The Rise of Khepri is an event taking place during Gold Morning. It focuses on Taylor Hebert after her power is modified by Panacea.
Prelude
Following the raid on Cauldron west African base, Taylor was given more information on how second triggers worked and how powers changed and evolved. <ref name="DoctorMother">“We did. I can tell you about them, or I can answer your questions. What information do you desire, Weaver? What insights on the entity could win this for us?”
I swallowed.
“Second Triggers,” I said. ... Excerpt from Venom 29.7 </ref>
Events
Taylor was able to convince Panacea to modify her power in the hopes of gaining an advantage in the fight against Zion.<ref name="30.1">Speck 30.1</ref> While successful Taylor rapidly loses her ability to communicate with others.
She begins targeting specific parahumans that are able to assist her task, starting with Doormaker and Clairvoyant, subsuming Teacher's students, the Yàngbǎn, and still incarcerated prisoners in the Birdcage. This led to Dragon, her friend and mentor, to oppose her.
Aftermath
Following her disabling of Dragon, Taylor — or as she would later be known as, Khepri — was now ready to turn her full attention to Zion.<ref name="30.4">Speck 30.4</ref>
Trivia
- Just as with her surrender to the PRT, Taylor again shows her willingness to make important decisions without consulting those closest to her.
