30: Mad Doctor Mother
Fanfic
Doctor Mother didn't just find Eden's corpse. She also found a strange case full of vials locked in place, with only one loose. In a moment of poor judgement, she drank the vial. It was the Essence of the Mad Doctor, granting her all the benefits thereof. Sadly, it didn't come with a training manual, but she got the gist with time and effort.
As time went by, Cauldron was FAR more successful. Monster capes were the result of careful experimentation, not failures, the Doctor was far smarter and more careful in her actions, and each of the Founders (Hero survived) got their powers bolstered by her skill, not to mention her personally-empowered honor guard. This led to a cleaner, healthier world, where tinker-tech was getting cracked, laws and governments were less corrupt, and things were looking up…
… for everyone but you. For reasons unknown, Doctor Mother decided to see to it that the Brockton Bay experiment would turn out the exact same as it did before, with the same Nazis, rage-powered Asians, and druggies. Hell, even Leviathan and the SH9 are slated to be the same. With ONE tiny change.
You.
As time went by, various vials would unlock in the presence of certain people, or under certain conditions. As such, several 'Cauldron-ites' were running around under Essence-power. You are one such. Sadly, you woke up in, and bound to, Brockton Bay. What essence did you get, how are things different in this mostly-the same city, and what will you do?
Oh, and who are you?
Can only take one essence. Responsible for BB, the SH9, Leviathan, and Scion. Cannot leave the Bay area until the end. Can be any one person. Meta-knowledge permitted. Not doing anything is not. Can be a SI, OC, or one existing character. CAN trigger, but that will give Scion a copy of your abilities.
Have Fun!
