Re: Jab's Builds! (Brainiac 5! White Witch! Kinetix! Supergirl! Element Lad!)
Yeah, some of the images I saw were rather... silly. Like this giant cave-woman creature wearing a slinky dress acting like she felt beautiful. It COULD be empowering... but just comes off as weird.Bladewind wrote: ↑Wed Apr 25, 2018 11:57 am So she went from feminized Hulk to humanized She-Thing?
I was staunchly in the hate the character camp. I found that they were trying too hard to show Monstress as still being "ladylike" (whatever that's supposed to mean) while still being powerful and empowered. (Neither concept of which I take any issue, it just felt like a parody of itself in a series that was already cheesie.)

Re: Jab's Builds! (Brainiac 5! White Witch! Kinetix! Supergirl! Element Lad!)
So as you can probably all tell, today has been "Filler Legionnaire Day", owing to the fact that I decided to break up the "Minor Legionnaires" Template I made five years ago, and give solo bios to many of the characters. It was something I did because I felt that Kent & Comet Queen in particular needed separate bios, as the old one had 20+ characters. It was only after doing like 10 bios in a row that I realized HOW MUCH WORK splitting them all up was (the old bios also lacked Created By & First Appearance notes), but I powered through most of them.
This was, shockingly, going to be done as if it were ONE bio in my initial plans, until I realized they'd bury the other two "important Legionnaire" builds if I did so. And man, I'm still not even finished...
The reason I didn't just pile 'em onto the end was that I wanted my summation of the builds to not be buried in these bios, and since I'm statting some lesser-known villains right afterwards, I wanted to not end the Legion themselves with their lesser-known characters.

-Catspaw is your everyday Animalistic Character in the "Glorithverse" era of the Legion (Time Trapper's minion created an alternate universe), gaining her powers as a result of The Dominators who were controlling Earth at the time. She's apparently a bit of a flirt, with hints of "Berserker Rages", going by others.

Re: Jab's Builds! (Brainiac 5! White Witch! Kinetix! Supergirl! Element Lad!)
I remember her as being more flirty than grumpy, but that's the only memory I have of her, so maybe not. (Also that's a name up there with the Mandarin for unintended silliness.)
"I'm sorry. I love you. I'm not sorry I love you."
Re: Jab's Builds! (Brainiac 5! White Witch! Kinetix! Supergirl! Element Lad!)
No, flirty was her general portrayal, along with her weird way of speaking and a mild form of Wolverine-style berserker rage.
As for Comet Queen, she basically looks like someone went "Hey, remember Nova? The sexy female herald of Galactus? Want to see if we can make her unappealing?"
"My heart is as light as a child's, a feeling I'd nearly forgotten. And by helping those in need, I will be able to keep that feeling alive."

Ah, OK. She's grimacing in most of the pictures I can find, so I think that's where I got the idea she was a grump/Timber Wolf type.

I suspect it would probably be fair to use the Magic array of Dragoneye (from the Sentinels/Emerald City).

-There's a group of four Khund super-characters who were used to briefly join the team- most were pretty rotten.
Khund Legionnaires:
FIREFIST- PL 8 (120):
"Cybernetics" Strength 8, Stamina 6 [8]
Senses 1 (Low-Light Vision) [1]
Protection 2 [2]
Blast 8 (Extras: Multiattack) [24]
-A rarity in Legion history- a Khund ALLIED with the Legion! However, he was also a giant a-hole, and often ripped on his teammates during their mission, and got blown up when he attacked Reflecto, unaware that hisi powers let him bounce attacks back and the attacker. He survived and was rebuilt, later trying to kill the Legion again.
VEILMIST- PL 8 (116):
Teleport 10 (Extras: Affects Others) [30]
"Khundian Physiology" Strength 5, Stamina 5 [10]
Senses 1 (Low-Light Vision) [1]

BLOOD CLAW- PL 8 (98):
Features 1: Unbreakable Claws [1]
Senses 1 (Low-Light Vision) [1]
"Claws" Strength-Damage +3 (Feats: Penetrating 8) [11]
-I can only assume that the guy with Indestructible Claws was a Wolverine knock-off.
FLEDERWEB- PL 8 (95):
Flight 5 (60 mph) (Flaws: Winged) [5]
Movement 2 (Wall-Crawling 2) [4]
Senses 1 (Low-Light Vision) [1]
-A winged guy who could cling to walls, Flederweb was being forced by The Khunds into loyalty via a cybernetic collar. Eventually, he split from the Khunds and joined The Heroes of Lallor.

Re: Dragonmage
If my memory is worth anything, I read the first half dozen of the Legionnaires book when it came out and Dragonmage was pretty much your standard "do anything mage" type, but all his spells manifested as dragons (hence the name). Need something big lifted? Big ass dragon appears & lifts it up. Need some of the team moved somewhere else? Giant dragon appears for everyone to ride on. A collapsing wall about to crush bystanders? He calls up a huge dragon to hold it up. Bad guy needs blasted? He conjures a large dragon to breath "fire" at them.Jabroniville wrote: ↑Thu Apr 26, 2018 7:26 am

You get the idea.
The other thing about Dragonmage is he had "control problems" as in sometimes his spells would get away from him and turn destructive to the area.
