Lord Mhoram Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 Building a superteam (goes by the name Fist), and the leader goes by whatever the latin for "thumb" is. Any help on what that may be would be appreciated. The rest of the members are Primus, Secundus, Tertias, Quartus. Thanks much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
