With Valiant being a new member and many people thinking New Wave was done, it might be a good idea to do a trip through the local schools. Basic anti-bullying speech seguing into the Unwritten Rules being a bully tactic by villains, that Heroes should be open and honest, New Wave banner rah rah rah. Basically sell the idea that New Wave is still a qualified choice and probably a better one than the government heroes, who are just as secretive as the villains, only not saying that. Then we can have Valiant have dreams about any kids with a bad enough emotional profile, Taylor included, and have her do some good.
This sounds like a decent plan for me. Also it's important that if we grant powers to Danny as well (we consider it I guess?), it may be possible to make both Taylor and Danny end up in New Wave, so there is nothing left to really stop them from becoming official capes. And we plan to fix some things inside of group, so I think this may work. I prefer other options, but this may be considered I guess?
Also this may be a nice way to really screw Emma, Madison and Sophia by simply saying how they acted (and some potential gathered evidence). By simply revealing in public their bullying.
I just want to make sure whatever group we send her to is sufficiently outside school, which she'll be wary of. There probably are community Chess Clubs, but that name just always makes me think of a school club, which would probably be the wrong way to go.
Yeah, pretty much we want to make sure that group has nothing in common with Winslow for obvious reasons.
Also Chess Club... well, it's pretty much a random example. It may be something completely different. Roleplaying or something else? Anyway idea is pretty obvious here.
I don't hate the idea of destroying Winslow but it's by far the least subtle option available.
It should also work unless all of them end up in Arcadia, which I really doubt as Emma in story wasn't considered nowhere near smart enough to be part of it. Sophia as well, although in this case even if she would end up in Arcadia, they wouldn't let her bully people around unlike in Winslow. No idea on Madison, but if 2 of those 3 are out as Taylors problem, then situation would be far more managable. Possibly they would end up in Clarendon? Or whatever schools there are in Brockton Bay, as I personally don't buy that there are only 4-5 schools in a city with 350,000 citizens. In my Koszalin (100.00 Poland) there is 6 high schools and it's far smaller city. So I suspect in Brockton Bay there are some schools which simply aren't mentioned in canon.
Speaking of Bakuda, should we try to get her shard to tone down the conflict, she cause a lot of destruction without generating data (she killed capes right?) but her bombs are super useful to keep her around for. Maybe have it giver her more nonlethal stuff.
Ah yeah, this is one of those things that would be nice to do. Her potential is really nice and it's a damn waste to make her commit 'suicide by going batshit insane' so yeah, fixing this problem may become neccesary.
I know what you're talking about. Burn Up too. Fun, but doesn't help us.
Hmmm... how it would look data wise... now when I think about it.
In HALPING!Quest Lung's shard is called Opposition and it's a Trump one. Possibly makes sense.
His official rating are Brute/Changer/Blaster.
Brute 80-180 (he's 4-9 escalating Brute)
Blaster 40-120 (I think he was around 2-6 Blaster)
Changer... I don't remember, but it may as well be also 80-180.
But I think it may be interesting to go with an alternative based on Dragon Slayer ala Fairy Tail.
[] Dragon Slayer
-[] Brute 60-160. This one has lower Brute rating and starts from a slightly lower position. This build would be based more on speed and better hitting melee and blaster power. Mechanic is similar, but host stays mostly humanoid. And gets stronger with time, but in this case it may be based more on his or her willpower and determination instead of something like anger or conflict.
-[] Trump 140. This data is what allows to change mechanics of summoned powers. Like different elemental breath attacks (so fire breath suddenly may become lightning one, etc.). Or simply provide special abilities which standard dragon slayer form(s) don't provide.
-[] Changer 80. I think it doesn't really need more. Changes will show up like scales, claws, etc. but I think in the end host is supposed to stay humanoid more or less, but may grow up things like wings as well for example.
-[] Mover 140. Speed, lots of speed. While Lung is more about sheer power and tankiness, this would be more overwhelm with speed and power.
