Whats the big deal about being called "Pounder"? You must be either a MacDonald's lover or...well, you fill in the blank....

The extremely rare (possibly completely unique) offspring of a Winathian father and Carggite mother, Brandi Anzzel-Muolo was born a singleton, and seemingly without the Carggite ability to triplicate.
When her parents were killed in a tragic Planetary Chance Machine mishap while vacationing on Ventura, Brandi-- disowned by her family on both sides because of her singleton/non-triplicating "disabilities"-- ended up in a space-orphanage.
Meanwhile, Celebrand, leader of the Wanderers, was prematurely bald and very lonely as the prematurely bald usually are. He decided to adopt a child and was bumped up the list due to his celebrity status and because the space-orphanage workers felt sorry for him being so bald.
So Celebrand took little Brandi home to her new pink, hover-dollhouse saturated room. The next morning he went into the room to find all the hover-dollhouses smashed... by the rambunctious little BOY that now was in Brandi's place!
Turns out Brandi was a twin after all, but because of the mixture of Carggite genes, only one twin can manifest at a time. So sometimes you get Brandi, sometimes you get Brandon.
POWERS (If you can call it that)
Celebrandi has the "power" to vanish completely and become her brother Celebrandon at will.
During periods where Brandon has not been manifested, the switch can come involuntarily. Which can make dating interesting to say the least.
The teen(s) have adopted a prankster personality through the years as a result of their unique (and completely absurd) life-situation. Celebrand has gotten even BALDER as a result (if such a thing is possible)!

This is a bit off course for the topic, but I think it'd be fun to see an alterna-LSH that featured adult Legionnaires (like married, hairline-receding legionnaires from the ADVENTURE adult Legion) who decide to scour the galaxy for the next generation of heroes... a new teen Legion!
We've seen Ultra Boy, Invisible Kid I, Wildfire and Chameleon Boy in mentoring roles in the past. Who else has been a mentor to younger heroes? Who would choose to train a young hero and what kind of mentor would they be?
Ayla, of course, would be the Mary LeTourneau of her century.

We've also seen Chuck & Lu in mentoring roles as head of the Academy, and later Cos & Lydda in a similar role with Academy students.

There's not a word yet, for old friends who've just met.

White Witch has a mentor-y vibe to her. I could see her training a young apprentice, who would then go dark and become a vessel for icky forces he shouldn't have been touching that way...
Timber Wolf, definitely. Timber Wolf & Cub might sound like a horrible, horrible thing, but Timber Wolf raising the never-before-seen son (or daughter) of Val and Jeckie could be interesting.
Brainiac 5 has already spawned Omega and Computo and the Infinite Man, I think he should stay away from the whole 'raising kids' thing.
I think my oddest 'sidekick' idea was from the Threeboot, when Invisible Kid got his arm blown off and replaced by an alien arm. My first thought was that it would be *so* cool if the alien who replaced his arm was a Durlan, and the tissue itself that is serving as his arm is a quasi-sentient lump of Durlan biomatter, currently obedient to Lyle's will, but still retaining Durlan properties (allowing it to appear human, or transform into something with claws or big muscles or tentacles). He'd later discover that this is how Durlans reproduce, by budding off a portion of themselves and allowing it to develop sentience on it's own (or not, more commonly, and remain animalistic). So he's got an 'evil hand' that does stuff, and has it's own super-powers, and can sometimes get pretty unreasonable! Will 'Lyle's arm' ever become a full-fledged sentient in it's own right, or will it become a part of him (or will *he* become a part of *it...*). Stay tuned for the drama and hilarity as Lyle wrestles with his new limb!

Hmm, didn't the Witch Witch actually have a "student", a young Khund named Harlack? She was his mentor, wasn't she?

Actually Dain is right and Mysa also mentored Dragonmage for a time.

While we're at it, Legion Worlders could sponser their own sidekicks. I wouldn't mind training some kidlet in lame jokes and over-use of graemlins.
