Hi, I'm a writer from a completely different writing collective (a Riverdale-based one where everyone has superpowers) and I only signed up to ask a few questions relating to a character in my verse's powers. My character is a 'Riverdale' version of Raj Patel from the 2000s Archie Comics. That's not the relevant part. The relevant part is that one of his two powers is that he can hop between any canon possible, even going into 'quarantined' canons and canons that 'require permission' to enter. He often goes into fanfiction canons stealing Sue and Stu weapons to help him in his travels, and occasionally weapons from goodfics if they are powerful enough. Could he logically go into the PPC canon to take a weapon from there, because his other power is complete indetectability from anyone who isn't omnipotent? Do I require permission to do this? And would they be caught off-guard because Raj is from a formerly quarantined canon, aka Riverdale? Thanks in advance - Ferrethead Edit for extra clarification: Mostly, the intention of this short scene is an 'Only 90s kids remember'-style scene, as it is only meant to be a few paragraphs long, and it's just a "Remember the PPC?"-style thing (I'm astounded it's still a thing, I remember it from my childhood!) but I do understand if you are uncomfortable with any meta intrusions
I mean, we of all people can hardly get snippy about people writing fanfic of our stuff...! From an Official Permission perspective, it wouldn't necessarily be canon to the PPC (because it's fanfic), but we'd probably adopt it as Really Happening, because we're like that. ;)
PPC HQ has... some sort of shields to prevent incursions, I can't remember what exactly. But they're not exactly reliable, and there's exterior doors anyway, so Raj could just walk in if he wanted. (They've got a hidden city down near New Zealand if you want a specific way in.) Most weapons would be in the Armoury, or maybe in DoSAT - that's the technology department. Or you could just sneak into any random Response Centre and probably find a Suvian weapon kept as a trophy.
I think we're pretty low on omniscient/omnipotent characters. The Flowers who are in charge are telepaths, so that might be a concern. There's a powerful AI in the networks, but even if it spotted Raj it wouldn't say anything. The only people who might count as omnipotent enough are these three, who are, uh, goddesses. They're not around much though. (I can add more detail if you want to cameo one of them.)
As to the formerly-quarantined question: it would probably mean that if an agent pointed an Analysis Device ("CAD") at Raj, it wouldn't be able to identify his continuum. But those things break all the time anyway...!

(The PPC will always be around. ^_~)
I've kinda had a few Weeks, to be fair, so I didn't get around to replying to my post on the board. Thank you, though. You're all very kind!
Like, we have a Buzzfeed now! That's cool. And a bunch of Time Lords who mostly bicker. And there's the adventures of the janitorial department. Sometimes also everyone is gods. A lot of the Classic Era agents have retired or have kids now. Hell, some of the New Era agents have kids now! There's a German-accented pufferfish playing a sousaphone and everyone just kinda goes with it! My point is, the PPC was always a weird, weird place, but now there's a lot more of it -- and therefore, a lot less chance of your man Raj being discovered. Honestly he'd probably get given what he wanted, as long as it was man-portable. In exchange for something, obviously. Like, I dunno, booze or tech or... well, it's DoSAT, half a packet of wine gums and some belly button fluff'd probably work. =]
Does it have silly quizzes and recipe compilations like the RL version? :P
