===Leviathan attacks Florida===
If Leviathan attacks an alternate location, the dominos fall differently. The Brockton Bay Heroes (barring Velocity) go to aid in the fight. Chances are still notable that Battery, Assault, and Triumph die in the attack. Only a few Wards, specifically Aegis, Vista and Kid Win might possibly decide to attend, and if they do they have rather high chances of surviving. Armsmaster tries to prove himself with his combat engine, but the lack of data for local villain populations prevents him from setting them up to die against Leviathan. He decides to wait until things look grim and the combatant numbers thin before making an explicit request to fight Leviathan one-on-one. He holds his own and allows the others to regroup, and people back-up Armsmaster against Leviathan after the Endbringer K.Os the hero. Afterwards he gets a major amount of the credit in defeating the Endbringer, akin to Eidolon's victory against the Simurgh in Madison. Proving his worth as a leader and a member of the core Protectorate lineup, he does not lose his position as head of the Brockton Bay Protectorate like in the canon timeline. Dauntless, should he survive, gets his own team in a smaller city with a new department, a rising star in a growing department: the city in question would likely be St. Louis, Lexington, Pittsburgh, Stockton, or Anchorage.

Armsmaster asks for more cape heroes after the loss of Assault, Battery, and/or Triumph, and in light of the growing conflict from the Empire Eighty-Eight and ABB. The new capes would be free-floating ones in the vicinity, and likely to include [[Dovetail]], [[Adamant]] and [[Sere]]. New Wave, having joined the battle against Leviathan and suffered losses(does not matter who, besides Panacea and Glory Girl), might decide to move out of Brockton Bay in pursuit of new chances, possibilities, and public interest. They become a corporate team working with the Elite, but this and the loss of her family members puts greater pressure on Panacea. Exacerbated by the fact that there's less parental attention, she reaches her tipping point much sooner. If Brandish/Flashbang die, Lady Photon becomes leader of New Wave, and with Panacea as a new rising star inadvertently dragging her family along, she questions whether Brandish was right about the problems Panacea poses. Panacea is likely to join the Elite, due to being similar to Marquis and through them she can remember her dad.

Glory Girl, being impulsive, desiring to prove herself as a true heroine, and being in an Endbringer city with new people watching her performance, has a 50-50 chance of dying. Whether she lives or not dictates how Panacea goes. Panacea may revive a dead Glory Girl, either legit revival or create a parasite/internal puppet that lives under the skin and gets the heart pumping and the brain operating, creating a Panacea-dependent life sustaining system. Either way, she has to undo brain damage or create a facsimile of life. This becomes another force that pushes for success in their new situation, pulling Panacea up and away from normalcy and family. Gallant is a saving grace in this case, and may possibly join New Wave but is very unlikely. He becomes a remote figure offering guidance, trying to steer things away from the bad, and if Glory Girl and Panacea join the Elite he might offer advice and tip them off as to what the Elite is. Unfortunately, he would not be able to be there for Panacea's descent to darkness.

Most of the Undersiders do not participate in the Endbringer fight, though Tattletale aids as part of a fact-finding mission. Joining a team of Thinkers, she is able to provide some inklings on Endbringer makeup, which subtly alters the response and the offense against Endbringers in subsequent months and years, and may cause Tattletale to be targeted by the Simurgh, both more aggressively and much sooner than she did in New Dehli in canon. Tattletale has very, very poor chances of making it to Gold Morning. The remaining Undersiders continue under Coil's employ against Armsmaster's Protectorate, though the group takes on Trainwreck(who becomes an uneasy acquaintance of Rachel) and hired mercenaries from Boston and New York. Coil has the Undersiders target smaller settlements and cities around Brockton Bay while keeping the Travelers as his heavy hitters in the city itself. He goes for broke hiring mercenaries and has Über and Leet hold part of the city. The Undersiders become more distant and less 'together' being in the cities around Brockton, everyone acts in pairs or alone, but can still force the (stronger) PRT ENE to send members out and respond, which loosens the PRT's hold on the city.

The Slaughterhouse Nine arrive in the area, causing difficult isolated conflicts that become a crisis and further strains the PRT. Coil, through Dinah, leaks info on Jack Slash ending the world in order to increase the strain further. Dinah remains under Coil's control through threats and Master influence from hired mercenaries, but joins the Wards alongside Chariot under the pretext of wanting to stop the end of the world. Coil targets Gallant's family's business to distract Gallant, which adds to the pressure from Gallant's peripheral focus on New Wave, then kills the boy if Gallant doesn't respond to prompts to go elsewhere. Leaks provided by Kid Win and Skitter make Piggot aware of the moles and suspicious of Dinah, respectively, but struggles to actually leverage this. Her focus is divided between Brockton Bay and all of the neighboring territories facing coordinated attacks, her plate is full, and Armsmaster isn't cooperating.

Coil outs the E88 and causes them to inevitably split into "clans", with the Empire not having a foothold in the city due to Coil consistently winning engagements, the Travelers hitting them hard, and the PRT maintaing a strong initial presence. Kaiser leaves for Boston and allies with Accord, which in an indirect way gives Coil influence over Kaiser through his ties to Accord. The clans remain in Brockton, with the more aggressive white supremacists banding together but ending up beaten by various local forces and splintering. The elements (of Rune, Othala, Victor, Hookwolf, et al) that don't leave remain as solo agents. Hookwolf might drop the white supremacist thing entirely.

When the PRT is strained to breaking, Coil hires mercenary Capes to attack his own complex and free Echidna, engineering for her to cause controlled destruction to the city in much the same role Leviathan did in canon. Afterwards Piggot is accused of failing her duties, allowing Coil's persona of Thomas Calvert to take over a relatively strong PRT. Managing both the city and the Protectorate, Calvert stabilizes Brockton Bay and its flourishing cape population, and stamps out any rogue elements. Armsmaster finds out from Piggot enough to know the truth, but having never found humility or face inhumanity, he enslaves Dragon to his control and willing works with the villain because Coil put him on the world stage.

Skitter still works to fight against this system and engine much bigger than her. Reaching out to the disenfranchised, the people who lost their teams, scattered mercenaries and the heroes who broke away from the PRT, she forms a ragtag group striving against this reality that Coil has engineered. In the end, she bands together with the remaining Undersiders who survived the Slaughterhouse Nine, and works with Saint to defeat Armsmaster (taking away Dragon at a pivotal moment) and attempts to topple Coil.<ref name="LB">[https://redd.it/4arfdp Speculation by Wildbow on Reddit]</ref>
