Appearance
March is a small woman who wears a military-style uniform and a rabbit mask. She also carries a rapier.<ref>The woman who faced him was petite, and wore a rabbit mask with a uniform that looked like a soldier from the 1800s. A rapier dangled from her waist.
“March,” he said.
Wordless, she invited him to come in. - Excerpt from Sentinel 9.3</ref>
Abilities and Powers
March is a grab-bag cape, and has access to a weaker version of Flechette's power to infuse objects with an effect that would sever their attachment to most physical laws.<ref>S/he did get Sting lite. Remember, Sting is a 'shark' of a shard. Can't really do much to improve or vary it. - Spacebattles post by Wildbow.</ref>
Equipment
As she carries a rapier she likely imbues it with her "sting' effect.
History
Background
March was part of the same group trigger as Flechette, taking place three year prior story start in New York.<ref name="nemesis">Foil is 17 and a senior. She triggered 3 years prior to her appearance, as part of a group trigger in New York. One of her old nemeses, March, was another part of that group trigger. - Private message by Wildbow, posted on Spacebattles.</ref> March is an old nemesis of Flechette, and continues to operate in New York as a rather persistent villain.<ref>“Another pattern we will be exploring is the apparent effect of multiple trigger events occurring in the same time and place. There is a very strong correlation between coinciding trigger events and individuals displaying three or more powers rather than one or two predominant ones.”
“Hey, Flechette,” Kid Win called across the room, “You’ve got a bunch of powers, right?”
She turned in her seat, “Sure.”
“Anyone else get powers at the same time you did?”
“Not that I know of.”
“Could someone nearby have gotten their powers, without you knowing? Way things played out? Did any capes show up around the same time as you?”
Flechette frowned, “Yeah. A rather persistent villain.”
“Worth thinking about.” - Excerpt from Sentinel 9.3</ref>
Post-Gold Morning
March was able to survive Gold Morning and currently seeking out other cluster capes for unknown reasons. They were able to reach out to recently triggered of5 and offered information and assistance with their unfortunate group trigger dynamic.<ref>Glow-worm P.4</ref><ref name="R1.4">Private Message Exchanges: Coded Name, Of5, the group chat
of5 is reached out to by someone with a long, coded name, with a coded message. of5 asks the people from the larger group convo about it: their female friend suggested it's a bot. After briefly wondering if it's 'S' (dismissed as S "Isn't that bad with computers") they're told to ignore it and move on.
But the person from the coded message starts speaking in plain english. of5's searches & comments on the broken multi-trigger articles have been noticed. Coded-name goes through all the instances of multi-triggers they've heard of, working out who of5 could be, and decides that of5 is the 'runt' from 'the mall'.
- Coded-name already talked to someone else from the mall and was turned down. Lucky for of5, coded-name says, because of5 will need all the help they can get, and coded-name is offering that help.
- The mall group has a woman, a man, and two boys, four individuals. Three members of the group are coordinating to go after one of the two boys, the runt. The woman is hiring mercenary help for the deed, and the man is talking to an information broker named Tattletale to find the runt.
- Coded-name remarks 'a case of Kiss/Kill like I never saw and I don’t think they’re reaching for the chapstick.' - and the response from of5 is 'You’re wrong / It isn’t Kiss/Kill.'
- But, of5 says, they're open to assistance. - Synopsis by Wildbow</ref>
Early-Ward
Rain Finally reached out to march when he had no where else to go.<ref>Interlude 5d II</ref>
Trivia
- Her name and costume suggest the March Hare from Alice in Wonderland.
