How does Ann take on the cops without getting killed?
Added 2018-06-21 01:52:27 +0000 UTCA couple of days ago somebody asked me if Ann could take bullets, and whether her (rather skimpy) armor would protect her. Here's my answer:
Her armor is thick, and made out of a strong steel alloy. It's at least somewhat bulletproof. Her bracers definitely are. But you're right, much of her is unprotected, and she doesn't want to get shot if she can avoid it. Her strategy is to fight quickly and aggressively enough that the police don't get a chance to take a shot at her, and to ensure that she uses everything at her disposal.
In that regard she's a bit like Wonder Woman or Captain America, circa their recent movies. They probably both could have survived getting shot, but through a mix of speed, skill, luck, and the fact that they're characters in a superhero movie, they almost always manage to avoid getting hit in the first place.
Of course, Ann is fifteen feet tall and weighs more than a ton, which presents some advantages and disadvantages. It's a disadvantage in that it makes her a bigger target, but she also has intimidation on her side, as well as superhuman strength. She uses cover when necessary, but otherwise likes to fight as aggressively as possible. When she's in a bad position she uses human shields, or throws heavy objects or people at her attackers, knocking them off guard long enough that it's safe to get to melee range.
If it came to it she could take some bullets and survive, at least assuming they're not hits to the head or the heart. And even then she could probably survive a single bullet, with a little luck; her strength and resilience goes a bit beyond what you'd expect purely based on her size. Aside from a direct hit to the heart, getting shot with a normal bullet almost certainly wouldn't kill Ann instantly. The only thing it would be guaranteed to do would be to send Ann into a rage, which is bad news for any nearby cops...

Other option - Ann grows to 900 feet tall and thus becomes impervious to tiny bullets ;-)

2018-06-22 00:39:00 +0000 UTCThe standard 9mm would probably have enough velocity to at least pierce Ann’s skin, but she carries too much solid bulk on her frame for a bullet to reach her vitals. That being said, she does have a background in combat sports. Her agility wouldn’t allow for her to remain in a position long enough for an attacking shooter to line up a solid shot that would inflict any incapacitating damage and her threshold for pain would only allow those shots to do nothing more than piss her off. And as it’s been said before, this is a massive beast of a woman who is nearly three times the size of the average man, so maintaining their composure to fire a steady array of shots would require super-human levels of intestinal fortitude. And as we all know, there’s only room for one super human in this story.

2018-06-21 20:47:22 +0000 UTCTo be fair, I don't think the police academy properly trains their officers how to stay calm in a situation with a 15 foot tall woman that can and will tear them apart with her bare hands. I'd have trouble standing up and not running away, let alone even thinking about taking a shot. Sure she's a big target, but that doesn't really matter if everyone is too scared to even fire a shot/fire a shot well
