Vae Victus (2025)

Overview

WW extracts information from a couple of lower-level thugs about the location of the evil scheming Professor. At first meeting, WW doesn’t realize the professor has used cybernetic implants to boost his abilities and is exponentially stronger than WW. She regroups, trains, and engages him a second time. Expecting a different result seems foolish, but her hubris won’t let her stay away. The Professor demonstrates a case study on how to dismantle a heroine, and would likely keep going if not for the thugs showing up with their own score to settle. One targeted EMP blast later, and the thugs have a weak and docile heroine to do whatever they want.
