>>41512
From the picture, they both have no gender. We're just picking apparent gender

>>41516
Fine, Male then.

Female. Time Travel, invulnerability

Most of these choosey-quests default to female. Which is nice and all, but gets a bit predictable.

So I'm going to say Male.

Gender: Male
Abilities: Electricity, Super Strength

Speed, electricity, I don't care what gender.

WE WILL BE THE FASTEST FUCKER AROUND. FLASH WON'T HAVE SHIT ON US.

Male.

Speed reading, sense of direction.

male, invulnerability, flight.
we can do anything and go anywhere.

You obtained popcorn for examination of possible villainy. Sadly, the cutest female cashier didn't buy into your excuse, and made you pay the insanely exorbitant theater snack price.

You give both the popcorn and the movie a quick scan for villainy. None found, but what if there was villainy lurking at the end of the movie and the bottom of the popcorn bag? It's your duty to remain vigilant about these things!

Not wanting to get involved in something as undignified as an insult fight when you are a superhero, you inform Prismatica that she is a bad excuse for both a human and a hero. She tells you to die in a ditch.

You make sure to throw out your Prismatica fan club badge. And to think you were planning to have her sign it when you were a big shot superhero!

Don't read it at your desk, that's unprofessional!

Sneak it into the bathroom and read it in there.

You sneak off to the bathroom so as to appear to be a model employee. You do want that promotion!

What is this?

Basalt and Battery!?! They spelled your name wrong! And Prismatica managed to steal your spotlight by not even being there!

Ahahahahaha. Ahah hahahahaha. Hahahaha.

That made me lol so hard.

Oh, Spectrum's just bitter because he had to run around shooting rainbows at people.

OH NOES!

Listen close, Battery. Prismatica may be a bit of a... okay, a lot of a bitch, but you'll be worse than her if you don't look into this! She may not be a damsel in distress, exactly, but she is a fellow super and you're all in this together! I'm certain you have vacation time saved up for just such an occasion!

you have to admit basalt and battery is a pretty cool name too.

You're right. You signed up to fight for justice, and that means fighting for it even if the one in peril is a mega-bitch.

You'll dip into your vacation time to take the rest of the day off.

Where should you start looking?

:METAGAMEING: Try strange bars.

Non-metagaming: Ask her father where he heard from her last. Work with other heroes and ask your sidekick for help.

:METAGAMEING: This was foul play.

You're in luck! Josie tells you that she start poking around since she read about the disappearance this morning.

Josie tells you that there is definitely something strange going on. Apparently, Arc City has a history of people disappearing. Similar missing person cases have popped up on the same day annually as far back as the records in Arc City go.

Is there any pattern? similar careers? Firefighters, policemen, lawyers, bitches, etc? There may or may not be a larger ploy here. What we need to do here is work with the police on this matter. be organized! Be efficient! Have a plan to... just have a plan.
