If you're referring to Vril Dox II, I believe he DID imprint some form of "enhanced charisma" on the citizens of Colu; if you're referring to Vril Dox I (i.e., Brainiac), it was that imprinting that prevented his own imprinting.
As for Lydea, it was Captain Comet (accompanied by Marijn Bek) who shamed Vril Dox II out of it. (Brainiac not being involved at all in that one).

I would have accepted anything leading to Vril recalling the advice that the Durlan gave him. Whether that was combat against the Durlan or Comet/ Bek confronting him.
So, it's over to Chaim!

This would be the break in at the Tower of London, so ... Superboy, Invisible Kid II (Jacques) for sure, umm, Phantom Girl, Sun Boy (?), maybe Brainiac 5?

Oh that's right! Mon-el and Shady were in the prologue and they didn't encounter any servants, did they?
I'm pretty sure a lot of Stile's list is correct.

Okay, I'm gonna throw a wild guess here and add Wildfire to that list, mainly cause Levitz loves to use him in these big stories.
ALso, I'm like 100% positive that Tinya is one of the three that stile got.

you/re 2/2 in that guess, so that locks in Wildfire, Phantom Girl. and I will confirm that stile's certainly about Superboy and Jacques was right
so who was the 5th?

Where there is a Wildfire, there is often a Dawnstar?

I can picture the 5 of them floating down towards the tower but still having trouble remembering the fifth. I was sure about Phantom Girl because she was one of those giving autographs, and Jacques and Superboy had a discussion about being a hero. I remembered Sun Boy's yellow light affecting one of the Servants but I guess that was the second encounter.
How about Cosmic Boy?

you totally remember, Sun Boy's yellow light comes in another encounter...
and Cosmic Boy was the last. He tells Wildfire to let the others play autograph. Phantom Girl and Superboy give autographs, and poor Invisible Jacques stands off tot he side until someone goes, "excuse me sir, are you someone? Can I have your scent trace for my collection?"

Cos was one of the few remaining legionnaires that seemed to fit. Good Q.
The Legion have given up on helping people for free and are charging exorbitant fees for their super deeds. It's all one of Brainiac 5's schemes of course but which legionnaires actually get to enjoy their wealth before the end?

Perfect memory Ibby. Val and Jeckie were the only ones seen enjoying their "loot", which prompted the bad guys to try to steal it resulting in the culmination of B5s plan to capture them thanks to one of those rare uses of Chemical King.
Your turn.

thanks, stile! I remember reading that story as a kid. I know Duo Damsel was off fetching Chemical King, so that left Superboy and Brainiac 5 - who weren't enjoying loot that I could remember and poor Val and Jeckie had to return their loot at the end... lessee... Star Boy stood Dreamer up on a date because his mission got extended. Dreamer gets roped into a beach trip with Saturn Girl, Live Wire, Apparition and Ultra Boy instead... and who becomes their sixth, to make it a sort-of-but-not-really triple date?

THIS one I know very well - I was confused with the last one, as I remembered the story where Brin had to handle Val's estate. Tenzil happened to be in the right place at the right time!
