The first Purger starts dancing around, frantically trying to scrape the heating up amulet off his armour with his rifle, to no avail.<br/><br/>"That answer your question?" asked Ptricia, as the amulet vapourised and shredded the depowered armour. The guard, now protected by nothing more than a pair of boxers and his own fur, staggered and collapsed from the residual shock, and beinbg hit with the gas that still permeated the corridor.<br/><br/>Ptricia grinned and dived under the last Purger, flipping onto her back to slide underneath him as she fired off her second amulet. That's where it all went cockeyed. As one of the others fell, the tip of his rifle waved through the trajectory of the amulet and caught it, knocking it back. Ptricia saw it falling towards her and desperately tried to evade, dumping her back pack in the process. She managed to escape, barely, and so did her back pack, only to have the amulet rebound off the floor and brush one leg.<br/><br/>She collapsed to the floor as it activated, glued to her leg by the sticking charm. She screamed in pain as it started to suck the magical energy out of her, and heat up. Her transformation started to collapse as the energy powering it failed, and she started to expand and shift shape. However, it wouldn't stop there. As a creature with a magical metabolism, magical energy was as vital to her existance as blood. Unless the amulet overloaded before she was drained, it could kill her.<br/><br/>On top of that, while three guards were down, the last one was very much alert, and was starting to bring his rifle round to cover her. While normally her magically tough body would shrug off mere rifle rounds, in her present state, the results might be much worse. Clearly the armour helped pierce the disillusionment spells they were both presumably still under.<br/><br/>There was Ptricia's pack, half open, and the other guards scattered rifles, as well as the downed guards themselves for cover, but apart from that, Chris was now on his own.<br/><br/>OOC: Time for you to start doing your solo awesome.
