. Oversight (well, Brahma) is attacking Pheonix Academy, claiming Hellbinder and Alias have corrupted the kids at the school for nefarious purposes, all so he can cover up heinous things he’s done in the past.
Meanwhile, Ember’s mom is playing with file – literally, her fire powers that she only ever learned to repress, never control.

The team finally frees Colin from the Invictus addiction, drives back Cephalos, and learns more about the terrible psychic squid’s history.
(And there was, as the title suggests, a LOT of comfort and supports.)

It’s Kaylee’s birthday, and the end of the first week of REAL LIFE high school for our players, so between birthday cake, rehashing school, decompression, and half the team needing an early bedtime for marching band practice the next morning…
… and introducing some totally amazing character art I got commissioned for the girls (art by charcooll on Instagram) …
It was a pretty short session. Thank goodness we’ve had the good play-by-post action going on.
It’s gym class, and S.U.R.G.E. has everyone fighting annoying opponents in 1v1s. It doesn’t go well, but hey: everyone gets potential?
Also: Palacine thinks everything going wrong is her fault.

We’ve had a looooooong stretch where we’ve been unable to play Masks with my daughter’s group. To deal with the withdrawal, I ran solo play-by-post things with each player, both to move some plotlines and, at their request, get some time with their boyfriends. It went really well! (Some players take to PbP better than others, and I’ve never been great at keeping such things up in the long term, but for this, it was pretty awesome.)
Anyway, for the sake of completeness, here’s are links to the three “between” arcs that happened.
- Ember, Unmasked – In which Ember decides to just be herself.
- Silhouette, Flying Blind – Sil learns some disturbing things.
- Palacine, Hearts and Minds – Palacine starts the long fight to free Colin from the chemical grips of Invictus.
Session 15 tonight! I am excited.
The team has a LOT of stuff going on. A LOT. So much happens, you guys.
It’s one of those sessions where the most common roll is Take a Powerful Blow.

Oh, and it seem like Vanquish is sneaking secret soldiers onto the planet or something. Whatever.
