Sorry, Angra Metternich is the name of one of our biggest threats in recent years. He's a Durlan with great power even beyond the shape-shifting. He originally arrived as a supposed ambassador from a hostile power known as the Dark Oval.
It took a lot to defeat him, but he hid for a while and returned as one of the Five Faces of Death. At the end of that affair he was apparently destroyed. That doesn't mean there's not an alternate dimension version of him though. I always assumed Metternich used an assumed name.
There was also Madrox the Multiple Durlan. He's pretty powerful but was always more of a flunky type. I think he's locked up now. I'll double-check later.

"No, the alien is half-Kree, half-Skrull. Nrrev is a very sad story to say the least. I would feel sorry for him if he wasn't trying to enslave the galaxy." Red Arrow replied.

Hm. Dunno if we have any "Kree" or "Skrull" in our reality.
I wonder if you're from Earth-3? It sounds similar at least. We've documented 4 distinct realities thus far. Ours is Earth-1. Earth-2 has an analog to the LMB known as the Legion of Super Heroes.
Earth-4 is most similar to our reality with a lot of similar analogs to us. <grimaces> It's currently presumed destroyed.
Earth-3 is very dissimilar to ours, but we've documented an analog to our very own Nightcrawler having existed over there. Some of the names and races you've mentioned sound like ones we've heard of from there. However, it could just be a more similar reality to yours as Earth-4 was to ours.
I'll look into whether we have either of those races on our files. If we have genetic samples of either or both, that may help us trace whether or not this "Nrrev" is on Legion World.

I hadn't heard. Interesting choice.
<Cobalt quickly carries on as if he hadn't heard it but Lardy and others certainly notice; Cobalt does not for even one second glance in the direction of Sir Roy>
"Who?" says one of the Franzz Twins.
No one.
<even after all these years, Cobalt has never forgiven Roy for his days as the Royal Inquisitor and killing Giant Squid>
The ledger is not balanced yet.

Excuse me pool boy? Someone is going to slip with all this water everywhere. Why don't you grab a mop and take care of it?

Look, man, I felt Roy deserved a chance after all he's done for us recently. Plus, he needs this! Otherwise, he might...stray. You don't want that, do you?

I see your point and because you're vouching for him, I feel a lot better about it. All I can say is good luck. Some things you just can't get out of your head and seeing that murder happen right before my eyes has always stuck in my mind. This is your House now, and maybe its things like this that will help shake things up in a good way.
As for that Jose joker, who the heck is that? And why is when I walk by him my spiritual powers are yelling at me to go break his balls?

Kree sounds familiar though. Let me think for a sec...
<racking his brain for an answer>
Aha! Got it! When Mantis was a big part of Legion World and kind of was having flings with both me and Space Ranger she was always talking about some wackiness form her home planet. Which we call Earth-3 by the way. I definitely remember her talking about her history with the Kree. She mentioned several other crazy people and races so Skrull might have been one of the lesser important ones.
I believe on that world they call superheroes "Marvels". That's how I always remember it: the Marvels Universe.
(And Jose, eh? He must have been one of Space Ranger's additions)

Well, Red Arrow over there is either from Earth-3 or something similar to it, I think. She's got a shape-shifter after her who's half-Kree/half-Skrull, she says.
So those races don't exist at all in this universe?

As far as I know, neither exists in explored space. Of course, that hasn't stopped new races from being discovered--or discovering us--before.
I've often wondered what we could do should the Khanate of Sol Invictus or the Dark Oval be pacified and absorbed into the UP. And the first thing I'd do once things calmed down was send explorers into the galaxies beyond them.
<smiles>
Not that I plan on conquering them...tonight anyway
Red Arrow, eh? Is she going to be a Security Officer? She may end up learning to love Legion World once she's saved it a few times. We sure did.

<now Cobalt seems really surprised and sits back>
You know, you could very well be right. I'll find out and let you know. I know Ggrrggians had a well known hate for shape-shifters and believed in killing them on sight. Perhaps the Skrulls were a race they wiped out centuries ago and that's the reason for that part of the culture?
I wonder what year Red Arrow thinks it is? That could be a factor.

Red Arrow interrupted, "Oh no! In my universe the Kree and Skrulls were two of the three major powers that were closest to Earth. Their wars lasted for millenium before being solved by a human named Rick Jones. Both species fell on hard times...some Skrulls attempted to invade Earth. My grandfather became a hero in that war. The Kree became ruled by the Inhuman Royal Family and have been thriving at the expense of the Shi'ar. Funny enough, you guys remind me of Shi'ar races I have seen in the Kree Empire."
Red Arrow continued, "Nrrev has been a major concern. He wants to rule the universe and make everyone the same in an attempt to end all conflict. It's sad that it's the year 2029 and these things still happen...but maybe hatred is universal."
