This is Lieutenant Tibuxon of the TSAB

Would try to decode more but at work.

EDIT: Found some time.

"Drec ec Meaidahyhd Depinuh uv dra DCYP,"
"This is Lieutenant Tiburon of the TSAB"
"Oui yna eh emmakym buccacceuh uv y DCYP jaccam. Etahdevo ouincamv yd uhla!"
"You are in illegal possession of a TSAB vessel. Identify yourself at once!"

[X] Talk back. Perfect Storm should be able to translate the aliens' language for you.

- [X] Mention you found the ship crashed. Don't mention Perfect Storm.
E.T. talking TIME!!!

Also, maybe doing this will allow us to get the mage support we need. Though seeing us may set off people, since we are based off a very destructive Witch...

Might be wise idea of not identify ourselves as Calamity Witch to them right now though. Should put that up to the vote if talking back.

This is one of those moments you know something bad can happen but not what will set it off. At least this way if we've pissed of the extra-dimensional police we'll know to be on the lookout.

:facepalm:

We are Taylor Hebert and we are thinking about trying to talk with what sounds like an authority figure. . . :eyebrow:

I can see nothing going wrong with this. :eyeroll:

"We really should have taco night more often."

"I don't know," he replies with a smile. "Let's wait and see how Sam's digestion handles it. If raccoons react to spicy food like dogs do…."

Samantha gave him the dainty sniff that comment deserved and settled herself at the table. "I am a lady. I do not get gas, and I certainly would not spread it around the house. That would be rude."

"You're the rudest and crudest of all of us," you remind her, earning a betrayed glare from her and a quick laugh from your dad.

Aaaaaaw. The family dynamic is so sweet.

You've been busy this week. Are the guys already out poking at the gangs?"

"Not as much as you'd think," he says after wiping his mouth. "A lot of the work so far is research. Finding out what territories the gangs have claimed, which capes are part of which groups, stuff like that. And finding out what kind of business they're involved with, too." He grimaces. "Taking the Merchants' money and handing over their drugs was easy work, honestly. A lot less dangerous than tangling with Lung or the Empire would have been. And I got the feeling that the Protectorate was more accommodating because we were focused on shutting down the drug trade. We might have had more trouble if we had gone around grabbing skinheads who could protest that they weren't doing anything, but busting dug dens? Pretty cut and dry."

So they're still getting ears to the ground... I applaud their thoroughness.
Silently Watches said:
"So you're sticking with that for now?"

"Yeah. Several gangs make a nice chunk of money off drugs here. The Winter Hill gang is the big name since they have an actual drug Tinker, but they also have a bunch of capes to call on. Not as many as the Empire could, but still enough to rival the Protectorate and Wards. The Warlocks are smaller dealers, but they're also more violent. MS-13 is the big name in cocaine, and Cadejo makes sure they keep that title." He shrugs. "And then there's the Fairyland gang, who should be the easiest to deal with."

1. So Winter Hill's still around. Given they used to give the IRA weapons, not surprised they've got the cape numbers. Probably international support. But are they just as bad with money as RL...
2. You wouldn't happen to mean the Warlocks Motorcycle 'club', right?
3. The Mara Salvatrucha are not to be fucked with. They've tangled with the Los Zetas, so they're both cruel and organized. Expect human trafficking and prostitution to be among their other sources of income, and above all, do not let anyone get captured by them.
4. Fairyland?
All in all, lots of RL gangs. I applaud your attention to detail.

You take a moment to remember that name. "Isn't that the Disney princess gang?"

"Yes," he agrees with a sigh, "it's the Disney princess gang."

Firstly, what. Secondly, The Fuck?
That's clearly an original job, so what's their story?

Silently Watches said:
The three of you stick with small talk for a while longer before your dad finally has to leave for work. Once you've cleaned the dishes, you head upstairs to your bedroom and peek in. "How's it going?"

Perfect Storm lets out a hollow sound not unlike a deep bell. «Analysis slower than expected. Passive scan inconclusive. Active scan unfeasible. Power requirements excessive.»

"That's not that unexpected," you tell it. "The thing was part of a spaceship. I'd be surprised if it didn't take a lot of power."

Of course, that it gobbles up so much power isn't a good thing right now. If Perfect Storm can't scan the computer core or whatever that tube you found is, it can't get any information off it. And if it can't get any information, looking for that thing was a waste of time.

Damn it.
Silently Watches said:
Picking up the blue jewel, you offer Perfect Storm the power at your disposal. It drinks deep from your mana, and then the dark purple casting marks reappear and cords zip out to the various couplings. "How long do you think it'll take?" you ask when the magic drain begins to itch and burn.

«Not… much….»

Blue-white sparks spit from the tube and do their best to form the same holographic screens your Device is so fond of. Noise soon follows, garbled and unintelligible.

«Mistress,» Perfect Storm says in something approaching alarm, «this is not a computer core.»

"DCYP Ahvunlan Lussyht."

You blink at the spray of sounds. Was that… speech? It sounds like it, kind of, but nothing you've ever heard before.

Actually, scratch that. You have heard this before. When Perfect Storm first landed, it spoke in some other language, presumably the language of its builders. And if this tube isn't a computer but is speaking to you… maybe it's something else that would be a necessity on a spaceship.

You found their radio!

"Drec ec Meaidahyhd Depinuh uv dra DCYP," the man on the other end of the line barks out when you still don't say anything. "Oui yna eh emmakym buccacceuh uv y DCYP jaccam. Etahdevo ouincamv yd uhla!"

Respectively: better than RL, yes, and I plan to write them as the worst of the ABB but run by Hookwolf

I was wondering when someone would ask. I had maybe a little too much fun coming up with Fairyland. :) Anyway, there are three capes leading them who named themselves Cinderella, Snow White, and Sleeping Beauty. Partly it was based around their powers, partly it was because like Mouse Protector, it would be humiliating to be beaten by a trio of capes who named themselves after Disney characters. After they carved out a nice niche, though, most Philadelphian capes if they hear you got your ass kicked will just give you sympathetic nods.

Most of the other details I want to keep quiet unless/until you fight them, but I will say that fighting one Fairyland cape is not too bad, two is hard but doable, but three? Good luck. Unfortunately, they know this, too.

My initial guesses for powers would be
Cinderella: Transform mundane objects into other things, with a 'by midnight' time limit.
Snow White: Command of animals.
Sleeping Beauty: I'm going to guess that it's based more on the general story than the specific princess: Creation and manipulation of spiky plants, Poison Ivy style.

Hm...
Snow White gets the minions, Cinderella makes them all armored and equipped, and Sleeping Beauty is battlefield control?
I'm starting to see how they got that reputation.

So...what do they do usually? Are they more along the lines of Uber & L33t's brand of Villainy, or do they operate like a hardass gang?

A lot of their money comes drugs, particularly heroin and meth. They have a foothold in the more club drug scene, but there they have to compete with Winter Hill. Also smash-and-grabs, mostly from Winter Hill's smuggling business or tech that originally came from Brockton Bay, ironically enough.

But no, they aren't cute and cuddly. They may not be as bad as MS-13, but they are still dangerous.

Do the have a Striker/Breaker/Mover, AKA Vanellope Von Schweetz? Hydrokinetic C53, The Little Mermaid? A Stranger in Mulan? Tiana the Changer? Rapunzel, the Pilokinetic?
 
@Always Late I find it ironic that you're always one of the quickest responders to updates in many threads lmao

More information is good. We are sorely lacking in information on the origins of Perfect Storm. This is good.

- [X] Mention you found the ship crashed. Don't mention Perfect Storm.
