Omg, Lung just showed up at Parian's event at the Boardwalk, and they're totally going to fight! I'm hiding nearby right now, but I'll try to get a video of what Girl and the new chick Nightingale are here too. Hopefully the Protectorate can get here soon.

will upload video when I can.

edit: here's the link to the video I took! Lung's gone now and the place is swarming with PRT. Man they really wrecked this place. Purity and Dauntless are here right now also. I'm gunna go try to get some autorgraphs!

Wtf, are you insane? Get out of there. Dont stick around to record a video.

Lung's attacking the Boardwalk in broad daylight? There's no way the Protectorate are going to let this slide.

And seriously, +1 with what MeanWyrm said. You need to get out of there.

Right, like the Protectorate has done such a good job in the past with dealing with Lung. This is Brockton Bay. The gangs will do what they'll do, the PRT will put out a strongly worded press release, and things will go back to normal in a week.

C'mon man, that's a bit cynical. Our Protectorate does the best they can. They're outnumbered heavily by the villains, and if they ever go hard against any one of the gangs, the others step up and makes things really shitty everywhere else. They're pretty much caught between a rock and a hard place.

Holy crap the villains you guys have in BB are crazy. Things are so quiet over here in OKC by comparison O_O.

Brockton Bay: so shitty that capes from other towns feel the need to show up on our boards and comment about how shitty our town is.

I'm nearby in the area too, though I evacuated to a safe distance. It sounds like they're fighting now! Lung is such a dick. I hope Parian and Nightingale are OK. They don't have Glory Girl's invulnerability :(

Guys, there was a thread earlier today about a sighting of Armsmaster and a bunch of other BB Protectorate heroes in Charlestown. If they're still out there, they might not be able to get here anytime soon!

What the hell are they doing out there? Taking a vacation? Ffs.

►Valinor
Replied On Mar 11th 2011:
They're the Protectorate ENE, not the Protectorate Brockton Bay. Capes and villains exist outside of only the major cities you know. Every Protectorate hq is responsible for the general surrounding area around them.

The PRT just put out a press release here: link, and they're going to hold a press conference soon to discuss their next moves tonight at 8:00 PM.

What a load of crap! "Lung was driven off in a joint effort between Dauntless and a number of other unnamed independent capes."

I was there at the time. Dauntless didn't show up until the very end, and he didn't even do anything except let Lung walk away. It was mostly Glory Girl and Lung slugging it out the entire time, with Parian and Nightingale helping. Hell, even Purity showed up before Dauntless did.

Heh, well if there's three things in life you can count on, it's death, taxes, and the PRT making up bullshit to make themselves look better.

►Knopeden
Replied On Mar 11th 2011:
Yeah, a press conference detailing their next moves. I'm quivering in anticipation. They didn't even bother showing up while the Boardwalk was getting wrecked. Is anyone expecting them to magically announce that they're finally going to defeat the gangs?

►Mkez45634
Replied On Mar 11th 2011:
So what was the deal with the Protectorate? Why did they never show up?

►Glave
Replied On Mar 11th 2011:
I think they were responding to an out-of-town cape situation. Must have been pretty serious if it pulled so many heroes away from BB.

Topic:New Cape in BB, Nightingale, independent hero/PRT affiliated

The PRT ENE has just issued a press release, link here, about a new hero named Nightingale in Brockton Bay. There's a picture in the link, and so far the only thing we know about her powers are that she can heal. She is expected to start volunteering at the local BB hospitals this week or next week.

She's currently an independent, though it kinda sounds like she may join the Wards in the near future (yes, she's a minor. keep it appropriate), and the PRT have already labeled her as a PRT affiliate, which probably means that she's on call for healing. Panacea has a similar arrangement with the local PRT.

No pictures yet, but her costume was described as a white dress with red accents. She also has a thin, red cape attached to one shoulder.

edit: there have been some pics floating around now, see here: link link link

Nightingale was at the hospital two days ago and she healed my dad! It's a shame she's not more active on PHO. I sent her a PM to thank her, but she never responded I wanted to send her a card or present something.

►StrangerDanger(Verified Stalker)
Replied On Mar 11th 2011:
She probably gets tons of PMs from fans and people who want healing on here. Don't feel bad that she didn't respond! She never responds to my messages either T-T

Aww, she's just shy. You should see how much work it takes me to get her out of her... shell

►ElbowPuncher222
Replied On Mar 11th 2011:
So, Nightingale was at the Boardwalk earlier this afternoon with Glory Girl when Lung went on his latest rampage. Here's some video of her in action! link link

I always thought her power was only healing, but she's shown here flying and shooting purple laser beams!

►Mandabar
Replied On Mar 11th 2011:
Wow, she really won the power lottery. I'm guessing she's some kind of grab-bag trump like Myrddin or Eidolon? Why did she hide her powers?

►Semiautoscience
Replied On Mar 11th 2011:
She doesn't have to be a grab-bag trump. Maybe she copies powers from people around her? Let's look at the situtation. She's tight with New Wave (even her costume is kind of similar to what they wear!). She could've gotten the healing from Panacea, and the flight + purple lasers from Laserdream. Her lasers actually look really similar to Laserdream's!

►EFW3
Replied On Mar 11th 2011:
Or she could be an illegitimate New Wave child. Would explain why she's mostly been spotted with New Wave instead of joining the Wards.

I don't know if I'd say she's won the power lottery. Sure healing is an awesome ability, but based on the video, she looks a lot slower than Laserdream/Glory Girl in the air, and her lasers weren't really hurting Lung that much.

►SnickerSnack(Verified Tinfoil Hat)
Replied On Mar 11th 2011:
Ooh, plot twist, what if she's secretly Fleur's daughter? Didn't she have a kid who would be a teenager about now? Maybe that's why Lightstar left town, to protect their daughter! Would explain why she has the same powers as other New Wave members, the costume, even why she's not unmasked like the rest of her family.

*Tin_Mother: It's against the rules to speculate on the identity of a masked cape.

Ooooh there's an interesting idea! I think it 's come back to Brockton Bay to get revenge for her mom! I guess that means this is the end of the GloryxNights ship if that's true.

Private Message from Nightingale

Nightingale: Thank you for the lute! I love it.

Insight: Glad you like it ;). I have a feeling you'll be very good at it.

Nightingale: I've never played before. Any recommended books for self-teaching?

Insight: I'll look around and get back to you. You'll have to play for me sometime ;).

Nightingale: That would require us to meet.

Insight: One day. Look forward to it :)

Nightingale: Ha, you've been saying that for a while now. I don't believe you anymore.

Insight: :(


Private Message from Nightingale

Nightingale: Sooo… who was that guy you asked me to heal?

Insight: Wouldn't you like to know? Careful now, remember the rules.

Nightingale: Hah, I know. You don't have to tell me. I was just curious.

Insight: Let me guess, you're wondering if he's my boyfriend?

Nightingale: Is he?

Insight: Why, are you jealous? Just say the word sweetheart, and I'll leave him for you.

Insight: Hello? Don't ignore me.


Private Message from Nightingale

Insight: You've been holding out on me, you naughty girl.

Nightingale: What?

Insight: Your powers. You're still gaining new and better powers, aren't you. Why didn't you tell me :(

Nightingale: Sorry… I've been trying to keep it a secret

Insight: That's probably smart. Fighting Lung? Not so smart.

Nightingale: Not like I had a choice :(

Insight: Word of warning: you're even more attractive as a recruitment target now. I'd invest in a good home security system, and maybe some better security toys to keep on you. Quinn can set you up with a connection to the Toybox.

Nightingale: Toybox?

Insight: Collective of rogue tinkers who sell stuff to the general public. Super expensive price tags, but you can afford it, can't you?

Nightingale: Yeah, I'll ask Quinn about it. Hey, my burner phone was wrecked in the fight with Lung. What do you think about using just my PRT-issued phone for all my cape business?

Insight: That depends, do you 1) trust the PRT, and 2) never plan on doing anything illegal?

Nightingale: Yes, to both of those I guess. Sounds like you think it's a bad idea though.

Insight: Nobody plans on doing anything illegal. It just happens, sometimes beyond our control. You're such a goody-two-shoes that you'll probably be fine.

Insight: Btw, thanks for giving Purity a chance. She's really trying to do good. And I'm not just being paid to say that.

Nightingale: Yeah, no problem. People deserve second chances, and I sleep much easier knowing she's on our side.

Insight: I know it wouldn't be popular PR wise, but you should consider getting closer to her. She'd make a powerful ally, and she'd definitely appreciate what you bring to the table.

Insight: Just saying, it's a smart idea to be on the good side of the most powerful blaster in town.

Nightingale: I'll think about it.

Insight: OK, that's all I can ask for. And also, I'm glad you're safe
