death tribble Posted April 6 Report Share Posted April 6 (edited) Life is but an Illusion ! This mentalist had the power to make people believe what they saw was real but it never worked on the hero for reasons that confounded her no end. She was of Indian and Chinese heritage and her background came from Buddhism and her parents taking too many psychedelic drugs or so it is thought. She is infuriatingly calm at all times. She threw out illusions when the hero was finally overthrown over mundane things to make the hero think twice as every second counts. She runs 'meditation' centres in India and China but she is given a hard time in the latter being half caste. Golden Snake has given her a hard time so she does not have much to do with him. She is respectful to Quwwa as her power has no effect on him. She knows Indian (Hindi and Urdu), Chinese (Mandarin and Cantonese), English, French and Spanish EDIT: It is said that she is paying a royalty for using the exclamation mark to a certain mad scientist Edited April 6 by death tribble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

death tribble Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 Master of the Orbs Masquerading under the name of Reginald Tiddlesly an unassuming accountant, he who is the Master of the Orbs runs a criminal enterprise. And due to his impersonation of the timid accountant he has never been to brook despite all the efforts of the police and that pesky hero. He even managed to make a court believe that the orbs had some kind of hypnotic power or boosted mind control. And not once afterwards did he drop the facade and gloat about his victory or cumulative victories. Yet the hero continuously vexed him. This is what drove him to work with the others. This left him mildly relieved. They were after all competitors and he is watching to see who amongst them will challenge him. In his supervillain guise the Orbs orbit him and blast all sort of energy beams including some which 'seem to do nothing'. This has unnerved those who have fought him more than once as they think that something is in the offing. He has very limited flight ability with the orbs like 5 mph and 20ft off the ground at most. He has worked out a way to take on Oskolok and banish him if not defeat him but it will make the others far more wary of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 Known as The Cat of Fine Lives, Madelaine Beaumont is a shapeshifter more in the lineage of Menagerie than say a werewolf. And the number of different origins that have been stated as what gave her powers is astounding as they are all plausible. DEMON casting a spell on her ? Check. Getting hit by a spell during a battle ? Check (well it worked for Liberty Helle in Philadelphia). Being used as the test subject for a scientist involved in illegal genetic mutation ? Check. Being bitten by Menagerie herself ? Check. Being cursed by gypsies ? Check (well it worked on Dr Nymax!'s niece). Being experimented on by Dr Nymax! check. Being thrown in Dr Clement Blatchford's Omnitron ? Check. The old picking up a piece of cursed jewellery schtick ? Check. The same with an artefact ? Check The old cursed by a native shaman schtick ? Check. And there are others. Instead of marrying well Madelaine has become an underworld mastermind and gets her money that way. She made people believe she was the wife or mistress of others whilst she was the one in control. The hero almost caught her out several times but he almost killed her as well which is what really stuck in her throat so she joined with the others to get rid of him once and for all. She is content wo work with the others but feels that Oskolok will attack sooner rather than later. Madelaine can shapeshift into a number of feline forms usually human sized black cat, tigress, cheetah, leopardess, jaguar or lynx. However she has other forms such as lioness (it is rather plain which is one reason not to use it) and other human women with different hair colours, eye colours and finger prints. Not bad for a blue eyed blonde who people dismiss as a trophy wife or airhead. Like the Master of the Orbs she can play a long game One more to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
