I think she acts as a regulator and well...administrator for the link? Optimizing the interface between him and his champion. So Taylor might have a lot easier time applying her power towards her goals...add to that her being a lot more creative than OG Juggernaut...well she is gonna be scary.
Ohh, nice foreshadowing there. And nice update as well. Really looking forward to even more now.
I think QA is going to be assisting as a semi-thinker power, letting Taylor/Juggy (she's gonna hate that nickname, but gonna be hard to get rid of it) process HOW she wants to approach any given situation so she can make the most of her unstoppability. All Taylor had to do is leverage which path gives her the greatest gains.
"Think of what the term juggernaut means, then crank it up to irresistible force levels."
or
"..., then crank it up to 111 on a scale of 10."
Can't wait to see her take on Levi or Bemmy. The winged bird might be a problem though, but if she can get in the first hit, and keep on going, Ziz literally won't be able to process HOW she got hit, much less get her bearings on what to do next.

Cyttorak is a frigging dork.
That's terrifying on a certain level. Like there is this godlike entity capable of granting powers straight up from myths and legends and he is a guy who just loves to see how his champions break stuff. There may be some ulterior motives but if you dig even a little you'll find out that they are at best secondary to his main goal of watching and orchestrating the best action movie of all times by Michael Bay's standards.

Yup.
It's actually kinda nice and refreshing, in a way, to see a power granting entity without any hidden agendas, double dealing, backstabbing, or monkey paws. Just a dude handing out power for the pure joy of watching someone unleash the Unga Bunga.
Kaiser not wanting to know her identity or wanting to recruit her seems too forced to me. Even if he didn't do anything with that information, it would be stupid of him not to have it. He is not some small-time villain who can afford not to know what is happening in his city.
Considering how paper thin Taylor's identity is, that's closer to "I'm going to say this thing that's basically meaningless as a way to improve my reputation" - as shown in the text, as soon as they start looking for someone who fits Juggernaut's body type they're inevitably going to start looking at Taylor, at which point the jig is up.

Taylor's identity is pretty much public, only thing keeping it from all the way public is the polite fiction of the Unwritten Rules.
Kaiser already knows her identity.
It took Kaiser less time than Othala to figure it out. Kaiser pays lip service to the Unwritten Rules when it suits his purposes. Likewise, he knows who her father is, and targeting his daughter would be violating agreements the Empire has with the Dockworkers. He couches it in the terms of a small favor, because the girl took care of an annoyance to the Empire, one Shadow Stalker, because that's what his minions and mooks understand.

Yeah, and Kaiser is smart enough to say - especially after dealing with Squealer and walking out of containment foam because she didn't want to be contained - that he doesn't want to break the rules, because she might be able to break HIM.
Hookwolf, on the other hand, will just see her as a challenge. Remember, his two brain cells have never actually met and talked to each other ...

personally, i wonder what happens if the two meet
Nice wordz! I like Miss Juggernaut!
It's kind of cool that Cytorrak likes destruction, but not to the point of destroying the multiverse. This is like a new version of the trope, "Godzilla Threshold". Where the threat is so big, calling in Cytorrak is a good solution.

"Nice power armor. Why is it purple?"
"Demon blood. Long story. Anything around here needing shot?"
"Well, there's always Nazis."
"Really? Dad and I took care of those back home. Lead the way."

Simmy: Mind control? I can! *struggles trying to telekinetically adjust her brain* I can't?
Taylor: You can't stop me from being me.

@Kryslin Simurgh isn't a telepath. She's a telekinetic who encodes instructions into your subconscious by physical manipulation of your brain chemicals and neuron activity. Her power won't work on a Juggernaut. Nothing can alter a Champion of Cyttorak's physical matter without Cyttorak giving up his Claim on that Champion. Cyttorak would never surrender control.

yeah, but Taylor doesn't know that. It's commonly believed by the inhabitants of Earth Bet that Ziz is telepathic.
That would mean that Taylor wouldn't hear the Scream either right?
It's even more polite than usual due to who her father is and the fact that anyone can tell that she's a high level brute.
You don't anger a high level brute if said brute has no weaknesses you can exploit.
Didn't know he had that many...
Whatever universe they happened to meet in would explode due to that much concentrated Taylor.

Taylor would hear the sound, but her mind would not be affected by it.
In some fanon it is not the sound of the Scream that affects people. The mind-altering effect may not be audible, the Simurgh being in Earth orbit means she is constantly altering/brainwashing people without them knowing it. The Scream used during Ziz attacks is just a form of mental/emotional terrorism.
Isn't the Scream a product of the Simurgh doing micro-TK on people's brains?
IIRC, she isn't making actual sound, as in vibrations in the air, she's directly inserting the "sound" into people's brains
wouldn't that apply to all parahuman based mental effects then, since they're just the shard sticking it's hand into your brain and poking things?
