The Alphabet Squad


Mr. R

Recommended Posts

When I was looking at M&Ms Atlas of the World (I recommend it BTW), their version of UNTIL had a super agent group called the Alphabet Squad.  Now I like the idea but think we can expand it a bit.  This will be a bit like Viper's Dragon Branch or China's Tiger Squad, a group of supers each code named with a letter of the Alphabet.  Some may indeed be super agents (James Bong, Black Widow, Hawkeye) and some will be supers with basic agent training.  

 

Now to the sort of fun part, populating the team.

 

So Agent A

Code name: Angel

Powers: armoured flight suit that mimics wings as well as a suite of offensive and defensive weapons.  

 

Any other suggestions?  

I am thinking we do a letter or two (or three) until we get a good list to populate the team!

We still need a "B".  HMMMMM!

 

Agent B

Code name Belle

 

Like he namesake from the story, Belle is a modern day book worm.  Reads everything and has 100% retention.  This along with her native intelligence has made her a primary investigator on the squad.  Think of her as Batman / Holmes along with a huge amount of Bond like gadgets and devices.

So far we have 

 

Angel (blaster)

Belle (Investigator/ Gadgeteer)

Caterwaul (HTH expert with a blast)

Delta of Venus (Emotion control)

 

 

We need a brick or two as well as a good sample of others.  One caveat is no Patriotic types, as this would be counter to the feel of a UNTIL type team!

M is for Moonstruck.

 

Teeny-bopping time-travelling Loonie (citizen of Luna, aka the Moon), who has traveled to the past for mysterious purposes. She positively gushes at how retro the past is and how cute everything on Earth is. And she falls in and out of love at the drop of a hat. Any hat.

 

Her main power is that she manifests and accelerates "moon rocks" at her targets. Though she is also a gifted "inventor", if you can call "remembering how things are built" inventing.

 

She doesn't seem to be at all concerned about the ramifications of meddling in the past. Some people think that's because she can't focus long enough to worry about anything. Other people are concerned that the future is likely screwed up enough that any changes she could possibly make would be a vast improvement.

 

Being a Loonie, she's rather tall and willowy compared to most Earthlings. But it gives her an ethereal beauty rather than coming across as strange. She is also much more strong and resilient than her frame would suggest.

K stands for--Knockout

 

Standing three feet nine inches, this little person boxing enthusiast can channel telekinetic energy into a powerful concussive blast that can send his opponents flying back thirty feet or more, or put a massive hole in nearly any wall.  He can also use this energy to propel himself in tremendous leaps through the air, and to cushion his landing.

You didn't like "M is for Moonstruck"?

 

I'd think the UN would be eager to control someone who is from the future, even one who is rather...unique.

Never fear !

 

We can't have Quake so we will have Quack !

Yes, the man or woman who can change into a human sized Duck.

This can cause confusion to an opponent. But they can also deliver an awesome peck attack and they can fly so they are good for reconnaissance

 

Let me guess - he's a disgraced doctor as well.  :winkgrin:
