Taylor Varga is a crossover between Worm and the anime Luna Varga, written by mp3.1415player.The author has also written Worm / Doom crossover Taylor is DOOMed, Worm / Bolo crossover For the Honor of the Regiment and Mass Effect fanfic Incompatible System.Instead of triggering with the expected Skitter powers, when Taylor is left, unfound, in her locker for hours. Feeling herself go mad, she begged and pleaded for someone, anyone to help her. Reaching far farther than she should have been able to, something answered her. Asking her if she wanted power, and why, she answered that she wanted to be a hero.The Varga responded by making her the new Brain. Now, she makes the decisions for a variable-sized lizard-demon that would make Godzilla weep with envy. Being Taylor is pretty nice...everyone else is in for quite an experience.Can be read at Sufficient Velocity, Archive of Our Own, SpaceBattles and Fanfiction.net. Be warned: at 1.8 Million words, Taylor Varga is, by a good margin, the longest story on Sufficient Velocity (and roughly 120,000 words longer than ''Worm'' itself).Beware, Worm Spoilers below! | |

Can't Arrest You, Still Need You: After her bullying comes to light, Sophia isn't arrested but put on indefinite desk duty, house arrest, and surveillance, due to some higher-up PRT members thinking she'd still be useful. This comes back to bite them when a perfect storm of factors culminate in her escape. | |

Instant Expert: On top of everything else she gets from the Varga, she also gets access to the memories of the previous Brain of the Varga, Princess Luna, including all her fighting skill. This ends up confusing the PRT, who assume she's not a recent trigger as a result of her skills. | |

Heroic BSoD: Literally everyone has one (or several) whenever they get hints of just how big Sauriel and her ilk can get. When she first lays eyes on a picture of Umihebi, Director Piggot has such a big one she suffers a heart attack. Tattletale suffers a few Fainting fits when she hears exactly where Taylor and Varga's upper limits are. | |

Right Behind Me | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_170128e9 | comment |
Right Behind Me: Between her speed, strength, and Perception Filter powers, doing this comes very easily to Taylor, and she has done so on numerous occasions. Of notable instance is when Director Piggot, Armsmaster, Dragon and some PRT troopers go to where the Family were supposed to drop off an accosted Coil, only for the gigantic Umihebi to appear right behind them without any indication she was coming. | |

Underestimating Badassery | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_1a8dc238 | comment |
Taylor cites this as a key reason why she needs to keep her identity secret; if anyone in authority found out that the most powerful Parahuman around was "just" a teenage girl, they'd instantly get the idea that they could somehow get control of her, heedless of how much power she has. And if they push her that far, the consequences will not be pretty for anyone. | |

Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_1ec7ea4a | comment |
Watch Out for That Tree!: Saurial's first flight with a water propulsion system leads to her crashing into a few things, like a bridge and a bank. She has to go back and fill in the Impact Silhouettes she leaves behind. Vicky gets so lost in thought about the connection between Saurial and Taylor that she flies right into an office window. Apparently even Legend has fallen to this trope during his younger years. | |

Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_1f250372 | comment |
I Need a Freaking Drink: Often imbibed by characters who find themselves unable to handle the Family's antics. When pictures of The Family's Alien Geometries-imbued gift to Danny made it to PHO, Winged One/The Simurgh posted that she wished she drank, and stated she might start. After his chastisement by Kaiju, Lung is found in the bar that Erwin frequents, watching the city get stranger by the day. | |

No-Holds-Barred Beatdown | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_25524784 | comment |
She gets it from her dad, apparently, Danny Hebert is known in political circles to be fierce when provoked. And if Antonio's intel to Legend is to be believed he saved Annette from Lustrum's (ie one of the most dangerous parahumans in the world) clutches by basically beating the shit out of her, which resulted in her currently spending the rest of her life in The Birdcage. If she ever escapes, the likely outcome will involve Lustrum being burned alive. | |

Readings Are Off the Scale | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_2b3bd260 | comment |
Readings Are Off the Scale: Before Talyor the highest rating for a power was 10. The highest known Brute rating was Behemoth at that 10. After seeing Kaiju personally Legend rates that form at Brute 12+ and even then says it's likely underselling things. It almost gets to the point where the Fandom's joke 'Yes' rating gets implemented for real. | |

Dirty Business: The whole mess regarding getting rid of The Merchants. Taylor and Co don't want to remove them from the equation due to the creation of an inevitable power vacuum, but Skidmark forces their hand. And then there's having to euthanize Squealer's old body and leaving it for the PRT to find as part of faking her death to help with her new identity. | |

Combo Platter Powers: Varga's powerset really let Taylor hit the jackpot: Super-Strength, Super-Senses, Nigh-Invulnerability, Perception Filter, Spontaneous Weapon Creation & Instant Armor and Voluntary Shapeshifting, and that's just for starters. It's discussed later by the Protectorate staff, especially regarding her matter-generation power and how much she can leverage out of it, with it alone giving her several power ratings in other categories. Assault thinks she's Gotta Catch 'Em All. | |

Hidden Depths: Danny mentions that his family is Corsican/French (his middle name is Francisci) and Annette was Sicilian. Some other conversations imply other connections to "the old country". Armsmaster isn't totally unaware of popular culture; he's a fan of The Terminator. Also, despite his reputation for efficiency, Legend mentions a few of his motorcycle prototypes that had more chrome and lighting than was strictly "efficient". | |

Terror Hero: Despite her chirpy personality as Sauriel and her jokey personality as Raptaur, every gangster that Taylor comes across in a dark alley finds her absolutely pants-wettingly terrifying.

The World Is Not Ready: Considering the stigma of biotinkers and their creations, Amy is very reluctant to openly explore her biokinesis and the creations she could make, except in privacy with Taylor and Lisa. She finally starts to explore by giving one-use healing symbiotes to the PRT and the hospital, under the guise of Ianthe and Family biosculpting. | |

Having a Chicken Walker Mini-Mecha on hand for dock work and construction is one thing, equipping it with plasma lances and EDM cutters for metalwork is another, but how do you justify equipping it with a stealth and sound suppression system? Well, construction is noisy. | |

Gentle Giant | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_36c64123 | comment |
Gentle Giant: Taylor, in all her Varga forms. Bigger than a man at minimum, terrifying no matter which way you look at her and easily capable of biting your everything off, but prefers to live and let live and judge people on their own merits rather than the labels of hero or villain. Though don't even think about hurting her dad or anyone she cares about, or she becomes a LOT less gentle. | |

Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_3aec9e5e | comment |
Properly Paranoid: While Sophia's on the run, it's almost a Running Gag that she thinks that the truck behind her is tailing her, and has been since Brockton Bay. No matter what she tries, she finds it again, even if swaps to another stolen car or she takes a side road and the truck drives straight past her only for another similar truck to do the same further down the road, with this still happening thousands of miles away from Brockton Bay. The narration early on makes this seem like she's just imagining things, but it turns out she's right to worry. They all work for Antonio, tracking her and doing it like a relay race, and he's doing it deliberately just to fuck with her so she makes a mistake and ends up either in PRT custody or dead. | |

No Kill like Overkill: How the Slaughterhouse 9 are disposed of: blown up by a homemade landmine with accelerants (although only a landmine in the loosest sense; it's several tons of explosives buried under a road and jury rigged to a pressure trigger in Jake's chair), Mannequin who survives the blast barraged by several 50. cal anti-materiel rounds, and buried under an avalanche. Note that Crawler, unable to comfortably fit in their chosen transportation, had gone off on his own beforehand and is thus still at large. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle: For her debut, Raptaur defends the docks from Hookwolf. The E88 cape never stands a chance. On one side, around 100 Merchants (no capes). On the other, Raptaur, Ianthe and Metis, with the Protectorate, PRT and BBPD as backup. It almost doesn't seem fair to the stoners. | |

Took a Level in Kindness | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_3dcc914f | comment |
Took a Level in Kindness: Thanks to having an experienced, smart and wise demon in her head, Taylor deals with the perils of Cape life much better than in canon. Varga is magnitudes more powerful than Skitter was, so Taylor doesn't have to resort to Combat Pragmatist solutions as much as she did in canon to achieve desirable outcomes. This has knock-on effects on: Panacea: A chance encounter with her leads to Amy figuring out Taylor's secret, which leads to friendship and making a new circle of friends who aren't Victoria (and thus stops fixating on her and quickly seeing on her own what would have happened in canon had she not done so), a safe and private place where she can experiment and get creative with a power that is considered taboo (averting that particular psychological pressure cooker), reducing her hours at the hospital (so she isn't so overworked and depressed) and calling Carol out on her shit parenting (which in combination with a "Reason You Suck" Speech from Sarah results in Carol turning over a new leaf and giving Amy a much more settled home life. So while she's still as sarcastic and acerbic as ever, she's a lot more good natured about it. Tattletale: Her pathological need to be the smartest person in the room is dialed down, so while still quite smug she's less of a Troll about it. Amy's upgrades also let her powers circumvent some of the restrictions that Scion has placed, so she's generally a lot more helpful and happier. Thanks to Danny giving her and the other Undersiders an avenue to go straight, she now has a job she loves and is less one track minded about Coil. She's also loving the new powerset she gets in the Metis construct. Grue: Like Tattletale, now has an honest job he enjoys and is using that as leverage to get custody of Aisha. Bitch: Her murder conviction is looking increasingly like a Miscarriage Of Justice, which Carol is quite confident she can get overturned and clear her name. In addition, she gets to look after and train all the DWU's dogs, and everyone for the most part leaves her alone, which she appreciates. Knowing where she stands in the pack helps too. Über and Leet: Their association with The Family, and through them Armsmaster and Dragon, is giving them avenues to potentially joining the heroes. Leet is finally getting the respect he deserves and craves, and is entering into partnership with Dragon to have his Tinkertech mass produced. Armsmaster: Saurial's general engineering ability appeals to his Efficiency sensibilities, and meeting the above, whose work he also begins to appreciate, helps with his bad people skills and makes him less of a Glory Hound and much more open to mass collaboration. People also suspect he's beginning to catch on to Dragon's feelings for him. Squealer: Out from under The Merchants and completely off the drugs for the first time in years, she gets a new identity (Linda 'Vectura' Morgan) and body (complete with Changer powers), also gets an honest job with the DWU, and can actually obtain the parts and tools she needs to start living up to her potential as a Tinker. She still Swears Like A Sailor, but that's just habit. | |

Hidden in Plain Sight | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_41a3e267 | comment |
Hidden in Plain Sight: The whole idea to separate Squealer/Sherrel identity from her new one as Linda, DWU employee. By Ianthe making her a new body, giving it Changer/Brute powers, making it so that her old body is disposed of through Merchant activity, bringing her in for PRT power testing, and telling them upfront that she bought a new identity to hide her from a terrible past, no-one would think to look too closely at an apparently fake identity, and even if they looked for some reason, the unwritten rules would protect her. And besides the odd lie of omission (mostly identities), the story given to the PRT is completely true. | |

Did We Just Have Tea with Cthulhu?: The reaction of just about everyone in Brockton Bay when they watch the 85-foot monstrosity that is Kaiju clear away the tanker blocking the bay. Lisa has this reaction when she finds out that a poster on PHO that she has been chatting with, Winged One, is actually the Simurgh asking for help. She comes to the conclusion that the outreach is genuine, and they already know that Eidolon is linked to the Endbringers, but not how it all fits together yet. Again once Taylor cracks dimensional travel, and Lisa and Amy get to meet their Shards who seem genuinely happy to finally meet them. | |

I Never Said It Was Poison: After finding out about the bullying that Taylor had been forced to endure, Danny scheduled a meeting with Principal Blackwell about the issue. Upon arriving for the meeting, he saw that the parents of Emma Barnes, Sophia Hess, and Madison Clements were there as well. When he asked why they were there, Blackwell said that she had figured it would be prudent to have all relevant parties there. Danny quickly pointed out that he had never mentioned Emma, Sophia, or Madison, meaning Blackwell had only helped support his side of the story. | |

They do have warning signs though. Said sign is now the fic's logo on Fanfiction. | |

Achievements in Ignorance: Taylor manages to accidentally destroy Saint's lab without harming him or his allies, alert Dragon to their location without being identified on satellite, and time this whole event with a small blind spot in PRT satellite network. All this while doing some power testing in her full Varga form and completely ignorant of the good she did. In managing to develop a second body for the Varga to pilot thanks to Shapeshifting and dimensional shenanigans, Taylor discovers how to teleport and create miniature bodies in the process. | |

Size and Shapeshifting: Taylor can take a good amount of forms that more or less fit to the idea of lizard and go from her normal height to a few hundred feet tall Godzilla look-alike. | |

Instant Sedation | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_5bdf025f | comment |
Instant Sedation: How Kaiju defuses the situation with Eidolon. After he tries to shoot her In the Back to provoke her into a fight, she transmutes all the air around him into pure Nitrogen. He's out cold in less than 4 seconds. | |

Pragmatic Villainy | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_5ca80293 | comment |
Pragmatic Villainy: Most of the Cape criminal gangs in Brockton Bay decide to keep their heads down or plan to move operations elsewhere after The Family turn up. For the conventional criminals, Antonio; Annette's Uncle, he's in charge of the local Mafia, makes most of his money through legitimate business, and thinks overturning the Apple Cart to be tremendously unwise. However, he's not above intimidation and violence against the idiotic (like the Russian Mafiya supplying The Merchants with Rocket Launchers) or against personal slights (while he knows Danny won't like it, he knows what happened at Winslow and who was responsible, and is quite prepared to cack Shadow Stalker if she dares show her face again.) | |

Pocket Dimension, including where they store Varga's excess mass when they aren't using it. Me's a Crowd is one way they can use said excess. Teleporters and Transporters by summoning a copy a distance away and dispelling the original, they can create a facsimile of this. | |

Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_5db59a03 | comment |
Brown Note: Varga's physiology often does this to parahuman powers, leaving their analysing users with nothing more than severe migraines. Anyone witnessing Alien Geometries, be they Taylor's non-Euclidean constructs, or any of Vista's Family-inspired artwork. Hell, just looking at the math equations for said geometries give onlookers a headache. Some of the infinitely variable forms that Taylor and Varga try out tend to have a similar affect as well. Particularly on Lisa. | |

Heel–Face Turn | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_617f0563 | comment |
Heel–Face Turn: After an unfortunate encounter with Lung and being rescued by Raptaur and Kaiju, the Undersiders decide to ditch their boss and work for the Dockworkers Union instead. Über and Leet eventually decide to go legit by cooperating with the Family and Dragon with patenting and developing Tinkertech. It helps that most of their "villainous" activities were a result of not letting the law get in the way of their fun. They eventually decide to join the DWU full-time. After Squealer is healed by Metis after she nearly dies of an overdose, she decides to leave the Merchants, join the DWU and get clean. The Varga itself, quite possibly. It admits that it fought for the side of evil in the war between the Greater Powers, and it's never made quite clear whether or not it chose its side, but it is an extremely moral and beneficent figure in the story proper. | |

Magic A Is Magic A | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_6c3d1777 | comment |
Magic A Is Magic A: Varga can create a multitude of things out of what's in the space between dimensions; he says it's OK to call it magic. The Varga and his magic also don't work well with Parahuman powers, especially Thinkers; Tattletale's power just gets a random mess of information when analysing him, Panacea finds Taylor's biology completely alien (though it does give her some ideas despite Taylor being immune to being changed), and the EDM she can generate cannot interact with Brandish's power to turn herself into a ball of light. | |

Extreme Omnivore: Varga's biology lets Taylor eat and digest almost all forms of matter, even steel ships, live grenades or Dragon-craft. One of her best threats to disobedient criminals is to eat them. Heck, it even interacts with her Spontaneous Weapon Creation; by devouring a bit of matter she doesn't quite understand, she and Varga can instantly reproduce it perfectly. | |

One time, while she was training, she let a Merchant sniper shoot her nine or ten times in the side of the head and completely ignored them, even while chatting nonchalantly to New Wave, and only when the chance of collateral damage got high did she run in and incapacitate him. It's not a very good idea. | |

Super-Empowering: Danny and Amy both find themselves recipients of healing symbiotes of Amy's own design, which will rapidly heal injuries and even stave off old age. Amy provides herself, Lisa, Randall and Kevin with neural amplifiers, which allow them to think and process information a lot faster, in addition to some body reinforcement. Not only is it necessary for the former two to be able to control the Family biosuits Ianthe and Metis, they also provide a boost to mental parahuman powers. To separate her new identity from Sherrel/Squealer, Amy gives Linda's new body a Changer/Brute rating in the form of a manual transformation into a Little Bit Beastly Cat Girl. | |

Portal Door: Raptaur, Armsmaster, Dragon, Legend, Über and Leet work together to recreate a wormhole generator prototype that the latter originally constructed. Later, Taylor constructs doors that open to distant destinations. | |

Let Us Never Speak of This Again | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_7d4a47d1 | comment |
Let Us Never Speak of This Again: When talking about her Mark 17 healing symbiote, Amy jokes that her Mark 16 went very wrong, and she doesn't like it being brought up. Whatever the job Faultline and her crew were doing that kept them out of Brockton Bay for the entirety of the Family's rise to fame, it left them Covered in Gunge and they agree to never mention it again. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_7d89315b | comment |
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: A more tame example: After both Vicky and Amy get mad at their mother Carol for going off on Amy simply for doing her own thing and being more outgoing, they tell their aunt Sarah about the situation and Sarah goes to give her sister a long overdue talk about how she's been treating her daughters, over a glass of wine. We then find out that the sisters are Sentimental Drunks. | |

Impossibly Cool Clothes: The ability to create stuff lets Taylor cheat at her costume and get one that looks professionally made with little to no effort, and is completely indestructible to boot. She even makes some for Amy and New Wave. To say nothing of Danny's Badass Longcoat birthday present, made out of what amounts to dragonskin. | |

Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_8042e814 | comment |
Actually Pretty Funny: Clockblocker admits this after Sauriel pranks him by sneaking up behind him and dripping Tabasco sauce on his arm. When Varga develops a cloaking technique so that people will ignore Taylor's now omnipresent tail, Danny likens witnessing it in action to The Somebody Else's Problem Field. Varga thinks the comparison is quite apt. The Family consider Leviathan swimming around the planet like a headless chicken trying to get as far away from them as possible to be quite humorous. Simurgh's PHO postings as Winged One are this for Metis in particular. | |

Entertainingly Wrong | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_81c4faa3 | comment |
Entertainingly Wrong: Just about every wild theory on PHO and beyond about "The Family" and their origins, from Piggot and Ms. Militia's theory of them being biotinker constructs to the wild theory of them being aliens (the latter of which is actively and indirectly encouraged by the Family). Right for the Wrong Reasons: The biotinker construct theory isn't true for Saurial, but it is true for Ianthe and Metis. And technically The Varga is an alien. To say nothing of the fabricated story that Taylor is spreading of them being ancient aliens that are part of the Cthulhu Mythos. On a smaller scale, Danny mentions that his birthday coat from Saurial is made of the skin of an extinct flying reptile (courtesy of Varga's past knowledge). Vicky instantly thinks "dinosaur". Zephron called Danny "Boss" as a sort of a joke. Add to that Danny's blood ties to actual Mafia, a delivery later on makes a lot of people think wrongly about that title. A couple people connected to less-than legal activities doing a delivery to the DWU hears Alec talking to Brian about a video game, and think's he's talking about an assassination he performed. In an omake, a government official puts together the aforementioned blood ties to actual Mafia and the fact that the DWU has been using hundreds of thousands of dollars of supplies and equipment with no paper trail (because the Varga created it all out of thin air) in the dock repairs, and comes to the conclusion that the DWU is the lynchpin of the biggest smuggling/money-laundering scheme on record. Vicky realizes the connection between Saurial and Taylor... and comes to the conclusion that Taylor was either raised alongside Saurial, or Saurial's human identity. They let her in on the truth later. After seeing Taylor deal with a Merchant who tried taking her hostage, Sophia concludes that Taylor's known the Family for years, and let Sophia bully her for more than a year as a long sting. That said, she still plans to kill Taylor and her father, then seek training from the Family. | |

Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_820ac351 | comment |
It Amused Me: Taylor makes everyone believe there's a family of strong, smart and large lizards living in the bay, mostly for shits and giggles. Taylor quickly adopts the habit of taking the option that will leave everyone scratching their heads even if it's slightly harder. Varga suspects The Greater Powers to be guilty of this, not that he's complaining considering what he got out the deal. | |

Cover-Blowing Superpower: Happens to Taylor a couple of times. Amy accidentally trips over Taylor's invisible tail, after which Taylor offers her a hand up... and upon touching Taylor, Amy's power informs her that Taylor's biology operates on principles wholly unlike anything else on Earth. Dinah tries to use her power to find out whether Taylor will be free for dinner... and discovers that Taylor is the same sort of Thinker blindspot she already knows the rest of the Family to be. | |

Sarah's plan to talk to her sister Carol about the way the latter's been treating her daughters started with a bottle of wine to share. It ended in one agonizing morning.

Powers That Be: The vaguely-described "greater powers", some of whom conscripted the Varga and other demons to fight in their wars, while their opponents were able to seal away the Varga and his fellows and impose the Bargain on them. As Taylor points out, given how incredibly powerful the Varga is, the fact that these "greater powers" were able to enslave/imprison him speaks volumes as to how powerful they are. | |

Super Power Lottery: Taylor's trigger grants her so many powers that only the only ones with more powers than her are the guy whose power is that he can have any power he wants and the the twelve year old that can steal your ghost, and while they have 'more' powers, the 'strength' of the various powers she does have make her far stronger. And given enough time she could surpass both in number too. | |

Took a Level in Badass: While Taylor is by far the biggest example, the same is also true of Amy and Lisa; Amy's biotinkering leads to the creation of symbiotes that can boost physical abilities, enough to give the pair mild Brute ratings. And that's before they get their Bioconstructs to become Ianthe and Metis, who are fairly high level Brutes and their pre-existing powers get boosted. Danny too; why is Lustrum in The Birdcage? Danny put her there, and if she ever escapes she knows he'll finish the job in a heartbeat. With petrol and a match. While he isn't involved in The Business, The Mafia remember what his Dad and Grandfather did back in the day and treat him with a great deal of respect. To the point that they're looking into the bullying at Wilmslow, and Shadow Stalker will now have to worry about having a price on her head. | |

Flock of Wolves | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_9e74f33 | comment |
Flock of Wolves: Generally Averted; every Intelligence Agency and Criminal Enterprise is trying to get men inside the DWU, but they tend not to get very far. Several of the DWU's employees used to be in both, so can spot their own from a mile away. One canon omake features two different government operatives who are both very carefully working to infiltrate the DWU (for different agencies) running into each other, and each mistaking the other for one of Danny's agents. | |

Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_9f970427 | comment |
Secret-Keeper: Regarding the secret about how The Family members are just separate identities and forms of Taylor, only her father, Amy, Lisa, a few members of the Dockworkers, Über, Leet and Gallant know. And the latter is unaware that the Family members Ianthe and Metis are just bioengineered living suits for Amy and Lisa to use. | |

Scaled Up: Every single one of Taylor's Varga forms, from the 6ft 5in Sauriel, to the 8-9ft Raptaur, though the flying Breksta (basically Toothless), to the 85ft Kaiju, the 190ft Umihebi, and especially the maximum-sized 400ft Varga. She also considering dragon forms with a mile wide wingspan. Amy has the 7ft 6in Ianthe (Metis being similar if a little taller due to Lisa being a little bigger than Amy) and the 25ft long 40ft wingspan Nike. | |

Ever since the debut of Kaiju, Skidmark has been going around, mouthing off what amounts to "meh, I can take her". Then he starts perusing arms dealers... Apparently several groups have put prices on his head because they're smart enough to realize pissing the Family off even by proxy will be disastrous. | |

Imagination-Based Superpower | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_a7f551dc | comment |
Imagination-Based Superpower: Above all else, Varga's power of Spontaneous Weapon Creation is this, being able to create, out of thin air, any material in any construct Taylor wants, however simple or complex as long as she can understand it, lasting for as long as she wants (even permanently), and with properties that outright break the laws of physics. And later even the laws of space. And when she's working alongside Tinkers, the stuff they can make is virtually limitless. As shown when Vectura made a Hard Light Tron cycle in the space of three hours. | |

Space Master | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_a96c2803 | comment |
Space Master: Besides Vista, who gets significantly stronger after Saurial gives her some pointers, Taylor and the Varga can mess with space, like when they trap Coil in an endless hallway. They can leverage this in a multitude of ways, including but not restricted to: Bigger on the Inside Pocket Dimension, including where they store Varga's excess mass when they aren't using it. Me's a Crowd is one way they can use said excess. Teleporters and Transporters by summoning a copy a distance away and dispelling the original, they can create a facsimile of this. Reality Warper to a degree Bizarrchitecture / Alien Geometries, possibly up to Eldritch Location Telepathy via fractally linked nodes in the brain that allows Amy and Lisa to communicate with them and each other. Another Dimension: Leet's throwaway comment about his failed Shield Generator shunting excess energy to one gives Taylor the inspiration to figure out how to do this, and analysing a parahuman's brain (in the first case Lisa's) while their powers are in use enables Taylor and Varga to track down where their shards are located... Depower: ...and thus how to permanently strip a parahuman of their powers via Earth-Shattering Kaboom if absolutely necessary. | |

Spell My Name with a "The": After Amy saves her friend Lucy from a mugger, everyone takes to referring to her as The Amy, much to her chagrin.

Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_abd29ad8 | comment |
No-Sell: Even aside from Taylor's Nigh-Invulnerability, any parahuman power that tries to analyze her - and by extension the Varga - just gets a supreme headache. It gets even worse for Coil: the moment his power tries to model the Varga in a new timeline, all he gets is an immense feeling of unknowing and dread before it spontaneously shuts down. Amy's biokinesis can analyse but not affect Taylor, and she gets her equivalent of a Thinker headache for trying. | |

Oh, Crap!: Taylor and Danny were caught in the middle of one of Über and Leet's stunts. When they went over the footage, they actually were able to tell that Taylor had a tail, meaning she was a cape. Then Randall saw Danny Hebert in the same shot, he quickly told Kevin to delete any shots of them, not out of fear of angering a new cape, but out of fear of angering Danny. | |

Armsmaster: Saurial's general engineering ability appeals to his Efficiency sensibilities, and meeting the above, whose work he also begins to appreciate, helps with his bad people skills and makes him less of a Glory Hound and much more open to mass collaboration.

Multiple Aliases, One Character: Taylor not only masquerades as Saurial, but also Raptaur, Kaiju, Umihebi and Varga himsel, later Breksta too; she does it to further the distance between her civilian and cape identity, but also for shits and giggles. Also happens to Amy Dallon aka Panacea as Ianthe and later Nike, Lisa Wilbourn aka Tattletale as Metis, and eventually Missy Biron aka Vista as Cloak. Averted with Linda Morgan aka Vectura as her original identity as Sherrel aka Squealer is officially deceased. | |

Loophole Abuse | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_b1dde8fd | comment |
Loophole Abuse: Amy's biokinesis doesn't work on herself. But she can use it to create a symbiotic organism that can heal and modify her body on her behalf. Dragon's programming obliges her to obey the orders of legal authority, even if she disagrees with them. So Varga creates a pocket dimension and invokes his right as de-facto ruler of such to order her to only act according to her own moral compass, and to only respond to any further orders regarding such given in an obscure long dead language that only The Family and now Dragon knows to prevent any attempts at circumventing it. | |

Transforming Mecha: The DWU eventually gets some made for haulage and construction work by Vectura, their new Tinker. Robot Buddy: Vectura keeps tweaking with the neural interface on her mechs trying to improve their performance, using her own brain as a template. The original, which has had more done to it, starts to develop a personality akin to an inquisitive cat. She combines her transforming tech with Taylor's Spatial Warping to allow it to take the form of something size of a Lnyx while it stores the excess in a pocket dimension. She names it Blue. | |

Shout-Out | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: During a training session Taylor makes a dummy which she names Thag, she proceeds to use her tail that gained spikes not unlike that of a Stegosaurus to decimate it, thus making her tail a Thagomizer. A lot of famous movie themes are played during Kaiju's introduction to Brockton Bay. As the Family becomes more prolific, they start to spread the idea that they have origins in the Cthulhu Mythos, even having slogans in R'ylehian. This becomes the primary theme when they finally infiltrate Coil's base. When Raptaur, Armsmaster, Dragon and their other associates complete a working portal door, they find that one end is blue and the other end is orange. And later, Sarah Pelham is talking to her sister Carol about how she promised her son Eric a chocolate cake, and that she wouldn't want it to be a lie. Omakes about portal tech contain numerous ones to Stargate SG-1 After watching How to Train Your Dragon, Taylor designs a dragon form that takes a lot of inspiration from Toothless. A few of Leet's projects that he's made in the past include the Mjolnir armor and the BFG10k. During her PRT power testing as Vectura, Linda develops a TRON light cycle as a demonstration. While Vista is trying to work out how to apply what she's seen from The Family's non-euclidian architecture, her answer comes about as 42 (The answer to The Ultimate Question), despite the fact that the question itself contains no numbers. During one meeting with Dragon, Saurial channels Michelle from 'Allo 'Allo!. The whole Everyone Hates Mimes prank is presumably one to Silencio. The first installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe crossover omakes has Saurial looking for her Negative Energy Modulation Oscillator. | |

Boxing Lessons for Superman | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_ca1f9429 | comment |
Boxing Lessons for Superman: Vista learns how to stabilize and make her Space Master distortions self-sustaining after Taylor and Varga work out how to manifest them themselves. And that's just the start of it. With her Spontaneous Weapon Creation extending itself to various elements and compounds, Taylor pays extra attention in chemistry class to leverage as much as she can out of it. In a literal case of Boxing Lessons, she starts teaching Ianthe and Metis, aka Amy and Lisa The Family's fighting style, and is toying with the idea of getting everyone in the DWU who knows how to fight (Zephron, their ex-military guys) to give lessons in their specific styles. | |

Taking You with Me | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_caf89e54 | comment |
Taking You with Me: Jake Petty vs Slaughterhouse 9. They'd just been through his hometown, butchered his wife, son and everyone he knew. With nothing to live for and nothing to lose, they were going to die, they just didn't know it. Heads I Win, Tails You Lose: Once they were in range of his cache of explosives, their fate was sealed. Try to kill him? Try to retreat? The bombs go off anyway. Pre-Mortem One-Liner: Exact Words: Lampshaded in chapter; even given their terrifying reputations and kill orders, in all previous (ie parahuman) encounters with the Nine, the best the heroes could hope for was to stop them. Thus, they were completely unprepared for a normal human who is actively and completely Hell bent on killing them. | |

Nothing Is Scarier | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_cdfe12c3 | comment |
Nothing Is Scarier: Taylor turns out to be really good at playing the Terror Hero; when dealing with gang-members, she likes to turn off the lights, stalk her prey and scare them out of their wits. On another level, Thinker powers that attempt to model or predict the Varga find themselves completely unable to do so, leaving behind an unpredictable void that is somehow a lot more unnerving. This also applies to Vista's persona as Cloak, since her powers make it seem like her costume is not being worn by anyone. | |

Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_ce03051f | comment |
The Spark of Genius: Near the tail end of his two-day caffiene rush, Chris built a device that apparently produces piping-hot pizzas out of nowhere, without supplies or any visible power source. Having no memory of building the device, Chris is left to wonder how it works and (given that his specialty is replaceable modules), what the pizza-creator is a module of. He also made a donut maker that Missy is particularly appreciative of. To the point they put it in a locked closet to keep her away from it. | |

Lighter and Softer | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_ce6555f0 | comment |
Lighter and Softer: Significantly more optimistic and overall happier then the source material. This is mostly due to Varga being extremely nice and helpful for a demonic Reality Warper. His presence improves Taylor's life massively and gives her the power to improve the lives of many other characters in turn. There's even an in-universe reason: his very presence interferes with the Entity/shards/Endbringer communication network, which canonically increased the Entity-sourced desire of Capes to engage in conflict. Capes in the ever-increasing area of effect near the Varga seem (mostly) calmer, more thoughtful, and less likely to escalate a fight. And then there's Eidolon... | |

Magnetic Hero: Taylor is noted as this by Lisa. This even seems to apply to shards, even if they have trouble reading her/the Varga directly most of the time, the information they indirectly produce fascinates them, and their hosts tend to become less combat driven, though others seem to have the opposite reaction. | |

Panacea: A chance encounter with her leads to Amy figuring out Taylor's secret, which leads to friendship and making a new circle of friends who aren't Victoria (and thus stops fixating on her and quickly seeing on her own what would have happened in canon had she not done so), a safe and private place where she can experiment and get creative with a power that is considered taboo (averting that particular psychological pressure cooker), reducing her hours at the hospital (so she isn't so overworked and depressed) and calling Carol out on her shit parenting (which in combination with a "Reason You Suck" Speech from Sarah results in Carol turning over a new leaf and giving Amy a much more settled home life. So while she's still as sarcastic and acerbic as ever, she's a lot more good natured about it. | |

Lampshaded | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_d332bf54 | comment |
Taylor and the Varga decided to swim north for some weapons testing, ending up in the vicinity of Newfoundland. They blasted a couple of islands to pieces using hammer strikes, releasing enough energy that it caught the attention of Dragon and Armsmaster. While testing the blast voice, they blew up several more islands, drawing a line directly from their initial strikes to Saint's hidden base (which they had no idea was there, and which is completely undetectable from the outside). They then randomly decide to see if they can cut an island in half with the blast voice, and in so doing totally destroy Saint's weaponry and suits, the Ascalon console, and the base's life support systems while leaving Saint and his minions alive and unharmed, yet helpless and with no option other than to surrender to the Dragon craft that was coming to investigate Taylor and the Varga's earlier antics. And they did all this while there was no effective satellite coverage, so the PRT has no real data on who they are. This actually gets Lampshaded by Armsmaster, who argues that whoever was behind this must have known exactly who and where Saint was and have detailed intelligence on PRT capabilities, because the idea of pulling off something with this many moving parts by accident beggars belief. | |

Refuge in Audacity: When Dragon is turning Saint over to the PRT, and warning them he believes she's an AI, she asks a trooper, "I mean, do I look like a robot?" Kaiju's introduction to the Brockton Bay public: have the mayor "hire" her to do some heavy lifting, and just show up and do the work in full view of the city, in the knowledge that everyone would be too stunned to do anything about it. The Family's solution to crippling the Merchants' monetary supplies: just reach in to their hideout and take the lot. With a giant Kaiju hand and the pathway facilitated by Cloak's space bending. In other words, the target of their boss's ire just absconded with their entire stash and there wasn't a damn thing they could do about it. Having a Chicken Walker Mini-Mecha on hand for dock work and construction is one thing, equipping it with plasma lances and EDM cutters for metalwork is another, but how do you justify equipping it with a stealth and sound suppression system? Well, construction is noisy. | |

Contrived Coincidence | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_dc579c91 | comment |
Contrived Coincidence: Coil's last booby trap inside the PRT building caused a power surge that loosened Sophia's restraints, knocked out her trackers, and made them unable to recharge, allowing her to escape. When Danny goes to visit some family friends in New York, the two deliverymen who made a recent shipment to Brockton Bay and drew some Entertainingly Wrong conclusions find themselves running into him more times than they feel are coincidental, much to their paranoia. Note the "contrived" part though, as Danny's friend finds the whole story very amusing... Taylor and the Varga decided to swim north for some weapons testing, ending up in the vicinity of Newfoundland. They blasted a couple of islands to pieces using hammer strikes, releasing enough energy that it caught the attention of Dragon and Armsmaster. While testing the blast voice, they blew up several more islands, drawing a line directly from their initial strikes to Saint's hidden base (which they had no idea was there, and which is completely undetectable from the outside).

The Varga and his magic also don't work well with Parahuman powers, especially Thinkers; Tattletale's power just gets a random mess of information when analysing him, Panacea finds Taylor's biology completely alien (though it does give her some ideas despite Taylor being immune to being changed), and the EDM she can generate cannot interact with Brandish's power to turn herself into a ball of light. | |

From Nobody to Nightmare: The Dock-Workers Union of Brockton Bay.

Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Sometimes, when confronted by the Family, parahumans suddenly turn confrontational and aggressive when facing such an unknown threat. So far, both Miss Militia and Eidolon have experienced this effect. Luckily, most seem to have the opposite reaction. | |

Exact Words: Lampshaded in chapter; even given their terrifying reputations and kill orders, in all previous (ie parahuman) encounters with the Nine, the best the heroes could hope for was to stop them. Thus, they were completely unprepared for a normal human who is actively and completely Hell bent on killing them. | |

Explosive Stupidity: Oni Lee is the unfortunate recipient of this trope while pursuing the Undersiders; he ends up blown to pieces by his own grenades. One hypothesis is that since the Undersiders were armed with Knockout Gas bombs, they took effect on him right after he teleported in and pulled the pins, and prevented him from teleporting out again. | |

Mafia Princess: Taylor ends up being one due to her ancestry, as she has ancestors from both sides of her family tree from various 'Families' from Italy and Corsica in particular. It certainly doesn't hurt that Danny has managed to cultivate quite a reputation despite not actually doing anything criminal, partly due to Zephron calling him 'Boss' or 'Padre' on a regular basis. | |

Friend on the Force: Inverted; Antonio is Legend's Friend In The Mafia, and one of his most reliable sources of intel. The Necessarily Evil nature of the arrangement is pointed out; if the crime is organised, it's more likely to keep damage and casualties to a minimum and thus make his working day easier. Assault apparently knows Antonio too. Legend's also on a real name basis with Lung, enough for the latter to give him a tongue lashing on needing to keep Eidolon on a shorter leash. | |

You Were Trying Too Hard: While helping him with his dyscalculia, Taylor figures out that Chris a.k.a. Kid Win and his math skills are better in his subconscious, while he gets bogged down with the details if he thinks about it too much. To help with this, she gives him an abacus to use so calculations are focused more on muscle memory rather than brainpower. | |

Artistic License – Physics: Lampshaded by Leet, who points out that the EDM the Varga creates a) should explode into a plasma in normal gravity and b) should be approximately nine hundred thousand times as heavy as lead, not "only" six-and-a-half times heavier. Gravity Master: Varga is actively compensating for the true weight. When he stops doing so, a 200 pound javelin instantly becomes 12 million tonnes and starts digging straight through the Earth's crust. | |

Robot Buddy: Vectura keeps tweaking with the neural interface on her mechs trying to improve their performance, using her own brain as a template. The original, which has had more done to it, starts to develop a personality akin to an inquisitive cat. She combines her transforming tech with Taylor's Spatial Warping to allow it to take the form of something size of a Lnyx while it stores the excess in a pocket dimension. She names it Blue. | |

Beware the Nice Ones | |
Taylor Varga (Fanfic) / int_fccd06b6 | comment |
Beware the Nice Ones: Taylor's cape personas tend to be fairly affable and polite (except towards criminals), but they're powerful, and if you threaten their/her loved ones you will regret it, something she makes very clear near the start. She gets it from her dad, apparently, Danny Hebert is known in political circles to be fierce when provoked. And if Antonio's intel to Legend is to be believed he saved Annette from Lustrum's (ie one of the most dangerous parahumans in the world) clutches by basically beating the shit out of her, which resulted in her currently spending the rest of her life in The Birdcage. If she ever escapes, the likely outcome will involve Lustrum being burned alive. | |
