1) Referring to the "Champions" maneuver "Characters as Weapons", if a character has missile deflection vs. thrown attacks, and gets her KOed teammate thrown at her by an enemy brick, can she missile deflect the poor unconscious sot to a soft landing?

2) What if the enemy brick throws one of his own teammates, using a "Fastball Special"? Could the fastball be reflected back?

1. Yes, a character can Missile Deflect a person used as a missile. It’s up to the GM whether he can do so without hurting the missile, but as a default I, at least, would rule against a “soft landing.” At the very least the character would have to make some sort of roll to do that.

2. Characters cannot Missile Deflect “fastballs.
