Superheroes of the Trust Game Thread

[Victim]

Okay, this initiation thing seems weird. I hope we don't have to anything freaky. Wait, that's it? But isn't one code name enough?

Megan asks "So we choose a second code name?" It was so easy to pick the first one too she thinks sarcastically. Probably a bad idea to double up, so pick something unique. Shooting Star looks down, hoping to derive some inspiration from her existing costume and codename. "How about Argent?"

Since she didn't get a chance to talk to Brimstone or see how he fought, Megan attempts to use her new database access to search for information about him. (Computers +17, take 10)

Nitro lights up. "Sigma Gold. Dibs!"

Great, now it looks like I'm ripping off his precious metals theme.

 

[DM_Matt]

(BTW, I'd like everyone to choose a color for the stuff they say. It can be the same or different from the one in your callsign.)

"What is the point of chosing a color, most of us already have alternate Aliases"

Mr. Black says "Standardized call signs mostly, plus another layer of protection of your true identities never hurts."

It seems that you now have access to all the files about each other that they showed you in the van about yourselves. You all basically have access to each others' character backgrounds.

Mr. Black says "Standardized call signs mostly, plus another layer of protection of your true identities never hurts."

"Sometimes I wonder how much even the first layer helps. Tracking down my identity wouldn't be all that much easier if I used part of my real name."

Umm, that's a lot more information than I really wanted available. And I don't really feel comfortable with the others seeing everything about me, either. Feeling somewhat embarrassed at her ability to pry, Megan limits herself to examining Brimstone's crime fighting record. "Apparently our access to files includes each other's secret identities and background records," she says.

 

[Jemal]

"I've always been fond of Red." Optic grins. Finally, a real team of real heroes, no more soloing.

 

[Shayuri]

Thessaly gives Megan a look, then shrugs. "I guess that's okay with me. I mostly hide my identity to protect people around me, and because things could get a little awkward if everyone knew I was a witch. People get kind of...nervous about magic, even if they're okay with someone being able to throw cars into orbit."

"As for color...white seems kind of tacky. I guess I'll go green."

Ms. White gives a look of feigned offense.

Mr. Blue continues: "You may have noticed that you can access each others' files, including your true identities. I assure you however that only those with an Alpha or Sigma designations can see that information. The rest of the organization cannot. Similarly, you have access to some information about heroes from other teams, but no secret identities.


Ms. White continues "One final job them, before we show you your quarters and our crime labs so that you can get down to business. You should come up with a public name for your team. The Trust does not need or desire credit, but you might choose to build a reputation as a superteam."
