wcw43921 Posted May 28, 2016 Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 There is always Woman's International Terror Covan Hex, or WITCH for short. Women's International Terrorist Conspiracy from Hell. (Several groups named this actually existed.) The WITCH acronym could also stand for Women's International Tribunal to Crush Hierarchy. There was mentioned in 4th Edition, albeit very briefly, a terrorist organization called WITCH, in both Classic Enemies and Champions Universe. They were described as all-female and very anti-male. I imagined them as being quite unlike VIPER or DEMON--no uniforms or high-tech weapons, more underground, with a core team of supervillainesses providing the leadership. They were determined to eradicate men entirely from the human race--not just overthrow or enslave, but eradicate. As to tiger's group, I don't get the impression they're that radical. I was thinking they could be called SLAM--the Society of Latter-day AMazons. Alternately, they could be called the Society of Latter-day Valkyries--although that one doesn't acronym out too well. Of course, if this all-female team exists in the Champions Universe, there's a very strong possibility they will find themselves challenged by Bulldozer and AIM--the Alliance of Indomitable Men. Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freakboy6117 Posted May 29, 2016 Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 True Amorka but the iconography is good. X's make for nice strong branding after all it's worked for Charles Xavier, Adenoid Hynkel Scotland and Microsoft to name a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoloOfEarth Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 In my Champions campaign, one of the player characters (Circe) had a group called the Sisterhood as part of her backstory. Their stated purpose being to bring about a matriarchal society (since a male-dominated society has worked so [sarcasm] wonderfully well [/sarcasm] thus far). Circe's grandmother was one of the Sisterhood's founding members. I made one of the other founding members secretly a Norse goddess (Gullveig) using the Sisterhood to pursue her own agenda. She also founded the Valkyries (most of whom were stolen adapted from one of the Heroes Unlimited books) as the "enforcement arm" of the Sisterhood. - - - - - - In a past campaign, I had an all-female supervillain group known as the Femmes Fatale. Their agents were the Boy Toys - non-powered males who were mainly there to flex their muscles, look good, and do the grunt work for the Femmes.

wcw43921 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 Here's another idea in a more lighthearted vein--the Ultimate Sisterhood Alliance. They could charge into battle shouting "USA! USA! USA!" and confuse the blazes out of the super-patriots in the hero group. ("Wait a minute--shose side are they on?") Hope that helps.

tiger Posted May 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 I had another name at one point, don't even remember it. Players never used it as mentioned thus WOMEN was born. Never real fond of the name so looking to change it. Like the Sisterhood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiger Posted June 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 So I've decided to go with the Sisterhood. Question is should just be The Sisterhood or The Sisterhood of (something) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steriaca Posted June 1, 2016 Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 I would go with simply The Sisterhood. There is no rule that all subversive orginzations have to have an amagran name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amorkca Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 leaving it as The Sisterhood, allows many different types of chapters to develop from it, all tied back to the Villain Group but with some "Legal" or "Good" components to it!

tiger Posted June 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 Yea and they do. They are supporters of varies women charities and causes. So me thinks it will just be The Sisterhood. Although, as one would expect, their detractors might add on to the name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burrito Boy Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 Call them "The Covenant." Then their leader can be Joan, Arc of the Covenant When I first read that, I thought it said Convent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
