DC Modern - Session 7 - 6/22/20

I am off this week in Merry old Metropolis with our drawing winner Victor Dupree.  I will be spending New Year's Eve watching the big "L" drop while almost every person that is part of Project Everyman does a flying Parade.  

I leave you dear Gatewayians with our usual Larry, Moe, Curly and Shemp.  

See you in the new year! 

From the Journal of Achilles 

Donna dispatches Ferdinand from another embassy to be our liaison. She will be assuming the role of Wonder Woman since Diana is not likely to return. She provides the equivalent of a “letter of introduction” to get Hippolyta’s help, but just our use of the Staff of Hermes should be enough.

 Ferdinand arrives. He would like to hire a housekeeper and groundskeeper.

The Spear of Destiny was apparently taken by the US government after the war, where it remained hidden until the “Spectre incident” 6 years ago. We still decide to take it from 1946.

Orichalcum takes us to the past with the Staff. We’re still in Gateway City. Spear is at base in Gotham so we teleport there and plan to infiltrate after dark. In the meantime we cash in gold we brought for cash. In Chinatown, Orichalcum buys a watch from a familiar-looking boy. Grandfather? The watch sings, but only so she can hear. It melts into her hand.

At night, we go to the base. Orichalcum pretends to be drunk to distract guards. She see strange lights in the base go up into the sky. See Magic? Rachael and I are flying but our magic items lose power and we crash to the ground as we approach where we think the Spear is. Spear negated our powers! We end up fleeing since all of our powers are gone. Rachael and Quantum are captured, but Achilles escapes and reunites with Orichalcum and Li’l Grandfather in Chinatown. The others escape and eventually join up. We decide to seek out Wonder Woman and the Justice Society.
