ATTENTION AGENTS



Anti-Metahuman rallies have been targeted lately by a rogue metahuman, leaving several injured and a few dead. As Paradigm agents it is of utmost importance to stop these attacks, as they only increase prejudice between the powered and unpowered.

Projected Difficulty: B
Number of Agents: 2-4
Type of Assignment: Open Ended

Aaron's heard about this on the news. Even without worries about meta/non-meta tensions, this wasn't something Paradigm could allow to happen. How could he stand by and not do anything about it? He signs up for the mission!

Angel was itching to get out and do something bashing in some murderers head sounded like just the thing. He signs up as well.

Piper snickers to herself and appears from behind Aaron. "Looks like we're working together," she says, signing up.

Miranda also signs up. It won't do anyone any good if this is left unchecked.

Rather than kick out a defense person, I'll open this up to a 5th person for another intel spot if someone wanted in.

(If someone needs to get kicked out, you can kick Piper out. I'd like to be in on it, but if it makes things unbalanced, I was the last defense to post in.)

Aaron checks to see if there's any intel on where the attacks have happened, lists of suspects, anything that would help them come up with the start of a plan.

Attacks have happened at anti-meta rallies for the most part. Most suspected targets have been key speakers.

"Oh! I'll look up where the next rally will be! He's bound to show up, right?"

Enya takes out her phone and looks up when the next anti-meta rally will be held around here!

"Good thinking, Eithne."

He gives her a smile and narrows his search! He meant suspected attackers.

"Do we warn the people at the rally the attack might happen? Or no, since our perp might smell a rat?"

"Don't warn anybody," Piper said, leaning back. "We need to be pretty inconspicuous. If they know we're on to them, they might hide. Like cockroaches. Or they might come on stronger." She shrugged. "We need the element of surprise."

"Has the guy left behind anything? Any weapon or scrap of clothing? If I can get a wiff of it I might be able to sniff him out."

Angel would say from his corner.

Miranda is using her phone to look up the names of the speakers, especially if there are any that have been at multiple rallies. Also, what the news has claimed the cause of death or injuries as.

"Warning anyone ahead of time might draw attention, but I imagine they already think something's going to happen just from these previous attacks. It might open some doors for us, however."

Most of the attacks have been by gunshot! There's been the sound of fire, but no bullets or casing ever recovered. There's been flashes of red light upon impact, however.

The next rally is in southern Illinois!

No persons of interest so far to be regarded as suspects!

"What damage was done to the bodies? Are there any differences to how the bodies were killed vs normal shot victims?"

Aaron looks into that question! He's still mulling over the question of warnings, though.

"I don't think they're going to take too kindly to us just showing up at their rally without any word, especially not if this is how they're getting attacked. I mean, everyone knows Paradigm wouldn't do this, but people get... nervous."

Who is organising the next rally? Maybe they can talk to them, and just them about it.

"Southern Illinois!" she announces before looking at Aaron.

"I wouldn't warn them, personally. For one, I can't imagine they'll know we're metas if we play along. We look like any other people." she giggles.

"And if we warn them we might mess up catching the rogue."

Miranda nods at the remark of blending in. At least they had that on their side.

At Angel's question, she looks into any further correlations, as well as if there are any big names that would be potential targets at the event.

"People could die because we didn't tell them a killer was coming when we knew it might happen."

He sighs. They all make good arguments, putting the word out just meant something could go wrong and make the attacker go to ground, then they'd be stuck, but there's a knot in his gut at the idea of letting innocent people be at risk. Still, there was the risk anyway until they stopped this person, right?

"Fine. I don't like it, but no warnings. Did you find anything on how many people are expected there, Eithne? Or anything more specific? Southern Illinois is still half a state."

It'd be easier to find a killer in a crowd of tens or hundreds than thousands, for example.

"Heheh, I'll look into it!"

And as promised she looks for anything about where specifically and how many are expected there!

The keynote speaker is a former professor from SIU, Dr. Franklin!
