[Locked to Luceti residents]

[The following message is typed, but an automated computerized voice option is available as well. It will appear on the journal system at around 6AM.]

Approximately three hours ago, the experimental enclosure known as Kin’cora, located in Region Six, was attacked by a cultist army led by the entity known as The General. His forces breached the barrier and began their invasion. Malnosso Security Forces responded in turn and decimated his forces. Just under half of the enclosure's population was killed or taken for sacrifice before the situation was resolved.

By order of the Commandant, the enclosure designated as Luceti has been approved as a temporary refuge for displaced subjects of the Kin’cora experiment. In approximately six hours, subjects will begin to arrive. They will remain there until such a time as they can be moved to more permanent accommodations. Note, the Kin’cora journal system will be deactivated while within the Luceti enclosure.

Cultist activity continues to be high in Region Six. Expect additional supplies to be limited until situation is resolved. Emergency rations will be routed to the enclosure as they become available. Subjects are urged to use current provisions wisely and to cooperate with displaced refugees. For safety purposes the Shift limiting superhuman abilities will be reduced to ten percent. No further details will be made available at this time.

End message.

[His thoughts exactly, Wolvie. Something like a simple change in venue wasn't going to deter the General. They needed to be ready.]

I'll be ready to suit up at the drop of a hat. The power cap isn't going to make things simple for most combatants around here, though. We need people who don't rely too heavily on special abilities like that.

[Including you, mutant bro.]

[snikting]

Good. We can use the extra firepower.

[Logan may be close to running on 'normal', but he doesn't need his powers to be effective. They just help. A lot.]

[alloys]

[He's one of the lucky ones.]

Good thing I always happen to have a little extra firepower in store.

[snikting]

Keep an eye on the skies. Those buzzards can fly as well as you can.

[So it's as good a place to stage an invasion from as anywhere.]

[alloys]

But they can't aim as well. I'll keep an eye out.

[handing]

[Of course Tony's one of the first to step up here, even with the power cap. She keeps it short, though; Pepper's put a fair bit on her own plate too.]

Be careful.

[alloys]

[Pepper, when is he ever not careful.

...Don't answer that.]

I will. Top of my to-do list.

[voidseeing]

I'll gather a list of those of us who don't use powers to fight and set up a journal filter. We may need it later.

[alloys]

[Hey, he's even willing to admit that's a good idea.]

Right. Calling cards for those willing to fight the good fight.

[voidseeing]

Exactly. With this many refugees coming in, someone is going to have to keep things in order.

[alloys]

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst--though in this situation, I'm willing to bet more on the "worst" than the "best". We'll be much better off prepared.

[voidseeing]

You sound like you have experience with this. A military man, or a member of the police force? Or perhaps something else?

[alloys]

Something like that. [He worked for the military at one point. And he's kind of police in the sense that he protects and serves the people.] I'm a superhero. Superhero.

[The super part is important.]

[voidseeing]

Oh? I always thought superheroes were supposed to use masks and costumes to hide their identities instead of broadcasting it to everyone.

[alloys]

Well. I'm hardly your typical superhero.

[voidseeing]

Then what's your special power?
