Let's try...
Enwa is a planet of yellow-skinned humanoids with large eyes designed to help them function during the long Enwan night.
The mysterious heroine known as Catseye had a sister who, along with her Terran lover, were killed by White Triangle terrorists (this is canon, check Legionnaires 27 for details!). Catseye used her special ability to reflect light with her eyes and tracked down the four Daxamites who ravaged Earth and destroyed Trom, punishing them severely when the Legion stranded them on a red sun planet (Legionnaires Annual 2). It was said that when the SPs finally picked them up, all 4 had become gibbering messes of themselves. They do not sleep well even until now.
In addition to being able to cast light beams from her eyes, Catseye has impressive acrobatic and physical combat skills. Her light-reflecting abilities range from gentle ambient light to full-on lasers capable of tearing through metal. Catseye has made it her mission to track down all members of the White Triangle who were involved in terrorist acts - especially the ones who murdered Trom.
Love it Ib and your bringing the PZH legion as always!
i like her ability and that its through her eyes and not her hands!

Fen'ec (fox)- an expert tracker due to his heightened sense of smell,eye sight, hearing( which he has extra large ears, making his face seem smaller) and a sixth sense of sorts.He can't explain how it works, it was just something he was born with. but in combination with his other sense he can track almost anyone on the planet. He also small and agile; which allows him to move quickly. his tale is long fluffy and his fur covers his whole body and allows him to with stand high temperatures.
He's the youngest of the Cho'per's strike force. even though he's the youngest, he was one of the first to join. he was actually the one who saved Cho'per from the cave in. He stayed with Cho'per through his rehabilitation and was like a side kick for him. He formed a strong bond with Cho'per.
Fen'ec has chosen not to take a hero name
W'ip(moles)- Like other moles he is able to burrow through almost any surface, he has sharp claws which are retractable, but he can't see for anything. his eye sight is so bad that he actually has goggles that magnify his sight, as well as. but in pitch black he can see perfectly.
he's the technician of the group and uses his skills to build various devices for the team. he's greatest contribution has been a transport vehicle; which is strong as a tank but quick and agile. the vehicle is in the shape of giant ball with a wheel around it. the metal is triple enforced Titanium allow, they stole from McCaulney's own plants. He outfitted it with laser capabilities, with rapid fire controls.
W'ip's reasons for joining the strike force, come from his families deaths. Him and his family were passing through the G'be forest, when McCaulney's forces were downsizing(leveling and vaporizing everything in their path) it. they were making way for their new plant. The G'be forest was home to St'r city; a large attraction for most in the southern hemisphere.Even though its not that large of a city it was one of the few cities that used its large reservoir to its fullest; it powered everything in the city. W'ip and his family were there sight seeing. unfortunately they didn't get to see many sights before it was downsized. W'ip watched as they were downsized as McMaulney's forces invaded the city as if it wasn't there at all. using his burrowing abilities burrowed deep enough before getting downsized himself. when he came back up there was nothing left. he wondered the raged St'r city for hours evading McMaulney's forces. He came upon Ch'oper and Fen'ec by accident. they almost attacked him. but when he feel over in tears. taking him in he's been with them since, putting his skills to use.
-------------------- read the adventures of the Reboot Legion!
Spr't(Bear)- once a member of the R'ibo bear tribe in the southern hemisphere, Spr't died many eons ago. but his spirit never left this plain because his people charged him with protecting their sacred burial grounds. As McMaulney's forces downsized much of the Southern Hemisphere and built various power plants they built their complexes on top of the very burial grounds that he swore to protect.
his form, shows up as a big black bear shadow and when he passes through anything mechanical he shorts it out completely or he can posses it. he tried this trick many times over, when the power plants first emerged He can teleport himself places as well and can be invisible when he wants. his ghostly form is just as grizzly as his corporal body was, over 6 feet tall, with black and red hair that is thick and course it grows every which way.
As he tried to communicate with and force people to leave, he learned Interlac and eventually came across Cho'per and his team. he followed them back to their headquarters and continued to follow them on missions. During a mission that went wrong and the team was almost caught in their own explosion of a power plant, Spr't used his ghostly ability to transport himself and the team out of the plant. At first they were scared of him but as he stuck around more they learned of his caring nature and his loyalty to helping them ride the southern hemisphere of McMaulney's influence.
Y'lp (eagle)- the only female member of Cho'per's team, she's also the latest edition to the team. she is very agile and has the ability to fly like most of the other eagles of her species. but she has an extra ability, her wings are capable of shooting her feathers at high velocities; turning them into sharp blades. her talons are also sharp as well but average in strength.
Y'lp joined Cho'per's forces after she tried to picket McMaulney's forces and fight for her people. when she was arrested she broke herself out using her wings to help her escape. now a fugitive from the McMaulney's forces and the local authorities.

Jaluur of Tsauron, aka Sightseer, knows that he has an uphill struggle to overcome racial prejudice as a hero, thanks to the most (in)famous member of his race being the Dark Circle conspirator and terrorist Ontiir, who led many on his homeworld to support subverting and overthrowing the United Planets, but he refuses to hide his face or remain on the homeworld, travelling across U.P. space to use his psychic abilities on behalf of those in need, as sort of one-man goodwill ambassador.
Rarely, on Tsauron, a child is 'born from a dark egg,' one that traditionally has failed to thrive and contains no living child, and such children are often sickly creatures, as if their early brush with death has left them forever a half-step away from their last breath, but also with strange spiritual and psychic insights.
Jaluur was such a child, increasingly rare in these days of advanced medicine, and has the ability to seperate his soul from his body for brief times, allowing him to astrally project his spirit up to 186,000 miles from his body, in the blink of an eye, and to remain viewing an area remotely for up to six minutes. During this time, his body lies in a death-like state, motionless and unbreathing, but his spirit can not just remotely observe distant locations, but also become visible to communicate telepathically with those present, or even possess other living beings, making them into his unwitting puppets.
In addition to these clairvoyant talents, he has a limited and uncontrolled gift for sensing powerful psychic events or emotional impressions, even over gulfs of space or time, much like psychometry or precognition, but far less reliable than a Naltorian's insights, and generally only serving to give him a notion of where his talents would be most needed, when he finishes a mission and heads for the local spaceport to make his departure.
His thick scaly hide, intimidating natural weaponry and lean, yet muscular body gives the impression that he is a physical powerhouse (although he is of slighter build than the average Tsauron, due to the circumstances of his birth), and he is indeed marginally stronger (and notably more durable) than a human, but he is no match for even the weakest of superhuman combatants, instead relying on his ability to seize control of others in the blink of an eye, his own body falling over insensate as he usurps control of the most dangerous adversary present, and uses their talents against any others that endanger himself or those he has arrived to protect.
His most notable mundane skill, other than a knack for 'reading' people and getting a sense of their nature's, is a facility for languages. Even without a translation matrix, Jaluur has mastered seventeen individual languages, apart from Interlac (including the three most common Tsauron dialects), and enjoys speaking to aliens he encounters in their native tongues, using a mastery of idiom and diction that no translation program can match.

Not all of the mutants of Lallor chose the right side of the rebellion against the dictatorial regime.
Nad Ganra, aka Agent X served the government even after the others rebelled and were imprisoned, having been tricked into believing that his fellow mutants had become traitors to the 'benevolent' lawful government, and were anarchists, mad with power, attempting to return Lallor to the chaos of the post-war years.
His government handlers kept him in seclusion, in one of the tall towers of the capitol city, and censored every bit of information that came into his spacious penthouse home, keeping him shut in and isolated from any news that might conflict with the propoganda they were feeding him, by rumors that his former fellow mutants wished to assassinate him, among other methods.
The whole time, they exploited his mutant powers, to emit 'radiation X,' a dull reddish glow that was harmless to organic life or machinery, but caused any object or creature exposed to it to become at first translucent, layer by layer, and then finally invisible, for up to 24 hours after initial exposure, allowing the despotic regime to bring 'Agent X' their secret weaponry, covert agents and secret police, to be rendered invisible, the better to spy upon their own citizens, and strike unseen, to blame their own acts of aggression on partisan rabble-rousers, anarchists and terrorists, to better convince the frightened citizenry that their draconian and cruel security measures were 'necessary, for your protection!'
Of lesser use to the regime was Ganra's ability to produce the pale blue 'anti-X radiation,' that caused invisible things in his area to become visible, even to the extent of being able to create what appeared to be blue-gray banks of thick concealing fog, by making the air itself visible to the human eye.
After the Heroes of Lallor, with the help of the Legion of Super-Heroes, freed their world from the oppressive regime, Agent X was taken into custody, and over the next years of imprisonment, learned the truth of the regime he had supported, and the terrible uses to which those he had made invisible had been put.
Now, regretful of his past deeds, he has been released to serve alongside the Heroes of Lallor, on a probationary basis, carrying an assortment of nonlethal weapons and wearing protective armor that he has rendered invisible with his X-radiation, giving those unaware of the nature of his powers the impression that he is invulnerable and can shoot blasts of stunning electricity from his hands, while saving his talent for making himself and his new allies invisible to surprise their foes.

Kahloans - Kahloans are the indigenous people of the planet Kahlo. Many Kahloans are addicted to Belamort, a psychotropic plant.
Kahloans are a humanoid species with green skin, and they are all have slightly elongated necks and limbs.
Detox-as there are many on the planet who are addicted to the psychotropic plant; the Belamort, it causes various reactions. Once such reaction is the villain Detox. Due to the large amounts of Belamort he was taking, he built up an immunity to its psychotropic effects. But he gained the ability to drain people of their psychotropic effects and cast them into an almost lethargic state of being, potentially even reducing them to a catatonic state. His ability is much like a hunger. he hungers for the Belamort affects. But even when he drains others he doesn't attain the desired affects but his hunger is satiated. His ability only works on those who are "tripping" on Belamort.
He was a low level drug pusher, when he accepted a job from his bosses to be a tester for a new strain of Belamort.after the final trial he began to developed his abilities. The drug company that was developing the drug, was working to make it a more poitent strain to sell on the black market and to sell it intergalacticly for recreational use, as Belamort is legal on Kahlo. Detox, or Gral as he was known then, entered into a coma like state for several days. when he awoke, he was in a medical ward with other patients who were "tripping" on the Belamort. As he began to stir he started to feel hungry but it wasn't a normal kind of hunger. it was a hunger for Belamort. as he looked around he began to drain the patients. at first he was horrified, but as he fed his hunger lapsed and he grew to liking taking peoples effects.
as he learned how to control his ability he began to use it to help him rob drug dealers, and the wealthy of their fortunes. building his own criminal network.

Belamort = beautiful death? Neat.
Detox may not be a hero, as written, but if he learns to manage his own hunger, and refine his abilities, he could be a one-man cure for the addiction (or various other addictions?). His current status as more of a predator-upon-addicts is made a bit more tragic, given the beneficial and healing potential of his abilities...

Thanks! It was inspired by the backstory behind the Heroes of Lallor, five 'mutants' imprisoned by a dictatorial regime on their homeworld. I just added the potential for their being more 'mutants,' and for some of them to have been on the 'wrong side.' (Pro-jackbooted-imperials, anti-rebel-scum.)
His power, to use 'x-radiation' to make other things transparent was meant to evoke those classic '60s powers, like being able to shoot X-rays at people and make them transparent (which, we know today, would just give them freakish amounts of cancer...).
Anti-X-radiation, able to make invisible things (even air!) visible and opaque, was the 'comic-book-logic' reverse of that Silver Age 'Science!'

One thousand years after their royal caste was nearly rendered extinct by ruthless aggressors, the Exorian race has adapted to prevent such a tragedy from ever occuring.
Where the rare royals once travelled in twin-pairs, and could only trigger their fantastic shapeshifting powers by contacting their sibling, this vulnerability was deemed too risky, and, ten centuries later, there are now several dozen royals, scattered across the seven worlds that the Exorians have jointly colonized along with allied UP races, so that no one catastophe can threaten their species. In addition, each royal is a single entity, androgynous and hermaphroditic, able to trigger it's own shapeshifting talents without the presence of a second royal.
Most Exorian royals remain on the worlds that their people have settled, but a few travel the stars as emissaries, part of their peoples plan for continued survival, to integrate themselves as thoroughly into intergalactic society as they can, and the most famous Exorian royal is Reyka, an Exorian shifter famous for hir humanitarian endeavors, and hir unique talent for shapeshifting into various mechanical forms, including, for personal transportation, a small one-person spacecraft!
Like all Exorian royals, Reyka's shifting is limited, in hir case to machinery not much larger than hir trademark scout ship form, but s/he keeps extremely up to date on current mechanical innovations, and can take the form of life-saving medical machines, utilitarian earth-moving or construction devices, various types of transport vehicle, life support modules, and, in defense of those who cannot defend themselves from aggression, combat-grade war-machines and shockingly effective weapons platforms!

The Barrions of Barrio III are silicon based lifeforms. They are a race of round crystalline spheres, with eyes and fully functional appendages that have sharp talon like fingers and resemble thick black cables. they can also stretch to up to a 3 feet radius.
The people of Barrio III, have kept to themselves over the last thousand years. after the Green Lantern Corps disbanded and their representative, Chaselon went missing in action. they have recently signed a treaty with the United Planets, joining officially.
Their spherical shapes haven't changed in the 1000 years since last the galaxy saw them. But something has changed. several of them have begun to develop various abilities. The most common of these abilities is extreme durability. Others are Telepathy, and Light manipulation.
As Barrions are generally accepting of all their people, they have used their resources to help train people with these powers to be useful in society as well as potentially be heroes. As they are inspired by Chaselon, good example. He is like their Superman.
Shazlon- one of the extremely durable type. Shazlon is known as Sphereica; because she's able to retract her appendages and be a complete sphere, she uses her durability to roll over her opponents and take them out with ease. She's also been put to work to help clear tree's from forest for development. she hopes to learn how to expand her durability and see how far she can push it. Shazlon is a bit of an adrenalin junky and loves pushing herself to the limit. He next quest is to see how she fares against a volcanic eruption. One of her reasons for pushing herself so hard is because she knows she's not the only one who posses great durability, so she strives to push herself to the peak and do the best she can. She has hopes of leaving Barrio III someday to see what else she can do with the her extreme durability. She's hoping this treaty with the U.P. will help her do this.
