A Grab-Bag Cape is a cape that is created when 'multiple triggers' happen at the same time.

Overview

Though dealing with trigger events this is a seperate article as it deals with some spycology and sociology.

The term itself it rather straight forward, Capes termed 'grab-bag's display three or more powers that work together, rather than one or two predominant ones<ref name="9.3">Sentinel 9.3</ref>. This does not earn the Grab-bag a trump rating as they will always have the same powers(unless the trump power is part of the 'grab')<ref>Discussion on Spacebattles</ref>. Rather the powers are copied aounf individuals manifesting inn a way that assists the expression of the main power. some comments

 Multiple triggers are actually the endgame of the cycle, prior to the reabsorption and collapse.  When virtually all individuals in the setting are parahumans, connected to shards, the introduction of multiple-triggers serves to stress-test powers and compare and contrast the smaller powers.
-On grab-bag powers (added Nerva's quote so it makes sense):
-Nervaqus987 said: ↑
-Not really.
-Trumps are people who's powers "add, remove, complicate, and compound."
-Grab Bag capes are just that. People who have a grab bag of powers, but even with that grab bag, they don't have a Trump rating because they always have the same powers.*
-*Although they may have a Trump rating if one of their powers interacts with other powers somehow.
-Wildbow said: ↑
-Nervaqus987 has it right.
-See the lecture in Clockblocker's interlude chapter for more on grab-bags.
-Said interlude bit:
 “Trigger events are a crucial element for study, because the timing, nature and spread of these emerging powers may provide a clue as to where these parahuman abilities come from. More women than men have powers, for example, and there are more powers in undeveloped countries than there are in industrialized ones – Some of you may remember me mentioning this fact in the 101 class, when I was talking about the witch burnings in The People’s Republic of Uganda.
