Was she not before?

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Oh, that should be easier to tell, then.

@whizzball1

She was close, but she wasn't quite there before. When she gets back she'll have a few more tricks up her sleeve.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

No worries. She does kind of seem to have some evil personality trying to take over her mind every now and then, and you revealing yourself might pull that back to the surface.

@whizzball1

That's what i figured. So I'm waiting until she has a stronger personality before I tell her. but before that even happens, I asked her to go train until she's strong enough to survive the stuff you guys get into.

And I can guess who it is. Does she know?

@whizzball1

Not yet. She knows of me as I am currently and as i looked in mobian form, but she has no clue that I'm the one who stopped her or of who I was. other then that, I don't want to say any more, sorry.

Are you allowed to say whom you've chosen?

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

There's nothing stopping us from going out and doing things, though.

@whizzball1

Yes, though some Limiters choose to help reform the villain from a distance. You've already met the villain I've chosen to help though.

What if something along our timeline is disturbed and they are never born?

@Etcetera

That's the interesting thing. The way time works is odd, so sometimes it acts linear, and sometimes it doesn't. But in the moments where that does happen, the other members of the group investigate the cause and then, if it was caused by an outside force, fix it. there have been cases though where someone is erased and they aren't put back due to it being more beneficial for that timeline as a whole. In fact, most of a Limiter's work revolves around getting rid of villains that didn't exist in the first place.

Who is your employer?

@Etcetera

A group of people that sit in the far future of existence, in fact several of them sit in alternate futures of existence. They all have abilities related to time and the manipulation of it, but they generally don't meet us in person since leaving their respective timelines could cause problems. The only two I've met in person are Jessica and Tio, and it was only because I was warped to them.

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

Have you done that yet?

@whizzball1

I have, and continue to do so. Most Limiters choose someone who was originally a kind person. In most cases the Limiter and the villain become best of friends, though it doesn't always work.

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

Same.

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

Messing with time is a dangerous thing.

@Etcetera

That's something that's drilled in a Limiter's head before and during their first cycle. It's also why Limiters aren't allowed to visit dimensions that they completed assignments in, or have any existence aware technology on them beyond an implant that we use to contact our employer's.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

That's true. I remember going out in Waternaux all the time.

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

That's an interesting job. I doubt it gets boring.

@whizzball1

It doesn't get boring, but it does get repetitive. Thankfully Limiters only go through 3-4 cycles minimum. And at the end of their final cycle, Limiters are allowed to choose a villain they had to clean up and see if they can help them reform.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

Wait, you kill them before they do anything wrong?

@Etcetera

Not at all. Mainly we try to impact their lives in ways that helps them from becoming villains in the first place, so in a sense we play a more non-traditional hero role. If that works, then we have successfully completed an assignment. If not then we play out the more traditional hero role and defeat them before things get out of hand. If possible, we even try to get rid of their source of power.
