♦Topic: Aria and Despedia hit Brockton Bay!
In: Boards ► Capes ► America ► Wards ► Brockton Bay
IndolentMinx (Original Poster) (Veteran Member) (The Minx in the Know)
Posted on February 26, 2011:
Today was the scheduled first patrol of Brockton Bay's newest Wards. Aria joined in January, but was kept out of the active patrols. The reason being that she is a Tinker in the same vein as Dragon.She's able to make Tinker tech that can be reproduced.
That alone made her valuable enough to keep off the streets. However, she had decided to build herself a suit of power armor to actually help. I heard she was just waiting for the go ahead.
Despedia is a recent trigger that joined the Wards. There are rumors that she was forced to join, but she appears happy to be there. Shortly after joining the PRT attached her to Aria's protection detail. She's apparently a grab bag cape with a Brute/Mover/Striker rating.
Today her armor cleared for duty and they went out with Aegis for their patrol.
(Pictures of the armor [here])
They ended up in a confrontation with the Merchants near the Docks and two new Merchant Capes.
This thread is for Aria and Despedia's debut patrol. Speculation on the new Merchant Capes is on a separate thread.

Yeah I was there. They came flying down and sent those Merchants packing. Stay out of the Docks!

Power armor? Hoverboards? What's with all the white? I don't understand any of this. She gets her fancy suit and now she'll slum with us mortals?

It was nice to actually see her for real. I was at her introduction and she was so sweet. My daughter even has a poster signed by her. Her friend Despedia is just as kind. So I can believe they would slum it with us mortals, crazyinbrockton. Shame on you.

The power armor was interesting. It wasn't like other suits that we had seen on other heroes. I wonder what kind of load it has? Whatever it did to those guys was kind of boring, but it worked. I just wonder what else it can do.

Don't those two seem really close? What's there relationship? They're both really pretty it would be a shame if they were into each other.

@hit_me: Sounds to me like you shouldn't have been out with your druggie friends.
@XxVoid CowboyxX: God made us as he did for a reason. I'm pretty sure he didn't make us to be judgmental.
I don't see what the issue is at all. They were just doing the right thing and that should be encouraged.

Okay kids this thread derailed badly. The summary is that three brave souls went out to do battle with the Merchants and capitured their newest capes. Thanks Aegis, Aria, and Despedia.
But seriously...where can I get a suit of that armor myself? It's very sleek.

♦Topic: What will she build next?

Posted on February 26, 2011:
This isn't really a speculation thread, but more a discussion of what has been unveiled already. Aria is easily one of the Wards people are most interested in at the moment. She's rarely seen outside of staged PR events, but already her presence is being felt.
The medical scanner that she released had little hype to build it up yet made up for it within days of release. A staggering 95% diagnostic rate is unheard of, but there you have it. It's currently being mass produced for hospitals across the country.
Just released at 7:00 p.m. Eastern was the news of yet another revolutionary development. The Sol Reactor is going on the market within the next six months as a cheaper and cleaner form of energy. No waste products. Initial release will be to hospitals and emergency services. Aria's words and Dragon is backing them up.
Scheduled for release within the next year is an upgraded form of the Sol Reactor for handling larger power needs.
The power armor she wore in her conflict with the Merchants earlier today was also built by her. So far we have seen flight, enhanced durability, and some kind of sonic weapon. Well I'm guessing sonics since those guys were acting like they were having inner ear problems.
Slow down girl before you burn yourself out, but I'm not complaining. Let's turn this over to the posters now.

That's some pretty heavy stuff. So her specialization is like medical and support stuff? That's pretty cool. Like a Tinker Panacea?

Very interesting. The part I'm most curious about is how much will all of this cost? I suppose if the generators run themselves they would essentially pay for themselves, but the start up cost must be a nightmare.

All I'm saying is that all this power armor talk is making me nervous. She can make Tinker Tech that can be manufactured. Reproduced. What if she gives this stuff to our enemies? Did anyone think of that?

@ crazyinbrockton: Can I get you something? Perhaps something to help with that pole that's lodged in your rear?
Quick mythology lesson because I'm so generous. It was the titan Prometheus that brought the gift of fire to use mortals. That's knowledge and science if you're curious. He was rewarded by being chained to a rock and having a great eagle eat out his liver for eternity. I suspect trying to eat this Prometheus' liver might be a bit harder.
Lesson over and class dismissed. See? Generous.

@ IndolentMinx: Very classy.
@ crazyinbrockton: Uncool bro.
Probably the reason we have so few heroes as opposed to villains is because people, as a group, are kind of dumb.
We've got this nice kid going out of her way to make stuff for us to use. Giving up weekends and time at home to try and make our lives a little less crappy.
Ignore the idiots, Aria. Keep doing the right thing.

Just watching you people is hilarious to me. Some are decent, some are fools, but the fact remains that this is just the beginning. She's starting small because she doesn't want to scare you.

♦ Private message from Jakuri is Watching:
Aria *New Message*: I am truly enjoying a look at your culture. It amuses me to see how similar yet different our peoples are. The battle I had with the one you call Tin-Mother was something else. I think I behaved myself well.
Tin-Mother *New Message*: You are a very interesting person, Dragon. Yes. I know who you are. I can be a beneficial ally or a terrible foe if crossed. Aria is an innocent girl and I will not have her used. She can't even do what you want. She sees you as a trustworthy mentor.
As for this conversation? The Saint isn't watching this. This has been my offer and a warning.
