"Iffu this pranut no fighter back, why they bombu and kir so many?!" Shingu said with greater determination and frustration. He thought about casting another tongues spell, just to make himself understood.
"This is sraughter! They kir for no reason!"

"There's a reason - because they can. Because they want to. Because they enjoy their power. Just like the damned Loks." The Captain hissses out, his scars now blood red against his face.
Fegh, you find a member of the police forces and get his stunner weapon. "I...this is unimaginable! This has to be a VR sim." He punches the side of his head for some reason.
Balus, Shingu, Reika and Krystal, you see landing ramps open on the alien ship.

Krystal watches as the landing ramps come down and using her vision focuses to see what comes out. (ahhh solar power)

Balus didn't like this standing back and waiting, but he would follow any orders given by the captain. He stood next to Krystal while looking at Shingu, not understanding much of what he said. finally, he couldn't help it," I have no idea what you are trying to stay, but just hang on. I'm sure we'll get a chance to fight back for the locals if they won't do it themselves."

"Baka to come and destroy and enesrave!" Shingu said with almost a growl. "We shuud fight them now to say their invasuun is no good!" He grabbed his wooden sword's hilt and began to pace without drawing it.
"Gunchou (apparently a term for leader), I not know the Roks, but if they destroy, like the men in this UFO destroyu, then I weud join your fight too! This-a pranut do nothing to offendu! I think yoursuru no offend neither!"

Doors on the big drop ships open as all you hear is the crunch of metal on metal. Thousands upon thousands of soldiers, each as broad as Balus, but over 3 meteres in height and covered from head to toe in blood red armor march out. Each trooper carries a long red pike with a golden spearpoint at the end.
From seemingly everywhere, you can hear a booming voice, the sound of the troops marching is used for a drum beat to a lyrical tune. Each of you hears these same words clearly and in your native tongue
"WHO IS YOUR LORD AND LIFE AND YOUR WAY?"
"RAWG! RAWG!" The troopers respond, now pounding their spears in tune.
"WHO GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO FIGHT AND WIN THIS DAY?"
"RAWG! RAWG!"
"WHO GIVES YOU THOUGHTS AND JOY AND CRY?"
"RAWG! RAWG!"
"WHO TELLS YOU WHEN TO LIVE AND DIE?"
"RAWG! RAWG!"
"WHO GIVES YOU STRENGTH AND DRIVE?"
"RAWG! RAWG!"
"WHO CONTROLS YOUR THOUGHTS UNTIL THE END OF TIME!"
"RAWG! RAWG!"
Von practically collapses, as if something is physically striking her.

Fegh was trying to find a member of the police force when he hears the sound from the troops. He pauses briefly listening to what is said before he continually looks around trying to find a police "officer" and retrieve its weapon.

Krystal just looks at the ship and tries to figure it out completely. "Well that is different. It is almost as if it is a holy crusade or something."

Balus moved so he didn't block anyone's view, then folded his arms. " This can't be good. I really don't want to know who Rawg is."[rand=80228551566304447040727774427739903427082373438914169208796674038]

[dice=20] save
Shingu watched the parade in horror. There were so many coming from the landing craft. They were massively built, and with the red armor and spears, reminded the demon queller of a phalanx of ashigaru armed with yari.
Then, he had a plan. Talk of Rawg struck him as a prayer chant of a sort. Rawg could be some divine overlord like the Emperor of Japan or a celestial figure even. Forces of nature could be taken as an omen by the ignorant and superstitious. The natives of this plane seemed ignorant of magic. Perhaps a little chicanery in Rawg's name could halt the invasion before it could get a footing.
Shingu shot Reika a wink and wandered forward, using what cover he could, toward the invading forces. He looked for anyone appearing to be a leader-officer, priest or both at the front of the column- and stopped. Then, still with a good distance between himself and the invaders, mumbled just loud enough to be heard by himself.
(Call lightning incantation, I am not sure what damage scale to use)
A bright flash from the sky above zaps down to the chosen target, followed by a sizzling sound and a loud boom. The lightning bolt struck the warrior leader (if one could be identified), a standard bearer or one of the soldiers at the front of the column.
Shingu put on his hat and returned to the others with a mischievous grin. "Rawgu maybe had other thought about inva-sun."[rand=7141146786989601388870354773028882912163714515633120988129497708]

(Shingu - it's 1D6 per level of experience for Call Lightning)
The crimson giants have featureless faceplates - it's difficult to tell if they are even living beings or some sort of robot, were it not for the fierce voices that echo out of the helmets when attacked.
"DIE FOR RAWG!" As they lower their lances, and red energy crackles towards you
[dice=20] (strike)
Balus and Krystal can see the confrontation between Shingu and the invaders.
Meanhwhile Fegh finds a police officer, armed only with a stun baton and short range sonic stunner. The officer is clearly in shock from the planetary bombardment.[rand=8256673045446667040259721878138731742316090986610604883971661905]

"What the ...," Balus said in disbeleif as he watched," Is he crazy? He'll get us all killed!" He groaned," Krystal, stay with the captain please. I gotta go save our new friend so I can kill him later for getting us deeper in theis mess." He looked at the Captain," With your permission, sir?"

Dodge [dice=20]+5
Shingu wondered what made the invaders think one man could control lightning, but apparently they weren't as dumb as he thought. It wasn't ideal, but it might not ruin his plan.
He broke into a sprint away from the group, and caught a glance to see how many gave chase. If he could isolate a few, maybe his plan would still work. Clearly, though, these weren't "primitive screwheads" that had never seen a boomstick, and could accept the idea of one man manipulating elements.
As he ran, he leaped over large pieces of rubble, some nearly 10 feet high, hoping the debris would slow the Rawgers down. Then he searched for a spot, preferably a blind corner to confront the chasers.[rand=87532586419446898591664040163146269511816847761743554195148656794]
