Zephyr stood in amazement at just how fickle the crowd was. Jimmy's words cut into his ego, as even he noticed that his speech had fallen on deaf ears once the ice princess and the robot girl started having a back and forth. How could the streaming king lose the audience to these losers? Well that was something he was going to find out and take back control.

"Carmine Corp doesn't produce Talents. Just soldiers pretending to be heroes." Armada scoffed as he hopped down from the table, his body floating to the ground, a purplish stream of electricity surging around him as he descended. 'I'll be back."

Armada's eyes were locked on ZEPHYR and Lady, his mind racing with many things he could say, thoughts of finding embarrassing footage of Lady to show the world or maybe showing just how incompetent Carmine Corp really were. He could commence a brutal, slanderous take down of either through one of his many V-tuber followers, faceless and anonymous but, that would ruin his fun. No, Armada needed to be the face that confronts them or he could turn this whole thing into a show of peace, propping himself up while passively pissing off the ice princess in the process.

"My my. If it isn't the effervescent Ladyice."

Armada took to a slow stride, his devious smile across his face. He bowed to the woman, giving a sign of respect that the other two surely did not have for the other. The hero lifted his hand to a monitor situated near Ladyice, the monitor flickering only for a moment before the image became a video of a recent modeling event that Lady had taken part of. "Truly a thing of beauty."

And then he turned his attention to Zephyr but, he had only a smile for her. She was a no name. A lower class hero with nothing to show for it within Armada's eyes. With a wink and a nod, he positioned himself between the two. See Armada needed to be the center of attention. He craved it. Being a hero was his dream. This was his time. He wouldn't let two fake heroes take that spotlight from him. A shiver ran down his spine from Ladyice's cold manipulation in the air, but this had to be done.

"Now now girls, are we really here to fight each-other?" He giggled before continuing, "You both know do know theatrics like this only stands to generate hype, but nothing long standing? ZEPHYR here might not care due to being a Carmine talent but, you Lady? Can you afford to fight here? Don't you ever want to reach my level of fame?"
Feel free to continue conversing with the boi, Crowvette. Will otherwise update for the others once Psykers and maybe Taka post.


Apologies. Tore my back muscles up during training and been decommissioned pretty much the whole week. Like a the day after I messaged you. lol. I shall get something up even if it's small. Got father's day stuff tomorrow but, I shall look over posts and present something for Armada.


The Play/Tech Expo, a safe haven for nerds, a beacon for geeks everywhere, and Armada knew exactly how to draw the crowd. Several monitors were mounted around the booth, some showing off gameplay from Armada's latest stream while other giving showcases to the newest PC and accessories. Kids walking with their parents would stop to line up to watch their favorite streamer, eyes widening with excitement, whilst adult nerds stood in awe to the prowess displayed. Armada kept his eye on the kids, a smile sinking deep on his face, ecstatic to see that he was making am impact. Suddenly the best idea crawled it way into his cranium, forcing the streamer extraordinaire grab the nearest chair and hoist himself up on the nearest table at this booth.

"Come on, come all." Armada's voice boomed from the speakers strategically stationed around his both, "Am I happy to see you all, supporting a legend such as myself. I know see the gameplay and wonder why a legend such as I would dare grace you with his presence?"

The people watched intently to his every word. No matter how overconfident or cocky he spoke, it was like he had them entranced, his charisma oozing out, ensnaring them all like honey.

"See in reality, I wouldn't be here without all of you. You, my loyal Admirals, inspire everyday to go and do my best. Your hopes. Your dreams. All in my hands. I will always your best interest. And for those that aren't part of The Fleet, we welcome you with open arms. Come. Subscribe and join The Fleet. May you dream sail on peaceful seas. And please check out the new Scrapple 1080x graphic card at our booth, and use my tag ARMADA#1 for a discount."

The crowd had only grown larger as the technological hero spoke, for they followed him with little fealty. Everything he said was simple, so simple that any streamer could follow him and yet none could match his popularity. Did Armada believe anything he said? To be honest, it didn't matter for his loyal fans only cared that he spoke to them. For now, that adulation was all he needed to keep his place in the upper echelons of the hero food chain. His eyes trailed the showroom floor until it would meet one of the other heroes known as Ladyice, a devious smirk crossing his face. Suddenly a voice diverted his attention.

"Hey, Nerd."

"If ain't Casanova in the flesh."

The most genuine smile of the day was given to the one and only Jimmy Casanova, Armada's best friend.
I'll have a post up tomorrow night or Saturday
@Taka
Right, so is his name Justin or Armada?

Anyways, there's no truly scientific method of getting to the giga-techno-wizardry that a Talent can accomplish. Rather than collaborating with scientists and engineers to create gear, he'd have actually be collaborating with artists and people from marketing to design props that look like sci-fi gadgets. After that, they'd basically be working overtime to make sure that the public believes those props to be worthwhile, before they become functional as actual gadgets.

Also.

There are no terrorists. Do not use any word that contains 'terror', because those words do not exist in the dictionary.

In a similar vein, what is an Esports World Champion, if there is only the City? Cybernetics, like I explained for Psykers, also don't actually exist at a functional level yet, unless they are associated with an existing Talent.

Justin is real name but Armada would be the public facing identity.

I can change the NPC to the marketing Lead Designer or something.

Well not terrorists then but still a group of baddies if that's fine? Id assume supervillains would be a prevalent thing if we got heroes.

As long as people compete, world champion will be the title even if its not encompassing the world.

So I guess cybernetics would just be associated with him then? In the "public believes I have powers so I have powers" kind of way.

David S. Rhodes - Founder of TEAM Respawn and target of many rumors that he is the supervillain The UNKNOWN King, leader of UNKNOWN.

Dr. Rohan Caine - Head Engineer and Scientist that helps Armada create his gear.

Jimmy Casanova - A Supermodel Hero and Justin's best friend.
