From the Sorcerer's World, Ferro is the name given to the nigh-indestructible millenia-old humanoid iron construct, known as a golem, that serves and protects the witches and wizards of Zeerox.

Despite having been created as a mindless automaton, over many centuries, he has developed a personality, possibly the result of exposure to so many potent mystical forces, and has memories of events recorded in no history book, secrets that he safeguards, using his immunity to magical forces, and to the mind-reading abilities of telepaths to serve as a sort of 'forbidden archive' of arcane lore too sensitive to trust to any other form of recording.

Ferro has joined the Legion alongside his young ward, the heir to the magics of the Sorcerer's World, Mysa Nal, the Silver Sorceress, who uses mirrors and reflective surfaces crystals to both scry distant places (and even times!), and to transport herself and others, but also to create 'mirror images' of people, places or things, which she can manipulate to cause sympathetic changes in the items she has 'reflected,' causing foes to be stretched like taffy, or reduced in size, as if causing the distortions of a funhouse mirror to become real and reflected upon the subjects.

Unlike some sorcerers past, Mysa recognizes the ancient soul that has taken root within her massive protector, and that he is no mere arcane servitor or lumbering guardsman, but considers him instead her closest friend and must trusted confidante.

oh man i really thought this was actually Ferro! but i can see the Blok angle.

but i will say i was hoping it would be actually Ferro! i thought that would have added a new dimension to the characters relationships!

Shadow Lass: Tasmia Mallor is the Planetary Champion of Talok VIII. Her power has been passed down from mother to daughter for millenia. Tasmia can change her body into a shadow form. While in shadow form, she is unaffected by any physical object and even gas. Lasers and high intensity beams of light can disrupt the shadow form reverting her back to human form. She can also travel from shadow to shadow - a kind of teleportation.

Andromeda- from Lume a star sprite that has the ability to glow with an intense light.She has two forms, a normal sized human form, that doesn't give off much light, but can generate large amounts of heat. but in her smaller sprightly form; which looks like a glowing stream of white light,she doesn't generate much heat. but blinding light.

her strength is 2 times greater than the average human.

When the legion was forming, one of their first big missions was to Lume. Lume is a broader world between the U.P. and the Krundian empire. The Legion was chosen to be good will ambassadors along with the current U.P. president.
While the Legion was their the Krundian empire invaded. The legion helped defend off the Krundian troops. Several Luminian's tried to help the Legion in their fight. Andromeda was one of them. She led the other Luminaian's and helped coordinate their attacks.
After the Legion and the Luminaian's defeated the Krudian's, Lume agreed to a peace treaty and joined with the U.P. officially. To show good faith the Legion asked Andromeda to join right there and then.

I am really liking these alternates! It's like we're creating our own Tangent universe LSH! [Big Grin]

Lightning Lad/Lightning Lass: The lifeless world of Korbal is renown for the devastatingly powerful storms which constantly rage across its surface. The next closest planet in Korbal's system is Winath, a world just like any other populated world in the UP with the notable exception that it has a much higher incidence of twin births than the UP average.

Mekt Ranzz was a rare single birth on Winath, and as he grew towards adulthood it was suspected that he was also schizophrenic. He heard voices in his head and began to develop an unhealthy obsession with Korbal (a common focus for schizophrenics on Winath for some reason). One day, Mekt stole the family cruiser to visit Korbal for himself. His younger siblings Garth and Ayla went along to try and stop him, but to no avail.

When they entered Korbal's atmosphere, an intense blast of lightning tore their ship apart. It was then that the Ranzzes discovered the truth; The atmospheric energy discharges of Korbal are its native lifeforms. The lightning creatures often pooled their resources to try and communicate with their neighbouring world telepathically, but the Winathian authorities had always explained this away as the ravings of unbalanced Winathian minds.

Now that they could actually make physical contact for the first time, the lightning creatures reached out. One of the creatures merged with the form of Mekt Ranzz, another merged together with Garth and Ayla. The lightning creatures meant no harm, but they didn't realise that their energy matrix was far too powerful for any one person to safely sustain. Realising their error in judgement, the lightning creatures vowed never to do this again...it was too late for the Ranzzes however, who were now permanently transformed.

As a result of their union with the lightning creatures, the Ranzzes can now shift into the form of a living lightning bolt whenever they want. In this form, they are pure energy. They can release this energy in destructive blasts, or to power equipment, but they have none of the advantages of human physicality. This merger drove Mekt fully insane, but Ayla and Garth's minds bonded together with the second lightning creature were stable enough that they kept their core personalities.

A quirky side-effect of Garth and Ayla's new combined form is that they don't really have enough control to dictate whether Garth or Ayla's physical form will take dominance when they're not transformed into lightning; Lightning Lad and Lightning Lass share the unique position of having one Legion membership between the two of them, depending on whose body happens to be sitting in the chair at any given moment.

In human form, Lightning Lad/Lightning Lass are more or less powerless (though the unique make-up of their psyche gives them a higher than normal psychic defence, and they have a natural ability to sense electrical energy in their vicinity). In their lightning form though, they are one/two of the Legion's most powerful members.

Let's try...

Sensor Girl of Orando acts as an early-warning device. She can prime herself to detect any of a number of things - evil thoughts, natural calamities, invisible and mystical beings. She can instantly detect the soource of whatver she has primed herself, and instantly transport herself and up to 2 others there. She can also adapt a superpower that will enable her to neutralize said threat - the catch is, she doesn't gain complete mastery of said power right away!

how does she prime herself??? very curious about that.
She has to attune all her senses to whatever it is she is set to detect. But she can only detect one thing at a time, much like how Dawnstar has to track one thing at a time.

Cool idea!

I am unsure about what you mean with this part, 'though.

1) Garth and Ayla have only one lightning form that they share between them, and when one is transformed, the other cannot transform and is 'stuck' in human form.

2) There is only ever one of them in existence at a time, either a lightning person (who could have the personality of one or the other), or, when it reverts to human form, either Garth, or Ayla (depending on whose personality was dominant at the time). In this second case, Garth and Ayla might only ever 'meet' in their lightniing form, which may or may not combine both of their personalities / souls, since only one of them can physically exist at any time.

I suspect the first option was what you meant, but either would be interesting.

Cool power, more like Obsidian than 'our' Tasmia.

She *might* be able to move at the speed of light, in shadow form, although be unable to leave a solid surface (sort of like a real shadow, moving across the ground, the sides of buildings, etc.).

Her logical 'attack' in shadowform would be to crawl all over someone until her shadowy self covers their face, rendering them blind. It's possible that, like a real shadow, she can also change her size and, to a limited extent, shape, as well, while in shadow form...

Fun stuff!

Yes, sorry....I reworded that about 40 times and I still wasn't sure I had it right by the end, obviously not lol [Wink]

The idea is that the same lightning creature merged with Garth AND Ayla. Only one physical form can ever be dominant though, so it's either Garth OR Ayla OR a living lightning bolt (kind of similar to how Martin Stein and Ronny Raymond became Firestorm back in the day....I don't know what the story is with Firestorm these days).

Mentally, they exist as three separate personalities...the lightning creature is really just happy to have new experiences, so its personality never usurps control in any form. Garth is dominant in his body, Ayla is dominant in hers, and when they become lightning they are generally happy to let whomever initiated the change be the dominant personality.

The Lightning Lad/Lightning Lass composite is pretty stable and happy, as opposed to Mekt Ranzz who is crazier than a hat full of monkeys and keeps his own lightning creature subjugated through sheer force of will.

(Necessary disclaimer: Mekt isn't actually schizophrenic, that's just an erroneous assumption made by everyone around him...I just wanted to clarify that so as not to equate schizophrenia with someone being a bat-shit crazy supervillain) [Smile]

Infectious Lass - Drura Ardenn From Titian and a founder of the Legion. Like other Titan's she posses telepathy. but She has the ability to enter peoples minds and infect them with her own will. her control over others can last for a couple hours.
she's able to give both simple and complicated commands.

She refuses to control people into doing violent or immoral things. But in battle she has been forced to use her powers to make her opponents fight each other.

even though she has control over this ability there are many who find her to be very unnerving, especially various members of her team.

there was one instance, when the Fatal Five were attacking her, Lightning Lad/Lass, Star Boy and the Silver Witch. During the battle Infectious Lass lost control and infected her teammates with her will. this infection was ultimately to their advantage, as it made her teammates more determined to prove themselves in a fight.
at that moment her mind was concentrating on how to be more affective in battle against the Fatal five. however this infection lasted longer than she ever intended. because of her determination she pushed her infection to last for the next two days. during which time each of the infected members tried to prove themselves in various ways. Some with disastrous results.

since then, Silver Witch has a spell cast out her to protect her from all psychic intrusion; but its had a slight souring on her disposition and has made her quite irritable as it does not allow her to commune with her friend/Golem Ferro.

Star Boy's proved himself in love and Married Dream Girl.

and Lighting Lad/Lass have been temporarily been un-merged after they faced off against Neutrax; he neutralized them while they were in mid transition of dominate personalities among Garth, Ayla and the Lightning Beast; now the lighting beast is in control and the Razz's are trying to keep it in check, till they can re-merge.

Gates of Vyrga was a persecuted idealist on his homeworld. He fought for freedom, but was forced to go underground because of his beliefs.

While on the run, he was forced to hone his teleportation powers to new heights. Perhaps because of his broad imagination and open-mindedness to ideas, he can now also not only physical objects with pinpoint accuracy, but can also teleport concepts, ideas and abstract imaginings...

He once disabled an opponent by teleporting a small dose of poison into his bloodstream.
He destroyed a powerful droid by teleporting away its mechanical head.

He stopped a serial killer by teleporting his victim's pain and anguish into the killer's mind. He became an effective teacher to his volunteer army by teleporting all he knew about tactics into their minds. He can teleport the images reaching his eyes and the sounds reaching his ears to others, giving them shared senses. He can camouflage entire troops by teleporting the color of nearby objects onto them.

He also finally won his revolution... by teleporting the full text of famed thinker Querl Marxius' On the Free Will of Sentients into the minds of the invading army.

Perhaps his power isn't really teleportation, but a form of reality warping that is still limited, ironically, by the perceptions of time and space that he cannot break through, no matter how open-minded he is...

Zoe Saugin of Aleph only ever wanted to be useful.

This drove her to be a very compassionate soul, helping others in need in order to also feel better about herself.

Sadly, one day she couldn't help the most important person in her life - her mother.

She contacted an aged witch on another planet, one who owed her mother her life. The witch guided her into finding an ancient talisman which COULD give her the power to heal her mother... or destroy her.

Zoe took that risk, and found herself with the power of life.

She can heal others, even those with grievous injuries or debilitating diseases.

She can bring inanimate objects to life, changing their forms and even giving them some semblance of free will limited only be her concentration. This usually manifests through her giving very carefully-worded instructions.

She can even bring drawings and pictures to life (she once brought her brother's drawing of a dragon to life and hastily canceled it before it burned down their house); restore rotted plants and organic material; and has once even helped recharge a powersphere.

She has since joined the Legion as... Kinetix.
