Beware
Although we are somewhat confused by it, we are told on a regular basis that people find us intimidating. Individually, and especially as a group. We do not feel particularly intimidating, and we do not try to intimidate. But we are willing to use it to our advantage if someone tries to push us around.
Being pushed around, walked on, abused, etc. either breaks you, or makes you incredibly strong. We are notbroken, and we have learned how to pick our battles. We have just chosen this one.

Sure, maybe this time it’s only one person being pushed, but there are ten more people behind that person who have a vested interest.
It is like the foot soldiers who form a circle with shields raised over the center to protect the ones in the middle. You will never reach them and you will be sorry you tried.
We do not have an influential name. We are not wealthy enough to sway people’s minds. We are a family of nobodies from the backside of nowhere, but we are after all a family, the likes of which few have ever encountered. We are well aware that there is no one in the world that will back us up, but we are accustomed to that. It has been a long time since it has been anyone but “you and me against the world” so we are pretty good at it now.
Worldly goods and influence aside, we are quite possibly the most intelligent group of people you will ever encounter. So when you choose to take us on, you are taking on a think-tank like no other.

We have more angles than a dodecahedron, perspectives you haven’t considered, and experiences you’ve never heard of.
Prepare to be intimidated.
