Trump Card is a Worm fanfiction by ack1308. Taylor becomes a Power Copying Trump and, after learning Sophia is Shadow Stalker, ends up calling herself Hax and joining forces with Uber and Leet to become team "Pwnage".Taylor gains powers in the locker; this much is familiar. But the power she gets, and what she does with it, begins to change things around considerably. Faced with the pressure of the power she has, and official apathy, she must make her own decisions, and take a different route to achieve her goals. There will be trouble.Completed as of August 19th, 2019 at 37 chapters. Also available at SpaceBattles.com (here) and Sufficient Velocity.com (here). | |

Can't Kill You, Still Need You | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_1206d299 | comment |
Can't Kill You, Still Need You: Alexandria is quite accustomed to prioritising Endbringer battles over almost everything else, so even though she's basically certain that Taylor has become a villain, she doesn't bother trying to arrest her. She just advises her to keep any criminal activity low-key. She later breaks off pursuit of Pwnage when she realises that Taylor has built a weapon that has the Simurgh worried. | |

Instant Expert: With the way her Power Copying ability senses powers, Taylor can quickly understand how a power works and what its limits are, to the point that she can do better with a power than the cape whose power it actually is. | |

All There in the Manual | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: Part of Taylor's powers means that she gets a stream of information from the shard of the cape her "lightspot" focuses on, allowing her to almost immediately understand the power's workings even better than the cape it belongs to does. For Cauldron capes it's different, with Taylor actually comparing it in-universe to a manual. This is referenced again when she meets Eidolon and reveals that his power actually has the equivalent of a manual, which he's never found and used. | |

Poor Communication Kills | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: Thanks to Taylor's cynicism at the PRT, when Piggot tries to pass the buck by saying that she can't get Shadow Stalker fired (she actually can't, unless she wants to get the Youth Guard involved in her business, which even Chief Director Costa-Brown says is understandable), Taylor sees it as another example of authority being used against her and is turned to a life of crime as an end result. When Taylor called New Wave to get a second opinion on heroic power usage, Mark (who was off his meds at the time) answered the phone. He botched the conversation badly and couldn't even remember it later, leaving Taylor pointed straight into Uber and L33t's waiting arms. As it turns out, Eidolon's shard has a manual of sorts that Eidolon's never even noticed or read. After Taylor turns her ability to him, she realizes in seconds that he set the Endbringers loose (and stops them), how to control what powers she uses, and even how he can recharge. | |

HowDoIShootWeb | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_1d6ab0a8 | comment |
How Do I Shot Web?: Taylor completely avoids this with her powers. In fact, she has the inversion of this- she can figure out how people's powers work better than they can. One omake had Miss Militia's power gushing over how Taylor figured out how to do dual-wielding with different weapons (a taser and a pistol). | |

High-Altitude Interrogation | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_1f17e9fe | comment |
High-Altitude Interrogation: Alexandria holds Shadow Stalker off the roof of the PRT building and tells her that since Taylor will not trust the PRT so long as Sophia's affiliated with them, and her powers are infinitely more useful than Shadow Stalker's, Sophia has the choice of making a complete confession of her crimes and resigning from the Wards to go to prison, or "accidentally" falling off the roof while "trying to escape". | |

Obstructive Bureaucrat | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_1f799027 | comment |
Obstructive Bureaucrat: The process for dismissing a Ward who doesn't wish to resign, even when there is hard evidence of gross criminal misconduct on behalf of the Ward, is so complicated that it might as well be impossible. Taylor interprets the fact that Piggot can't do anything about Shadow Stalker because of the complex regulations as a sign that she won't, and refuses to have anything to do with the Wards. | |

| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_20a14df0 | comment |
Wrong Genre Savvy: Taylor initially got a sort-of blank check to do crime as long as she's not caught because of how useful her power is... but Alexandria puts her foot down because "Stealing money from armored cars," is less problematic than "Breaking into a secure vault and stealing Endbringer material." | |

Chekhov's Gun: Taylor's stun rifle proves fundamental when the Simurgh comes to kill Taylor, as it gives Pwnage just enough time to pummel the Endbringer with the anti-Endbringer rifle. | |

Awesome, but Impractical: Taylor's stun rifle can stun an Endbringer, except that a) it would only be for about a second or two, b) the amount of power it'd use would mean that it would need to be hooked directly up to a nuclear reactor, and c) It will then explode. The gun, not the Endbringer. | |

Damsel in Distress: Taylor gets "kidnapped" three times over the course of the story. Sort of. Two of the times were to her robot Body Double, while the third got the real one. It's not a good sign, though, when Uber and L33t's first reaction on hearing that Taylor got kidnapped, is to cry out "AGAIN?" | |

Body Double | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_4977d7b8 | comment |
One of Coil's favorite things to do is to use his "double timeline" power to torture or troll other people without suffering the consequences of his actions. When Taylor comes to rescue her Body Double, she copies Coil's power and makes a split timeline only to explain to him who she is, what she can do — and inform him she was only doing it to see his face before she dropped the timeline. | |

All Your Powers Combined: Taylor can only use one power at a time, but she can swap back and forth quickly, allowing her to use a variety of different powers within one confrontation. Furthermore, since she's working with L33t, who can build anything, and Uber, who can learn anything, she essentially has at-will access to both powers, allowing her to incorporate both into her Tinker creations. | |

Le Parkour: Possibly Taylor's favourite part of copying Uber's power is being able to parkour around her neighbourhood, running rooftops and vaulting fences without slowing down.

Locking MacGyver in the Store Cupboard | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_673999b1 | comment |
Locking MacGyver in the Store Cupboard: When Aegis and Vista come across a portal frame that has been used to break into an electronics warehouse as part of an ongoing burglary, Vista suggests taking the frame off, trapping the thieves until reinforcements can arrive. Then she realises that that would mean locking a presumable Tinker inside a warehouse full of high-end electronics, which would probably end with the Tinker building a giant robot to smash the wall down. When the Empire sets a trap for Hax, they know she has displayed several powers, but they don't realise that she's actually a Trump — so they bring along almost their whole line-up of capes to fight her. | |

Behemoth Battle: Pwnage's "Plan D" for robbing the Ruby Dreams casino is that Lung arrives and Taylor uses his power to fight him while everyone else gets away. She and Lung both grow large enough to shatter buildings, and both struggle to do lasting harm to each other, but her Tinkertech and her superior grasp of what his power can do let her gain the upper hand until everyone is clear. And the video footage is extremely popular. | |

An Offer You Can't Refuse: Alexandria gets quite upset by how the PRT's mistakes and aggression have pushed Taylor away, and deals with Shadow Stalker her own way, sending away the witnesses and then seizing Sophia by the throat to give her two options. Option 1, Sophia goes to Director Piggot and confesses everything. Option 2, Sophia gets dropped from a great height in Tinkertech handcuffs that prevent her from using her power. Either way, she will no longer be a sticking point for recruiting or at least reaching out to Taylor. | |

Power Armor: Taylor creates some via Tinkering, loading it with a cloak to allow it to achieve various looks for Pwnage's video game themed crimes, a teleporter, and a device she invents called a "Manton Field Generator", which can either make her resistant to containment foam or make powers she copies treat the suit as part of her and allow her to basically ignore any Manton-limited power. This means that it grows and heals with her when she's copying Lung's powers and fighting him. | |

Taylor and Uber are out running, and Uber suggests that it would be good to persuade L33t to join in, to which Taylor replies, "I'm sorry. I can copy any powerset, and I'm in a team with one guy who can let me learn any skill, and another who can let me build anything. But I can't work miracles." Uber laughs so hard he falls off the fence he's climbed. After hearing about the takedown of Coil, Danny is collapsed in a chair, tears streaming down his face, while struggling to laugh and breathe at the same time. | |

No-Sell: The Manton field generator means that Taylor can basically do this to any Manton limited power. Vicky can do this to Taylor's stun rifle, because of how her force field works... Initially, anyway (it could pop the field, but it couldn't fire again fast enough to take advantage of that and put her down). Taylor later modifies it so that this weakness is covered. Regent is quite annoyed when his power doesn't seem to work on Hax even though he can feel her nerves firing. In reality, she had simply locked her armour servos, so her arms couldn't move. | |

Loophole Abuse | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_b1dde8fd | comment |
Loophole Abuse: Taylor's Power Copying allows her to make duplicates of Leet's tech, and while she cannot make copies of things she makes with it, ceasing to copy the power then copying it again allows her to make a new version of something that she built that no longer exists. As a result, she rigs all her gear with remote self-destruct systems, allowing her to rebuild anything she loses. She later figures out that she can allow Leet to rebuild defunct devices by disassembling them herself then resetting her power, tricking the power into believing that Leet had never made the device before. She can also swap powers to avoid dealing with Thinker headaches (or a Tinker fugue), and use something similar to keep skills she's gained by way of Uber. | |

Plausible Deniability: It quickly becomes clear to Danny that Taylor is using her powers for villainy, but so long as she doesn't directly admit it to him, he has less legal liability. | |

Taking You with Me | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_caf89e54 | comment |
Taking You with Me: Alibi has an implanted bomb so she can be thoroughly destroyed if she's captured. When Coil abducts her and tries to destructively test her power in one timeline, Taylor triggers the bomb and kills him while his back is turned, so he doesn't know exactly what happened. | |

Read the Freaking Manual: Taylor is furious at Eidolon for not doing this, as the man had never realized that his power even had a manual. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_d397657d | comment |
Hoist by His Own Petard: Taylor's Power Copying allows her to do this to every cape she encounters. Alexandria ends up quite interested when facing off someone that can actually equal her in her own strengths. When Aegis and Vista interrupt Pwnage's first robbery, Taylor ends up using Vista's power to surprise her and knock her out, while Aegis gets struck down thanks to her knowing how to do so through studying his power. One of Coil's favorite things to do is to use his "double timeline" power to torture or troll other people without suffering the consequences of his actions. When Taylor comes to rescue her Body Double, she copies Coil's power and makes a split timeline only to explain to him who she is, what she can do — and inform him she was only doing it to see his face before she dropped the timeline. When she fights Lung at the Ruby Dreams casino, she copies his power and transforms into a dragon as well, pummeling him and making him look like a chump. Kaiser kidnaps Taylor while attempting to bring in Hax, but she manages to copy Victor's power and immediately begins to steal the skills of all the Empire capes in the room, pretty much turning them inoffensive while she gets rescued. For bonus karma points, Victor himself is her biggest victim. A quite literal example takes out most of the ABB. Lung kidnaps Alibi and wires her with Semtex to hinder any rescue attempts, but the Undersiders manage to clear him out of the room and knock out the gang members present for long enough to cut Alibi free. Lisa then hides the Semtex under a chair. When the gang members come to and realise "Taylor" is missing, they press the remote trigger, thinking that they can at least blow the girl up, wherever she's gone. The blast takes out enough of the structure that the whole building collapses, killing most of the ABB's membership. | |

A Taste of Their Own Medicine | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_defd0c58 | comment |
A Taste of Their Own Medicine: When Victor comes within Taylor's range, she quickly turns his Power Parasite ability back on him, starting with sucking out his sense of caution, so he won't catch her out, and proceeding with all the other useful skills he's ever stolen. She considers it especially and deliciously ironic that since he doesn't have the actual memories associated with those artificially gained skills, he won't be able to naturally recover them, the way an honestly learned skill would gradually return. | |

Unsportsmanlike Gloating: Pwnage leaves a note in Lung's cell, listing the dollar value of the components they used to defeat him, but with his expression described as "PRICELESS". Lung proceeds to incinerate the note in fury, and get himself containment-foamed. | |

Pass the Popcorn | |

Pass the Popcorn: Contessa uses her power plus Doormaker's to get properly set up for watching Coil interrogate Alibi, then get taken down by Pwnage posing as Armsmaster and two PRT officers. The Wards do this while watching the video of Hax vs. Lung. | |

Ridiculously Human Robots: When Taylor creates Alibi, she presents her to Uber and L33t. Alibi is so human-like that the duo actually thought she was the real Taylor. | |

Exact Words | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_e9e35e8f | comment |
Exact Words: Danny finds out that Taylor is making her own plans for what to do with her power, when they both know all the legal avenues are rigged against them, and he pleads, "Just tell me that it's not illegal." She does — and both of them know she's lying. When Danny tells Taylor that he wouldn't be able to accept stolen money, she laughs and tells him that she's not stealing money, complete with emphasis. Stealing equipment and tools to make lots of money, that's a different matter. | |

Groin Attack | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_eaf5a1ac | comment |
Groin Attack: Even with redundant adaptive biology, Aegis is still temporarily incapacitated and reduced to moaning by a knee to the groin. Blockade sneers at Taylor's attempts to tase him, but when she follows up with a kick to the groin, empowered by her copied Brute rating and her Powered Armor, he doubles over screaming. | |

Unskilled, but Strong: Taylor figures out that Lung is used to going with his power's flow with his upgrades, automatically getting them in stages of size and power. But when Taylor starts selectively choosing the upgrades she needs once she gets enough "points", so to speak, like a thagomizer... | |

Pity the Kidnapper | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_f4faa8f8 | comment |
Pity the Kidnapper: So far, Coil, Lung and the ABB, and now the Empire have kidnapped Taylor (though it was Alibi the first two times), either because they think she's Hax, or because they're trying to lure her out. The first two ended up regretting it, and the third, even before the Endbringer sirens started to signal the Simurgh descending, was at a loss simply from Taylor going to town with Victor's powers and stealing skills. | |

Not Cheating Unless You Get Caught | |
| Trump Card (Fanfic) / int_febb58e2 | comment |
Not Cheating Unless You Get Caught: In Kaiser's mind, the Unwritten/Unspoken Rules only matter to those who can't get away with attacking someone via their secret identity. Luckily for Pwnage, his PRT mole can't access Hax's info, and there's a watch on Uber and Leet's, so he'll leave a trail if he tries to get it. | |
