They would’ve been the final line of defense had the Crowleys kept running. Three heroes local to Boston. All wore bright colors and impractical costumes with extra flaps, layers, and extraneous bits of cloth that made them very ‘costumey’, in a way that made me think of a superhero in a kid’s show. - Excerpt from Pitch 6.9</ref>

Modus operandi

The Super Magic Dream Parade projected an image of over-the-topness, with impractical costumes, ridiculous names, and an air of overconfidence that Victoria likened to superheroes from kids' shows.<ref>“It’s why we’re here,” Magic Knight Crash said. He had colored lenses that masked his pupils and irises to make his eyes teal from corner to corner, and his mask covered his eyebrows, making it hard to read his expression. He sounded confident, but the problem with these guys was that their entire persona was over the top confidence. - Excerpt from Pitch 6.9</ref><ref name="6.9 2" /> Despite this, they were willing and even eager to use violence, offhandedly discussing the possibility of killing or maiming.<ref>“Would firepower work? Cut or blast through it all?” Dynamite asked. At my nod, she asked, “Can we kill him if he’s too much of a problem?”

“Or maim?” Impaler asked.

I felt something inside of me die at the question. Yes, I’d threatened maiming, I even used maiming as a necessary tool, when there wasn’t a polite way to remove someone from a fight. Impaler was trying so hard to celebrate it and make it her thing. - Excerpt from Pitch 6.9</ref>

History

Background

All three heroes were from Boston.<ref name="6.9 2"/> Magic Knight Crash and Mystic Magic Impaler were a known partnership operating prior to Gold Morning. They had a reputation for being somewhat unreliable, with a tendency to desert during crises.<ref name="6.9 1">That wasn’t me jumping to conclusions. I knew of the M.K.C. and M.M.I. pairing from before Gold Morning. I’d been aware they’d made it through that, and their names had come up during the planning for this thing. They’d been a ‘we’ll call and see if they’ll help’. Despite appearances and past history, Tattletale had insisted they were trustworthy. I’d secretly hoped they flake out like they’d been known to in past crises, even at the same time I’d known we needed all the assistance we could get. - Excerpt from Pitch 6.9</ref>

Post-Gold Morning

The team survived Gold Morning and established themselves in the City, in the neighborhood of New Boston.<ref name="6.9 3" />

Post-Fallen Fall

As the therapy team pursued the Fallen who had escaped into the City following the assault on the Mathers base, Super Magic Dream Parade was one of the independent heroes Tattletale called upon to help, with Imp apparently calling in a favor.<ref name="6.9 3">The Boston neighorhoods had heroes of their own. Independents, and small teams separate from the Wardens. With Tattletale making the calls, we had their help. There were others, but Tattletale felt they were a risk, with a chance of moles and troublemakers, and I believed her. - Excerpt from Pitch 6.8</ref><ref name="6.9 1" /><ref name="6.9 4" /> Victoria eventually left them to watch over and deal with the Crowleys.

They did not seem to be one of the teams that Breakthrough invited to be part of their hero network, but apparently had gotten word of what they were doing and gave a referral to the Major Malfunctions.<ref>It would have been easy to dismiss them, or to disparage them. They had dropped out of school to be heroes and had no wins. The lack of education was clear in the spelling errors. It worried me a bit that their referral had come from ‘Super Magic Dream Parade’, the loopy team from Boston, who had apparently heard about what we were doing and passed on word. - Excerpt from Beacon 8.7</ref>
