How did Promise discover that that was true? Just experimentation?

[Alicorn]

She guessed it beforehand in conversation with Bonesaw, and confirmed it as soon as she started tinkering.

"If they were thinking, if they wanted to keep me, they would give me a slightly smaller parts budget and hire me a liaison specifically selected to be my best friend and make sure I never had to spend another two minutes in a room with somebody whose main skill is getting promoted through the PRT ranks and that I never had to have a conversation with Boots that wasn't about tactics."

To what extent are Wards and Protectorate heroes allowed to spend their budget on staff? Is this something you could just do?

[pedromvilar]

I'd expect there's a vetoing process for an unpowered to work with capes and go about HQ and the Protectorate might not allow Wards to get the power to do that.

I think Glam should investigate the possibility of working with Uber and Leet. They're pros at getting disproportionately high publicity per lethality. And if Glam doesn't want to join in their minor villainy, they'd probably also appreciate a hero who was willing to fight in-theme.

[pedromvilar]

I don't remember if we actually mentioned it, but it's currently 2004, Uber and Leet probably do not exist yet.

[Bluelantern]

But apparently, Trainwreck does, which I don't know what to think of considering he was a small time tinker.

[pedromvilar]

Many capes don't have canonical ages attached to them, we're trying to keep it more-or-less reasonable. For example, Panacea and Glory Girl are just children, Triumph hasn't even gotten his powers yet, Miss Militia is 24 and Armsmaster is 21, Richter is still alive, Sphere is not yet Mannequin, etc

[Ezra]

Ah, okay. So instead Glam would have to have the idea to become Uber and Leet. Oh well.

[Bluelantern]

You're not going out in costume until you've been cleared by me, do you realize that?"

So this person was already making my fist clench, now I feel like telling that to go @#%* !@$$%& Crawler #$(%}} #%&(*) %¨º@ sideways.

Really, I didn't expect this reaction. o.o
