... Hmm. @Shadlith, what are Cauldron, the Clock Tower and Church up to?

Cauldron might not have even formed, since originally it was caused by Eden's death and put together to oppose Scion, but with the TSAB, Clock Tower and Church all doing their big-organization thing it would make sense for a group of parahumans to put together a Cauldron analogue for their own interests. Also, there's no reason this "Cauldron" couldn't have found the Thinker's remains after the Beast was done with it and did the whole selling-powers thing. Especially if the PtV shard was lost near the end and attached to some young girl.

... Also, the thought amuses me greatly that all these high-tier agencies are working around each-other trying to get Earth back on it's feet.

As for the Church and Clock Tower... wasn't a big part of their entire existence the act of keeping Magecraft secret? Now that that particular secret is... not, what are they even doing? I can't see them disbanding just because their original reason to exist is gone. The people in charge like being in charge too much.

The TSAB can bring a truly horrific amount of power to bear, but they need to spread that power out across all their Member worlds and outposts, so they probably have about parity in terms of local power and capability as the other three.

"Cauldron" would be kind of weird, because of the four Supernatural Powers they're the only ones who have little to no standardization. There's no Magecraft to learn or Devices with pre-loaded spells, just whatever each parahuman can bring to bear. Tinkers could help with that, but they can almost never mass-produce their stuff.

... And of course the Incubators of PMMM are just completely decentralized and have no need of any kind of local agency.

Edit- Also, this:

Honestly I wanted to go with Strike Arts or Sword fighting, because why go pure-canon Nanoha? It would be interesting.

But then I thought about the potential Breaker ability that would be created for that style... and couldn't think of anything cooler than the giant beam of doom.


Edited the vote. After seeing Nanoha's father in action, swords were the only option. :p

You have no idea, as Nanoha has no reason to know any of this. If you were Shirou, you'd know about the Church and the Association (Kiritsugu was a lot more helpful in this continuity: still a crappy teacher though). If you were Madoka, you'd know... actually, not much new, since as you mentioned, the Incubators aren't really too affected by all this (well, except for difficulty harvesting witches: Their picks tend to grief out way too quickly). If you were Taylor, you'd... learn absolutely nothing, because the Parahumans didn't start showing up until after the apocalypse.

As for the TSAB: Yeah, they've only got a minimal presence, and that's mainly due to them feeling guilty as hell over Scion and Eden. Earth isn't an Administrated World, after all. But since they attacked first, they think of it as being their fault Earth's in such bad condition. Which means you've got the equivalent of disaster relief forces hovering over the planet. The problem is that Scion kinda picked a fight with about half their fleet and pretty much shredded a good portion of the smaller ships before going down, so they're actually using most of their forces dealing with their own issues. Plus considering how often Lost Logia shenanigans and idiots trying to get to Al-Hazard show up... yeah, they're pretty busy dealing with pretty much everywhere else.


Have you SEEN what Nanoha's family can do with swords?

*Coughs in embarrassment.* I uh, haven't. ^.^" Mind PMing me a link? All I know is that her dad was some kind of bodyguard ninja dude who nearly got killed in the line of duty and is incredibly badass.
 
Shadlith arent the incubators observing all the factions, for science? After all they are demostrating several types of magic, and they would have a bit interest on it

Nanoha doesn't know the details, but she knows that generally, they seem to chat with almost everyone without any overt issues. They are pretty much public knowledge by this point, along with all the other magic groups, which I feel important to mention, so there's a bit of public information. As mentioned earlier, the TSAB loathes them. As for the entities, they know enough about them to know they're just using dimensional fuckery to fake breaking the rules, and are willing to explain that (Which means that Parahumans are fully aware of what Shards are). The only ones they might have a good relationship with are the Maguses, who share their lack of morals and interest in magic. On the other hand, any maguses they have a good relationship with, they probably have a very good relationship with. Like, Bro tier.

Edit: clarified.

Fascinating, i am very pumped now :D
 
well so they are basically like the Nanaya clan from nasuverse, because they were doing flashstep and crazy fast slashs, okay i can dig a nanoha like that
 
... changing my vote to "sword", because of course that's what Nanoha will be learning from her family. Future Breaker abilities be damned.

Because... wow. O.O
 
[X] Swords fighting. Your father's started giving lessons, helping those who want to join the hunter corps. Someone needs to clear out the monsters from the wilderness. Nanoha uses Modern Belkan style.
[X] You and Yuuno immediately made your way there, stepping in as quickly as you could. You revealed your identity without a thought, calling upon Raising Heart to help you. (You already have some basic combat experience, but your ID has been revealed.)

Also in Nanoha Innocent, Nanoha demonstrates her family skills by coring out a cup with a spoon. Fate immediately swooned.

I have to correct this now or its gonna bug me forever: The plural of "magus" is "magi", not "maguses".

Yeah, lets see Nanoha using the Mikami-Fuwa Style of Swordsmanship, which involves using dual swords, throwing knives, and garrotting people with wires. Yep, total Ninjas.
There is a Japanese Meme of "The Takamachis, a Family of Warriors", after all. Even Momoko, the token civilian, could probably fight in Social Arenas due to her rep and skill as a pâtissière, not that it means much in this setting though.
Holy- right, so they're goddamn naruto-esque ninja. Except actually willing to kill. Got it.

Actually, they aren't much against super-human levels of combat, as they are just Humans in the end, but against Mundane Spec Ops? Throw a hundred of them, and a fully trained Mikami Swordsman would mow them down, one way or another.
So, while useless against Witches and the sort, Street Level Parahumans and relatively untrained Puella Magi are going to see hell facing off a trained Mikami. Like Kyouya, or Miyuki, and if he hasn't lost his edge, Shirou.

well so they are basically like the Nanaya clan from nasuverse, because they were doing flashstep and crazy fast slashs, okay i can dig a nanoha like that

Well, Nanoha won't be pulling that sort of thing with just her body yet, since the flashsteps are part of the Secret Techniques of the Mikami-Fuwa... but Nanoha would still be pulling off stuff like doing blunt attacks you expect with a Mace using a sharp sword, I bet.
Now add to that, Magic...

Well, of course, when you add a magic-capable Twin Swords Style user...
