Norfair Community Center Attack marks the first fight in Ward and the failed debut of Tempera's team.
Prelude
With Scion two years dead, public resentment is growing. Cape activity has been happening out of the public eye, and people are starting to question why they even have heroes anymore. With the amnesty, the former villain Fume Hood tries to be a hero and joins the Norfair Neighborhood Heroes; however, the public connects her with her past as a villain, and they're unhappy, going so far as to hire people to target her. <ref>“I won’t force you,” he said. “People connected the new heroine Fume Hood to her old persona. They’re upset. Enough that they’re hiring people to kick up a fuss, and we don’t know just who or what’s going to happen.”
[...]
“Apple girl is getting a lot of serious hate thrown her way online. If you can tell us anything about how she might react to this situation, or anything else, that’d help.” - Excerpt from Daybreak 1.1</ref> With potential trouble at the hero group's upcoming debut at the Norfair Community Center, a local Patrol Block decides to send in a squad to help keep the peace at the new hero group's debut, led by Victoria Dallon. Though the patrol block's captain Gilpatrick disapproved of the plan, two students were included in Victoria's squad to keep tabs on her without her knowledge, after her secret status as a parahuman was discovered.<ref>“Jasper said you guessed why I sent those students with you.”
“Yeah,” I said. I climbed to my feet.
“I’m especially sorry for that,” he said. “If it was up to me, I wouldn’t have ever tested you like that. It wasn’t wholly up to me.”
“Who?” I asked.
“Everyone,” he said. “No-one. It’s complicated. Wardens and the hero teams are being pressured to be mindful of who is out there, touching base, and they reached out to some of the other patrol groups with concerns. They wanted to coordinate, so teenagers wouldn’t be out interviewing or exposing themselves to anyone dangerous. School got to talking, and they got into CYA mode.” - Excerpt from Daybreak 1.7</ref>
The patrol squad arrives, and Victoria introduces herself to the Norfair Neighborhood Heroes, composed of Fume Hood, Crystalclear, Longscratch, and their leader Tempera. The group decides last minute to cancel the event, but as the protest builds outside and the group's thinker Crystalclear reports a bad feeling about the future, Victoria agrees to stay.<ref>Daybreak 1.2</ref>
Battle
A bus crash goes wrong.
The battle becomes a protracted siege as a civilian who is a Parahuman reveals herself and messes with everyone's plans.
No name civilian shoots Fume Hood.
Aftermath
The public pressure is let out. Fume Hood gets sympathy. Despite saving the situation, Victoria is fired after being outed as a cape, though Gilpatrick promises to vouch for her if necessary; she is forced to look for work elsewhere.<ref>“You know I can’t keep you on the staff,” he said.
I nodded.
There it was.
Fuck.
I hadn’t been super attached to the job, but… fuck.
“Using power on kids, the contention about possible conflict of interest, undue influence, danger. I think things will stay at that, I don’t think it’ll follow you.”
I nodded.
“There’s a dim chance of a student claiming emotional distress because of your aura and pursuing things in court, I’ve already talked to one officer to get them on board and we’ll get something in writing. I’ll vouch for you and for the events as Jasper described them, one hundred percent, if you end up needing someone to stand for you. None of this was you.” - Excerpt from Daybreak 1.7</ref> The ball is rolling again.
It established Snag's reputation and allowed him to draw on support to go after his main target.<ref>Shade 4.3</ref>
