Hello, fellow MA mavens. After years of posting joke threads containing "Feedback on the Thanksgiving Event," I decided to make my own using the MA tools, just in time for Thanksgiving itself.

Therefore, I give you arc #347683, "The Wentworth's Thanksgiving Day Parade." The Wentworth's parade has been a tradition in Paragon City for decades, but this year, it's in danger! Rescue some unusual characters, battle some peculiar enemies, and get home in time for Thanksgiving dinner! This is a comedy arc, but it's a bit more canon-related and, I hope, internally consistent than most.

This is intended to be a solo-friendly arc, with no enemies ranking above boss level and no mechanical or power "tricks" to make things more complex or challenging. There are custom enemies in the second mission, but you can avoid a lot of them, and while they aren't pushovers, they aren't impossibly difficult, either. The arc is also short, only two missions.

This arc is not recommended for people who don't think marching bands, pilgrims, subtle humor, Nemesis, helium, or large flightless birds can be funny. Do not take internally. Author carries no cash.

P.S. Yes, I'm aware that Canadian Thanksgiving has been over for a month already. I wanted to include a joke about that in the arc, but I couldn't work it in. Let me know if you see a good place for it . . .

Excellent Arc. I particularly liked the boss costume. LOL It never ceases to amaze me the creativity of some people with the costume designer.

Nice to see someone else who doesn't feel obligated to fill missions with AVs too. My 29 Dominator soloed the arc at +2 with no problems unless I let myself get outnumbered badly or lost control which is just as it should be.

You can't please everyone, so lets concentrate on me.
