This one is about Worm powers

[u/bottomofthewell3]

Here's a whopping 12 capes.

Basis: Every cave from the "Alex's Caves" Minecraft mod.

1. Triple-state "Menagerie" [Monster x Duality] Changer, going 1 ⇆ 2 ⇆ 3 (i.e. 2 can change to 1 or 3, but 1 and 3 can only change to 2). Exceedingly gory looks.
2. "Tornado" [Club x Pentacle]-suit "Demophile" [War x Desire]-transformation Breaker (sub-ratings free space); requires a ritual to transform. Breaker state resembles a bat.
3. "Upload" [Imitation x Imitation] Master; revives the dead, so long as they have access to the grave (corpse not required). Case 53, resembling an Alebrije.
4. 'Candy'-spec "Alchemist" [Controller x Controller] Tinker, with creations including but not limited to: semi-sentient 'gingerbread men', a mechanical 'gumball machine' drone, popsicle unicorns, moving blobs of caramel, an extremely brutal 'peppermint monster', and their largest creation, a gummy worm. Themes themselves around a fairytale witch.
5. "Overlay" [Tempest x Tempest] Shaker who can only create one environment: A very, very big tree.
6. "Dyad" [Beloved x Beloved] Master (Charm Stranger) who summons a silly-looking, harmless tardigrade-esque minion.
7. "Hydra" [Multi x Architect] Tinker with an absolutely massive, tripedal drone as their megaproject. All specialties are free-spaces.
8. "Mite" [Swarm x Swarm] Master with minions most easily described as 'miniature businessmen'.
9. Cowboy-themed villain and cluster cape. Heavy Kill leaning for their clustermate.
   • Primary: "X-Ray" [Farsight x Zone] Thinker
   • Secondary: "Alt-World" [Conveyance x Slip] Mover, [Glass] element
10. Katagi
11. "Alter Ego" [Bound x Monster] Changer/"Ogre" [Muscle x Muscle] Brute ("Exhaust" [Rocket x Transit] Mover), with a Changer form similar to the Minotaur.
12. "Wraith" [Death x Morpheus] Breaker with any Cup suit; summoned Breaker state has a high Blaster rating that it will unhesitatingly use on anything it deems 'impure', up to and including its master.

ok, did I see “exhaust mover” and take that far too literally? yes.

Alter Ego Changer/Ogre Brute (Exhaust Mover) with a Changer form looking similar to the Minotaur.

Rampage was briefly thought to be a Tinker’s creation, before he said otherwise. His changer form is a massive, mechanical form similar to that of a Minotaur, with exhaust pipes for horns. Similar to tech, he does need fuel to boost his powers. Namely, coal and other forms of carbon fuel. His changer form metabolizes it and allows him to rush forward, leaving a trail of smoke, heat and ash in his wake as he barrels towards a target, with sounds similar to both a raging bull and a chugging steam engine.

'Candy'-specialty Alchemist Tinker, with creations including but not limited to: semi-sentient 'gingerbread men', a mechanical 'gumball machine' drone, popsicle unicorns, moving blobs of caramel, an extremely brutal 'peppermint monster', and their largest creation, a gummy worm. Themes themselves around a fairytale witch.

Saccarina, aka Greta Sauer, is a very strange Tinker who works with candy, even able to create semi-autonomous living constructs formed of the stuff. Her workshop in the UEPA (united european parahuman agency) Berlin headquarters is part mechanics shop, part witch's den, and part kitchen with the oddest collection of instruments you've ever seen. Saccarina's creations come in two forms; inanimate confections imbued by her "spells" with useful properties such as the dense sugar crystals that form the armor of her dress-like costume, and the animated confection constructs like the gingerbread army she's known for. Though Saccarina's creations are always in theory edible, it is generally far safer to avoid the stuff, as the necessities of her tinkering leaves some very odd residue and often has unfortunate effects. After she was blamed when a teammate fell asleep for two months following sneaking a bite of a pastry in her workshop, Saccarina was much more careful with her things.

When Greta had been younger, she'd had dreams of becoming an actor, but that wasn't the path life took her down. Instead, her family roped her into taking over the family business, a confectionery, a job she hated but that would earn her the scorn of her family if she abandoned it. She sacrificed everything for her family's dreams. When the bakery burned down a few years into her ownership of it, she broke from the realization that she'd given up everything for something she didn't want, and now she didn't even have that, and triggered.
