=== Villains ===
Not many specifics are known about the situation in Seattle, although the city has dealt with a hive [[Tinker]] for several years, fighting drones and implanted henchmen.<ref name="call">“We’ll see who we can tap. Washington capes aren’t siegebreakers. Vancouver is, well, it’s not the largest team, and they have their problems. Seattle… hm. They’ve got this hive tinker they’ve been dealing with for a few years now, drones, implanted henchmen… they have experience with this sort of thing. Let me call Seattle. I’ll call you back in a minute.”<br/><br/>He hangs up without waiting for a response. -

I won’t say any more, I can’t. Look, the capes you’re getting are Snubnose, Fume, and Gasconade. They’re already on their way to the jet. They’re yours for five days to a week, depends. If the situation calls for it and Seattle doesn’t complain, maybe longer, though you might owe Director Foote if he’s going that far. He’s a good guy.” -

These bullets, on striking a surface, produce a cloud of sulphurous gas. The gas has a smell comparable to rotten eggs or skunk, and produces an immediate, albeit mild burning sensation, particularly around the mucus glands. -

On stakeouts, she has displayed a peculiar sort of patience, capable of spending hours in silence and stillness, entertaining herself with only the thoughts in her head. She is alert throughout, however, and is capable of springing to action at a moment’s notice. Teammates who manage to get past her abrasive nature and odd personality quirks report that her company isn’t entirely unpleasant. -

Gasconade, however, merits special rules and conditions in all respects. With this in mind, he presently maintains twenty-two hour workdays, patrolling for twenty of those hours, primarily gathering intelligence and scaring the local criminal population. -

These sparks, on contact with a surface, imbue it with an antigravity effect, and ricochet off surfaces already imbued with the effect, forcefully enough to push objects. The range, however, is rather short, at about eight feet. -

Uninterested in what she terms the politics of the PRT, she takes particular pride in showmanship, leveraging her power to allow for dramatic maneuvers, preferring to do so for cameras. Snubnose is said to be universally loathed by the villains in Seattle and the surrounding area. - [[PRT: Department Sixty-Four|Department Sixty Four]], [https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/14274744 PRT Quest threat ii p47]</ref>

==History==
===Background===
On April 1st, 2003, Seattle was attacked by [[Leviathan]]. Seattle survived the attack.<ref>Lausanne, December 30th, 2002.  Simurgh.<br/>Seattle, April 1st, 2003.  Leviathan.<br/>London, August 12th, 2003.  Simurgh. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/06/22 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 24.x]]</ref>
===Post-[[Battle against Echidna]]===
As part of the fallout of the event Nutcracker left the PRT's organisation, but remained active in Seattle.

The protectorate team dealt with a hive tinker in the area.

[[Dan Seneca]] worked in Seattle's FBI field office before becoming a [[PRT]] Director.<ref>"Good morning," you address them. "My name is Dan Seneca. I've already had questions about my background. I started out as a lawyer, prosecutor for the District Attorney's office in Erie County, New York. I joined the Seattle, Washington field office after my acceptance into the F.B.I., and worked there for the past decade. I worked alongside every agency you could think of and many you couldn't, and in the course of that work, I met the man who is second in command of the PRT, Deputy Chief Director Reinhold. He offered me this position, and I was happy to take it. - [[PRT: Department Sixty-Four|Department Sixty Four]], [https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/12976751 PRT Quest threat i p8]</ref>
===[[PRT: Department Sixty-Four]]===
In an alternate timeline, Seneca would indirectly ask for their PRT department's aid,<ref name="call" /> receiving three capes.<ref>“Dan, Seattle doesn’t have anything major going on. They’re busy rebuilding and the capes are restless. We’re sending three capes your way. We’re also- you remember your training for the Director position?” - [[PRT: Department Sixty-Four|Department Sixty Four]], [https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/14274744 PRT Quest threat ii p47]</ref>

They eventually had to return.
