Next turn. All out member need to had a stats training round.

So my current crack theory is Scarlet Maturity is Princess' dad
Except half the reason for that is I'm assuming Crusade wanted her as leverage against one or more of her parents and Scarlet Maturity. . .doesnt seem like he would care, even puting aside the mechanical difficulties of him reproducing. Although he might have been smaller 10 years ago.

Other theories: one of her parents is someone from Elysium. They want her for her phenomanal cosmic power of ______.

Additionally, because of your extensive spy-network, you may once per turn mission reduce the difficulty of any ESPIONAGE check for yourself or others by 3.

Is this supposed to be once per Mission or once per Issue?

[Kermie]

. . . aren't going to play ball. Monarch's presented you with a false binary: either you let her do as she pleases and attend the memorial like an honored guest, or you attack her and feed her public relations machine. Either outcome will suit her just fine.

Click to shrink...

Yup. Time to talk.

However . . . the difference between a Marrow Spider and Acid Rain is more their willingness to limit collateral damage than any kind of inherent morality. Powers was filled with monsters, but polite monsters who could largely be ignored. Now that you think about it, there is depressingly little daylight between the "heroes" of Powers and Monarch's forces.

Click to shrink...

"Roger, I'll be ready on barriers."

"My pretties will be prepared. Shelob thirsts for her first blood."

"Confirmed. This is Justice Unlimited's op."

"Uhh, I have more spiders with Coach J's head on them ready . . . I hate them so much.

Click to shrink...

Everyone seems to be ready. Very cool dialogue sequence here, Bitterman!

For how many years did the people of the Foot give themselves over to Justiciar and her 'Edits'?"

Click to shrink...

You mean Edicts?

"They need us," she sneers, "Were you there for the chaos after the Movement? Did you witness how close the NID came to utter annihilation? We saved them from that."

You can't hide the disbelief in your tone. "You believe they need you. . . because you saved them from the Wonderland prisoners you let out?"

Click to shrink...

Oh. That's definitely some questionable logic there, Monarch.

"Whether they need you or not, they haven't consented to your 'governance'," you shoot back, "There is an easy way to resolve this. Set up a plebiscite. Let the residents of the NID vote. If they elect to have you remain, then who could ever challenge your rule? Justice Unlimited would be happy to oversee the process."

You can feel Lady Leizi wincing somewhere in the distance. It would be difficult and costly . . . but it is something you could theoretically do.

Click to shrink...

And it's not happening.

As we said, we have responsibilities. We are finished running for crimes whose punishments have long been meeted."

You see her eyes flicker back to the hooded figure. She's been very careful to not let it away from her side. She sees you looking and then stares you down.

Click to shrink...

…Key?

All of her lieutenants turn to Monarch, watching her intently. You can see the calculation on her face. While Monarch would like to be seen as legitimate, she cannot afford to be seen as weak. You just spat in her face and challenged her directly.

There can only be one response.

"You shall find that we step where we please, girl. We will not invite violence upon this occasion, but neither will we meekly accept offense either!"

With a wave of her hand, a spot on the side of the drill changes. You have just a second to see the ceiling of a dingy room before a metal ball the side of your head rockets forwards at terminal velocity. It punches through Doctor Silver's barriers and shatters them like glass.

Click to shrink...

The ceiling of a dingy room? Apiary (the building) reacting?

Available Shields: 2 (Module Rock, Advanced Energy Shielding).

Valiant Gold loses 1 shield! Valiant Gold has 1 shield remaining!

Click to shrink...

So two shields. Oh boy.

Spiders with a human face pop into existence and begin leading the remaining civilians to safety.; your attempt at talking Monarch down gave Dreamcatcher enough time to get in position

Click to shrink...

Nice, nice. Think Bitterman told us about this ahead of time.

The spines fail to pierce more than an inch or two into Heracles' skin, but it gives Handyman the leverage to put Heracles in a submission hold. Behind him, Acid Rain takes aim with a hose connected to a tank of some foul substance, but Doctor Silver blocks the nozzle with a barrier. Acid Rain seamlessly switches to a sidearm and fires, but Handyman has enough time to dodge out of the way. The acid washes off Heracles like bathwater and melts the ground where it touches.

Click to shrink...

Of fucking course Acid Rain also has a gun.

Warpstar tears through the clones of Barkavious and Mitten while sobbing.

"WaAaAaAaAaAaH! i HaTe KiLlInG aNiMaLs! ThErE's NoThInG fUn AbOuT iT! iT's SaD! WaAaAaAaH!"

Click to shrink...

But you're a second too slow. He sees you, and his head disappears before it's hit. It reappears on your shoulder, sprouting like a mushroom.

"Oh, ThAnKs, I rEaLlY aPpReCiAtE iT. i HaTe HuRtInG aNiMaLs."

His arms sprout from your shoulder blades and reach back to grab your head in a reverse camel clutch. You feel your shield flare to life as he tries to break your neck.

Click to shrink...

"I wAs OnCe KiLlInG tHiS cHiCk AnD, aLl Of ThE sUdDeN, hEr DoG lEaPt OuT aT mE! i WaS lIkE 'WoAh' aNd I aCcIdEnTaLlY hIt ThE pOoR tHiNg WaY tOo HaRd AnD iT dIeD! iT wAs So SaD! i CrIeD fOr LiKe TwEnTy MiNuTeS. eVeR sInCe ThEn, I'Ve BeEn TrAuMaTiZeD oR sOmEtHiNg."

You can feel your spine breaking. But you keep calm and focus on your HUD. Tag his right arm. His left arm. His left leg. His right leg. His head. . .

"So AnYwAy, I aPpReCiAtE yOu BlAsTiNg Me LiKe An IdIoT sO i CaN jUsT kIlL yOu InStEaD. tHeRe's NoThInG sAd AbOuT kIlLiNg PeOpLe! ThEy'rE lIkE aNiMaLs WhO sUcK—WoAh!"

Click to shrink...

Warpstar, you weird. In a good way though!

I'm PiSsEd At HoW aWeSoMe ThIs Is!"

Click to shrink...

Case in point.

He catches Echidna by the throat, ignores her snake-tail as its bite draws blood from his arm, and squeezes her throat until she dissolves into a black mist and the red light around her fades.

Click to shrink...

Aw man, now we gotta spend an injury level to make another one.

Menagerie Witch shrieks in rage over the comms. "Pestilence and sick! For that, I'll tear off your di—"

"Focus," you bark.

Click to shrink...

lmao.

Acid Rain moves to spray them again, but Stockpile does something and cuts the space between him and the Algernon-type.

Click to shrink...

He's not beating the Vergil allegations!!!

VG, I'm tapped on barriers," Doctor Silver says panting, "And that thing underground will be here any second! It's massive!"

"Link up with Menagerie Witch. Get the Hustle on some of her clones, as fast as you can," you order. You spy Monarch calmly striding through all the chaos, standard-bearer close behind her, walking as if she were on a Sunday stroll.

"What are you going to do?"

"Buy time," you say as you switch to Scissors and dash in front of Monarch.

Activate Module: Scissors.

Click to shrink...

Nice.

The hooded figure shifts behind Monarch and says nothing. You realize said figure is short—maybe four feet tall with odd humps on their back.

"Yes?" Monarch asks imperiously, "You are in our way."

You glance around. "Strange actions for someone who vowed to 'not throw the first punch'."

Click to shrink...

…is that Key? I'm doubting that now.

Psychic Interference Detected. Counteracting.

"We just managed to get every civilian out of harm's way," you say through gritted teeth, "If this fight spills over to the Apiary, hundreds could die."

"And how many people are going to keep suffering if we don't stop them here?" he shoots back, "You tried diplomacy and it failed. We end this now and we can save the NID!"

Click to shrink...

They have had a total of three (3) interactions with each other and they hate each other. Yay.

Stockpile teleports several yards forward, charging Monarch. But you're not far behind, the red glow from Module Scissors clashing against his blue shine. You shoulder check his back and catch the swing of his glowing arm with a blade of psychic energy that extends from your wrist and engulfs your hand. He leans forward to overpower you, and you grab his free arm with your open hand to keep him from pulling away.

Click to shrink...

He's still not beating the Vergil allegations. Oh, and red girl versus blue guy!

"You heard the lady!" she shouts at Monarch, "No admittance for bad guys! No ifs, no buts, no coconuts!"

Never have you felt so relieved to hear such nonsense in your life.

Click to shrink...

If I applied the Brand New Sentence Counter to characters in this story, Mona would almost certainly be in the lead.

Stockpile leaps back from you and glares at you with hatred. In that instant, you know the two of you will always be at odds. The world could burn and he would be fighting you in the ashes.

Click to shrink...

Red versus Blue! Entwined by destiny or some shit!!!

—the hooded figure drops the banner and eagerly tugs on Monarch's cape.

"Look! Look! It's Black Swan!" a young, female voice says, "It's really her! Look, Mom—!"

The world grinds to a halt. The figure—Monarch's . . . daughter?—freezes in place as she realizes her mistake.

"Umm, uhh, I mean . . . I . . . I m-mean . . ."

Click to shrink...

What. The. Fuck.

Black swan drops down next to you, mouth agape. You two speak at the same time.

"You brought your . . . daughter?"

"Your daughter is my fan?!"

Click to shrink...

Yeah, those are some reasonable react… wait a minute, Mona! Priorities!

She does it anyway.

Faster than the eye can see, she zips across the trench and stops in front of Monarch and the hooded figure. The wind from her sudden deceleration knocks the hood back, revealing a severely dysmorphic metahuman girl, maybe ten or eleven.

Spoiler: Stat Check

DC 15.

Stat Check: REPUTATION 10. Valiant Gold and Black Swan have REPUTATION 16.

You rolled: 17.

17 + 3 + 3 (She's a Mega-Fan) = 23. Critical Success!

Who is staring at Black Swan with a look of undisguised awe.

Click to shrink...

…oof.

he girl raises her hands eagerly. "C-can I see the Apiary? Can I? Apiary was always my favorite!"

Black Swan clutches her heart. "Not me?!"

"No, no!" the girl says quickly, waving her hands, "I only heard about Apiary! You're my new favorite! You beat Scarlet Maturity!"

Click to shrink...

I imagine that Apiary was her favorite because of the "fellow dysmorphic" thing.

"Language!" Black Swan chides and then fires a massive blast into the sky out of the arm to which Warpstar is attached. When the light fades, her arm is gone and Warpstar's body is back in one piece.

Until he teleports to her other arm.

"DiD yOu JuSt BlOw OfF yOuR aRm To GeT rIdE oF mE? tHaT'S hArDcOrE."

"It'll grow back!" she shouts, and then she turns to the girl with a sad smile.

"I'm sorry . . . but with everything sooo . . ." She gestures to Warpstar sticking out of her, "I don't think you can see Apiary today."

"Oh." The girl looks crestfallen.

"Buuuuut, if you and your mom wait right here, I'll go get a pen and I can give you my autograph! And I'll grab us some funnel cakes! How's that sound?"

"Is funnel cake . . . yummy?"

"The yummiest!"

"HeLl YeAh, I cOuLd MuRdEr SoMe FuNnEl CaKe RiGhT nOw."

Click to shrink...

Best character interactions that I've seen in a while. Also, Warpstar really does like murder a bunch, doesn't he?

"Umm, I'm sorry," she says looking down, "Don't worry about me. I don't need funnel cake. I wasn't even supposed to be here. Mom didn't know I was hiding in her throne room until she opened the portal."

She twiddles her fingers.

"I knew it would be too late to send me away then. I just . . . I just really wanted to come." She looks at the white dome in the distance. ". . . I just wanted to see what it looked like."

Black Swan softens her stance and sighs. "Maaaan, this is a mood-killer. I don't feel like fighting anymore."

She turns to Monarch.

"Just go? You didn't mean to put your daughter in danger, we don't want to hurt her, let's just call the whole thing off? I'll kick your butt later."

Click to shrink...

Yeah, Princess being here kinda… ruins the whole "metahuman fight" mood.

"My liege," Heracles says, speaking for the first time. His words trail off, but his protest is clear.

You can see Monarch internally wrestling with her conflicting desires, though her face is neutral. But everyone knows what will win out in the end and the tension has disappeared.

Click to shrink...

…she's got the Mom Instinct. Now I kinda feel like it's a shame that I made Solferina a DNA sample, just because it would have been interesting to see them interact.

Forgot to quote this next part, but WHITE HAWK! WHEN WE CATCH YOUUUUU—

It is said that no two heroes are exactly alike, but one trait is common to all of them: when someone cries for help, they move without thinking. As if their body has a mind of its own.

That day, Valiant Gold was in the sky before she knew what she was doing. The armor on her right arm had changed, growing larger, thicker, and with the top of a great spike sticking out of it.

No matter how her armor let her challenge gravity, a person jumping could never catch someone flying. Unless another hero, also acting on instinct, created a blue barrier in the sky for her to land on and push off of.

As Valiant Gold drew back and prepared the strike, words she heard earlier in the day echoed in her ears:

I will be the justice lacking from the universe.

Ah, she thought in a timeless moment, That's why I'm here.

Click to shrink...

Hell. Yes. Also is that DS's Dad Instinct I see kicking in?

You don't take time to think about what you're doing. About the repercussions of striking a publicly-acknowledged hero to save the daughter of the most hated person in Horizon. About how you're only mostly certain this won't kill White Hawk. About how you're going to land.

You just think about the timing of your jump and the movement of your arm.

Click to shrink...

Nice. Kick his ass, Ellie!

White Hawk and the rest of the former Horae Guard members came for this girl, that much is certain. How they knew Monarch would crash the memorial or that Princess would be with her—especially since Monarch didn't seem to know that—is beyond you. But they purposely stayed out of the fight until they could swoop in and snatch her; only Black Swan and yourself prevented them from getting away scot-free.

Click to shrink...

What's so special about her?

But who is this girl? You turn and look at her and something that's been bugging you clicks into place. She's at least ten, probably older. Monarch was only in Wonderland for approximately eight years. She's too old to be Monarch's biological child.

You think people would know if New Dawn had shoved a two-year old in Wonderland. Which means Princess was probably born there . . . Wonderland was segregated by gender, so was her biological mother pregnant when she was imprisoned? How did no one notice?

You and Uncle Gabriel are going to have a very unpleasant chat if you survive this.

Click to shrink...

Hm. "Very unpleasant" indeed.

But something else makes sense now. Why doesn't Monarch just run away? She can't if she has a daughter who looks this distinct. Everyone will know Princess and Princess, no matter where Monarch goes. And if people like the Horae Guard are after her . . .

No place would be safe for her. Unless Monarch made one.

Monarch needed legitimacy and power so her daughter could have a safe place to live. You don't have time to totally process how you feel about that. Honestly? If Monarch's plan didn't involve releasing violent murders upon the world and taking a borough hostage, your sympathies would be with her.

Click to shrink...

It's murderers. Also, I get why she's doing it now.

The four in front of you are ready for battle. Black Swan readies herself to fly. The rest of Crusade, Justice Unlimited, and New Dawn are nearly here. Monarch is seconds away. Your finger hovers over the trigger of a module that you're not entirely certain what it does.

Module: Dynamite. Nora's notes had just said, "Dang, I really cooked with this one!"

Click to shrink...

Nora! Really?!

Just as you're about to activate it, a voice splits the air.

"Fighting a memorial? Even I find this tasteless."

Scarlet Maturity rumbles into view, looking visibly annoyed. He is now wearing a baseball cap with Menagerie Witch's logo and has a championship belt slung over his shoulder that reads "#1 Strongman Contest Winner!". One hand has a bag filled to the brim with stuffed animals, the other he uses to munch on funnel cake.

You . . . guess he's been enjoying the carnival games and food stalls, you think a tad hysterically.

"Begone, worms," he growls, "Black Swan, as the most powerful here, why have you not just vaporized your lessers?"

"Uhhh, there's a child present?" she offers.

Scarlet Maturity growls again. "Fair."

Click to shrink...

I can't believe fucking Scarlet Maturity is about to bail us out.

"Enough, boy. I know your Horae Guard well. I'll tell you what I told them when they tried to recruit me so many years ago: those who try to reach the peak of the mountain without climbing it are little more than stains in the dirt. Now, begone. If you are still here by the time I finish this funnel cake, I will take offense. No matter if I am 'on suspension'."

Click to shrink...

…

Can Elysium boost superpowers???

As he begins to fly away, Stockpile grabs your arm.

"What is that armor?" he demands, "Did she make it? Are you insane?! Do you know what powers it?"

"Yes," you reply, shoving him off, "What powers your armor?"

You see his posture grow rigid. "This isn't over."

"Yes," you disagree. You see the doll withdrawing toward the drill and Monarch teleport away, "It is."

Without another word, you turn and walk away.

Click to shrink...

They hate hate each other. Goddamn.

You are Lady Leizi.

". . . didn't know, Ellie. I was not privy to the inner workings of Wonderland, even as a council member. You can ask Lady Leizi; the opaqueness surrounding Wonderland was one of the major reasons NuGen split from New Dawn and became Justice Unlimited."

Gabriel holds his hands up in a placating gesture to the agitated Valiant Gold. Ellie stalks around the room, furious. You're in your office; it's been a few hours since Monarch withdrew.

Click to shrink...

We need to rename the old prison to Warcrimeland. Or something similar. I dunno.

"How? How did anyone let Wonderland operate like this for so long? Steelheart just did whatever he wanted with the place?!"

Gabriel sighs, a deep, defeated sound. "Yes. He was resistant to any interference and Yelena was more than happy to throw problems in Wonderland and forget about them. Many people were."

"Then how does a little girl end up in Wonderland?!"

"Yeah!" Mona echoes from the couch where she sits, "Princess was super sweet! And . . . she said the robot-man had been 'hurting her'. . ."

Click to shrink...

Steelheart, you're officially off the Algernon use list. We're using Acid Rain/Dollman and Gus instead. I'd tell you to die if you weren't already in hell.

---

Oh, and on another note…

It seems Monarch has a child, her group may actually care for her if the "princess" is anything to go by.

Click to shrink...

"May actually?" These guys 1000% care for Princess— she's the lynchpin typing them all together. Like, just look.

"Princess!" Marie Marionette shrieks.

"GiVe HeR bAcK!" Warpstar shouts at the same time, emerging from White Hawk's back. He rains blow after blow on White Hawk's head, but merely shrugs it off, grabs one of Warpstar's arms, and breaks it with a great crunch.

"FuCk!" Warpstar cries as his upper body appears back on his legs. Already, the broken bones are twisting and resetting, but White Hawk zips away.

Click to shrink...

(Referring to whether they should stop fighting because of Princess)
"My liege," Heracles says, speaking for the first time. His words trail off, but his protest is clear.

Also, Warpstar is now in Top 10 Characters for me.

[Crazyone47]

I'm not sure if Steelheart can be considered to be the villain here. Remember kids can miscontrue events. Judging from her dysmorphia it seems more like there are some medical issues she has.... I am guessing that there is something else going on ... I wonder if the potency boost is involved with the Princess

Also Stockholm syndrome is ... Sensationalized and not at all common but it does actually exist.... If existing under the umbrella of trauma bonding and post traumatic stress disorder that also means that it is considered irrational and therefore undiagnosable amd very much not something you can cite or even consider.

Also recommendation put MW and HM then put BS and Chat.

 

[Wing101r]

Honestly I think DS and VG as Majorly connected with Nora is great both of them can ise Rep Gain.

And DS has pm taken Ellie in as protege.

 

[ScorpioSting]

I had suspicions but it's good to have some level of confirmation that White Hawk is the power behind the throne.

 

[Parabola]

Princess might be one of the lynchpins in Monarch's leadership. "Steelheart kept hurting her" would get the political prisoners on her side, and while I can't be certain none of the legit villains would never hurt A child, clearly, if nothing else, Warpstar, Hercules, Marie and Acid like her enough to protect her.

Click to shrink...

Yeah, the ones present here, the ones most loyal to Monarch, definitely care for Princess.

Like, the absolute best-case scenario for why Princess was in Wonderland in the first place was that Steelheart found himself in possession of a baby that the Horae Guard wanted for Nefarious Reasons and he, in desperation, put the child in the one place where nobody at all could break in or out of, where the child would not be persecuted by the people at the literal top of the world.

...That probably isn't what happened, though I want it to be true. It's probably something awful along the lines of "a pregnant woman did in fact enter Wonderland and wasn't allowed out". Maybe something even worse than that.

So does that mean teh dc is technically 7 for the espionage check?

Click to shrink...

. . . you are Lady Leizi.

Click to shrink...

We have confirmation from Ronin that Crusade will likely try to interrupt Lady Leizhi's interview, though. Do we think we might have an Espionage check, on that?

 

[Wing101r]

Honestly one of the bog things is the Fact Silvio definately knows what his using to power his armor is something unethical or dangerous. Since he clammed up when VG asked about it.

So he really might be using Leviathan as PS with punishing JU as excuse though maybe his jsut using SM strat of killing people to power the armor.

Afterall if the power source is safe he would just say yes too. The only reason were not revaling The Stage is because we have no solid proof of its existsnce afterall.

 

[Abyssius]

Question:

If we become the greatest superhero teams, would Scarlet Maturity offer to join us at the top of the mountain?

Of course, LL would get an aneurysm, but the possibility is here?

Maybe something even worse than that.

I'll say outright that Princess was not the product of a sexual assault.

Also I just realize is Princess The Power booster?

We know apart from Prince some of the other Wonderlanders got power boost as well. It would explain the inmates likeng her, Steelheaet experimenting and even Horaia Guard wanting the girl.

Hell even The philosophers would probably want a power booster with Lantern probably being the one who spied on her to figure Princess will come here.

You know, scarlet maturity is really starting to give off Akuma vibes. I feel like black swan is going to keep running into him doing inexplicably mundane things.

Click to shrink...

It does make me wonder what his thoughts on Prometheus if ti goes public will be. One one hand were technically letting people climb the mountain when they didnt have the right for it, Plus tolerance boost is a form of Power Booster too. That said once they get their power its up to them to hone it if they want to reach the top.

BS needd to figure out Lightspeed dash in the fight with SM afterall. Though the fact BS needed no Tlerance boost would definately make him like her more.
