Not to Choose Is Not a Choice

{{underconstruction|comment=needs template formatting?}}
{{encounter
|name=Not to Choose Is Not a Choice
|image=roof-silhouette.jpg
|desc=You see a sinister figure lurking on a nearby rooftop. With a battlecry for justice you leap after the figure, which quickly turns and runs. After a minute of pursuit, the figure ducks around a corner and you hear numerous voices shouting. Cautiously you peek around the corner a few moments later, to see a diverse party of four heroes picking themselves up from the ground. "We've gotta stop that guy!" you shout. All four heroes jump to action, each in their own way.

The psion says, "Help me think of a way to outsmart him!" while the gadgeteer says "Help me rig up a gadget to trap him!" The naturalist says, "No, we've got to hunt him down like an animal!"

Who do you want to partner with?}}

==Help the psion think==
{|
|width="700"|<font size="+1" color="990000">Thoughtful</font>
<br>
Siding with the psion, you sit down to do some intensive thinking. Pretty soon you've got city maps, traffic flow charts, escape route probability analyses, and all kinds of info put together. Eventually you realize the opponent is long gone, but it was a good mental workout.

You gain '''5 intellect points'''

==Help the gadgeteer build==
{|
|width="700"|<font size="+1" color="990000">Fast-Acting</font>
<br>
You and the gadgeteer start emptying out your pockets and quickly rig up a whole series of traps and alarms with the available gear. In your enthusiasm to dive into the work the foe escapes, but it was good practice.
<br><br>
You gain '''5 reflex points'''

|}
==Help the naturalist chase==
{|
|width="700"|<font size="+1" color="990000">Strong</font>
<br>
You and the naturalist set off in a dead sprint, racing each other across the rooftop, challenging each other to jump the gap and speed along the next building, and the next, and several after that. Somewhere along the way you lose the enemy, but it's a very good workout.

You gain '''5 strength points'''

Radiation Lab

2008-08-01T03:57:28Z

Xoutkastx3:

Back to the [[Take_the_Portal_to_the_Space_Station|Space Station]]

As you enter the lab, the radiologist on duty explains that [[Susan Novak]] has left some notes with them, explaining how measured doses of the right kind of modulated radiation would likely prove re-energizing for someone with your types of powers. Sure, the same dose would be dangerous or deadly for a normal human, but that's nothing for you to worry about.

If you enter the Radiation Lab with the maximum amount of PP, you will get the following message:

You tell the radiologist you're feeling fully energized at the moment anyway, and duck back out.

If you enter the Radiation Lab with less than the maximum number of PP, then you will get the following message:

You say that you're feeling a little drained, and ask what the process would entail.

The radiologist says, "Well, we'd use the window there and use a combination of filters and polarization to dose you with the right types of radiation. There's a small fee for my time and the computing costs, just ''8*X''(where X=number of PP restored) chips for the whole package."

It costs 8 chips for each PP point you want to restore.

On paying for the restore, you receive the message:

The radiologist has you stand in front of a shaded window, and then scuttles behind a metal shield. Clicks and whirs come from his direction. Moments later the material in front of the window shimmers and swirls, and you feel yourself bathed in a suffusing warmth. When the window shimmers back into its normal dark tint, you feel fully recharged.

I Have a Bridge to Sell You

{{Merit_Badge
|desc=For your curious but certainly dedicated investment in the snowflake board, I award you this badge. I've got a bridge out in the desert that you might be interested in, too. No? Pity.

|reqs=A whole ton of chips...}}
==References==
This merit badge is a reference to a common phrase: "I've got some beach front property in Kansas to sell you." Or other variations thereof. The phrase is usually used when referring to someone's gullibility. Like spending a lot of money on something worthless. Or in this case, a lot of chips on just a merit badge.

|desc= Holy moly, that's a nice wooden cup! You're not quite sure what's so special about it, but everybody seems to want one, so naturally you do, too. If you pick this as your talisman, you can rest assured that you will not have chosen poorly. It's apparently very good for smiting your foes with a furious anger, but not so good for avoiding being smote right back.

+10% to hit<br>
+3 XP per combat<br>
-15% dodging ability}}

==How Obtained==
The [[pitch-black knight]] at the [[Guild for Imaginative Metachronism]] drops it rarely.

Studio executive

{{fight
|pronoun=a
|name=studio executive
|desc=An obviously addled and confused studio executive is out here in the desert, cruising Area 54 in search of his studio. He seems somewhat hyperactive and keeps muttering strange catch-phrases to himself.
|image=Studio-executive.jpg
|hit=* Your opponent attacks ... The executive pulls out a vial of powdered mojo, takes a pinch of it, and then proceeds to pummel you rapidly. He hits you for {{element|physical|X}}.
* Your opponent attacks ... The executive strikes out with an awkward but effective karate chop. "Does that make you randy, baby?" he shouts. If by "randy" he means "hurt a lot" then yeah, it does. Otherwise, no, not so much. He hits you for {{element|physical|X}}.
* Your opponent attacks ... He screams into the night air like a fireman going to a window that has no fire ... so then he sets you on fire. Ow! He hits you for {{element|physical|X}}.
|critical=unknown
|miss=* Your opponent attacks ... The executive whistles loudly. A miniature version of himself jumps out from behind some bushes, charges you, and begins to kick you with his little feet. You almost pull a muscle trying not to laugh, but otherwise it doesn't hurt much.
* Your opponent attacks ... The executive starts to attack, but gets caught up in dancing when a Queen song blasts from the boom-box he's carrying. By the time the song is over, he's forgotten what he was doing.
* Your opponent attacks ... He spends five minutes trying to explain how studio executives are like onions. It doesn't make much sense, but it doesn't hurt, either.
|fumble=Your opponent attacks ... Your foe fumbles! He takes '''X damage.'''
