The characters have a number of problems to overcome, the completion of which will determine the final outcome. The current version proceeds as follows: |
| - | * Core is having trouble controlling their new powers. They start the Vignette in the centre of a ring of destruction, magma beginning to bubble up at their feet. | + | * Core is having trouble controlling their new powers. They start the Vignette in the centre of a ring of destruction, magma beginning to bubble up at their feet. With so little time to spare, Mega flies them into space to meet the Artefact, relying on their out-of-control powers to destroy it. Core dies in the process. |
| + | * When Mega’s sibling was struck by the gamma radiation, they were also possessed by the alien will of the artefact. They try to prevent the other heroes from taking action, and succeed in destroying swathes of the city. Ultimately, they die when their connection to the Artefact is severed. | ||
| + | * Chronologist is required to use their powers at an extreme level in order to warp Mega and Core to the Artefact in time. Although successful, their powers backlash onto themself, causing them to age rapidly. They spend a subjective lifetime doing nothing but helping to avert this catastrophe. | ||
| + | * Forcemaster works with Remix and Overcharger to support the other heroes and try to defend the city. Although they try sincerely, they cannot save everyone. Many civilians die, though ultimately the Earth as a whole is saved. | ||
| - | * When Mega’s sibling was struck by the gamma radiation, they were also possessed by the alien will of the artefact. They are now actively trying to prevent the other heroes from taking action. Mega is distraught at the fate of their sibling. | ||
| - | |||
| - | * The earth has an orbital defence system designed to prevent asteroid impacts. This may be helpful, but the gamma ray emissions from the artefact are interfering with its control systems. | ||
| - | |||
| - | * Even if the artefact is stopped, the process is likely to cause a large amount of collateral damage. Find a way to protect the civilians from it and from Emissary. | ||
| - | |||
| - | * Slow the object down: whatever the plan is, slowing the object down is likely to help a lot. | ||
| - | |||
| - | * And of course prevent, contain, or otherwise mitigate the effects of the impact. | ||
