=== Designated Victim ===
Someone who is fated to frequently encounter dangerous [[Others]] and [[Practitioner]]s, much like a Gilded Lily encounters magic items.<ref name=":0">Long and Mayes are a Witch Hunter pair who rove around in motorcycles.  Mayes is a Designated Victim.  Whatever fate the universe weaves, it keeps putting her in the way of hostile Others and monstrous practitioners.  Kind of like a Gilded Lily (someone who, by dint of circumstance or shenanigans on the universe's part chronically stumbles onto magic items).  Between the two of them, they've survived enough crap that the pattern's been established, and practices don't really affect them anymore.  What's more, their return to sender vibe is really, really strong.  They're scrappers, with a few cursed items that don't really affect them, and a strong survivor vibe.  Most of the time they crash into a scene, with a whole lot of chaos, start crashing into wards and summons, rebound them, and follow them back to the head of the snake.  This does mean L&M sometimes let things loose or screw up balances, but they can often kill their way through those things, or they'll just kill the people who swoop in to deal with them; They're not the strongest, but have a way of turning up in delicate situations and have enough momentum they'll probably get 5-10 years of 'work' done before they get turned into paste or worse. - [https://old.reddit.com/r/Parahumans/comments/iq6g7c/_/g4pyrzr/ Wildbow comment on Witch Hunters]</ref> Presumably like a gilded lily this is a symptomatic diagnosis with different causes having a similar effect.
