I'm pretty sure that Ahri has the whole character focus of rising above what she was born as if I remember her backstory correctly.
Yep, she's got a couple short stories on the LoL Universe website that explore her character a bit.
Are they old enough to even remember those games? Canon is silent on the question of whether Earth Bet has TV Tropes.
Yea, 2011 LoL is still in coming onto the scene, it's only season two. Ahri was added in December of 2011 as well, so she's not even on the roster yet. Might be in development, not sure though.
Let's face it. even if LoL doesn't exist on Aleph, Uber and L33t will cause trouble when they see Taylor.
Cue the tinfoil hats on Aleph screaming about the fact that Ahri was actually a real person on Bet all along!
Does it really matter? Any Asians figuring that out will stop reading and become paniced at the combo of "Fox Spirit" and "Korean".
cue Ahri getting a Guardian Ahri skin after a liscensing deal with the PRT.
And Taylor getting offered a contract for cosplay/acting as a presentor for a LoL event.
It starts with the locker scene in January, I know that. What year it is, no idea. Either way, Ahri isn't a thing that exists yet, if League of Legends is even a thing.
Story is July 2010... I am adding a date note to the next chapter somewhere.
Financial sales are a secondary concern, but "scoring well with the high school/elementary girl crowd" is a primary goal. That's how they try to recruit future parahumans so that they will be part of the solution rather than part of the problem. The fate of humanity may rest on this. PR in Worm is hardcore.
I got that. I'm also sure that, in a world where Bad Canary has been majorly in the news lately and with Taylor showing new powers at the drop of a hat, they were also checking for possible Master effects from her singing. Results?
Inconclusive.
That's the problem with the Worm setting. Where do you draw the line between 'low level master' and 'really good singer'?
Or "low-level Master" and "middle-ranked social Thinker", or "low-level social Thinker who's good at pushing people's buttons even without powers" for that matter. The Protectorate's classification system isn't really suited for edge cases like Coil or (arguably) Tattletale, and the fact that anyone with an actual Master rating tends to make the public understandably nervous doesn't help.
The canon classification system is not at all good at what it's supposedly used for (in-the-field threat assesment), almost as if it was written by someone who had no actual experience as a PRT field agent or talked to one or soldiers or SWAT team members.
What's all this talk of "Again"? Don't you mean "Still"?People in English speaking countries are swearing at the English Language, too, you know.
Again.
Or The Travelers? They always struck me as a LoL team.
Oh god, that would be hilarious to see their reactions! Unfortunately, they've been on Bet for about a year by this point and, if Ahri wont be out yet at the current moment in time, she wouldnt have been out on Aleph either. Assuming LoL exists over there.
Could be worse. They could have run into Neeko.
Now we just need someone who can pull off Teemo.
So for those of us who do not play non-single-player games... care to explain, or do we just sit over here going 'Huh?'
