So, sword lady is part of the scouting crew

they are bored, investigating atmospheric and solar disturbance. there's like 10 of them?

suddenly, boom, the Threat shows up. No powers revealed yet. He smashes a couple guys with their car, it gets set on fire. he throws it at Swordswoman, she slices it in half cause she is badass. She probably thinks this thing is no big deal, she can handle it. Easy.

The many other creatures on the Threat haven't acclimated yet. They're dormant. She climbs her way up it with relative ease, only to get gobbled up at the very end.

--
So, the scout guys run away. Their leader just got killed. They try to call for back up, but their communications array is down. As the Threat begins to get a foothold in the environment, they flee to their nearest outpost. They inform their outpost of what they describe as "an unprecedented threat", or something like that, and that's where the name comes from.

The outpost sends for more help, but sends some transport trucks with infantry in them to battle the Threat, while some messengers send word to the more powerful bases closer to the city. This will conveniently explain the waves of reinforcements that arrive later on.

She will have been better than him so could have won easy if she wasn't caught off guard, probably the best warrior there at the time besides maybe a few at the capital, but she thought it was boring just hanging out there. Despite being super badass she has an irrational fear of gross things that nobody knows about because she always covers it up and makes excuses for leaving the area. She couldn't do that here because the change happened so suddenly she froze up mid swing.

She'll probably have some interesting backstory. Maybe ahe had a bounty hunter son who also hates gross things but automatically destroys them on instinct. XD Don't know if phobias are hereditary, though, so that's just a joke for now. May have such a character who's not her son.

Sounds like a good start. We could probably start the IC while planning further.

Okay, so, Swordswoman is super awesome warrior, get's killed due to something stupid. That happens a surprising amount of time in real life and real mythology, too. So it fits.

Okay. So...
You go first, I guess. Set the scene.

I'll have to come up with what the UNT scout vehicles would be like and provide at least a decent description.

I spent 15 minutes staring at a blank screen so decided on a new strategy of posting various sentences I'd like to have in the post and expanding off of them, like the intro to the hero. I will have the post up until a moment before the Threat comes out.

Rome wasn't built in a day. I'll try to do better later. My post may take 30 or so minutes if I type normal.

I've finally hit my stride. Just maybe 5 to 10 minutes more. I got the later half of the post complete.
