Make your own LXG:

The rules are:
1. Choose five to seven characters.
2. They may be from books, movies, comics, TV shows, games, and real life, but no traditional superheroes (in other words, no "Avengers Assemble!" or "Justice League of America" stuff).
3. They may be from any place on the space-time continuum, and any plane of existence -- characters do not need to exist within the same era and country as in the original
4. You must identify the recruiter, the leader, and the villain, and there must be at least one female.
5. Optional: You may identify their primary means of transport (like Nemo's Nautilus)

would anyone believe i've put more thought to this than i have to some of my papers last semester? *sardonic grin*. after much adjustment and several who dropped by the wayside due to their inability to fit in with the group, these are my final choices.

1. Recruiter: Madeleine, from Nikita. shrewd political mind, eye for organization, completely ruthless.
2. Leader: Echimus, from the Crimson comics. supernatural powers, wisdom of the ages, ego the size of a small city.
3. Celes, from Final Fantasy III. excellent with a sword, ability to deflect magic. i'd give her a symbiotic sword, just to see what she can do... =)
4. Larva, from Vampire Princess Miyu (anime) ~ without the mask. flight, super speed, ability to conjure fire.
5. Gerald Tarrant, from C.S. Friedman's Black Sun Trilogy. vulnerable to sunlight, controls the flow of magic, summons creatures from the dark, supernatural senses, brilliant manipulator and strategist.
6. Faith, from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. physical strength, cunning, and a badass attitude.
7. Villain: Octavian (before he became Augustus Caesar). a ruthless manipulator, desperate to get what he wants and rule the world, and willing to sacrifice anyone and anything to get it (including his own sister).

primary mode of transport: Kenoki, from Tenchi Muyo. small, furry white crabbit with red eyes which transforms into a sentient spaceship with infinite weapons capabilities.

Small city, if you're lucky.
Pity you had to lose the wolfman.

yeah, but he just didn't fit in with the rest of the group. besides, it was Maeniel or Echimus, and Ecchie's got more powers to play with.

i don't even know half the characters on it, but they sound very kewl.

Actually...

I'm moving one guy off the roster. Elric is a bit too whiny for me, I think.
btw, I like your ship. It sounds very... fluffy...

fluffy in crabbit form, yes. kind of crystal-y in ship form though. with lasers. red ones. =)

Tough calls all around.

I'm still not completely sure about my roster. There's a character I would like to have added, but he's not exactly a superhero, but he is heroic in antiheroic times.
On the subject of Crimson , I was going to choose 'the church' as my villain.
So, what do you think of my list, then?

you stole my Larva :(

no i didn't. i just posted him first, therefore he's mine. ha. *sticks out tongue*

besides, as of yesterday, you had no dibs on larva.

[identity profile] belfana.livejournal.com 2003-07-14 10:07 am (UTC)(link)
Yes I did, he was on my list when i showed you.

you never showed me a list. you were still thinking about it when we got into the movie.

Still waiting for other lists.

But I did mention on another LJ how I'd like to see these different groups face off. It only occurs to me now that I didn't exactly pick the best strategist to recruit my group. Powerful, yes. Forward thinking, not so much.
