That's not how Coil's men dress, at least it's not their standard
equipment. But if they are his people, the man's going to get a kill
order for that. Look at what happened to the city for it!
► Golden Foot

Holy SHIT, look at that gun! I want one, where do you think he got
it? Does anyone have a vid of this? I want to see that monster in
ACTION!

Who cares if that is Coil or not?! AT least someone took that crazy

Oooh boy this is rather interesting, so Coil was hiding his true
strength given what his people just did to Bakuda there. The guy
showed he was a pro Going after a tinker in Her own lab the man
gave his People the gear they Needed to complete their mission, also
I disagree the Man did NOT Snap but he did something that was
done back in the day: enforce the Unwritten Rule, bakuda attacked
Oblivium's family Coil showed her and the others those are not things
that are done in Brockton Bay. As for him having a kill order ? Why
? HE is not the one who made those Bombs and put them
everywhere on the Docks.
► Stampfoot
Replied on April 18, 2011:
I personally applaud those people whoever they are because unlike
the so called "heroes"they get shit done. Also who says the Bombing
happened because Bakuda died ? t could be she got killed by those
guys because of those bombings.
► NotaName
Replied on April 18, 2011:
Holy crap, Coil's got a badass on his payroll. It takes balls of pure
titanium to just walk into a tinker's base. Did he die when the
bombs went off? Still, props to Coil for enforcing the unwritten rules.
► BullheadedA
Replied on April 18, 2011:
I do not think so, Coil would not have gotten through the trouble of
outfitting the guy with diffrent gear than his regular goons for the
guy to get murked that easily, My money is on the fact the gear had
some stuff in it that protected the guy and the woman who was with
him, either that or they got teleported away.
► KuroJacobby
Replied on April 18, 2011:
Psh...As if Coil could have something like that, true the guy might
have badasses on his payroll and good gear but if he had access to
stuff like teleporters he would have expanded his territory by now.
► BobMorane
Replied on April 18, 2011:
By the way do we know where Coil gets his gear from ? My theory
is that the guy is a Tinker who was smart enough to realise he
wasn't cut out to use his own gear on the field.
► IlFernando!!
Replied on April 18, 2011:
Say, if Coil is hiring Mercs so what doesn't he hire people like Watch
I mean given the numbers he has and the stuff he outfits them with
why not go for high class parahuman operators.End of Page. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

Oh nonononnonope I do NOT want that pscyho Watch anywhere
near the Bay, this guy is totally screwed up and very bad news I'm
from Baltimore and I know some people who had to deal with the
guy...and it was not pretty (to be clear they were indepdant heroes
and were his targets, notice how I used past tense) But your way
of thinking is right why doesn't he hire Parahuman mercenaries ? I
mean The Bay has Faultline's crew.
► Regis
Replied on April 18, 2011:
Dude, if you are from Baltimore what do you care about the guy
coming to BB ? Plus if he killed heroes the guy should have a kill
order. Anyway I think he is not hiring the crew because from what
I heard they do not kill and are pretty indepandent, so if Coil is the
micromanaging type they are not a good fit for him.
► PhelliusMorenus
Replied on April 18, 2011:
Ah, sorry if I was confusing: I currently live in Brockton but I spent
most of my life in Baltimore, as for the heroes he did not kill them
he damaged their nerves and internal organs leaving crippled and
in constant pain and healers like Panacea can't help them because
well nerve damage and brain issues, so I repeat you do NOT want
that guy around.
As for Why Coil does not make use of Parahuman personnel, easy
because regular people are easier to deal with and control, plus
most Parahuman have an Ego.
► ConspiracyTheorist
Replied on April 18, 2011:
Good job from the Coil's organisation on enforcing the rules!! As for
Coil getting a kill order, well he might but it's not a problem since
there is NO Coil: I am pretty sure he is a character created by either
an organisation of normals, or low powered Tinkers and Thinkers
to draw ther enemies' attention on having them believe they just
have to kill "Coil"to end their organisation, and each of his
appearance is either an actor or one of their group playing the part.

♦Topic: Shard, Oblivium's Fairy
In: Boards ► News ► Heroes ► America ► Brockton Bay
Lady Cicero (Cape Nerd) (Original Poster)
Posted on April 16, 2011:
Ok, so I've seen several mentions ofyet anothernew power of Oblivium's,
so I am bringing together what is known here:
1) Oblivium can create a small Projection of a fairy, in the same light
blue-green light as the rest of his power. She stands around a foot tall,
with flames for hair and small insectoid wings.
2) She can appear to react independantly of Oblivium, moving around and
interacting with people, even if he isn't watching them directly (Possibly
can see through her eyes?)
3) There is some claim that she can use the same powers as Oblivium as
well, according to one of the Merchant rage-posts that got deleted over
on the Backup Buddies page.
4) She likes hugs.
Does anyone have anything else? I'll edit this post with new information if
people can provide some backup evidence for it.
EDIT: Ok, so apparently her name is Shard. I'll try and see about getting
a mod to edit the title.
EDIT 2: OK, the title is updated.

Oh great one of THOSE nutjobs... sigh, anyway from what I have
seen at Arcadia the little girl never strays too far from Oblivium, so
that would imply some sort of range limit, also I got hugged in face
by her and I am still alive and have not cancer, just saying. Also
Oblivium refered to her as his sister in class, though he might have
done so to annoy the teacher.

Anyway, if he is openly using his powers in public, then I think that
counts as tacit consent. Just don't go naming names unless you see

has to be a member if she doesn't leave his side. Does anyone

My theory is that Shard is an autonomous Tinkerbot that Oblivium

Meh, stop spewing bullshit everyone knows ArachneXOblivium OTP,
now more on topic: Impact is awesome and has a very strong power
and he is very useful and quite likeable, however against soome
powers his lack of mobility could be a huge problem for him, not only
that but there has to be a timelimit on his breaker state, BTW how
long was he in the Bay before Halbeard fished him out ?

Psh, that guy was a fucking Merchant he is no hero, I am pretty sure

Armsmaster with demeaning nicknames!
►Lady Cicero (Cape Nerd)
Replied on April 19, 2011:
Ok, can someone clear something up for me? Where is the idea that
Impact was a Merchant Cape coming from? I saw it pop up in the
main Backup Buddies thread, but all I could find was the fact that A)
the Backup Buddies first met him at a fight with the Merchants, and
B) that it took them a while to pick him up from the Protectorate. Is
there anything else?
Oh, and I do have to agree with Brak about the nickname. Halbeard
was funny a couple of times, but Armsmaster has done some good
work, not just in Brockton Bay, and he deserves at least a bit of
respect. Even farther north up here, he's helped collaborate on some
take downs.

Seriously, enough with the Oblivimom jokes I'm sick of those, hey
Mods could you do something about those ? Now I do not know
anything about Impact's alleged past with the Merchants but I think
Nicknaming Armsmaster is actually a good thing: The guy, when you
see him, seems like a robot oh there are other serious heroes out
there like Alexandria or Chevalier but they still feel human and I do
not get that sensation from Armsmaster and I think nicknaming him
humanises him, Hell I would like to see someone do it live on his
face to see him react as a human. And that's why Impact or
Oblivium are so great, they way they are and act with all their quirks
and little inperfections and jokes show that they are just regular
people that can do stuff most can't as opposed to look completly
remote and Inhuman.

the guy, and some say Skidmark put a bounty in drugs and money

Can manipulate powers in some capacity, altering, granting,

make only stuff once.
►FrancisTheHun
Replied on April 18, 2011:
I dunno about that, but if he really is a Tinker Armsmaster must be
flipping his lead because the guy did not join the Wards proper and
as such he has no access to Oblivium's tech. Nor does Dragon for
that matter, she must be a bit peeved too to not be able to integrate
yet another Tinker's work to her tech.

Alleyfreaks came in and took over the crime around the college
campus, covered up the old tags, stuff like that. Speaking of which,
do the Undersiders even have tags? I've seen E88, ABB, and

I agree with the Lady, I do not think the Undersiders worked or work
for Coil, the guy is more about military style operatives and discipline
plus he doesn't seem to have any Parahuman on Payroll,so the
Undies don't quite fit. As for the tags well Coil desn't have them, it's
unprofessional, a street trash thing not a professional operator thing
and the Undersiders don't have because they most likely "take"Coil's
old territory because they or one them live in the area and don't
want shit happen on their doorstep, guys are thieves they don't do
anything requiring a territory.
►PokingBehemoth

Well my dear Sparky they might be looking into expending and

they did not spring Grue out.

Yeah well it might not be that easy, you know the PRT has lots of
people and there's also a thing called the Protectorate working for
them. Besides Grue is better off where he is because Kaiser is going
to gut the Undersiders and have them impaled on the top of Captain

Why are they still called the Backup Buddies? I've only been reading
about them here, but it sound like they have been doing more for the
city than anyone else.

It's their name. If they want to change it, they can, but it's up to
them.

Hey, I know the BBuddies are a hot topic, but they aren't the only
heroes in town. They may have made a bigsplash when they first
showed up, but we are still heading out to do our part as well.

HEy, Clocks! Is it true that SS is leaving the wards? I heard she's a

You're all off topic. I think that the big thing is going to be the E88

the streets.

Hey, I just saw on the Midwest news board, Barrow is moving east.
Maybe the Fairy Forest is coming to the bay?

HEY Clockblocker you do realise that your statement that you are
allegedly doing something too is very susicous and a tad too
defensive ?As for the Backup Buddies of course they are the only
ones doing something that truly matters, same as the Brockton Bay
Brigade before they lost their way and became New Wave. THEY
were the one who took down Marquis who ridiculed the whole
Protectorrate team more than ones by himself. THEY were the ones
keeping the Teeth and Allfather's Empire in check while the
PRT/Protectorate and the Cops cowered in their quarters. Today the
Backup Buddies are the same: THEY took down Lung and the ABB at
large while the local Protecorate couldn't do shit. THEY were the one
who neutered Coil and on the top of it THEY almost got a group of
E88 capes if not for Bakuda and Miss FUCKING Militia letting those
Nazi degenerates go the Empire would be short three capes,
Hookwolf among them and DO NOT tell me it didn't happen I SAW it
with my own eyes as I live in the area where it happened. As for
Shadow Stalker I understand she had enough of the wards and
wants to be in a team that actually does stuff.

I think the Empire is not making much waves right now because they
are planning something big: given their numbers they can take all
the curret factions present in the Bay without any problem, but to do
so they need to plan their strike properly, and Kaiser, despite being a
nazi is rather smart an cunning I am pretty sure he is planning a
strike to take over erything at once.

Heh, if the fairy forest comes to the Bay, then the city will have two

name I just forgot.

Shard, that's Oblivium's fairy's name. Now you know what I am
really afraid of ? is that the Vacuum in the city is noticed by the
Butcher and that the Teeth come back here, I lived though the time
they were a power in the city and those guys are very very
dangerous and utterly batshit, but this time there is no Marquis
around to teach them manners so yeah...

Some guys up north, haven't heard much on them though.
Supposedly they managed to take out some new hero and think that
makes them tough. As much as I hate to say it, all the other gangs
trying to push their way in might protect us from trash like this.
Here's a [LINK] to the speculation page on them. Their big thing
seems to be ritualistic murder. Looks like nine possible victims so
far but no one's even sure how many capes they have.

Ugh, if you are going to talk about people, use their proper names.
Barrow is the central figure of Lost Garden, not 'Fairy Forest', that is
just a nickname. As for Frozen Lotus, is it possible that they are a
revival of Goetia's split of the Adepts? For those who don't know,
Goetia was a cape in the late 90's who tried to introduce ritual human
murder to the methodology of the Adepts. Epoch kicked him out, and
he started his own briefly led version over in Detroit, before the
group suddenly vanished. This set-up sounds like it is similar.

These guys worry me quite a bit...they seem very dangerous from
what I heard most of their victims were more than capable of
defending themselves. One of them even was a mercenary who
survived Moord Nag's takeover of Namibia and when you know how
bloody that was well that's nothing to sneer at. As for the story about
the mannequins being animated I do not see why it was discarded;
Parahuman powers are weird so the fact that the mannequins were
undamaged and found at the exact same place means nothing.
►Potemkin
Replied on April 21, 2011:
Yeah because a power would clean everything it does, tss... Now
Navi I thought that Goetia and his group got killed by An Elite Murder
Squad in detroit because one of the people Goetia used for one of his
ritual was working for them. But then it just be a rumour, thing is if it
is Goetia how come he only comes back now ?

You know that speedster that got killed well he was a real badass,
saw him fight once that guy was not only fast and could do things
with fire, but the guy was also a beast in H2H. I saw him fight some
group with a mover and a brute and he utterly destroyed them.
►LorasTheNerd
Replied on April 22, 2011:
Yeah well if those guys come to the Bay I do not see them getting
past the Empire, because I do not see them putting up with that kind
of shit and given their numbers and the strength of their capes I do
not see what these fuckers could do. And if the villains don't take
care of it well there is the protectorate as well as New Wave and the
Back up Buddies.

@ForgeGuy: Do you have a link to the info about the mercenary, I
hadn't heard that part?
@Potemkin: I'm pretty sure that is just a rumor, AFAIK, the Elite
have never had much of a presence in Detroit. And I don't know why
he wouldn't have come back until now, unless the rumors about
Epoch having a much greater time travel ability than he has displayed
are true, and he shot Goetia forward in time.
So, I just saw a news bulletin about the death of a security guy at a
mall. Link here. The victim is only twenty-three, and the cause of
death was blunt-force trauma rather than a knife wound, but there
are some chain-like marks that could be burns that you can see in
the second picture. Do you guys think this could be related? It would
be in the path for these guys to be heading to Brockton Bay.
