♦ Topic: Lung escapes. New Ward appears
In: Boards ► News ► Events ►America
Bagrat (Original Poster) (Veteran Member) (The Guy in the Know)
Posted on April 20th, 2011:
So, for those who were either asleep or drunk out of their minds, yesterday saw the PRT HQ attacked by Oni Lee and members of the ABB, aided by distractions caused by the ABB's newest tinker, Bakuda (link here).
We all know Lung got away and don't that suck, but the bigger news is that Brockton Bay just got itself a new Ward who made her debut tonight, and that Lung had quite the interesting reaction to her.
As your resident Guy "In the Know", I thought I'd offer you what I've been able to find out from my sources.
· Lung is freed by Oni Lee
· Armsmaster tries to capture (re-capture?) him in running battle
· Oni Lee fights with Shadow Stalker and new Ward
· Oni Lee beaten back by new Ward and Shadow Stalker
· Lung appears in front of new Ward, takes a long look at her and then RETREATS
Yes, you heard me right. After that, the remaining ABB members who were too injured or too slow to escape were rounded up and arrested. Meanwhile, my sources tell me that the new Cape – who may or may not be called "Denial" – is going to be introduced to the public in the coming days.
So, what do we think?
Edit: April 21st: We now have confirmation on the name "Denial" thanks to a press release from the PRT, and confirmation that Denial was in fact the one to assist Armsmaster in dealing with Lung the first time, confirming rumours that Armsmaster was not alone in taking him down.

@ Void_Cowboy
I'm saying that just because PRT didn't tell the entire truth about Armsmaster not beating Lung, it doesn't mean they're lying about everything else. There is probably a reason for it. Denial – and I know, what a name – clearly doesn't have any problem with not having received the credit if she's there fighting Lung as a Ward.

Anyone notice that Denial's costume is sorta similar to Shadow Stalker's? And they were fighting together.

It does look like the two have similar costumes though. Some kind of theme? Maybe they knew each other before the wards – and no, that's not me speculating re identities. Maybe they were vigilantes together or something. I'd be fine with that. SS rocks and SS + 1 is bound to be just as awesome. And they beat back Oni Lee together! So proud right now.
Either way, Denial must be a heavy hitter if she's been able to take down Lung.

Problem is that from the footage we have – and Bagrat, seriously, how did you get footage from a PRT camera? – we don't SEE Denial using any powers against Lung.
Question is, does that mean she didn't, and Lung was afraid, or that she DID, and we don't see it?

Master, you thinking?
Telling Lung to flee?

She'd have told him to surrender if that was true

Some master powers can be too specific for that. Think August Prince. Not everyone has a Canary power.

Replied on April 21st, 2011:
What we know so far of Denial is that she, like her namesake, has an interesting verbal tic wherein she must always deny being a Cape. This isn't the first time we've had odd Capes, Myrddin springs to mind, but it would be one of the first times a Cape makes a claim which is so… hard to believe.
► White Fairy (Veteran Member)
Replied on April 21st, 2011:
Lol. Look at me, I'm not a cape!
Punches out Lung, Hookwolf and Rune.
Just normal girl things, tyvm!
► Xyloloup
Replied on April 21st, 2011:
Doesn't look like a power to me. Looks like Lung backed away because he figured he couldn't beat her. Probably remembering what happened last time and thinking Denial, Armsmaster and every other Hero there can bring him down even faster.
No news from PRT yet. Where's the Verified Responders when you need them?

Curiously Absent.
I smell a press release being formed!!!
► Reave (Verified PRT Agent)
Replied on April 21st, 2011:
You smell right, Umbral.
I have been given permission to share limited information re the night in question. Firstly, we can confirm that Lung has escaped custody, but we assure you the PRT is doing all it can to bring him, and his new tinker Bakuda, to justice.
Secondly, no Protectorate Capes were injured or lost in the battle. Any rumours to the contrary will be disproved in the coming days. We suffered losses only to PRT Agents, a list of which will be released tomorrow.
Finally, due to the news already being out in some form or another, the PRT has decided to allow Denial a limited time to come and answer questions here on PHO. This is a rare opportunity and she is still new to the Brockton Bay Wards ENE, so appreciate this opportunity and do not squander it.

Welcome Denial and ignore Mr. Fabuu. I think in the absence of Void_Cowboy, he felt the need to fill in on the forum's ban quota. I'm sure we all get you not being able to answer everything. Just say if you can't.
I wanted to ask about your powers but, well, I have to ask.

► Denial (Verified Cape) (Wards ENE)
Replied on April 21st, 2011:
I didn't really do all that much against them. Shadow Stalker did most of the work on Hookwolf.
As for what's next, I can't comment on PRT operations, but I need to give a speech when I'm first introduced. I'll be practising for that for the immediate future.
After?
I guess I'll be spending all my time trying to open people's eyes to the truth.

Don't be mean, UmbralCape. Denial said she's not a Cape and I believe her. Only bad people lie.
But if you're not a Cape, then that means you're really strong! Like, really, really strong. If I come to Brockton Bay can I meet you?

Sorry, I'm not used to writing so fast.
@ GoodGirl – I don't know if we can meet face-to-face, but I think the Wards have to do meetings with the public every now and then. Maybe we could meet then. Thank you for believing in me.
@ Chaosfaith – I didn't work with Shadow Stalker before, but we may be working together in the future. She's helped me numerous times now and I owe her. I hope to call her friend, but we'll have to see.

I'm just glad to know we have another Cape on the Wards.
Powers, though, since Denial won't – can't? – tell us. I propose that she is an Alexandria package, on account of the fact that if Lung wanted to kill her, he could have just attacked her and been done with it. Anything else doesn't make sense, as power or not, she'd still be squashed.

Think of the name guys. The name. Denial.
What does she deny? Apart from being a Cape, I mean. What if the name is more literal. She Denies being a Cape and thus YOU (or the Cape she is facing) loses their Cape powers. Bam. Instant normal-on-normal fight.

Replied on April 21st, 2011:
You're saying she's a trump @Nod?
That's a pretty ballsy claim. Low-level trumps go unnoticed but to actually stop powers might make her like Hatchett Face. You sure you want to say that?

Powers don't make someone evil. Hatchett Face CHOSE to be evil.

That's ridiculous. That's approaching Eidolon levels!

Guys, I can answer this for you. I don't have powers.
► Nod
Replied on April 21st, 2011:
I'm not saying she's the next Eidolon, just that her powers might be ranked that high. Threat rating is for threats, remember. It's a pretty big threat to be against a Cape who can literally cancel out other Capes. Especially if she can do it against Lung of all people.
► Space Zombie
Replied on April 21st, 2011:
Got a point.
The name has to have something to do with powers. Probably the whole denying being a cape thing too. Else why do it?

Denial definition is:

Hey Denial.
Not to toot my own horn but just wanted you to know I wrote a fanfic about you. The basic idea is that you're ACTUALLY a normal girl with no powers trying your best to convince everyone but being dragged along with the PRT by a series of unbelievable events.
