New York is the most populous city in the United States.

History

Behemoth Attack

Repelled the Endbringer with manageable damage

Golden Morning

New York’s forcefields went up slightly too early, and were knocked down by Scion's attack. A third of the city was destroyed, with 2.2 million estimated deaths<ref name="27.2">Extinction 27.2</ref>. This was largly laid at Saint's feet for not activating the force-fields correctly.

Climate

Temperate, windy due to the affect of the buildings on the wind currents

Known residents

• The New York Protectorate Team
  • Legend (leader)<ref>Legend – Leader of the Protectorate. Runs the team based in New York. Is one of the best, if not the best ‘flying artillery’ capes, with flight and unsurpassed versatility and power from the lasers he can emanate from his body. Among other things, his lasers can turn corners, fork into multiple lasers, pass through walls and freeze or ignite his targets. He has recently left the Protectorate’s Triumvirate. - Cast (In Depth)</ref>
  • Chevalier (leader)<ref>Weaver spoke up, “I noted Shatterbirds and Burnscars leaving, some Damsels, bunch of others I didn’t catch, but they had weapons and I’m thinking Winter or Crimson. There were some I parsed as hostages, but it’s only in retrospect that I’m thinking they were Nice Guys.”
    
    “The second group made their way to New York.”
    
    “Bonesaw and a captive Nilbog that’s apparently rigged to create things on demand,” Weaver said. “Crawlers, Breeds and a handful of others I didn’t identify.”
    
    Chevalier reacted to that, flinching.
    
    His city, Golem thought. - Excerpt from Interlude 26a</ref><ref name="prism2"/>
  • Prism<ref>Prism and Battery went after Mannequin. Prism split into three copies of herself, complete with fireproof suit, closing in as Battery used her power to cross the distance and trade blows. I was only peripherally aware of Prism, given how she was based in New York, but seeing her in action reminded me of how she operated. - Excerpt from Prey 14.6</ref> (second in command)<ref name="prism2">“In the lead, we have Prism, second in command of the New York team,” Defiant told me.
    
    Prism’s lips flattened into a tight line as she looked at me. We’d met, at the Mayor’s house. She’d been one of Legend’s people. I supposed that Chevalier would have wanted someone who knew the city and the routines as his second in command. - Excerpt from Drone 23.1</ref>
  • Adamant (formerly)<ref>I studied Adamant and Sere while I waited. Adamant, naturally, wore a metallic costume, featuring metal bands and panels that were loosely linked together by chains, fit over a black bodysuit. He’d been at the fight against Leviathan, if I remembered right. He was a member of Legend’s team in New York. Or he had been. Legend was gone now. - Excerpt from Chrysalis 20.2</ref>
  • Astrologer<ref>He faked a high society woman’s laugh, where the laugh was said as much as it was uttered. A cape nearby, one I recognized as Astrologer from the New York team, shot us a dirty look, before she returned to calling down projectiles from the sky. - Excerpt from Scourge 19.7</ref>
  • Cache<ref>Cache – A New York cape working under Legend, Cache wears a black costume, and can force objects into an extradimensional space, or remove them from one. - Cast</ref>
  • Ursa Aurora<ref>Ursa Aurora – A member of the New York Protectorate, Ursa Aurora creates animated forcefields in the rough shape of bears. - Cast</ref>

• Wards
  • Jouster
  • Shelter
  • Flechette (formerly)<ref>Flechette, Lily – A crossbow-wielding cape that originally hailed from New York, joining the Brockton Bay Wards as a temporary member in the wake of recent disasters. A Japanese-American girl, she wears a deep purple costume with a visor, quiver, and narrow, platinum-white armor panels that flare out at the upper edges and taper at the bottom – mimicking the vague shape of an arrow or darts. - Cast (In Depth)</ref>

• The Adepts
• The Teeth

• Bakuda (formerly)<ref>Armsmaster nodded, “Not surprising. She’s new. What we know about her is limited. She made her first appearance and demonstration of her powers by way of a drawn out terrorism campaign against Cornell University. Lung apparently recruited her and brought her to Brockton Bay after her plans were foiled by the New York Protectorate. This is… something of a concern.” - Excerpt from Gestation 1.6</ref>
• Hookwolf (formerly, rumored)<ref>Rumor had it that Hookwolf, back in the day, had been one of the top fighters in a parahuman fighting ring in New York. He’d grown greedy, killed the man that ran it for access to the vault with the night’s earnings, and had made a good number of enemies in the process. It had been a group of white supremacists local to that area that had given him shelter and support, happy to side with him because the man he’d killed had been an ‘acceptable target’. Maybe the ideology was real for Hookwolf from day one, maybe it was an act that had become reality when he found he enjoyed having people celebrate him for enacting his most twisted impulses and racking up a body count. Either way, I suspected that there were few things he wouldn’t do for his ‘Empire’ nowadays. - Excerpt from Buzz 7.7</ref>
• March

Trivia

• The Travelers visited New York at one point, and were likely involved with forty individuals disappearing overnight.<ref>“I don’t know. Could they? Yes. And that possibility is too dangerous, especially given what Regent can do. The Undersiders do not pull their punches. The Travelers, oddly enough, are more moderate, but they do have sixteen kills under their belt, due in large part to the sheer power at their disposal.”
  
  “Let’s not forget the incident in New York,” Legend said. “Forty individuals disappeared in one night. Investigation confirmed the Travelers were occupying a nearby location. Chances are good that they were involved.” - Excerpt from Interlude 13</ref><ref>Tattletale spoke up, “The Travelers have two other members who don’t see much action. Oliver handles their day-to-day stuff. Finds and prepares places for them to settle down, gets food, looks after Noelle. Noelle…”
  
  “New York,” Miss Militia interrupted. “She’s the one that’s responsible for the disappearance of those forty people?”
  
  “I wouldn’t be surprised,” Tattletale said. - Excerpt from Queen 18.3</ref>
