Project Prometheus (Original Setting Superhero Quest)

Reader mode
Actually if I recall her Mittens clones were more panther-ish. Is that just a matter of the size, or could she turn them into lions or cheetahs or whatever?
 
Point conceded.

Anyway, I don't think Gwen would have done anything too drastic to Hiver. I mentioned a bomb in the gut, but I doubt our QM would have given us a situation that we couldn't handle. It might be just raw emotional manipulation and financial abuse, owning their living space and using the "I saved you" card to put him in line.

"Because what if there were a way to give someone fully developed metahuman powers? What if they could be bestowed to those who already wished to be heroes?"

Wolong is very, very still. "If that were the case, then that would change everything."

You smile. "Indeed. Gabriel, let me tell you about an initiative called Project Prometheus. . ."

I love how this conversation goes. It starts with the small and practical things that can be done to ease into working together, hits a midpoint of unbelievability with the casual drop that Black Swan is more powerful than the rest of the building multiplied together, and continues heedlessly into fantasyland with Mendicant as a roomie and oh yeah the entire world of metahumans is going to be entirely revolutionized.

No wonder Wolong started losing his cool at this point.

Wolong is obviously an intelligent, articulate, and dashingly handsome man, to have come up with such an insightful and poetic observation of the state of his organization. Humble, too! :p

A little surprising to see him immediately pivot to phasing-out New Dawn entirely and integrating what he can with Justice Unlimited. But I do know the feeling of an organization having lost most of its heart, and you either want out, or a way for it to have a dignified conclusion. This way seems like having the cake and eating it too.
 
Yeh honestly Id want BS to work with ND remaining memebers to hopefully leverage her rep and convince them to stay when the merge happens.

As long its not unreasonable id be willing to offer some incentives like leading their own team. Like how ND had Denial which was a great team.

[X] Plan Sleight Of Hand
-Leizi will attend the meeting 'solo', with a Shield Generator.
-Handyman will take the job and blend in as a janitor.
-At some point early in the meeting, when the 3 Seasons are outside, Maddie will have a small Nevermore clone drop a piece of paper to Hiver, instructing him to take a bathroom break at some point during the meeting.
-Handyman will be inside the bathroom and debrief him on the plan. Handyman will be wearing actual janitor clothing, and give them to Hiver to change into. Hiver should explain at this point how they have leverage over him.
-Handyman will turn into Hiver, come back to the meeting, and standby as Leizi analyzes what the married couple does.
-Hiver will leave in janitor clothing, and rendezvous with Maddie and Mona, who will be observing the proceedings from a distance with binoculars and the comms.

Feel free to elaborate or edit this plan, this is just to get something going for now.

This was it.
 
Hey QM if we do Cenotaph and JU wants you actions at same turn do we get bonus to the espionage roll?

I feel like narratively it works really well in using the Memorial as cover to recruit candidates en mass.

Possible 8-9 Tolerance candidate, maybe? That's just my speculation, tho.

Hmm something for Turn 4 yeh since we dont have any ambrosia then and new actions from apiary like getting the Contingency might be more important.

BTW I feel like doing Meet the rookies before cenotaph is better. Cenotaph probably needs us to do a Rep Check to see how many Candidates we can get. So Meet the Rookies possible Rep boost and Mona Reaching R9 or if were lucky R10 should hopefully get us 4 candidates of medium tolerance.

Bitterman said:
Eh, boring! There are three high tolerance candidates in the wild right now. An 8, a 9, and a 10 but one that isn't as drawback free as Mona was.

Yara definately needs us to deal with her family and maybe her realizing how much in danger she if from her own dad.

Noelle I can see wanting her Mothers Powers so need to take care of Monarch before being able to recruit her.

The last one probably involves teh Magical Girls using JU name and compromised Leizi network.

no wait my bad we only have 1 chance for wolong to seatch synergies for John since alliance only starts next turn.

It really depends on whether looking for synergies are based on keywords or dna samples. At the very Least chatroom if an amazing fit for John so id like a synergy that can use her,

Wolong will tell you two keywords that synergize based on the kind of power you want. You'll have to figure out the rest of it.

hmm so for example if we say we want Autnomous Creature creation hed give us 2 keywords but not how many more keywords and other keyword we need.

But does something of a rough description like A synergy that uses Clairvoyance works?

Or would it be something Like descrining a power of being able to transform into an Element?

Sure. Or "something support focused" or the like.

Would flat out saying an Operation boosting power works?

Hmm for Power Description Id probably go. Telepathic Commucniation and Sense sharing between members for supernatural coordination.

Though if we ask for synergies with ally empowerment would we get 2 keywords that can synergize with or 1 keyword since ally empowerment is a keyword too?
