𝐖𝐇𝐎: CALDRA THORNE & ETIENNE ST JUSTE ( @bovndlcss ) 𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄: ABOARD THE HARBINGER

𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐃𝐑𝐀 𝐇𝐀𝐃 𝐀𝐋𝐖𝐀𝐘𝐒 𝐅𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐐𝐔𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐍 𝐎𝐃𝐃. She supposed that it was important to have a variety of different skillsets upon a functional ship ( although she herself covered more than her fair share of skill – easily THE HARBINGER'S most gifted fighter, and negotiator, and problem-solver,  even if nobody else agreed with this assertion ), even if she sometimes wondered about the necessity of some crew members. All this being said, Caldra would be lying if she claimed that ETIENNE did not fascinate her. He was so profoundly different to most pirates she had encountered – well-educated, averse to fighting, and seemingly intrigued by Caldra's many embellished stories about her youth.

Perhaps this is why she seeks him out, finding the archivist in his quarters – decorated with old parchment and letters and scrolls filled with words in languages that Caldra cannot understand. Her own quarters are contrastingly bare – perhaps a holdover from her time with THE CLAVE – adorned only with a collection of weapons harvested from her fallen enemies and a too-small cot. She bares her teeth in an impression of a smile, picking up a dust-covered book and turning it over in her hands. "Spanish," She notes, not bothering with pleasantries such as "hello", or "may I come in?" "Where'd it come from?" She asks instead.

I've read the comic version of The Power Fantasy up to issue 8. Just letting everyone know. I am now crazy.

7th superpower Taylor Hebert aka Weaver. Controls all of the bug life on the planet including crabs, prawns, krill and other sea bug life. As of 1999 the most over-worked 4 year old imaginable but she loves her job. Confined to a hospital bed because her consciousness is spread across all of the bug-like creatures of the planet and her brain waves are similar to that of a coma patient (though she can still move her eyes and listen and eat and move her head). Has an entire department within the USA's Department of Agriculture and their mirror organizations in every other nation dedicated to liaising with her. Set to end world hunger by 2004 and is instrumental in the breakneck pace of helping turn the Sahara desert into a food forest.

Both parents are still alive and it's kinda uneasy how many attempts there are against them, since almost everyone knows how it goes trying to fight a superpower. Secret Service details on both of them. USA is unsure if killing her would also cause total brain death of bug life or set them back to normal. Her capacity for spying on people is a step below Lux's omnipathy. From her parents comes a leftist bent that aligns her with Heavy, but because Lux is the biggest conversationalist she has, she's more in his camp. Valentina's biggest fan. Hellbound, Magus and Masumi aren't really present in her life, but she's aware of the Pyramid and the destruction of Europe and Tokyo. Born well after the second summer of love, she's a young superpower amongst a team of very bitter rivals with long histories.

What I'm actually unsure of is how many megadeaths she's capable of. For those who haven't read The Power Fantasy, it's an estimation of how many millions of people per hour she could kill. Three of the superpowers are at the max of 6000 megadeaths, all six billion people on earth dead in a single hour or less. The weakest is Masumi's at 250 megadeaths, a quarter billion per hour, and that's because she's got a kaiju to end all kaiju. I think Taylor can be set at a reasonable 33 megadeaths. Travel time of her bugs cuts her per hour abilities short, but the reality is that if Taylor died or stopped working, the whole world would starve to death not too long after.
