Editing Nix (section)

===Story Start===
Nix would eventually join the Las Vegas Protectorate, it was possible that like her sister she was brainwashed and placed there deliberately.<ref name="SB1">Cauldron's habit was to take all of the human experiments that turned out well, brainwash them, and then place them in larger organizations to support said organizations, fighting the natural tendency for parahumans to seek conflict (and thus making forming large committed groups hard). Shamrock could well have been slated for the Protectorate, Red Gauntlet, the Suits, or even the Nemesis program (being brainwashed with an auto-lose trigger against one client who paid a good sum, so that client could get a better position and climb faster in rep). - [https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/15078112 Comment by] [[Wildbow]] on Spacebattles</ref><ref name="15.z">She stepped into the brightly lit corridors of Cauldron’s testing laboratory and strode down to the cells.<br/><br/>Thirty cells, filled with subjects.  Thirty-one now.  The cells didn’t appear to have doors, but the individuals within were all too aware of the dangers of stepping beyond the perimeters of their cells, or of trying to harass Alexandria as she strode by.<br/><br/>Only two-thirds of them were monstrous, affected by the formulas.  Others would go free with alterations to their memories.  Some would have fatal weaknesses inserted into their psyches, reason to hesitate at a crucial moment against a certain foe. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/11/08 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 15.z]]</ref>
