After The Storm:Plot Points

Ironsight appears to be the only major mercenary company – or “military subcontractor” – in the state. But browsing the online services of American Mercenary and similar sites brings up a number of private individuals who do mercenary work. Some also work as private investigators or personal bodyguards. A few of those even list Ironsight in former career experience. As for AI research, it appears that such research that is posted publicly is mainly done in local universities.

There is enough street crime in the city that “a passerby helps victim” stories crop up every once in a while. But most of those are mainly about a helper happening by rather than active vigilantism, and vigilante action easily drowns in the noise. A couple of stories stand out, however.

There is a very recent “A masked woman in a crescent symbol outfit saves old lady from muggers!” story in Staten Island. However, on careful reading, the masked woman bit may be a bit embellished. In the interview, the old lady refers to the “mask” as a niqab. So it was a Muslim woman wearing a face-covering garment and a shirt with a crescent symbol… She did knock a pair of muggers on their asses though.

There is also a story from upstate a couple of years back. It is actually listed as carjacking, not vigilantism, but there are strange details. Three young men picked up a hitchhiker who battered them severely, left them in a ditch and stole their car. To call the battering severe does not appear to be an overstatement. Two of the men lost an ear each, and third had most of his front teeth knocked out of his mouth. And the hitchhiker in question was a young teen girl. The car was later found abandoned in New York.
