OOC: The shot happened, and I expect a response. Sure, other characters can react, but they wouldn’t be able to stop the bullet.
I would greatly object to that. Eric spent a decent amount of time aiming, and this is a single shot indoors with the target having no idea he is being targeted. The chances of it missing are pretty low. Now sure, the bullet might not be fatal immediately, but it’d be a pretty serious wound.
OOC: This is really the best alternative, assuming that Mark receives medical help in time and all. However I’d say it’s equally likely that he’d die.
OOC: The blast. I figured that anything solid enough to strike and kill a person would be able to be knocked out of the way by a fast enough strike, or at least the electric energy could ‘overcharge’ the shot with elemental energy(in a way), making it implode.
IC: Hitora looks around for where the shot came from.
Storm Izin tried to stay standing.
Nuuma heard the shot and rushed for the ruins, drawing both swords.
OOC: I mean, I don’t quite see how two different elemental energies would be able to interact, but by suspension of disbelief right?
Although I’m slightly miffed that what would’ve been a very successful attempt to incapacitate Mark failed
IC: Anyways, with the first shot having failed and the elemental of surprise gone, Eric switches the blaster to fully automatic and fills the hall with elemental blasts while retreating out of the ruins.
OOC: I mean, they both are acting as physical materials, to allow the indicate damage you are attempting to inflict, so it’s like if two bullets perfectly hit each other, i.e. The matching opposing forces stop each other.
Hitora’s shield flies in front of him to protect him, although only barely, since it was made to deflect physical attacks, not elemental. He is still wounded quite heavily.
Izin is hit by many as he pulls up a sort of makeshift ice wall, passing out behind it.
