Heart of the Tempest

I'm bloody glad that explosive worked as well as it did. I'm also bloody glad that Hoof can shrug off assault cannon fire. But in the end, drones aren't a match for the power of Thor, and even a Roadmaster just takes some effort. Oh, and we made a background count with that explosive. And a big crater. Right on a major road, heh heh heh.

Crazy Hoof

That was fun. They tried to tickle me with their little weapons. They even made a Ram attempt. But they misjudged quite a bit. Hoof is bigger than vehicles. Heart of the Tempest can really dish it out with their magic. But you can expect that from a Banshee. MMMMUUUUHHHHH
