Editing Las Vegas (section)

== History ==
===Background===
The city has fallen into a vicious cycle exists where a team of villains will pull a successful job, cause catastrophic damage, and see venues shut down. This encourages more villains to appear and do the same. Because of this, the strip is slowly dying.<ref>Rime shook her head.  “No.  The strip is dying.  Every successful job the villains pull causes catastrophic damage, sees venues shutting down.  More villains arrive, hearing of the last group’s success, or because there’s room for them, and they settle in the more desolate areas.  The problem feeds itself, gets worse.  This building is a fortress and a prison because that’s what the city needs, that’s how bad things have gotten.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/05/28/drone-23-2/ Excerpt] from [[Drone 23.2]]</ref>
===Post-[[Battle against Echidna|Echidna]]===
After [[Cauldron]] was revealed to the world, Pretender killed a government thinker in order to either cover his tracks, or as a favour to Cauldron. This got him arrested.

The rest of the Vegas Protectorate went rogue in an attempt to free him.

Despite this, they still took part in the battle of [[New Delhi]].

===[[Gold Morning]]===
The remaining members of the team infiltrated the [[Cauldron Compound]], in order to find out what happened to [[Doormaker]].

It is unknown how the city of Las Vegas fared though the West coast had been hit.
