Ooh! Here's one...

Live Wire + Monstress = Frankenstein

Wow!
What a list!
Great job, Klar Ken!

Elad's daughter is Zariah, by the way, a small thing, that.

And Paean's codename, which you use most in the list, is 'Helix'.
Her brother is The Stealth.
Nitpicy, but that's how we Legion fans are!

Thanks for including the picture combinations, too.

Well it makes sense, doesn't it?

, ditto!

Candle, you are just too gracious and polite. Is this part of your online persona, or are you really this way?

I edited the list with your corrections, and added tbe child Frankenstein , which is pure genius.

I'm pretty much just me.
I can be a pill, though.
Just ask Zardi or jimgallagher.

But thanks for the nice words.

I have to say that I love your character and story ideas.
I've had loads of fun with them!
Please keep posting!

No, she's really this way.

We can all be pills sometimes. Candle is LOVE!

Some of my ideas (working more off postboot characters since I know that era best; though a lot of the couple would have to have paired off just before Legion Lost or something?)

Garth and Imra's daughter, Candis Ranzz (Impulse as a tentative codename, but I can't think of anything better?)
-- Shunned by both her parents' homeworlds. Winath didn't like it she was a single birth; Titan pities and fears her. Candis is virtually mindblind; she can receive telepathy, but her sending is so feeble that only the best telepaths can sense it. Most of her energy is channeled into manipulating the neuro-electrical signals of her targets. By dampening signals to the muscles she can paralyze a foe; blocking sensory nerves can strike a foe blind or deaf. She can also overload nerves, but this is a last resort as she can cause nerve/brain damage... possibly fatal.
Candis gets along best with Uncle Mekt and his kids; she thinks they understand her plight better than her parents do. She's quiet and reserved; thinks people blame her for things even when she's done nothing wrong. Red-haired with streaks of blonde; blue eyes.

Matrix (Justyn Ranzz) & Virus (Sharyl Ranzz)
-- Since Salu's powers were changed by the Emerald Eye so that she grew instead of shrinking, that effectively barred her from Imsk; her family was too horrified of her to continue communications. So she'd visited with the other Legionnaires' families instead -- usually, it was a poor substitute. That was until she visited Winath with the Ranzzes; they had just gotten Mekt back on parole due to his helping save Garth during the latter's prison visit.

In Mekt, Salu found something of a kindred soul; they were both outside the norm for their worlds, both of them feared for the evil they'd done and the consequences. They grew closer and finally fell in love and got married. To Mekt's surprise, she bore him twins: he figured that the "curse" would pass down and mean he'd only sire singletons.
Both siblings have dark auburn hair and purple eyes; they're fairly short for their age, though not to Salu's extreme. Their powers are likewise shared; they can shrink (but only to a centimeter height) and can manipulate electricity. Sharyl uses her powers to manipulate computer and security systems; "Uncle Lyle" has been her tutor in this (though he's made it clear she's only to do this for the greater good and not for her own profit!). Justin prefers to "link in" with vehicles, and is an excellent pilot even without this extra edge; if it wasn't for being called to the LSH, he could have been on the racing circuit.

Polymath 2 (Kamil Dox)
-- ColuGov went behind Querl's back and declared him a "failed experiment". They decanted another Coluan from the DNA used to bioengineer Querl, and thus produced Brainiac 6 -- although they manipulated him prenatally to eliminate the "defects" that had given Querl his emotional aspects.

Horrified and disgusted by this, Querl turned his back on Colu entirely and took the new codename Polymath. He cloned himself (as the DNA sequence that resulted in the 12th-level intellect was too recessive for his purposes), and has raised his son fairly well. While Kamil doesn't show much emotion usually, he at least is free from the sneering that Querl usually exhibited.

Bouncing Boy + Monstress = Big Boy
Catspaw + Timber Wolf = CatDog
Lightning Lad + Kinetix = Friction
Lightning Lass + Storm Boy = Lightning Storm
Princess Projectra + Stone Boy = Crown Jewel
White Witch + Plaid Lad = Plaid Witch

I love the support guys!
sigh

Candis is a great character!
I was thinking shince she affects nerves, something like 'Synapes' might work.

Matrix and Virus are fun, too!
The car idea is so, guyish!
He should race, too, even if he IS a Legionnaire.
I've always felt that the Legion's members should have more balanced lives.
I remember how surprising it was when we saw Tasmia playing a violin.
(She made shadow sculptures postboot.)

Maybe he could do exibition runs or vid/utube entertainment racing?

Polymath 2 is a great name.
Do you even watch 'NUMB3RS'?
Wouldn't it be kind of neat if Kamil was interested in the same kind of math used to solve crimes?
Sort of like a Data Holmes or something.

Just stream of consciousness ideas from what you wrote.
Thanks!

Big Boy and Crown Jewel are way good, SK!
CatDog is funny, too, but it reminds me of the CatDog cartoon, which makes it even funnier, but also kind of eyuckkky!

Well I didn't think like a cat and dog combined, like a child who's predominately feline with canine features or canine with feline features.

These two are very cool, and a totally outside-the-box pairing, Mekt and Salu? Rock on!

I know, I know!
Someone to drive Cannus crazy!
lol

I am trying to do the same thing with the New Wanderers (Legion of Earth-247) that I did with the 5YL Legion…

01 FalconFire
Real Name: Mari Krinn
Parents: Rokk Krinn (Cosmic Boy) and Imra Ardeen (Saturn Girl)
Telepathy and telekinesis. Originally calling herself Tele-Girl, Mari was on a solo exploration mission when her ship collided with an infant Sun-Eater.
Both severely injured, they merged their physical beings and consciousnesses.
Mari now is able to call upon the vast power of the Sun-Eater that resides within her to augment her psionic abilities and produce various solar energy effects.

02 the Iron Giant
Real Name: Arthur Nolan
Parents: Andrew Nolan (Ferro) and Salu Digby (LeViathan)
Has the ability to transform himself into a normal-sized, flesh-and-blood human.

03 Shadow Wolf
Real Name: Marr Mallor
Parents: Brin Londo (Wolfpack) and Tasmia Mallor (Shadow Lass)
Another Shadow Champion.

04 Nexus
Real Name: Isidore Nal
Parents: Gear (I.Z.O.R) and Nura Schappin Nal (Dreamer)
Has the ability to manifest, at will, electric sheep.

05 Pandora
Real Name: Alz Dox
Parents: Querl Dox (Brainiac 5.1) and Jasmine Cullen (Kid Quantum 2)
Alz has inherited her mothers' power to alter quantum constants, but only a tenth-level intelligence. This is more than enough to make her quite a force to be reckoned with.
She is cheerful and well-liked among her teammates. The name "Pandora" means "all gifts".

06 Star Girl
Real Name: Hari Kallor
Parents: Thom Kallor (Star Boy) and Ayla Ranzz (Spark)
Full Daxamite power set. Ice vision. Flame breath. Lightning vision. Gravitational manipulation.

07 ThunderBolt
Real Name: Ramael Gand
Parents: Lar Gand (M'Onel) and CeCe Beck (Thunder)
When CeCe Beck said her magic word in the 91st century, she finds herself transported to the past, among her friends in the Earth-247 Legion in the New Earth universe. With no way back to the future (and stuck in her Thunder form) she develops a romance with M'Onel, and the two are married within a couple of years.
Ramael Gand is the result. Daxamite-class strength, speed, flight, and invulnerability. Powered up even under a red sun, and the crushing gravity of planets like Daxam and Kormo.
http://dc.wikia.com/wiki/World%27s_Finest_Vol_1_92
Invulnerable to both lead and magic.

Note: FireFalcon, Star Girl, and Thunderbolt are the "heavy hitters" of the team.

08 Ultra Lad
Real Name: Cub Nah
Parents: Jo Nah (Ultra Boy) and Phantom Girl (Apparition / Phase)
From his mother, he has inherited full Bgztlr and Cargggan abilities. From his father, invulnerability, penetra-vision and levitation. In addition, he possesses a unique power all his own: he has the ability to alter his apparent physiological age, from infant to old man, or anywhere in between.

09 Phase Nine
Real Name: Aaron Ranzz
Parents: Garth Ranzz (Lightning Lad) and Lluornu Durgo (Triad)
Note: although Garth has regained his natural appearance and powers, he is still genetically Tromman.
Aaron has the ability to manifest as eight separate elemental phases: stone, plant, fire, air and wind, water and ice, a "beast" elemental, a "lightning energy" elemental (similar to Jonni Thunder ), and a "dark energy" elemental (similar to Negative Man )
Aaron can either change his own form into one of these elemental manifestations, or manifest any or all of them separately from himself.

10 Jabberwocky
Real Name: Princess Daina Wynzorr
Parents: Reep Daggle (Chameleon) and Jeka Wynzorr (Sensor)
She has the ability to alter or disguise any object or individual, without changing its mass. Her powers appear superficially similar to Chameleon Chief, but are magical in origin.
While Daina's own natural form is a horrific blending of Durlan and Hypertaxized Orandan physiology, she was able to permanently restore her mother to normal Orandan serpent-form, to her great relief.
Technically a princess, her "kingdom" no longer exists.

11 Ryu
Real Name: Ryu Armorr
Parents: Val Armorr (Karate Kid) and Jenni Ognats (XS)
He has no connection to the Speed Force. He apparently has not super-abilities at all. Overweight, lazy, and edacious, he is a great disappointment to his father. He shows no interest in the martial arts, neither the physical nor the spiritual side. The New New Wanderers do keep him around as a kind of mascot, however, due to his natural cheerful temperament and careless hedonism.

12 Imago
Real Name: Ti'Julk Sh'Aszi
Parents: Ti'Julk Mr'Asz (Gates)and Shikari Lonestar
Mostly humanoid in appearance, grey-skinned and green-haired, with a spiky tail/abdomen, her odd Kwai-Vrygan physiology allows her to reach into the virtual world of quantum probability, and create Imago-Replicants of both inanimate objects and living individuals.
These Imago-Replicants are more powerful, intelligent, and generally morally superior than the originals. In fact, in comparison with the Imago-Replicant the original looks like a Bizarro-Duplicate.
Limitations: (1) The existence of the Imago-Replicants is temporary, only a few hous. (2) Only one Imago-Replicant can be created at one time. (3) She has no control over the behavior or decisions of her living creations.

Definition: IMAGO: (1) the final stage of metamorphosis of an insect (2) in psychology, an idealized image of someone (usually a parent) formed in childhood.

13 She Came From Planet Claire
I know she came from there. She drove a Plymouth Satellite faster than the speed of light. Planet Claire has pink hair, and all the trees are red. No one ever dies there; no one has a head. Some say she's from Mars, or one of the seven stars that shine after 3:30 in the morning. Well she isn't.

Graphically-challenged as I am, I tried to put together a few Hero Machines of these characters here .

Those Hero Machine pictures are funny. Everyone looks like they should be holding a gun!

I have tried on occasion to use the City of Heroes or Champions Online character builders, but they never quite look 'right' enough and I just get frustrated. You must be way more patient than I am!

Phase Nine and Imago are very interesting. (Phase Nine almost seems to be connected to the Exorian twins idea...) FalconFire as a Phoenix / Jean Grey homage is fun.

Mixing Vi and Andy to get an Iron Giant, 'though? Inspired!

Lots of interesting and wierd characters in this bunch!
I enjoyed the pictures, too.

My favorites are:

1. Jabberwocky, who looks like Jabba the Hut, kind of.

2. She Came from Planet Claire, very strange and unrelated to the New Wanderers in origin, I guess. Where's Konk when we need her. She could be the opposite of Double Header.


3. Imago, very strange. I was hoping for someone more beautiful from that union, which could be said, by me, of Jabberwocky, too.

4. Pandora, any Dox combo is fun, imo.

5. Cub, I love Cub.

Question, why does Star Girl have Daxamite powers?

Candis isn't just mindblind- she is mind-silent! If only the best telepaths can sense her thoughts, this would make her essentially mentally-invisible to most telepaths.

Not such a big deal in our world, but pretty useful in a universe full of mind-readers!

Daxamite-like powers: like her father's original comet-granted super-powers, which at first put him on a level with Superboy.

She Came From Planet Claire

Ahhh!
And I don't wonder that I hadn't heard of Planet Claire before!
lol
I'm a Josh Grobin and Keith Green fan.
!

Very interesting, though, rather like the character you invented!

Yes, Synapse works better.

*nods-nods* Seeing the Legionnaires do exhibitions for charity would be cool!

The racing thing came a bit from the postboot depiction of Winath, from when Ayla was telling her origin story to the kids touring Legion HQ? It looked more like a 1950's sock-hop during the dancing panel, than the "clothing optional" lifestyle the world had before the timeline got revamped.
So what would a rebel kid be doing in the 1950's? Hot rod racing!

Sort of like a Data Holmes or something.

I'd seen the show a few times, but not for ages. Course if you had a 12th-level intellect dedicated to detective work, who'd stand a chance?

Well I figured that something new could work?
