comment
Lord Doom is a Worm fanfiction posted on SpaceBattles.com, here, and completed in March 2020.Even though the bullying didn't escalate to the locker incident, Taylor Hebert still triggered with powers. Instead of controlling bugs, she's a Tinker who can make tiny drones. Lots of tiny drones. But before she can make enough to be a serious hero, she'll need some starting capital, and that's much easier to do as a villain...

Look Behind You
 Lord Doom (Fanfic) / int_112f8ee1
comment
Look Behind You: Lord Doom suggests that Armsmaster look behind him, not because he actually needs Armsmaster distracted, but just for the entertainment value of seeing Armsmaster's reaction to a second instance of Lord Doom stealing his motorcycle and escaping with a bag of loot.

comment
Totem Pole Trench: Lord Doom starts out as just half a dozen drones and a cloak, becoming more sophisticated as Taylor builds up her swarm. It's actually the source of most of "his" apparent powers; everyone (except Tattletale) thinks he has an invisible intangible Breaker state that can defeat Clockblocker's touch-based freezingnote (when Clockblocker freezes the cloak, the drones underneath it are unaffected) and registers as non-living to Vista's spatial power.

Narrative Profanity Filter: When Lord Doom steals Armsmaster's tinkertech motorcycle, promptly crashes it, and then flies away into the sky while laughing, "Armsmaster said some things that were probably not PR approved." Unfortunately for Armsmaster, he was caught on camera and becomes a PHO meme. When all the gangs are invited to Somer's Rock to discuss the ongoing gang war, "For the record, we did invite the ABB. Bakuda told us no, but in less polite terms."

Lured into a Trap: When war breaks out between the Empire 88 and the ABB, the Empire steadily pushes the ABB back, until suddenly the ABB ambushes them with an assortment of Bakuda's exotic bombs, slaughtering many of the Empire capes and forcing a retreat.

comment
Blatant Lies: Tattletale claims that she knows Lord Doom is interested in teaming up due to lack of resources because she can read minds. For the record, Lord Doom is a cluster of microdrones inside of a cloak, so Taylor immediately knows that Tattletale is lying, and fires back with "LORD DOOM FINDS IT UNLIKELY YOU ARE READING LORD DOOM'S MIND. BUT YES."

comment
Zerg Rush: Taylor's power doesn't do large powerful drones; she's tried, it just doesn't work. Instead, it works with small drones in large numbers. For example, a laser drone is only powerful enough to blind a human. But when there are hundreds of them, that's a different story. Forty taser drones together are able to kill Hookwolf, blasting him en masse and repeatedly until he stops moving and then a few more times for good measure.

 Lord Doom (Fanfic) / int_44606d14
comment
Becoming the Mask: Lord Doom was supposed to be a temporary identity to quickly steal enough funds to get Taylor started, but she finds that the Large Ham personality is too much fun to drop it entirely, and continues to make use of his persona when she has dirtier jobs to do. She also notices that her thinking has been influenced in the long term by acting that way.

comment
Swiss-Army Superpower: Taylor's drones can carry all sorts of payloads. Lasers, tasers, armour, force fields, lifting, glowing, cameras, plus the factory drones that take raw materials and assemble more drones. Each one is individually weak and single-purpose, but in large numbers they're very powerful; Myriad is considered to be an "Alexandria package", essentially a Flying Brick with enhanced senses, due to the swarms of drones that protect her, carry her, and do her bidding. She can even make cruise missiles.

Betrayal Insurance: Taylor is quite concerned about what Tattletale may have been able to figure out about her, but consoles herself that "if Tattletale's power was good enough to know Taylor was Myriad then her power was also good enough to know Taylor had very high resolution images of her masked face from a dozen different angles."

No-Sell: Since Lord Doom is just a bunch of tiny drones hiding under a cloak, "he" can flat out ignore all sorts of attacks. For example, bullets will usually miss the drones, or will only take out one or two of the swarm, not enough to matter. Clockblocker's time-freezing only freezes the cloak, much to the PRT's bafflement.

These Hands Have Killed: Just before she passes out from a bullet wound, Taylor orders her drones to disable her attacker. Unfortunately, although the drones do understand the concept of stopping when the threat is gone, they interpret even twitching as a sign that the target is still active. Everyone agrees it was self defence, but she's still upset with herself.

Self-Destruct Mechanism
 Lord Doom (Fanfic) / int_c69ae9b2
comment
Self-Destruct Mechanism: Taylor routinely triggers the self destruct on any instances of Lord Doom that are captured or otherwise outlive their usefulness, incinerating everything. It prevents anyone from discovering her drones, and contributes to Lord Doom's mystique of apparent invulnerability, since he keeps coming back regardless.

Faking the Dead: Taylor arranges for one of the Lord Doom instances to be caught in a Bakuda time dilation grenade, and self-destructs all the others at the same instant, giving heroes and villains alike the impression that Lord Doom is gone for good. After all, Myriad is well established at that point, and she has punished the Empire for attacking her civilian identity, so it's time for Lord Doom to retire. Unless she really needs him back.
