The Empress wishes to orchestrate her own competition.
She would like to see sentients from throughout the galaxy attempt to fit the roles modeled by the classic Fatal Five. Any character from the Legionverse is eligible except for actual Legionnaires.

The FEMME FATALE should be not only beautiful, but powerful and confident (and female, hopefully obviously). The Emerald Empress herself is an excellent example of this type. Other examples could be Glorith, Dream Girl, X Bomb Betty, etc....
The WEAPON WIELDER should be powerful and confident, but should also have a formidable weapon, which occurs either naturally, or is created by man or machine. The WEAPON WIELDER may be male or female. The Persuader is an excellent example of this type, but another example would be Tyr or Black Mace.
The BRAINS OF THE OPERATION may be human, alien or machine or any combination thereof, male, female or N/A. They must be extremely intelligent, though. Tharok is the Fatal Five's example, but Brainiac 5 would be another example.
The ENERGY BLASTER should be able to generate great power from within themselves. The origin of this power is irrelevant. The ENERGY BLASTER may be male or female. Mano is the Five's example, but Sun Boy or Lightning Lass are examples from the Legion.
The BRUTE should be a large, powerful being, either male or female (or non sentient, if competitive). Validus is the prime example, but Blok or Power Boy or Titania would be other examples.

I'm going to keep my picks in the villainous or at least non-typical-hero mode.
1. List your top choices for FEMME FATALE:
You can't go wrong with an interstellar teleporter like VEILMIST. Telepathic/telekinetic MYSTELOR of the Taurus Gang might be fun to explore. THORA and/or AZURA-- you need a hot feminazi!
2. List your top choices for WEAPON WIELDER:
HUNTER, son of Otto Orion. FRAKE, the she-pirate, maybe with some kinda space-sword. DAGON THE AVENGER, parent-kidnapper and suit of armour!
3. List your top choices for BRAINS:
BEN PARRES, thief supreme. EVILLO, despite his inability to count to a dozen correctly. DR. MAYAVALE, he who has the knowledge of countless lifetimes at his beck and call!
4. List your top choices for BLASTER:
Pharoxx of Orando. Stargrave. Sun Emperor.
5. List your top choices for BRUTE:
HOLDUR, Quicksand's partner-- especially the big, brtual fishnet-shirt wearing version from SHOWCASE. The EVERY-10-YEARS MONSTER, this time on a more regular schedule. ROGARTH of the Taurus Gang, who beat the crap out of Supergirl.
6. List some situations you'd like to see the challengers face:
Interplanetary beast guard!
How well would one might fight off the mental domination of Charma or, if a chick, Apollo.
Spank crazy Ol-Vir before he murderizes you.
Outwit a Legionnaire!
Best response to being rejected from the LSH by early-Adventure era hyper-mean Cosmic Boy and Saturn Girl. (or from the LSV by equally mean Saturn Queen and Cosmic King)
Set
There's not a word yet, for old friends who've just met.

The Femme Fatale - Nightwind
The Weapon Wielder - so many to choose from, but I like Particon (of the Workforce) or Silver Slasher
The Brains of the Operation - Saturn Queen
The Energy Blaster - Lazon
The Brute - the Super-Moby Dick of Space!
As for things for them to do, I love Mllash's suggest of showing their reaction to getting rejected from the Legion, but it would be funny if it was a 'candid' shot and not a 'how I wish I reacted thirty minutes after the fact' reaction.
A standard 'showing off their powers' pose would be cool.
