My ‘main’ character Clotho on Victory has received a number of tells or requests to ‘put in a good word with Atropos’. This has given me an idea: a themed Supergroup, Aspects of Fate. Entry requirements, be named along the lines of Greek or Roman mythology, with the suggestion of a magically derived power source.

Main goal, destruction of the undead Valizokhov.

Who would be interested in such a thing (also as an alternative to the science themed ‘anti-hero’ group now forming)?

Also may make a good comeptitive group depending on how 'City of Villains' plays out. 8)

I picked 5th column for the themed group because everyone says they love to fight them nazis. I would have picked whatever group the concensus said they loved to fight. I'm up for any themed supergroup though, I like having a diverse range of characters.

I actually formed a SG w/ a real life bud of mine called:

M.A.D.A.S.S

Minorities Against Discrimination Among SuperheroS

We're having a blast.  Robots, women, and our darker skinned cousins all welcome.  Evil Nazi-Image bastards not.

Even just a Greek/Roman overall them (Gods, heroes, etc) would be fun.

That could work as well.

Achilles, Hera or Mars anyone?

Heracles, Theseus...there are a ton of cool ideas. Might have to tinker with character creation when I have some spare time =)

Better get those names posthaste. I was working on some ideas for a couple norsemen and ended up making The Almighty Odin because Odin and Woden were taken.

We could also make a joke guild based on trademarked characters if Cryptic is going to let those fly.

I get a perverse pleasure out of my newest creation.....Captain A-Hole, modelled after Captain America. I find it incredibly rich how so many people turn into a-holes around him. I don't play him like an A-Hole, but everyone assumes I do.

Well, I do try to stay in character with him...
