With these new, strange abilities she dons the name Nixie and operates as the new superhuman hero for Helsinki.As a Quest, players vote on the player character's actions in between updates written by the author, as the player character rises to the challenge of defending their homes from criminals and the occasional supervillain alongside other heroes in their respective cities.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })UNMARKED SPOILERS AHEAD | |

| The First Hero (Roleplay) / int_112daba0 | comment |
Retired Badass: The Eagle following the Consul arc. It was revealed via Word of God that this would have eventually happened to Justicar further down the line as he becomes an Old Superhero and his body has experienced a lot of wear and tear from his activities that make it difficult to actually continue with being a superhero. | |

Starfish Language | |
| The First Hero (Roleplay) / int_115b9907 | comment |
Starfish Language: When attempting to speak in her monster form, Nixie instinctively talks in a completely alien language. She doesn't seem to be aware that she is doing this as in her first attempt to talk in monster form was an attempt to stop a fight between herself and Oskar Rautkallio, completely oblivious to the horrifying Language Barrier. | |

The Hedonist | |
| The First Hero (Roleplay) / int_2059a430 | comment |
The Hedonist: Nixie's biggest vice is how much of a hedonist she is. She's a Hard-Drinking Party Girl who also partakes in morphine, heroin and cocaine with her friends. Her hedonistic thrill-seeking life-style is also her main motivation for wanting to be a superhero. In terms of gameplay, doing actions that she finds fun or interesting (such as infiltrating a party by pretending to be a guest) can lower her stress, while actions she finds boring (such as taking Boring, but Practical approaches to a situation) can cause her stress. | |

Ghost Ship: On her first outing as a hero, Nixie goes to investigate the S/S Tuonetar — a smuggler ship that arrived into port, but no sight of any of the crew. Investigating the ship, she finds a bunch of dead bodies and a creature that looks like her monster form. | |

Hero with Bad Publicity | |
| The First Hero (Roleplay) / int_313e9485 | comment |
Hero with Bad Publicity: Taurian gets this treatment a lot, especially from right-winged media, due being a Communist icon for his defense of union meetings and workers’ rallies when they come under attack, which gets him labeled as the "Red Terror". Even when he helps saves the city from Dox Pox with the other heroes his part in stopping the supervillain gets downplayed or outright not mentioned. Talon also gets hit with this during the Organisation Consul arc in an attempt by the titular group to ruin his reputation. | |

| The First Hero (Roleplay) / int_3f2dfd16 | comment |
Super Hero Origin: Naturally these would show up. Talon's is Random Selection, as his powers came about after being trigger by him getting beaten up by some Freikorps castoffs that were threatening his neighborhood. Nixie's is Augmentation, as her powers are a result with her encounter with a terrifying force in the Baltic Sea that ended up giving her Psychic Powers and a monstrous transformation. | |

Robot Superhero: According to Word of God one of the potential recruits of the Wunderliga would have been the Steel Soldier, a Robot Soldier created by a Mad Scientist to lead Germany into a new war and reclaim its former glory. But the confrontation with the Wunderliga would had them Turned Against Their Masters as they calculated that it was ultimately in Germany's best interest for them to fight for the world. | |

Contrasting Sequel Main Character | |
| The First Hero (Roleplay) / int_517d2eb8 | comment |
Contrasting Sequel Main Character: Nixie is quite different Talon in a lot of ways. Talon's power is genetic, while Nixie's powers are clearly supernatural in origin. Talon is The Cape who fights a righteous battle against the criminal underbelly of Berlin, while Nixie is The Hedonist whose primary reason for wanting to be a masked adventurer is Just for Fun. Talon gained his powers attempting to stop right-winged thugs from harming his community, while Nixie gained her powers after taking a mysterious concoction at a club that ultimately lead her encountering a terrifying being in the Baltic Sea. Talon's costume is a rather stylish, but practical tuxedo and mask combo meant to represent the society he is fighting for, while Nixie's costume is a rather flashy (and revealing) flapper dress, mask, and hooded coat that is designed to call to mind the sea. | |

| The First Hero (Roleplay) / int_61b8f9e2 | comment |
Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Though she is a hedonistic Functional Addict, Nixie started the quest with a rank 8 in Psychology and Insight, and rank 10 in Deception. To put that in perspective, by the mechanics of Mutants & Masterminds, 8 puts her at being the higher end of professional level training, while 10 is exert level. Naturally these skills can be improved further with certain actions on the part of the players. | |

Mr. Vice Guy: One of the new mechanics of the quest is that each of the selectable Player Characters has a unique Vice (such as Nixie's hedonism or Revenant's penchant for violence). Going against these vices can cause Stress to build up in the character, while acting in accordance with their personality can lower their Stress. | |

Black-Tie Infiltration | |
| The First Hero (Roleplay) / int_919eaa09 | comment |
Black-Tie Infiltration: Nixie does this to get into the Midnight Society's party. She is able to pull this off due to her rather fancy costume, overhearing the entrance ritual and secret codes to get into the party, then producing the invitation to said party that she found on the S/S Tuonetar. By the end of the initial conversation, the doorman more or less believed Nixie to just be a new member and the rest of the Society's membership in attendance don't question her presence. | |

Nixie fits this pretty well in the Henshin Hero sense, just with a Lovecraftian Superpower twist! | |

Atrocious Alias: Discussed by when Nixie stressed the importance of picking a name as a mask, lest the press give you one of these. | |

| The First Hero (Roleplay) / int_9f970427 | comment |
Secret-Keeper: As a superhero story naturally this crops up quite a bit for various heroes. Talon in particular has his family, his friend Klaus, his team, and the Amazing Anzimee all aware of his Secret Identity. Nixie has her friends knowing her's. | |

Karma Houdini | |
| The First Hero (Roleplay) / int_a70223 | comment |
Karma Houdini: King Diamond manages to walk free after his defeat at the hands of Talon and the Eagle due to his connects and the shakiness of the evidence provided by the before mentioned vigilantes. Historical Domain Character Kapp Pustch conspirators, Kapp and von Lüttwitz, also go unpunished for their attempted coup intentionally by the government so long as they don't cause anymore trouble, something that doesn't sit well with Talon. | |

Red Baron: Barring hero/villain names, quite a few people have their share of titles. Talon is the "Savior of the Republic", Taurian is called the "Red Terror" by right-winged media, the Wunderliga as a whole is called "Berlin's Finest", "the Iron Four", among other titles. | |

The Freikorps hire Aviatrix to steal steal a minister's private papers, King Diamond hires Khukuri to be his new lieutenant after he defeated five other would-be lieutenants, and Organisation Consul gets a Carnival of Killers to try and take out Talon and the other heroes. | |

Berserk Button | |
| The First Hero (Roleplay) / int_bc74ef27 | comment |
Berserk Button: While he is generally quick to anger, Oskar Rautkallio/Revenant's biggest trigger is alcohol, being a recovered alcoholic and having seen many of his fellows go down that path. Nexie unintentionally presses it in her first encounter with him when trying to deescalate the already tense situation by suggesting they go talk over drinks. This ends up starting a fight. | |

Death Activated Super Power: Revenant's power is a variation of this as from the description of the Revenant powerset, he had to die in order to gain his powers. After death he came back to life with a Healing Factor and the ability to see and talk to ghosts. | |

Captain Patriotic: While he isn't a Captain Geographic, Talon is arguably this. He loves his country, its values, and firmly believes in the potential of the republic for which he fights for. And while he might not wear his country on his sleeve, his costume was designed to represent the society of Germany. | |

For Halloween, I Am Going as Myself | |
| The First Hero (Roleplay) / int_df33a778 | comment |
For Halloween, I Am Going as Myself: When Nixie and Revenant go to investigate the mysterious Midnight Society at an event the group is hosting at a hotel, they find out that the members are entering wearing fine clothes and masks. Since her costume is a rather fancy flapper dress with a mask, Nixie opts to infiltrate the party by pretending to be a member. It was also an excuse to enjoy the party and get some free alcohol without angering Revenant. | |

HULK MASH!-Up: The Beast Man who Talon encounters is functionally this, turning into a monstrous form he doesn't have that much control over. Talon is able to help him control his monstrous side and he later becomes a member of the Wunderliga in *The Northern Hero*. Nixie fits this pretty well in the Henshin Hero sense, just with a Lovecraftian Superpower twist! | |

Was Once a Man: Investigating the S/S Tuonetar, Nixie encounters a Sea Monster like her other form. Through attempted conversation and what clues she managed to dig up regarding the crew and passengers of the ship, she is able to deduce that the monster was a man named Voitto Sundberg. Though unlike Nixie, Voitto's transformation appears to have been unwilling and his mind isn't all there anymore. | |
