Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes Rewrite Legion History-- 2010 Edition!

Based on your second option, having the aquatic race be the Hyrkrains, who are in the process of purging themselves of spiritual taint using a telapathically shared communal dream, utterly unaware that their unconscious selves are manifesting as malignant psychic entities in the real world. As they 'fight off evil spirits' as part of their once-a-millenium spiritual purge of all that is wicked and selfish within themselves, their internal battle is reflected in the real world by actual psychic entities wreaking havoc on some poor unsuspecting world (essentially sacrificing another world, in the attempt to purge themselves of their darker impulses, all un-beknownst to them).

Wouldn't it be funny if the Legion had to defeat the Hykraians by waking them up?

I wonder if Hykraians are ticklish!

By the way, when are we going to pick the last three Legionnaires?

Thanks for responding Set and IB. I had another idea to post if no one had commented yet. I like the idea of using the Hykranians (although I like the idea of the Saturn Dominatrix better).

I don't think we should finish the 25 until we've had some adventures. We might have some people show up through the course of events that are incredibly heroic and deserve membership. And if a few die off, we could have a try-outs, and wouldn't that be fum to write?

Yeah, that's what I've been thinking as far as membership goes.

Sorry I've been a little distracted by other things the past few days. I'll get back fully into rewriting mode this weekend.

Yep, had a feeling this one was going to die, just like the last one did...

So... SOMEBODY had to take the place of Ferro Lad and make the sacrifice against the Sun-Eater... but who?? Which 5 Legionnaires battled the Sun-Eater?!?

Jeckie was there for the original story, so she stays...

Satan Girl/Laurel can sub for Superboy...

Sun Boy could be replaced in this reality by Mekt...

Cosmic Boy doesn't have a really clear counterpart powerswise... maybe Cera/Push or Tellus?

leaving who to make the Ferro Lad sacrifice?

I submit either Anti-Lad or Duplicate Boy. I think both of them would feel like their powers might be enough to survive...

I vote Dupe!

I vote for Nurse Girl because there is a good chance that she might be able to survive the Sun-Eater with her healing powers.

Wait... wait... tradition dictates that we first induct four new members, expel one as a traitor, and then one of them dies fighting the Sun-Eater!

I submit either FALSE PRETENSES LAD or CHARMA as the traitor.

Keeping with my thoery that either ANTI-LAD or DUPLICATE BOY take the place of Ferro Lad in the Suneater story, and that FALSE PRETENSES LAD or CHARMA is the traitor, I would need to select 4 members that joined alongside each other in the master list that includes 1 of each of the 2.

So I submit:

If FALSE PRETENSES LAD is the traitor and ANTI-LAD dies fighting the Suneater, the 4 who joined together are:

9. Anti-Lad 10. Calorie Queen 11. Nurse Girl 12. False Pretenses Lad


IF the traitor is either FALSE PRETENSES LAD *or* CHARMA and DUPLICATE BOY dies fighting the Suneater, I submit:

12. False Pretenses Lad 13. Charma 14. Duplicate Boy 15. Push


I think the 2nd scenario has more potential as to wether F.P.Lad or Charma is the traitor.

Er... I meant we should pick four *new* members, and then choose the traitor/sacrifice, but whatever people want to do...

Ooops! Didn't quite get it, sorry!

So.... who picks the 4 new members???

If it's us, then I say...

first new addition, 1 of which is a traitor and 1 oh which will die heroically:

QUAKE KID

Gates (and I happily stand corrected!)

Of course it is!

By the way, I suppose this means that we're re-ordering Legion history so that our Sun-Eater Saga occurs second-yearish, as their next major adventure after the defeat of the Wraith-Mate Invasion!

Lume as the third new member!

If we are adding a few new characters, I'd like to submit Zmyr.

Every team could use a Gil'Dishpan!

Okay, so our "Shooter Four" are Quake Kid, Gates, Lume, and Zymyr!

Three non-humanoids, and a dude who'd probably like to sleep with the other three!

I guess I'll have to post another poll to iron out details!

Let's see, we'll need to choose one as a traitor, one as a sacrifice to the Sun-Eater, we need other heroes to face the Sun-Eater, oh wait... we don't have a Fatal Five yet, do we?

Let's pick the Fatal Five!

I'll start with Mordecai!

I almost said Zmyr, because I want non-human members and a teleporter is always helpful, but I went with Gates to bring in a former legionnaire with appeal to the group at large. I'll retract Gates and suggest Kent Shakespeare- Impulse. And I'll even suggest that he be the one to make th ultimate sacrifice, thinking he could either outrace the effects of the Sun-eater, or survive them.

Oh, i hadn't seen your last two posts, EDE. I'm cool with leaving Gates in. Ddn't someone already suggest candidates for the Fatal Five? Let me go back and look...

Since Zymr and Gates have the same powers, I'd propose making Zymr more of a technologist / team scientist, whose portals are a function of Gil'Dishpan technology.

Alternately, Zymyr could be dropped and replaced with someone less similar to Gates.

We could make Zymyr a kind of techno-empath or whatever they're called. Like Danielle Foccart?

We're talking over each other EDE. You make the call, I'll shut up.

And the suggestions I was thinking of weren't Fatal Five necessarily, but kidflash2's 5 Greatest criminals in th universe- Brainiac 5, Element Lad, Chameleon Boy, Ultra Boy, and... I forget, so never mind
