History

On January 18th, 1993 Alexandria, Eidolon, Hero and Legend were sworn in by the President of the United States under PRTCJ as the founding members of the United States' Protectorate. It was the first in a long series of steps that led to the formation of the PRT, the Protectorate, and in the organization of heroes worldwide.

Organization

The PRT is a multinational organization spanning the United States of America and Canada, with talks about expanding into Mexico. It is overseen as a whole by the Chief Director and Deputy Chief Director while Directors and Deputy Directors oversee individual PRT departments.

United States' PRT departments are designated from one to sixty-seven in order of the country's largest cities to its smaller ones. Canadian cities were added later as part of a treaty, but given special designated (Vancouver (NW), Edmonton (N), Toronto (NE) and etc.).

Brockton Bay (ENE) Pueblo (F), Jasper (J) warranted special attention and, as such, were given special designations. Other special cases included quarantine zones (PRT departments Q1 through Q7) which are in order; as Gary (unexplained explosion in villain population), Freedom, California (Pastor),<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Parahumans/comments/4yyakn/what_is_the_pastor_incident/d6rhpev</ref> Eagleton (Machine Army), Ellisburg (Nilbog), Flint (Redacted), Gallup (Villain Group) and Madison (Simurgh).<imap map-id="22862"></imap>

Equipment

PRT officers wear chain mesh and kevlar vests, and helmets that cover their faces.<ref name="6.5">Tangle 6.5</ref>

They carry firearms - both pistols and assault rifles.<ref>Comment by Wildbow on Spacebattles</ref> These are usually loaded with nonlethal rounds, unless targeting individuals who are considered expendible or capable of surviving.

In addition, specific individuals can carry a variety of specialized equipment.

The PRT's most common non-lethal response to threats is containment foam. PRT officers are usually equipped with tinker-made containment foam applicators, mounted on the backs of the officer and dispensed on the target with spray applicators. The PRT, in response to large threats, has large vans with turrets mounted on the top to spray the containment foam.

The PRT officers can also carry grenade launchers that carry specialized load outs, including containment foam and tinker-made rounds.

Structure

Local Parahuman Response Team Directors usually have a say in the decisions that the Protectorate make as well as the equipment, locations, and funds available to them.
