Dorian’s Faction Raids Hero Society Headquarters

The Night Cleaner

Dorian’s Faction Raids Hero Society Headquarters is an unauthorized assault that turns an internal failure of discipline into a direct confrontation with the Hero Society. The crew’s breach and damage to the headquarters lead to opposing groups facing one another, while Dorian’s later response makes clear that the raid was not his order.

Causes and Background

The raid was carried out by members of Dorian’s crew without his authorization. In his later account, Dorian says they entered the heroes’ headquarters and confined its members in their containment room while they damaged the building. Their belief that they were helping did not lessen the consequences: the operation was a serious failure of judgment and left Dorian to confront its aftermath.

The Assault and Confrontation

At the scene, the Hero Society stood on one side and part of Dorian’s crew on the other. Leon reported that the attackers had caught the heroes by surprise, broken into the headquarters, confined them, and trashed the place. Dorian arrived with members of his group; he was attending to one of his people before moving closer to the others. The encounter thus unfolds not as a planned battle announced by Dorian, but as the immediate fallout of his crew’s unauthorized action.

Aftermath and Significance

The raid damages trust within Dorian’s own ranks as well as intensifying the conflict with the Hero Society. Roady, identified by Dorian as the crew’s hacker, bypassed the headquarters’ system in seconds, enabling the entry. Dorian later encountered Jax, one of the crew members, and left his disapproval unspoken as he walked away; he regarded the crew’s attempt to help as having made everything worse. His silence functions as punishment, while the ruined headquarters marks the tangible cost of an operation undertaken in his name but without his command.
