There's a lot of news about "Lilith" today, enough that she needs her own thread. I don't have much time, so I'm just going to lay out what my contacts have been able to give me. I'll fill in more details later.
First, she's with the Undersiders now. [Link]
Lilith calls herself Empress. For whatever reason, the PRT has decided to retire the Lilith code name and call her by her chosen pseudonym. [Link]
Empress claims to have been forced into villainy by unjust persecution from the PRT and has acted in ways that make them believe that their psych profile on her is less than accurate. ENE is weighing their options and considering their next move, but central is kind of mad at them. [Link]
The tentative A-classification she was given after that video of her fighting Lung popped up is for real now. Apparently, Empress is a less-murderous mini-Crawler. [Link]

Void_Cowboy: I'm only eleven, so… Yeah. We wouldn't want to give people the wrong idea.
Anyway, I've been without a computer for a bit so I skimmed the last few pages. Have I got this straight?
1: Regent has lightning powers and is a stronger master than before, and Empress claims to be a Trump who makes powers stronger.
2: Her regeneration let her grow a new hand.
3: She has full-scale TK, can use it to kinda fly, and might be for-real psychic.
4: She can spawn or grow biological monstrosities now.
Do I have that right? Because… I know she's a "bad guy," but that's really neat!

Tinker_Girl: Yeah, we should probably forget about hanging out then, but I still think you should visit the Bay sometime... As long as it's not swarming with monsters.
And yeah, that sounds about right.
PS. You missed an argument about whether or not New Wave were secretly allied with E88. Seriously, even I think that theory was crazy.

Void_Cowboy: I'll ask Daddy about it, but I think I'd have to whip a few things up first.
The city does seem like it would be so much fun.

Tinker_Girl Whip a few things up? Are you a real Tinker?
Why don't you have a verified Cape badge?
►Tinker_Girl_2000
Replied On May 6th 2011:
Void_Cowboy Yes, I am.
You have to send in a picture of yourself using your powers, and Daddy doesn't want me sending pictures over the internet.
Besides, it's not like I'm a hero or anything. I just Tinker for fun... Or sometimes for safety. You would not believe how many times I accidentally cut myself before I cooked something up to stop that.
I'm gonna talk to Daddy about visiting Brockton Bay sometime soon, but I heard that something happened to ENE's PRT Director and it had something to do with Empress. What happened?

Tinker_Girl_2000: Director Piggot suffered a mild heart attack on the day that Empress and Kaiser had their final confrontation. She's expected to make a full recovery, but Deputy-Director Reineck says that a specialist is being assigned to fill in for her, due to the... sensitivity of the situation here in ENE.
That's all the PRT is at liberty to disclose at the moment.

Um...Okay, I don't live that far from the docks. I just saw one of those crabby looking ones carry a guy in Empire Colors right up to one of Bastion's Raiders and hand him over.

Specific_Protagonist: Empress is 15, this is your tenth inappropriate comment about her and twentieth total in just the last week, so enjoy your two-week ban and try not to be a creep when you get back.

Good fucking riddance to bad garbage, and good on her Imperial Highness for deposing that other, lesser empire.

Sumgai: Guy was an Empire True Believer, one who wasn't very bright, who Empress had met a couple times… He got caught trying something, and she gave him to us as a middleman to turn him over to the authorities on her behalf.
By the way, the recording of the other evening has been… edited, to deal with some of the… complications of the incident involving the guys who were holding the Undersiders down and the people who were meant to execute them… You know, for legal reasons. The relevant edits have been made and the video is now archived on our website. The ad revenue from that specific video will for the foreseeable future go towards the "Get the boss's kid a lawyer" fund, so if you Want Empress to be able to come home to her Daddy please watch, like, and share because the guy we're looking at does not come cheap.

The fuck is wrong with you people? She's the bastard spawn of Crawler and Nilbog being raised by Ziz and the Siberian! They need to kill the bitch before the city is overrun!
wagthedog I know this is late but I don't care that Hellhound didn't look like a serial killer for the little bit of video she was on, she still killed like, five people. Also, learn to English.

Void_Cowboy It'll be a while, but Daddy says that if things go well we'll be able to visit the Bay. It's gonna be so much fun, and maybe we'll even see Empress. The whole family is excited to come!
Psycho&Mouser Don't swear. It's rude.

Long Live Empress Taylor
Things had started going downhill a few weeks ago when some pervert hacked her PHO account. She should have known, when she found out, that it was a sign.
Around that time, she'd noticed that some of the victims running around the school didn't seem as afraid of them anymore, some of the hangers on were not so cozy with them as they used to be, and she thought that she'd seen Veder talking with one of those guys who'd been snooping around just the other day.
All of it had coincided with a certain little bitch going from the city's latest boogie man, spotted maybe once a week, to some big shot who made the news every other day-and a lot of it wasn't exactly bad news. Well, not bad news for her. It was kind of bad for them, the but the bitch was just walking around the city like she owned the place.
Then the bitch pulled a bunch of monsters out of her ass.
The other two were in denial. They believed that nobody would find out what they'd done, that the bitch wasn't stupid enough to come after them, they just had to stick to the plan. Bullshit, she'd been there when Emma ran, she knew how terrified she was. She wasn't going down because of them. She thought about it, and she decided to do what she had to do to save her own skin.
She'd laid the tears on thick when talking to her Daddy, and now she had a lawyer just in case-not that she wouldn't take jail over the inside of a monster's belly-and all that was left to do was make the call. The people from the Mayor's office had provided a number and a set of instructions-people who were scared to come forward could give information anonymously, but that wouldn't help her now, would it?
The phone rang three times before it was picked up. "Hello, mayor's office, what is your business?" asked a woman on the other end.
"I have a tip about the situation with Taylor Hebert.."
"Hold please."
She took a deep breath and prepared herself, as she counted the seconds, for what she had to say and how she had to say it. Nearly half a minute later a man's voice called out. "Hello, you've been forwarded to the THI line, what is your tip?"
"I'm sorry," she said in a voice filled with a well-practiced fear, "I know this is for anonymous calls, but I don't feel safe saying everything over the phone." She breathed, hard, and continued, "I need to meet with someone in person."
"Why is that? Are you in danger at this moment?" The man sounded both confused and concerned.
"No," she answered, "Bu-but they'll know if I tell you..." She took a sharp, audible deep breath and finished. "Look, my name is Madison Clements and I know who put Taylor in that locker."
