I love you.

Sink Or Swim! What does it take to get some help in this town?
Are rookie heroes more of a danger to themselves than anything? A lack of training is suspected why some hero careers are so short! Forced to improvise and develop on the fly while in the field, a lack of results of their efforts can be extremely depressing to newcomers. The stories they could tell of the trouble they've fallen into. And in one case, said story HAS been told!
"Day one on the job, I froze up when other supers were, well, let's say 'arguing', and as a result, I fell into a meteor slime." says would-be heroine, Dawn Pink. "Still no idea if there were any side effects. Once that wears off, I spend a week further studying the source of my abilities, and trying to develop something to help in future situations. I came up with a bunch of useless powers in the process. Like the power to fly for three seconds at a time, when nobody is particularly paying attention to you. What use is that? Anyway, I spend what little power I'd been able to build up on a sort of final attack. I finally get back out on the streets, and what happens? Day one, there's a villain attack, but I lack any transportation methods, and get there after it ends. Day two? Aliens. I miss with my new attack, nearly take out a civilian, and get buried in rubble for two hours. But what else can I do? My training HAS to be on the job. A training room isn't cheep, and nobody is going to sponsor some no-name newbie. It's just... frustrating, you know? Sometimes I wish there was a place rookies like me can go to get some pointers, without a membership fee or VIP pass."
