That just shows how much like Batman he really is. Even by simply leaning back against a wall, most people don't notice him until it's too late.

At least with Fusionette growing... we don't get to do the double interact with her. Young she is in missions, older.. again in missions. You can never go stand next to her younger and older selves out in the open.
Or.. am I mistaken?
It would be great if they use the phasing technology to handle this.
Either by doing the Faultline arc or (perhaps preferably) after a certain level, young Penny would be phased out and we'd only have current Penny.
Of course, if we Exemp'd to play the Faultline arc with a lower-level player, we'd be in their world and see Young Penny!

I don't know... I think that could be a cool way to handle it, if they can.

If my understanding of the phasing tech is correct, it would actually be fairly easy to make her phase out if the player was over a certain level. This would be ideal except that the whole level-as-timeline idea seems to have been mostly scrapped at this point.

I *think* that the "experiencing the world of XYZ" only affects the combat phase areas, however, and not the contact phasing. I could be wrong on that.

If you can see Manticore, he can see you.
If you can't see Manticore, you may have only seconds left to live.

Well, we don't know for sure yet who Primal Penny's mother is - although as she and Praetorian Penny both have huge psychic potential, the chances that Primal Vanessa is Primal Penny's mother are pretty good.

I have to admit I wondered if it was Vanessa or the Clockwork King that Penny has received her training from.

My wild theory is that Praetorian Penny is Primal Penny's mentor.. OR even wilder theory given one of Praetorian Vanessa's more annoying powers. That Primal Penny is nothing more than a mirror or fragment of Praetorian Penny that traveled to Primal Earth via the Psychic plane.

That would explain why many of Primal Penny's powers look like they just stepped out of the MoM trial.

Actually I have it on good authority that Faultline and Fusionette used to call Penny "Mouse" in high school, because of her size and her amazingly high-pitched voice. But I guess they don't think that makes a good hero name.

Quick question: Does this help explain the original omission of Manticore from the first release of the artwork? Remember he got airbrushed back in when the player base picked up on it...

might also explain the broken bow and arrow too.

What about BAB's glove then?

Given SSA#2, I think the obvious is the CK.
