And Frio! I've been wanting to meet you. It's nice to meet someone else with ice powers! I'd take up my offer too! And, thanks Rockhopper Lad. It's lovely to meet you too.

Okay, now we'll all gather round the fire and sing a rousing chorus of "What Would Brian Boitano Do?".

Hi Rockhopper Lad! Just popped in for a sec... Hope you don't mind, but I have to search for Vee and Abin. (scans the area using light powers) Hm... not here... I think I'll have some cocoa before I continue my search, thanks (disappears back into the tesseract system)

And, of course, Hyvvie the Wonder Beagle will immediately be dispatched to patrol the grounds.

This gives me a chance to try my newest power: Snow cleaning! <Gestures over yellow snow, fresh white snow shoots from his hands, PolarBoy's name dissappears>
Ya never know when it might come in handy!

<RHL gathers with friends after returning from Earth-4, calls one of the serving penguins over>
Hot chocolate and warm brandy all around, please.
While we were on Earth-4 I promised I would explain my origin when we got back.
<Snuggles with Hyvvie the Wonder Beagle>
First, yes, my father is the Emperor Penguin (that's a title; he is of the House of Rockhopper), Eudyptes XXVIII. He and my mother, Empress Maris, have two children, my sister Adelie and me.
As you all know, I come from a planet called "Houston", which, by some coincidence is pronouced exactly the same as a city on Earth. We adopted its spelling to honour our Terran friends.
On Planet Houston, sentient life evolved not from apes, but from penguins. You see, penguins evolved on Planet Houston. The penguins you know on earth were brought there aeons ago and evolved in a separate direction. Each of the penguin clans of my world evolved into a different species on Earth.
There were orignally eighteen clans of penguins, two of which, fought each other to extinction millenia ago. Their collateral decendents on Earth are the largest species, the Emperors and the Kings.
The sixteen remaining clans united into one nation, the Penguin Colonies. Clan Rockhopper was chosen by lot to be the ruling clan, and their decendents are my family, the House of Rockhopper.
At first glance, we look like Earth humans, with some important difference. We have hair-like feathers rather than hair. Many of the men of our planet, myself included, grow feathery "goatees" on our faces, which are mostly bare.
We have no teeth. We have bills inside very human looking mouths.
We are hatched from eggs, both parents taking turns watching the egg.
And, yes, like Earth penguins, many of us are attracted to the same sex.
We have webbed feet, over which we have limited shape-shifting abilities. We can change their shape to expand them to resemble skis on which we can travel across the snow.
Centuries ago, the sorcerors of the Colonies, bestowed upon the House of Rockhopper an extraordinary gift. Penguins thrive in the cold and our planet was becoming warmer. We were given the ability to generate cold, to freeze objects and create ice and snow.
The House of Rockhopper have been the champions of the Colonies for time immemorial. With peace and serenity on Planet Houston, I felt my calling was elsewhere and so I came to Legion World to join the LMB.
Any questions?

I think that's the evil one is the Earth-4 version LAM.
I'm off to steal some beer for Everyday Girl.

Originally posted by legionadventureman: What caused your dad to become an evil emporer in the first place, Rockhopper? Nova Girl is correct, LAM. My dad is the benevolent Emperor of the Pengin Colonies of this universe. In the Earth-4 Universe, my own double killed his father and usurped the throne. I guess he's Eudyptes XXIX. As for Openly Gay Lad, I'm sure he and I will see each other again.

Oh dear. I fear this may be the work of the Penguin Interstellar Liberation Action Front (PILAF)! They're pretty scary. This may be the penguin equivalent of Patty Hearst!
But let's not let them spoil the festive mood!

Patty Hearst? Oh, I loved her in "Cry Baby"..."Guess what we're having for dinner - potato au gratin" (a chorus of 'yummy' responds)
