In the interest of full transparency this is a recruitment post. I won't pretend it isn't anything else.
The base of operations I've been building took damage in the chaos with the monsters. Fortunately it's salvageable and it knocked the price down enough to make it worth it. Unfortunately that means it needs work.
I've got the cash, but having more hands on deck would make this go a lot faster. If you're interested reach out. I can pay.
With all of that being said, I intend to get combat training up and running again. You don't need to want to put on a mask to benefit from this. Knowing how to fight and what kind of fighting you excel in is the difference between life and death. The base I was talking about before is intended to become both an area to train the body and focus on testing the limits of powers. Which means we'll likely have to make specialized areas to account for people's abilities and keep a record of who can do what. Can't make you do it, but its useful to have.
That isn't the only thing I'm recruiting for. Some of who you know me will probably know what this is. To others - I'm recruiting for a hero team.
I've been holding off on doing this properly until I was sure it can be done, and it can. Before you scoff at the idea of masked vigilantism: it works. I've come up with both affordable protective gear and a means to stay anonymous. I've been working the streets since the monster attacks and there's a difference being made, but more could be done. One man isn't an army and there's an army of people out there willing to take advantage of those in need.
And what I need is more than just fighters. I need investigators. I need people willing to play watchman and monitor situations from afar. The good thing about doing work like this is it makes a difference. You can see it every day you hit the streets. You're helping rebuild community and defending those who can't defend themselves.
But that being said, this job isn't easy. It isn't like the movies make it seem. We do this in a crisis but this is making a life out of it. You will see things that will haunt you and the very worst aspects of humanity. But you'll also see the very best. It will take, and take, and take from you, but you're giving back. This world and its people took us in and I feel I owe it to give back to them. Not everyone feels that way. That's fine.
Some people have already expressed interest in the past. Either here or in private. Power structure and division of duties can be discussed once I have a better idea of who wants in.
