Around Town, Wednesday Afternoon

Beau had a splatter of green paint across one cheek, several more locks of hair than usual falling out of her topknot, and a ferally delighted grin on her face.

She'd just been out on a run around town (her second of the day, don't judge her) when she came across the paintball war as it happened to start spilling out into town, and a lucky shot from one of the Monday morning gym regulars had grazed her.

So now she was darting all around the place, trying to find pockets of skirmishing and ... maybe hoping to bait people into shooting at her. Look, she was quick and dodgy and could catch arrows out of the air and didn't get much of a chance to do that last thing around here.

So.

"Come on, fuckers, come get me!"

Hey, at least paintballs counted as nonlethal damage, so she wasn't going to end up having to make death saving throws again Which should be a relief to the several people who weren't a fan of watching her get her ass knocked out in a fight again. And hey, your one 6HP heal per day ability was safe this time, Yasha.

[OOC: So open! I wanted to play with Beau's canon Deflect Missiles ability, so I figured it would be easier to just make one post rather than have to explain it a million times.

So this is how it works, adapted for Fandom purposes: I'm going to roll a d10 and add 10 to the result to determine how much "damage" she can attempt to negate in reaction to a shot. Then, because I am not figuring out attack/damage modifier stats for all of you, I'll roll 3d12 to see how much "damage" you do, with a bonus of 10 if your character is a marksman. If that total beats the first one, it's a hit, otherwise she gets to swat the paintball out of the air and try to throw it back/ricochet it at you because D&D monks are ridiculous. I'll assume your shots are on target unless you specify that they're not.

Yes, I am absolutely rolling for this and will give results in an OOC note. Yes, I have enough dice at my work desk to do it. Yes, I put way too much thought into it.]

That would be one clean, straight shot to the back of Beau's back, because Illyana was not above fighting dirty.

And then immediately firing off a second shot, to try and take advantage of her sneak attack.

To be fair, Illyana was probably a bit more rabid than your regular gnoll. And she had the high ground.

But she apparently hadn't been spotted yet, so she fired off a third shot to push her luck before she had to teleport away.
