"I'd suppose that being a firefighter is a noble job, regardless of how big of an ego you've got. So long as it doesn't get in the way of your job." Acolyt tossed a set of keys up in the air, then caught them. Unlike a regular set of keys, these were held together by a long chain. Unusable...
"I understand. Be glad that Fission and I are your first partners, not anyone else. The majority of heroes here in Paragon strive for the limelight. They'd always fuck up the mission." Acolyt sucked in a breath and activated his ability, empowering any powers within the building. An explosion...
Acolyt frowned. "That's hilarious. But seriously, bank vaults need more than one person to open. I'll go with. Fission, do the rescue bit. Call the cops in."

"We brought Fission along, though I'm not sure if she can punch through the vault," Acolyt said, pointing his pistol at the vault. He hadn't cocked it since, and showed no intention of trying to shoot it; it would have been futile anyways.

"I shoulda mentioned this to you earlier, Knuckle Duster. My power 'roids up your power...
"Hello, Knuckle Dust-wait. Are you new? I've never seen you around," Acolyt inquired, raising an eyebrow. He scratched his head with the back of his wrist, barely bristling past his buzzed hair. It wouldn't be wrong to say that Knuckle Duster was the oddest-one-out of the four heroes on scene...
"Rescue units, can you hear this? Yes, you can, excellent. Active personnel within six blocks, make your way to the corner of Joan and Gulley avenues. We are severely lacking in on-site superpowers to deal with the current hostage situation. There are seven perpetrators within the Brimholtz...
After a certain point, even the bizarre became a routine. Paragon City, a lively place bustling with business and superheroes, was as alive as it always was. Cars, buses, and even a few trucks, the whole works, drove by without their drivers giving so much as a thought about the civilians. The...
I'd totally be down for this! I have a couple of premade characters as well. I'm most interested in a plot with The Pilgrim as well.
