You do know that Bitch left the north end a while ago? How would you even miss the fact that you haven’t heard howling in the last while? If you’re not leaving the house, why don’t you take a picture of yourself by this high end generator of yours? Because it doesn’t exist.
You fuckers make me sick, like you can pretend to be all cool by being one of the survivors, who stuck it out through the Endbringer attack, the Nine and the gang wars. But you left. Your mommy and daddy took you out of town, and you’re pretending you stuck it out, that you’re here when you’re not, all for a stupid internet badge and a peek at the private board.

Word’s out, and we’re waiting for the Protectorate to give a statement before we get further details. Legend is stepping down, citing family reasons. He’s already on record saying that he intends to offer his aid in crisis events, but will no longer be leading the Protectorate. His successor has not yet been named.

It should totally be Eidolon.

They haven’t picked a successor yet because it’s a little more complicated than picking the strongest hero. They need someone who works on a number of levels, as a leader (both in terms of day to day paperwork and management and in the field), an ambassador (there’s no less than 30 teams around the world that work with the Protectorate to some degree), a powerhouse (can’t be weak or you won’t be respected) and from a marketing standpoint.

Can’t be Eidolon. He’s strong, but he’s not a leader. There’s a ton of references to people meeting him at conventions or cape wives meeting him at functions. I won’t say he’s an asshole, though some have said he rubbed them the wrong way, but people definitely don’t walk away from meeting him with that universal “Oh my god he’s so nice!” reaction that they have with Legend.

Not to mention that there’s rumors Alexandria or Eidolon might step down. There’s a lot of animosity being directed at them from certain groups. Look at this link and this one. The monsters in the Protectorate have almost all left. Only one who stayed, I think, are Hunch and Polish. I’ve been thinking it’s another Bastion incident. Someone higher-up says something racist or offensive, the Protectorate pulls strings to try and cover it up, but offended people are still offended. Run off to make their own team.

I don’t know whether to be sad about it or not. Weld’s awesome, and it’s great he gets to run his own team, but I was hoping he’d become a big figure in the Protectorate. Why be a big fish in a small pond when you could be a big fish in a big pond?

We don’t know how big the Irregulars are going to get.

But they’re never going to be the Protectorate big.
