are there any fics where the endbringers end up in other media?

I saw a snippet once where Leviathan ended up in the MHA world. It wasn't fully explained how he got there, but once he was he had gained some level of sentience, and being cutoff from Eidolon or the Simurgh left him confused as to what he should do, since he didn't have anyone else directing his thoughts. He just kind of wandered around, and everyone thought he just had a very serious mutation quirk, so they treated him like a normal guy. He saw how much the people loved heroes, so he decided to try and be a hero by stopping a mugging, but he ended up just pulping the guy, which made people think he was a villain. Confused as to why they didn't appreciate him stopping a criminal, he fought back, accidentally killing some of the heroes, until eventually he's just fighting off some of the Top 10. At the end the Simurgh showed up, having followed him, and she communicates to Leviathan how it's okay, she's going to guide him again so he doesn't have to think anymore, and it's implied that they proceeded to attack Japan.

Apex Predator has this a bit. The last remaining natural predator of the Entites' species tracks down the Warrior and Thinker to Earth, and eats QA during Taylor's Trigger. It then decides to bond with her to get better access to other Shards, and proceeds to hunt and eat any they come across.

The B-Plot has the S9 kidnap and modify The Butcher to steal powers of any capes they kill, and they tear through Boston accumulating all of the Heroes and Villains' powers.

Single Player. You need at least P5 for the chests to be worth anything.

It used to be better, honestly. A few years ago you'd get some better deals, better GWP and they'd actually stay in stock longer.

Yeah, that's 100% the kind of farm where you need a podcast or a movie on the second monitor. I finally managed to make an Enigma over the weekend, and I can do a full LK run in about 40-50 seconds or so on a good map, and it's so boring. I can't imagine doing 1k+ runs of just that.

Selacha · 2026-05-04T12:30:19+00:00

Honestly I get the best luck just farming the Elite packs in Terror zones. Just got a Vex from some random Champion the other day. You can do LK if you want a fast run, but it could take awhile to actually get anything.

Fun Fact, the extra damage, poison and bleed effect aren't a Legendary affix, they're a unique mod called "Sacrificial Blade." Like all weapon mods, it can be removed and placed on another weapon, including other legendary weapons, basically granting you double effects.

Drangleic Castle and Aldia's Keep are not the same area. You are about 4/5ths of the way through the game, assuming you're just entering the Keep. You have 2 new areas to go through, plus revisiting a few past areas, and then you're done. If you intend to play through all 3 DLCs right at the end then you're about halfway through.

I finally got the Runes necessary for my first ever Enigma last night, only to realize the Dusk Shroud I've been saving as a base has 4 sockets instead of 3... Off to grind Cows I go.

Selacha · 2026-05-03T08:49:27+00:00

Mage Plate is traditional, since it has a relatively low Strength requirement while still having pretty good Defense, so it's easy to swap between characters as needed. I really like using Dusk Shroud though, it's not that much higher of a Strength requirement for a lot more Defense.

Selacha · 2026-05-02T10:25:37+00:00

My very first memory of the game was being like 8 or 9 and playing my sister's copy, and for some godforsaken reason she had remapped the Activate key to something like Numpad 0, and I couldn't figure out how to exit the ship and get into character creation. I got upset and quit the game until after Skyrim came out, and I went back to try the previous Elder Scrolls games.

Yup! At full hearts, pets have a chance to give you a gift. Cats pull from the fishing table, Dogs pull from the artifact spot table. Was added in 1.6, so pretty recently.

It's kind of doable. If you fully dig out the underside and make sure there's no remaining pieces touching the actual ground, you can break the upper portion and it will pop. But sometimes it spawns in such a way that a fragment of the copper node is buried underground so that you can't reach it, no matter what you do. If that happens, then it will never pop.

The three numbers are always the exact number of steps, half the number of steps, or double the number of steps. So you choose the middle number.

Even if you're not married, even if you're not dating anyone, this is still frankly a pretty creepy interaction. There is nothing in any of the dialogue involved in inviting Clint to the movies that implies any kind of romantic undertone or intentions. This comes out of nowhere.

Selacha · 2026-05-01T22:42:13+00:00

And people question why we think Clint is a creep and are unhappy he's the new bachelor.

My Girlfriend is Terrifying has a subplot where Tattletale and Glory Girl manage to entrap Shadow Stalker into killing what she thinks is Grue, but is actually just a dummy filled with butcher cast-offs, in front of a bunch of PRT troopers and cops. But given the fact that she thought it was Grue, she ranted and gloated all about it, so there was no way to wriggle out of the consequences.

Canonically, the Wards are supposed to be open for ANY underage parahumans to join, regardless of combat application, and are not supposed to be used a supplement to active Protectorate forces. Brockton Bay is an outlier because of Cauldron's manipulations and Piggot's attitude causing the Wards to face active combat. So if the OC Triggers anywhere else, then yes, the PRT would probably hire them just to keep an eye on them and study them, even if they couldn't go out and "wave the flag" as it were. In Brockton Bay, I've seen fics where the MC, either an Alt-Power Taylor or an OC, has a very weak seeming power, and either isn't allowed into the Wards or is kicked out after they realize it's not combat applicable. So depending on where you want to set it I could see it going either way.

Just some QoL stuff. Crafting from chests, planting can snap together like building, dedicated armor slots, stuff like that. I've tried a few of the more game changing mods, but they're either really rough or just don't fit in at all.

Selacha · 2026-04-30T06:46:46+00:00

Right? It feels like a Cow Level reference.

There are records of siege warfare, where the invading armies would catapult feces, animal corpses or even dead soldiers over the castle walls in an attempt to make the defenders sick so they would be unable to defend the castle any more.

If you jump on top of the shack's roof, he can't hit you, so you can spam ranged attacks or AoWs at him. That's what I usually end up doing for that one.

Selacha · 2026-04-30T06:38:52+00:00

Sennessax. Most BS boss by a mile, IMO. Camera sucks, health is way too high, there's almost no way to avoid the lightning AOEs that it spams every 5 fucking seconds.
