Project Prometheus (Original Setting Superhero Quest)

[X] to investigate the building on your own, while Black Swan distracts the swarm.

Let's not have Black Swan blow up the building while we are inside it.
 
Mona revealing her secret identity was quite a shock. Now that it's out there, I don't think it'll take long before the news spreads to the rest of Horizon City. Is this common practice in Horizon? Mona's lucky her mother is in the Ladder already.

Inspector Gerome Du Bois was a long-time member of the Worker's Mitt Citizen's Militia. Citizen militias were common in the early days of Horizon, when it was still corporate-dominated. There had been virtually no peacekeeping force outside of corporate security, so enclaves of workers organized their own. In recent times, they had mostly fallen by the wayside as major security companies emerged with specializations in law enforcement. However, the Worker's Mitt clung stubbornly to their anti-corporate pasts and so continued to fund the WMCM.

This does sound like Horizon City has no formal police force, not one that answers to City Hall alone at least. It's all subcontracted to PMCs, Superheroes, and the rare Citizen's Militia.

All the more reason to keep Powers from grabbing more territory since they're corporate lapdogs. It would be a stain on the history of the Worker's Mitt if they ended up under the thumb of Dominion Security Concerns.
 
Those 1's PHYSICALLY hurt me. Thats.... just ouch, hate to see it. But yeah we need every advantage we can get.

Making your identity publicly known is more common that not. That was always the plan with Black Swan—you intended to use the coincidental fact that she was a Justice Unlimited intern to hide Project Prometheus' existence.

Horizon has no police force, or even a central government. It is technically a UN-chartered supra-state held in common trust for "the benefit of mankind". Effectively, this means the UN-appointed governor is powerless and all social services are privatized.

All social services are privatized? That sounds like a nightmare, especially with no central law enforcement. The court system must be a absolute mess in Horizon.

At least Horizon's public transport and urban planning is good enough that most citizens don't need a personal vehicle, so it's not all bad!

Ouch. That's all I can say about this chapter.

Two hour warning but, uh, I think I'm safe to start outlining.
 
Btw for our next hero how does everyone fell for this combor for John?

We need a dedicated Operations hero right now since our weakest stat

Operator
-Memoria Potency 4
-Dragonsteeth 3 Potency
-Potency Reduction 3
=4

This should gives a Teleporter or Clairboyant. With Extra powers hopefully minions since i feel like Teleporter and Clairvoyance really works with contracts.

It should also hopefully boost Johns iperations while keeping him out of direct fights. Since his hit is basically a dump stat.
