HEROFACE UPDATE: SEPTEMBER

MONTH OF AUGUST FORGOTTEN, ENORMOUS COLLATERAL DAMAGE The populace of the Earth are finding it nigh impossible to remember the events of August 2019; most clearly remembered memories involve daily routines and general everyday actions. Specific memories seem shrouded in shadows and fog. For some it as if the month never happened. Some memories even seem to be conflicted; people disagree on their shared pasts, disputing such things as childhood memories and names of school friends. Many Parahumans remain unaccounted for. So called “supervillains” worldwide have denied responsibility for the so called Crisis that has rendered August non-existent. The Deterrents have been unable to comment, and GREGOR-1 is once again missing. In its place, the huge form of the Chronotoddler - one of the only beings able to comment on a time-editing event like the so-called Crisis - slumbers, seemingly exhausted. “Whatever happened,” Lancaster Wilder, head of UMBRA commented, “it sure tuckered the...

HEROFACE UPDATE SPECIAL; JULY

JULY 14th 2019 CHRONOTODDLER RETURNS, SEEN OVER ENGLAND "Suddenly, I'm getting static-filled shouting over the radio, and I can't tell why, upa head is just cloudbank. And suddenly I'm screaming, pulling the plane into a steep ascent -what was it, 60 degrees? 70? All to avoid crashing into this hundred foot floating space baby. I'm swearing like a sailor and there he is, just staring up at me with his calm little stupid baby face. <laughs>. Not gonna forget that in a long time." Captain Emily Rourke, Commercial Pilot "I'm tending the sheep one minute, under this Amber sky, and suddenly bam. Giant Baby.  Up over the apple trees. He stares at me, I stare at him. The sheep, they're getting panicky, and then bam. He's gone again. And I just go back to checking their feet…" Basil Thomas, Farmer, Staffordshire "I mean, I know my Deterrents history. This baby only appears when something big is about to happen. But.. What was ...

HEROFACE UPDATE; JUNE

UNKNOWN PROTOCOL FOUND HIDDEN IN OVER THREE HUNDRED BRANDS OF COMPUTERIZED PRODUCTS Coding similar in construct to the same computer virus that caused a global panic in 1994 has been found in three-hundred brands of electrical products, directly written into hardware components. The code appears to be completely isolated, unlinked to any executable functions. None of the companies contacted for a reply admitted to willingly putting the code into their products, and could not explain its presence, calling it “clearly benign”. Since the discovery, private parties have checked their own home hardware and products for examples of this code. A list maintained online lists over two million store-bought products containing the foreign protocol, the earliest produced item dating back to 1991. With the code having no connection to any software components, consumers have been asked not to panic; the protocol has no effect to any functions of an electronic device. CONTENTS OF PRESIDENT KE...

HEROFACE UPDATE; MAY

PRIME MINISTER MUNNE PUBLISHES DETAILS OF EVERY REGISTERED PARAHUMAN IN UK In an attempt to dissuade further riotting, the Government has published a public list of all registered Parahumans, their occupations, and criminal history. Despite many companies stating that this will not affect employment, four thousand Parahuman firings occurred within the month, and over thirty Parahuman suicides. Headmaster Otkid has called the list “absurd, childish, and insultingly dangerous.” ECO-TERRORIST DRYAS DESTROYS DRILLING OPERATION IN DENMARK The mysterious green anarchist Dryas has claimed responsibility for the arson and destruction of a corporate oil drilling operation off the coast of Denmark. In a blog, the unknown terrorist claims full responsibility for “cutting the parasitical lifeline you monsters use to drain our planet dry”. This is the 17th eco-crime they have claimed responsibility for. Four were killed in the arson. Ether has confirmed they are actively looking for Drya...

HEROFACE UPDATE; APRIL

PRESIDENT KEELE SUCCEEDS IN ABOLISHING SENATE; RIOTS BREAK OUT Backed by Congress, President Keele has successfully ended the power inherent in the Senators. A number of key Senators have agreed with Keele’s opinion that three sources of legislative power confuses a political message, while many more have shown anger that America’s major principles have been undermined. Riots have subsequently broken out in Washington DC, Manhattan and Los Angeles. Four police officers have died heroically trying to control the violence; numbers of rioter casualties are unpublished. Tear gas was deployed in DC and Manhattan, while Los Angeles deployed military assistance. Deterrent Tapeworm Jones was arrested in Manhattan; witnesses claim he was attempting to protect a group of protesters from being trampelled, though the official police report claims he attacked a police officer, unprovoked. HUMANITY LEAGUE RIOTS CONTINUE; THE ALPHA APPEARS AT LONDON Prime Minister Munne continues to broker the...

HEROFACE UPDATE, MARCH

PURITY FIRST WINS UK ELECTION, RIOTS IN MANCHESTER, BIRMINGHAM By a small margin, Purity First win the snap election in the UK, putting so called “centrist” leader Penelope Munn in the position of Prime Minister. Munn's pro-austerity platform is carefully worded to appeal to a larger audience, despite the party's anti-Minority, anti-Parahuman portfolio. Supposedly “angered by the results”, Parahuman-headed left-wing riots occur in Birmingham and Manchester. Despite being asked by the police not to intervene, Purity First supporters join both riots. Members of The Collective are seen clashing with the police in Birmingham. Across both incidents, over two hundred injuries are reported, and six deaths. Munn uses this opportunity to grant more power to the police to “prevent Parahuman crime”. An investigation into evidence that the Manchester riot was started, and planned by Purity First politicians, is suddenly dropped. DER OHLE ARRESTED IN MACEDONIA, HELD BY ETHER, TRANSF...

HEROFACE UPDATE, FEBRUARY

SENATE DENIES BUILDING OF MEXICAN WALL President Keele’s controversial plan to build a heavily guarded and patrolled battlement on the USA/Mexico physical border has been denied by both the US Senate & Congress. Keele’s arguments claim the wall is to keep out migrants and Parahumans, and is heavily endorsedby Republican supporters across all demographics. Protests have occurred country-wide, and plans for counter procedures to be put through Congress have begun to mobilize. The president has smilingly commented “This makes little difference; my plan is part of the American Dream, and it cannot be laid to rest.” CHRONOTODDLER VANISHES The Deterrents’ resident omnipotent observer has seemingly vanished from their usual position outside the GREGOR-1 satellite. The Lady has commented that “The situation is unusual, but not a cause for alarm or panic”. PARLIAMENT CALLS FOR EMERGENCY ELECTION Following difficulties during negotiations in Brussels, an overwhelming lack of confiden...
