Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Bits o' Legionnaire Business The Super-Sexy Adventurers of the 2940s!

I found this thread, someone commented, and I LOVE the idea!
It's a little like the children of the Legionnaires thread already here on 'Bits'.

I thought I'd transfer those posts here and people can add pictures or stories using some of those ideas.
Or their own!

I imagine Set and Fanfic and kf2f and many otheres would enjoy working with the possibilities!

End page 1.

End of page 2.

Page 3, so far.
I'll transfer as needed to keep those comments current because they have great ideas!

Maybe we should update the era, since in 3010 the Legionnaires are in their middle to late 20s.
It's more like 2970s or so.
UNLESS we go back to the grandparents or greatgrandparents.

And, this would be a Legacy Legion.

EDE, I think, came up with Imra's aunt being in the Adventurers.

Here's my version of Imra's namesake (with a slight play on the first letters of their names).
Amra is a younger sister of Mr. Ardeen and only about 10-15 years older than Imra.

Maybe someone surprising used to be a good guy (or good girl) and, by the time of the Legion of Super-Heroes, has so thoroughly turned to villainy that none of the current generation even remember those glory days?

Sarya would be my first choice, being a hero, but growing too sure of her rightness, and taking control of Venegar 'for it's own good' much as Moondragon took control of the Ba-Bani planet 'for their own good' and became a ruthless despot... It could be fascinating to explore what sort of person she was *before* the Emerald Eye and before seizing control of Venegar. Was she a bright-eyed young archaeology student, who uncovered the Eye and used it for good, for a time? Did she always crave power, like a retro-version of Kinetix?

Did she used to be a redhead?

And she's just one option. Tharok as a genius from a world of pacifists who used his brilliant mind for good, only to have his ideals slowly worn away by facing the less-benevolently-inclined dangers of the outer universe, and then, losing half of his body in his final battle as a superhero, was the final straw, so that when he was rebuilt, he began plotting to use his brilliance, and his new strength, to conquer a universe of people he regarded as unenlighted savages! If force and violence is all they respect, then he'll master those techniques, and crush their ability to make endless war on each other the same way they crushed his youthful idealism!

But just one of these. More than one hero doomed to become a villain would be 'diluting the brand' so to speak.

Other characters could have surprising connections to the Legion universe, but not actually be directly related to current Legionnaiers. Perhaps there is a member of the same species as Ontiir or Gym'll, who aren't necessarily related to those characters, but will be at least familiar alien faces, in the Legionverse.

Being a pre-Legion-Legion, they might have different rules, or none at all, and some members might derive their 'superpowers' from equipment, or lack superpowers at all. A tech-carrying SP officer, not as a liaison, but as an actual core member of the group, using various bits of 'restricted' technology to 'keep up' like a 30th century Batman, could be funky.
