==Reputation== Is respected by the wider community,<ref>[...]Verona looked back, then around.<br><br>She couldn’t shake the feeling that even the sourest faces among the adults and kids seemed to change a bit when it came to Raymond. Softening, or focusing more.<br><br>Mrs. Durocher seemed to scare the pants off of people. With those dark eyes with chewed up meaty things swimming in them, she scared Verona a bit.<br><br>But they seemed to ''respect'' Raymond. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/09/01 Excerpt] from [[Leaving a Mark 4.5]]</ref> though the position he's taken has meant he faces stiff competition on taking any more.<ref>To draw on Pale stuff, the guy that set up magic Ebay and an online library for practitioners has five different metaphorical guns held to his head at all times by international powers. Seeing 6/10 of the subreddit's posts be about this magical forum seems like it would impact a lot of perceptions of someone who then goes into the Pactverse or Otherverse. [Edited to add] It's a setting where information is literal power and ''suspected'' diabolism is a 'kill them now just to be safe' case, and OMO people are sharing their magic diagrams and joking about demons like it's a punchline. - [https://old.reddit.com/r/Parahumans/comments/l4vnrd/_/gkskfb8 Wildbow on Reddit.]</ref> He is famous for creating the Atheneum Arrangement, the Black Box, and Gold Garden.<ref>Mr. Raymond Sunshine, creator of the Atheneum Arrangement, the Black Box, and Gold Garden.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/09/01/leaving-a-mark-4-5/ Excerpt] from [[Leaving a Mark 4.5]]</ref> * The Atheneum Arrangement is an online library service.<ref>We can give you access to the Atheneum Arrangement.”<br><br>“No idea what that is,” Lucy said. “Raymond’s thing?”<br><br>“Like the library you’ve been using here, it’s a collection of books that virtually every practitioner can expect to have on their shelves. Easy to acquire, some old or outdated, but… if you want general knowledge, it covers that base well. There’s also a repository of articles, opinion pieces, scanned records, and photographs, and a ‘wait list’ of other books and pieces that haven’t yet been judged as having merit, and you’d want to be careful with those, because people ''do'' put traps and things in there.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/12/12/gone-ahead-7-4/ Excerpt] from [[Gone Ahead 7.4]]</ref> *The Gold Garden is an online market place for magic tools and items, complete with automatic courier service.<ref>Gold Garden was the leading online marketplace for magic items, tools, and components for things such as alchemy or dollmaking. He wasn’t the only one, but virtually everyone who paid attention and who had reasons to want to do their business securely had recognized that Raymond’s implementation was strongest. His implementation was secure, his couriers autonomous and efficient. The only orders that Raymond facilitated that didn’t reach the destination failed to reach their destination because of user error.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/09/02 Excerpt] from [[Break 1]]</ref> *The Black Box is a system designed to warn people of potential threats. Allowing practitioners to mark areas as no go zones and give information on possible dangers. It's expensive to maintain.<ref>The Black Box was different, a warning system for threats and problems. People recognized the need for it, but they wanted no part of it. The job was thankless, but necessary. It cost more than it paid, and demanded its own share of time. Areas across the world could be marked as no-go zones, traps, or areas where an Other was finding its foothold. Practitioners could log in and share what they knew, share short-form information. Something between a travel guide, a weather forecast, and an emergency dispatch system.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/09/02 Excerpt] from [[Break 1]]</ref><ref>She exhaled heavily. “I’m in contact with Nicolette. A bit with Zed. Because of the sheer amount of reports we’re getting, the Black Box isn’t really enough. That’s, uh, it’s a system a practitioner called Rad Ray Sunshine made. It keeps track of the more dangerous Others, the places you have to watch out for. No-go zones. It’s also for sharing information.”<br><br>“Not enough?” Elizabeth asked.<br><br>“The old interface doesn’t work. It marks out areas in red and different colors, and you click one and it gives you an info box and a link to where you can look stuff up. But there’s some dense areas, especially around the cities, where you can’t even click on stuff because there’s so much overlapping.”<br>[...]<br>“It’s the Black Box. Putting them into the system, they were marked as enemies,” Elizabeth said. “I think they’re rigged. [...] They’re rule-based, instanced bogeymen, they respond primarily to triggers, rituals spread around as urban legends, usually. Say the right words while sitting around a candle with your friends at a sleepover, get murdered, that sort of thing. Except here, based on what they were flowing from, it’s a bit different.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/04/16 Excerpt] from [[Wild Abandon 18.3]]</ref>
