History

Background

Cauldron had been releasing Deviation cases for various ends throughout the world. Many were used as villains to prop-up certain heroes so they gained in reputation quicker. As such they gained a reputation for villainy among the public.

Post-Echidna

Originally made of protectorate capes, many of whom found themselves passed over for promotions and generally discriminated against because of their appearance. They are largely independent but were able to draw upon Protectorate resources.<ref name="19.y">Interlude 19.y</ref> Most of the monstrous capes who had been members of the Protectorate left to join them,<ref>Weld’s popularity and time in the spotlight made him a figure of interest when, following undisclosed events in Brockton Bay, he turned from the established heroes and brought vast majority of the monstrous capes in the Protectorate and Wards with him. - Excerpt from Glow-worm P.8</ref> although some, such as Hunch, chose to stay.<ref> The monsters in the Protectorate have almost all left. Only one who stayed, I think, are Hunch and Polish. - Excerpt from Interlude 19 (Donation Bonus #2)</ref>

The Irregulars reached out to C53s across the world, and their numbers swelled.<ref>He reached out to monstrous parahumans both American and international, and he kept his together while carrying out deeds for the camera. Maintaining a group of such size isn’t an easy task when its numbers are swelling like his group’s did. - Glow-worm P.8</ref>

In the period when new Endbringers appeared following the defeat of Behemoth, their numbers dropped somewhat, although they continued recruiting.<ref>Even the defeat of Behemoth or the appearance of the new Endbringers didn’t serve to bring Weld back into the fold. If anything, Weld seemed to note that his team’s numbers were dropping. He and the monstrous capes serving under him stopped making as many public appearances. We don’t know what he started doing at this time, but this team was still recruiting. - Glow-worm P.8</ref>

Post-Timeskip

They had risen to enough prominence that Cauldron invited them to meetings.

Gold Morning

The Irregulars fought at the oil-rig battle during Gold Morning as part of the 80 strong contingent. Several of them were killed but many successfully evacuated. They assaulted the Cauldron Compound, which was eventually destroyed by Scion.

They played an important role in ending the event.

Early-Ward

Presumably the group is now defunct.
