Topic: A guy with a tail at a buffet?
In: Boards ► Brockton Bay ► Cape Doings ► Heroes

Posted on February 27, 2011:
Today me and some friends went to our favorite buffet to celebrate my buddy asking his crush out. While we were there, a guy sits down with three trays full of food. I thought it was weird, because he wasn't like the fatter guys you see go there and start testing how much food a buffet can really make. Then the guy started eating.
HOLY SHIT, could this guy eat! He was scarfing down piles of food a foot high in seconds! Then, while he was eating, something came out from under his shirt. I mean, you can already read the title, so I guess you've figured it out, but he had a tail. It was about three feet long, with spiky hair.
Anyways, when I figured out he was a parahuman, I took a picture. But I'm not going to put it on here, cause outing people ain't cool.
Then we were told by our waiter to leave. I hung out for a bit afterwards, and thats when I saw him. Assault! Full costume and grinning like a maniac, walking into the restuarant! So I think I saw Assault going into the restuarant to recruit a new parahuman!
So yeah, weird day, but I saw Assault and a new parahuman up close! Woot!

I'd say 'pics or it didn't happen', but you already said you wouldn't put any up, sooo how'd this guy look?

Superlame I'm pretty sure that would also be kinda messed up. But he was okay looking. Dark skin and kinda muscular. Not gonna give more of a description though.

So Assault came by, without Battery? I thought they were joined at the hip or something?

I have to commend you for your restraint. Lots of people who manage to get photos of new parahumans before they can get costumed tend to put them up as soon as possible. That said, maybe you should delete them? I don't like the idea of someone trying to track you down and use you to find out this new parahumans identity.

Oh shit, the parahuman I saw is Kong! That is so cool! Isn't that a bit fast for a new cape though? Recruited one day and beating up Empire and ABB the next?

SamwiseDamng Damn. I mean, I get why they sent him out so quick, but your right, that is really fast.

Looked cool as hell though. He might be a bit buffer than the last time I saw him, too. Though that might be because he lost his shirt.

For those who don't know, here is where people are now discussing Kong (Link). Also, ahole's name is pretty appropriate apparently.

Topic: Got my life saved today
In: Boards ► Brockton Bay ► Cape Doings ► Heroes
jamiesweet (Original Poster) (New Member)
Posted on February 28, 2011:
So I was shopping today, trying to get a cute outfit for a date, and then the Empire 88 and Azian Bad Boys started killing each other. I didn't know what was happening at first. I mean, I've heard gunshots on tv before, but in real life they were so much louder. The next thing I know, people are trying to kill each other. The second I knew there were Empire running around, I tried to get out. I'm black, I knew there was no way I was making it out without running.
But then a bald white guy tackled me. He had me by the throat. He was laughing, pressing a knife against me. I thought I was going to die.
That was when I heard a sound like a hurricane. Next thing I knew the Empire guy was flying like he'd gotten shot out of a cannon. He slammed into a windshield.
The guy who saved me was wearing an orange robe with blue dragons on it, and had a long tail. He was tall, had hair that was spiky and curly at the same time, and damn fine muscles, like an MMA fighter. He told me to run, and I booked it.
When I got to safety I took my phone out and called the police, but I probably wasn't the only one doing it. But while my phone was out, the guy returned with three redheads. I started filming just in time to get him using cars as barricades. He kept running out in a blur to take out gangsters and save people, and I put all the footage online.
Link
It was amazing. Eventually Assault and Battery showed up and started kicking ass too. Assault called the first guy 'Kong', so I guess he's a new cape.
I saw some videos other people put up Link, Link, Link. If you can't see those videos, just know that Kong ended up working with Glory Girl to take down Stormtiger! It was badass!
And he's so fast too! I've seen videos of Velocity fighting, and this was a lot like that.
I'm posting this from my house today. I don't know if Kong will ever see this, but if you do, thank you for saving my life.

Hooooleee. That guy must have won the lottery. Brute and mover powers, without a doubt. Did I miss an announcement? Isn't it weird for a new cape to just appear on the streets like that? Still, that was pretty badass to watch. Seeing Assault and Battery in the thick of it was pretty cool too

Replied on February 28, 2011:
He might be ABB? I mean he has the dragons on his vest, and Glory Girl does hit him. Maybe Assault and Battery just didn't want to take him on?

Cowboy Calm down man 8/
jamiesweet Thanks! I kinda wish I could have taken down Stormtiger myself, but Kong was pretty cool! I don't know if that's his real cape name though, apparently the PRT haven't decided on one yet.
► Bagrat (The Guy In The Know) (Veteran Member)
Replied on February 28, 2011:
So what are we thinking about what his powers? My contacts in the PRT are being kind of hush-hush about him, probably because they haven't officially adknowledged him, but I think I agree with derpritter about him being a brute/mover at the least.
The monkey tail is funny though. It looks like he hides it under his shirt for most of the fight, but you can see it appearing every once in a while when he isn't paying attention.
But yeah, super-strength, super speed, invulnerability? That is a damn effective power set.
► XxVoid_CowboyxX
Replied on February 28, 2011:
Are we sure he has super-strength? He might just be hitting them really fast, like a baseball getting thrown? Plus his invulnerability could be him dodging?
► Bagrat (The Guy In The Know) (Veteran Member)
Replied on February 28, 2011:
Cowboy Not likely. There's a point in jamie's video where you see him slow down to move the truck, and he also slows down to let people hit him with bullets. You can clearly see him tanking hits then, not using pure super-speed.
Weird note, but I keep getting deja vu while watching him fight. Even at a blur most of the time, there's something familiar about it.

Maybe he's not a new cape? A reformed villain possibly, or a parahuman from another country?

Did Brockton Bay need another parahuman though? I mean, they have how many capes over there? What about other cities man? I can think of maybe three that could use another powerhouse. Hell, forget nazis, send him after those Fallen assholes.
► Gryphony (False Mythological Creature)
Replied on February 28, 2011:
Are you kidding? Most of the capes in the Bay are supervillains! Hell, Lung has taken on an Endbringer in hand-to-hand combat. They need all the help they can get.
Besides, there's nothing saying Kong (Though apparently that name may not be official) can't be loaned out to other areas. Flechette ends up on new teams all the time.
► DatBass (Verified Awesome)
Replied on February 28, 2011:
Yeah, but she's a Ward. I don't know how old Kong is, but I haven't seen a lot of teenagers with that sort of muscle. He has to be in his twenties, not to get into serious identity speculation. So he'll probably Protectorate.
EDIT: be in the Protectorate I mean.

I agree. The idea that he took the time to try and inspire towards something else, brief as it was, was very sweet. But then, I also see what Cowboy is saying. The ABB did kill people after all.

First, happy March 1st everyone
Second, I think I agree with jamiesweet. While I don't think we should be giving the damn murderhobo a second chance, trying to rehabilitate normal people who might have been involved in odd circumstances seems like something the law is meant for.
There has been some bad news though. According to some reports, the gangs have begun to move. Stormtiger getting captured has caused one hell of a ruckus. For some reason the Merchants are making moves, the Empire 88 are mobilizing, and the ABB are being quieter than usual. It's almost like the calm before a storm.
I'm not blaming the heroes though. They saved lives, and took down a dangerous villain. But something is happening, and Stormtiger's arrest is a big reason why.

I've been allowed to give some news. The newest member of the Protectorate, who has yet to be given a cape name, responded to reports of gunfire while doing a practice patrol with Battery and Assault. As he could outrun them, he ran ahead, where, according to him, he saved you first jamiesweet. He defended an area until Assault and Battery arrived, then rushed to aid Glory Girl. After a brief altercation, the pair worked together to defeat Stormtiger.
Later reports showed that Stormtiger was supposed to be a distraction, and had plans to pull out once he had served his role. It is unknown why he had no other parahuman backup, but Stormtiger is in custody.
That's all I can really say. For now, the new parahuman will be officially announced as a member of the Brockton Bay Protectorate soon.

Damn. That video was sick as shit. Like watching an old kung fu movie on high-speed.
The guy is probably a former killer though. Speaking as a guy whos gotten good at analyzing capes, this guy is holding back on killing everyone he was meeting. There's an instinct there you only see in military guys. He's holding back, but he's either killed before, or is on the verge.

AnalEyes, that's a pretty hefty thing to accuse someone of. He reminds me of something I've seen before, but every thing we've seen so far says he's a nice guy. Or at the least, he's pretty casual, according to the footage. Hell, I could see myself drinking a beer with him.

Seriously, Kong did good work. For now, we just have a bunch of speculation on him. He's powerful, that's for sure, but we tend to act like this whenever a new Parahuman shows up. I doubt he'll do anything really crazy.
