Which Parahumans character can solve a mystery, conspiracy, or crime from another fictional setting, if they replaced the detectives/investigators?

These are my What-If analyses on such scenarios, written to be fun and more theory crafting, than a standard story.

Omakes and such are fine, as are suggestions and discussions

The SEEK Timeline Part 1 - B&W

A near year long side-project, this document covers over a thousand years of the SEEK setting to the current chapter of 5.5.W.

All evidence comes from the text itself (though if there is WoA on reddit or discord that clarifies things, I will eventually include it

There is a section regarding a timeline error/contradiction, with the explanation as to why the separation occurs. If there are any corrections or timeline information you found, please message me and I will DM you permission to edit the document (or I can just edit it for you)

Part 2 will of course be the Orion part of the story.

This has been a labor of love for me and because of how passionate I feel for the setting. Not since Ward has a story really enthralled me to the same degree, and this is the first time I've ever made such a project like a timeline.

Thank you Wildbow. Hoping for your best recovery, buddy.

Respect the Simurgh - Part 1, Part 2, Part 3

The Hope Killer, the Simurgh is the mastermind of the Endbringers, orchestrating several machinations that have crushed the dreams of humanity in service to enslaving humanity.

She's pretty cool!

I made the initial post 10 YEARS AGO! I decided to go back and clean everything up, make it more in-depth, and have to tip my hat to Wildbow for creating one of the most harrowing antagonists in fiction.

I have a whole Analysis post planned comparing the foils of Scion and Simurgh vs Taylor and Victoria - but as a sneak peek - what I loved about rereading the final battle of Ward between the Simurgh and Victoria is how visceral it is.

Victoria's growing panic and insanity as reality comes apart all around her, seeing people being beheaded and or crushed all around her, while she tries to keep calm and her body falling apart... it really hits hard.

I also love all the little bits of symmetry between them, where the story would have them perform mirror moves (Ziz and Vic flying in the same patterns, both of them giving each other identical injuries, scream and aura guiding enemies and allies etc etc)

While hectic during the ongoing story, rereading at my own pace really made me appreciate all the work going in to sell the atmosphere of this monster.

P.S. I think Chris sabotaged the Mather's Giant for the Simurgh
