Beginning of Issue
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Mind's Eye|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: Phaeton students, this is The Abyss.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Mind's Eye|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: I am told I should ask your forgiveness for this intrusion into your mind...

But this is an emergency and you are needed in downtown Culverton.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Crocodile Tears|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: The area is under siege by packs of wild animals.

We suspect this might be Pesticide losing control of his minions.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Crocodile Tears|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: Your only assignment is to aid with the subdual and containment of the animals.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Mind's Eye|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: Should there be something more nefarious afoot let someone more experienced deal with it.

Good hunting.

It's Going To Bring You Down

Beginning of Fight: Feral Dogs
Feral Dogs (1)
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Feral Dogs|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|link=LoH/issues/Welcome to the Jungle/missions/It's Going To Bring You Down/Feral Dogs (1)]] The Abyss: Be careful...the old adage about barks and bites does not apply in this case.
Beginning of Fight: Sunderlings
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Sunderlings|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: There have been a string of robberies around down.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Dog Attack|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: It would appear you and the feral creatures are fighting the same battle.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Sunderlings|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: Why don't you lend them a hand?
Beginning of Fight: Albino Crocs
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Brain Drain|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: Albino crocodiles attacking bank robbers can only mean one thing...

...our old "friend" Pesticide is trying to clean up the town again.

Beginning of Fight: Sunderlings
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Sunderlings|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: I am afraid you are surrounded by dumb animals on all sides.

It is the smarter animals lurking to pick off the bloodied winners that concern me.

Beginning of Fight: Trebuchet
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Trebuchet|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: Speaking of smarter animals. This is Trebuchet. A mercenary emergent who uses his powers for whoever pays him the most.

Trebuchet: You have two options. Fight me or run...

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Trebuchet|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Trebuchet: But you should know this...

I can hurl an SUV into a compact parking spot from two blocks away.
You should probably fight.

We Got Your Disease

Beginning of Fight: Nest of Rats
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Nest of Rats|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: Pesticide can talk to the animals...kind of like a vigilante Dr. Doolittle.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Nest of Rats|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: The problem is he has a short attention span. Once the bad guys are behind bars...

The rats ... and worse ... are left to their own devices.

Beginning of Fight: Feral Dogs
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Feral Dogs|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: Pesticide is suspected of ransacking a spay and neuter clinic downtown.

He accused them of thinning his ranks.

Beginning of Fight: Grizzly Bear
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Grizzly Bear|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: Dimetrodon will be happy to know that you have located his missing sparring partner.

I am not sure how happy the bear is going to feel about this.

Beginning of Fight: Albino Croc
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Albino Croc|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: If you ever wondered what happened to that baby reptile your mother flushed down the toilet...

It ended up at Pesticide's sewer grate.

Beginning of Fight: Pesticide
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Pesticide|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Abyss: Ah...the man behind the monsters you have been fighting all day.

Pesticide: Are you one of those students who have been hurting us?

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Pesticide|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Pesticide: Are you going to use your powers to help fight the vermin that infest the city?

Or do you use your powers for personal gain?

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Pesticide|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Pesticide: We will have to test you to see if you can help me in our work...

Or if you need to be eradicated like a common pest!

End of Fight: Pesticide
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Neighborhood Watch|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Pesticide: We can put you to good use.

There is too much vermin and not enough time.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Neighborhood Watch|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Pesticide: When people live in the gutters they talk near open sewer grates.

We hear things.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Neighborhood Watch|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Pesticide: We have no time for the Home School but we heard...

That there is going to be an infestation by the waterfront.

Everything You Want

Beginning of Fight: Quickhit
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Greater Grind|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Quickhit: You are one of those Phaeton students, huh?

I'm Quickhit. I am the unofficial leader of the Home School.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Greater Grind|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Quickhit: We can take care of ourselves.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Greater Grind|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Quickhit: Why would you think you could help us?

I am willing to bet you can't even beat us.

Beginning of Fight: Southside Sentry
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Turning Tides|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Southside Sentry: I am the Southside Sentry... used to be with the Upstarts.

Now I work alone here on the waterfront.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Turning Tides|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Southside Sentry: Fighting criminals and dealing with the mischievous Home School.

Hey...How do I know you aren't one of those punks?

End of Fight: Southside Sentry
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Lunge|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Southside Sentry: You wanna know about The Home School?

Buncha spoiled brats if you ask me.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Lunge|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Southside Sentry: They are all the kids of famous emergents and have been using their powers since before they could walk.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Lunge|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Southside Sentry: They may need your help...

...but good luck getting them to take it.

Beginning of Fight: #Z03MG
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Z03MG|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] #Z03MG: I know, I know! It's pretty exciting to see the actual #Z03MG.

Make sure to use the hashtag if you tweet about how bad I beat you.

Beginning of Fight: Maser
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Maser|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Maser: I can't imagine how awful it must be going to a school every day...

Name's Maser.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Try Again|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Maser: I spent most of my childhood confined to a bubble to contain my gaseous form.

Until Aloysius Zeroth built me this baller suit.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Try Again|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Maser: I don't like people telling me what to do.

Heck...I don't like people.

Beginning of Fight: Makeshift
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Makeshift|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Makeshift: This is the part of the awkward superpowered encounter where we each realize the other one is not so bad.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Makeshift|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Makeshift: We can still fight though, right?

Hunger For What You See

Beginning of Area: Hunger For What You See
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Southside Sentry|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Southside Sentry: Hey kid. I don't know what is going on but I need your help.

Buildings are on fire and you can't swing a fist without hitting a mercenary.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Southside Sentry|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Southside Sentry: It seems like someone is trying to keep us distracted from what is really happening.

Keep your wits about you. Something fishier than usual is going on.

Beginning of Fight: Torrent
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Lay of the Land|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Torrent: Everything is going according to plan.

Trebuchet: Except for that Phaeton student I tussled with the other day.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Lay of the Land|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Trebuchet: Torrent, you keep 'em busy while The Notch and I do our thing.
Beginning of Fight: Trebuchet
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Trebuchet|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Trebuchet: Nice try but while you and I are fighting, The Notch is gonna nab Maser and "borrow" his suit.

There are a lot of organizations that will pay good money to reverse engineer Zeroth's technology.

Beginning of Fight: The Notch
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Notch|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Notch: If you need someone done you have to do 'em yourself.

On the bright side, with Trebuchet and Torrent out of the picture...

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Notch|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Notch: The Notch gets to keep it all. Once I deal with you and grab Maser.
End of Fight: The Notch
Aloysius Zeroth: I am Aloysius Zeroth.

I am in your debt. Maser's parents are close friends of mine.

Aloysius Zeroth: They are very happy that their son is safe.

But I fear that Maser may have been the distraction.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Found and Lost|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Aloysius Zeroth: A shipping container was stolen while all this was going on.

And the technology within is potentially more deadly than anything in Maser's suit.

Very Hard To Please

Beginning of Fight: Sunderlings
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Sunderlings|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Sunderlings: Awww c'mon!

They said make a distraction. Not get our butts kicked again!

Beginning of Fight: Kindlings (1)
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Simple Tools|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Little Susie Homewrecker: While all the children are playing, this is a perfect time to burn down those monstrosities on the waterfront.
Beginning of Fight: Kindlings (2)
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Simple Tools|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Little Susie Homewrecker: Why can't they leave the waterfront alone? Do they think I like burning these down?

Okay, maybe I like it a little bit.

Beginning of Fight: Little Susie Homewrecker
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Little Susie Homewrecker|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Little Susie Homewrecker: I have no quarrel with the Phaeton Project.

The name is Little Susie Homewrecker.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Little Susie Homewrecker|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Little Susie Homewrecker: Yes, the "bad girl" that broke up The Upstarts.

I just want to stop these developers from obstructing the waterfront with their eyesore buildings.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Little Susie Homewrecker|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Little Susie Homewrecker: So you can just head on back to your school and leave me to my work. Mmm'kay?

*Sigh*
Nobody ever understands me.
