Campanile, Brazier, Shuffle and Gauss will be a short distance away, but they won’t engage unless this goes belly-up.  This is your show.  You and the Wards.  Quite a few people hoping you guys can pull this off.  A handful hoping you fail.”

====Post-[[Battle against Echidna|Echidna]]====
After recruiting a new member they reordered into a more effective group.<ref>Actually the Chicago Wards had a pretty concrete team dynamic. Three heavy hitters to provide cover and protection for their long ranged combatant. The members of the Chicago Wards who weren’t present only build on that to a degree.<br/><br/>But the Wards as a whole are more of a first step – it’d be more likely that a Protectorate team would move members around or exchange members with other teams as needed (such as how Vegas formed its team) to fit a certain role or dynamic, or to fill holes in the team makeup. The team members who aren’t about to move (ties to the city, for example) may have more trouble moving up the ladder, but the team works around them. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/05/28/drone-23-2/#comment-24818 Comment] by [[Wildbow]] on [[Drone 23.2]]</ref>

==Villains==
===The Folk===
{{main|The Folk}}
A "villain" group that makes sure everyone can get along.

=== The Royals ===
Villain group of significant importance.<ref name=":0">“I’ve been sort of enjoying the peace, the fact that the Protectorate are dealing with the meanest bastards around, the Folk, the Royals, the Condemned.  But I was telling myself it came down to the Endbringer fight.  That I’d participate, I’d wake up, ''fight''.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/07/02/scarab-25-2/ Excerpt] from [[Scarab 25.2]]</ref>

=== The Condemned ===
Villain group of significant importance.<ref name=":0" />

===Unnamed Asian Organization===
Unknown semi-criminal organization.<ref name="25.3 e2">They had a different plan in mind.  They reversed direction and headed straight for a restaurant with a sign showing a gold dragon against a red background.<br/><br/>“Grace,” I said.  “Wei shu wu?  Does typing it into the computer turn up anything?”<br/><br/>“''A cover business for a group with affiliations to the Folk,''” Revel volunteered.<br/><br/>“We safe to harass them, or-”<br/><br/>''“No.  They have people with powers, and that’s beyond the scope of this manhunt.”'' - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/07/06/scarab-25-3/ Excerpt] from [[Scarab 25.3]]</ref>

===Background===
The Folk was a decade-long fixture of the villain scene.<ref name="25.2 e1">Simply making sure we were in the right place at the right time, luring a local power into a fight, with  a plan already in mind…<br/>[...]<br/>“Tecton,” I called out, as my eyes fell on a portrait of a supervillain with a mask of an upside-down face.  An established power, located at the city’s edge for nearly ten years.<br/>''Too established?''  I didn’t want to set another ABB fiasco in motion. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/07/02 Excerpt] from [[Scarab 25.2]]</ref><ref name="25.3 e1"> - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/07/06 Excerpt] from [[Scarab 25.3]]</ref>
