Hi, I'm Kate Bishop, and I'm a superhero. [There's a pause before she goes on.] There's a chance that doesn't mean much to many of you. There may even be some of you questioning the legality of vigilantes, but I'm not the type that goes too far. There's a reason why we kind of prefer "superhero" over "vigilante" anyway. For those of you who do know them, I'm an Avenger. But that's meaningless here. And I'm not really here to ... brag, either.
[Her voice is warm either way. There's a reason why she's here.]
Back home, I've got a like-minded group that tends to go on missions like the ones here. I was hoping to form something like that. It won't be the same, but I've got a couple teammates and not the whole set. We'd do pretty well for ourselves, but we need a couple more helping hands. So that's why I'm here. Well, partly.
[There is a question she has about this whole alternate earth business, but she'll get to it. She really wants a cohesive unit working together, as that seems to be the best way to proceed forward.]
The other goal I'd like for our group is to mobilize and help people in need. I can do this myself, and I'm planning on it, but more hands at the deck might help out. We don't just need this in missions, and from what I've read, we don't know what's gonna come next. I know it's risky to put together a group like this with how people come and go, but I'm prepared to deal with that. Plus, I don't just back down from something. I'm kind of stubborn that way.
If you've already got something like this going and wouldn't mind a few more people, I'd love to chat with you. I'm an archer mostly, but I have other gifts. One member is a ... [a trickster? How does one even sell Loki?] ... well, I'm sure he's good at something. And the final is an alien with advanced knowledge of technology that he might share. He's also got bug DNA and is extremely flexible. [That last bit. She really had to add that last bit.] So let me know.
The other question is: in the annals of this world, have people of Earth found evidence that they existed? Back home, alternate Earths like this usually mean ... alternate versions of us, which can either be a good thing, or a very, very bad thing. I'm thinking bad, considering the state of things. I was just wondering.

[Unless kids are involved, but that's different.
Anyway, to actually answer the question:]
Exsilium was basically a convict colony, the levels of tech were all over the place, since a lot of it had to be scavenged. So while we do have time travel tech, they didn't have like, toaster ovens. Whatever scientific equipment you need to work with time travel probably wasn't available outside the Initiative Hold, and they didn't like to share their toys.

But if you do it in specific, spaced out drop points, with different locations and a different method each time, and no one's any wiser. They can't piece together why it's working out that way.
Theoretically.

She just has a lot of feelings about the mutiny.]
You can say that again.

So we're where we are now, the ball's in our court, so to speak.

Politics really isn't my thing either. I'm not touching any of that with a ten foot pole. And I don't think anyone wants a vigilante's opinion on a code of conduct, anyway.

Let's just say that the mutiny followed.
[Of course, she was on the side of that one, but let's be real: who wouldn't be?]
