  1. Alison Carlington is not the best fighter or hero you will ever meet. But she is one of the best dressed. She grew up with wealth but also had a social conscious that shamed her peers. While she had little time for fools, she was able to talk happily with all factions and stay on their good sides. So when she got superpowers at a charity event that was being raided it was obvious that she would not take the easy path of being a crook. She went out and got trained and then got a costume. One that was bulletproof and could absorb damage. Also one that was practical No displaying the midriff. Oh no ! That is one of the first places an intelligent foe might aim for. Alison also accessorised with items that Batman himself might have added to his utility belt. Alison is not a person who will just give a soundbite; she will actually spend time with people and is genuinely interested in their welfare. She has worked with veteran groups and been trained with the US Marine Corps, the Navy and the Air Force. This although dismissed by some as self aggrandisment has won her the respect of those she helps. She has also won admirers by helping the poor and disadvantaged none more so than when a crippled child threw up on her and she laughed the incident off saying 'that clothes could be cleaned'. Her nom de guerre is Fashionista and she has a range of different costumes for different needs. And yes they are all in wonderful colours except the ones where stealth is required and then the colours are muted tastefully.
  2. Paul Keller loved the sport of darts. True, people mock it but it always appeared that they missed the point to Paul. He studied hard certain that if he did he could get into aerodynamics and design his own darts and get into tournaments. While he was diligent and his test scores proved good enough, his tutors were openly critical of the idea of using the skills he was acquiring to design darts. They had a higher tolerance of paper planes. Undeterred Paul continued and got into college studying aerodynamics. However the faculty was openly disdainful of darts playing and had it bannedon the grounds that drunken jocks and sharp missiles don't mix well. The local hostelries were also against the students coming in to play any sort of game as they feared ringers taking them for large amounts of cash. It had happened before with poker, pool and find the lady. So Paul had no outlet to show his designs and skills. He continued his work and what he considered his vocation. He even designed his own flights (what the professionals call darts). And companies expressed interest in marketing them. Then came his big chance during an open tournament. He got through the preliminaries and was going to compete against professionals when another player accused him of being 'too healthy for a dart player' and using asbestos in his darts. While it was true he did not have the bulk (ie beer belly) of the usual darts player and was young and attractive, he certainly did not use asbestos in the darts. The authorities at the event paniced and persuaded him to pull out but the Grudge Report stated that the whole thing was true and Paul was banned from all events and treated as a pariah. Paul was devastated and vowed revenge. If he could not compete legally, he would compete illegally. He designed new trick darts and became the Prismatic Flight.
  3. I know who that is. A reverse of a well known villain.
  4. Had an odd idea for a character. Educated at Yale and a member of their victorious Boxing team, he was an All American and was on the collegiate Wrestling team, Anphoreh High Priest to the Pharoah is also an Egyptian Mummy.

  7. Updated post 1 to show repeated themes and what themes we have covered in brief.
  8. At a whopping 5 foot 4 inches Timothy Perkins is the biggest of the group. His name ? Small Fry. He was always made to feel the smallest or weakest so that people would not pick on hik because well, he was small fry. But he got hold of one of Midget Master's gadgets and can now shrink people. And he rather enjoys doing that. Tim is the most rational of the group able to negotiate with some who would take violent retaliation for any slight offered by members of the group. He plays 'dad' to the group offering a surrogate father role to the others which is a great cover for Tex for example. He is very careful with Thumbe-lethal and she seems to trust him. Particularly after she saw him shrink others. He keeps a special cage for Chaos Butterfly and seems to know when it needs to be released and when to be protected from birds for example. It is as if someone or somebody made it that way.
  9. Roman Reigns won the Rumble match which was predicted a while back by some commentators. Brock retained which is not a surprise as the title holder usually wins at the Rumble only to lose at Wrestlemania. Which is what I am expecting. Reigns to defeat Lesnar.
  10. Nothing has changed a double CD of David Bowie. It contains a lot of good Bowie stuff, Ashes to Ashes, Space Oddity, Changes, Life on Mars etc. It does not have one of his big hits of the 70s. This. Also the Awesome Mix Tape from Guardians of the Galaxy.
  11. The great news is that the Macho Man Randy Savage will be inducted into the Hall of Fame this year and was the first announced name. anyone want to take bets on Undertaker going in this year ? Daniel Bryan is back. Sting has made an appearance on RAW and I believe he will be fighting at Wrestlemania. But one bit of news that has been picked up on social media is Triple H breaking character. A kid was crying right behind him and he turned around and comforted him. Nice to see him do something like this.
  12. The big news over here is the death of an actress in soap opera Coronation Street who had been a regular on the show for 40 years.
  13. He would not be the only one who did something like that. Chris de Burgh wrote 'The Lady in Red' for his wife and dumped her. And Eric Clapton also wrote a song for a wife he then dumped.
  14. Being the second child and having the firstborn be an overachiever marked Kevin Barrett. His brother enjoyed the best of everything and this left Kevin rankled. Everything came easy to his brother and it got up Kevin's nose. So much so that when he hit 16 he left home. He was to his immense chagrin brought home shortly thereafter when he was informed in no small way that his parents were 'disappointed in him'. Kevin stewed for a further two years and then joined the military after finishing school. He pointed out to his parents that 'as they considered him a failure, they could not have an objection to seeing him serve instead'. Kevin joined the navy and although he was not outstanding he finally found somewhere he could forge his own destiny. After 10 years he finally returned home following not only his brother's death but that of his parents as well. To his great surprise he found out that hsi brother had been a superhero risking his life to protect people. He had been killed by his enemies and then they tried to take the money his parents had and also kill him. His brother's friends and allies had stopped them. It took Kevin a while to digest all of this and then to decide what to do. He was no Bruce Wayne but now he knew people who were. His brother had died for a cause. Now it was his turn to do something. He founded Hero Support and is the money behind it. He has no hero ID and is seen as a philanthropist. He has however managed to stay clear of The Dreamstealers and The Corruption whom he is aware of. New Team: They fight crime but they look really good doing it. In fact they look fabulous. Their clothing would look good on the catwalks of Milan, London, Paris and New York. You don't have to look like a tramp to fight crime, you can look awesome. Villains are so astounded they forget their melodramatic speech to ask 'Who is your tailor ?' and 'Where can I get an outfit like that ?' Nicknamed 'Team Fabulous' by the media your task is to detail the members of the group and just how good they look and how they can afford it. For woman members no bikini or Las Vegas showgirl outfits, please. Minimum 4 members.
  15. I just read the title of A Thread for Random Videos as a Thread for Random Vodka.
  16. The careers of Adam Sandler in movies and Pauley Shore. NT: Supposedly there was a lorry fire that has stopped the Channel Tunnel from being used. What is the real reason ?
  17. Muse Live in Concert at Wembley and Muse Live in Concert at Rome's Olmpic stadium.
  18. Abolish paid lobbying for Congres/The Senate NT: What is behind all the bad weather ?
  19. Glenda the Good The resident vampire of the team, Glenda can only operate in the hours of darkness. Despite what the Twilight books say and despite what happened in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel TV series. The latter two have made life easier for her to operate.. Glenda deflects all questions about how she became a vampire and how long she has been a vampire. She uses her abilities to fight not only the undead but others who are predators. As she is not protected by the law she usually has one of the others give evidence in court that she has gathered or asks the DayTimers to do it. As a traditional vampire Glenda is vunerable to sunlight, being staked through the heart, garlic and holy symbols. Her abilities include enhanced strength, invunerabilty to some damage, some mind control/persuasion and being able to turn into mist/fog.
  20. Two Ton Tessie She does not actually weigh two tons, it is just her name. A career criminal she started out in the circus as the fat lady and has always loved attention. That was what lead her into becoming a supervillain. She can bounce most physical attacks particularly bludgeoning ones. She has been caught but they need to make certain alterations to prisons to incarcerate her which means she can escape from normal custody beforehand. She noted the lack of advancement for those of her size so she helped found the team. She has extensive contacts with the underworld which helps with transporation and planning jobs for the group. She is also a brick but its her belly flop, belly bump that does more damage.
  21. Due to the Search function being out of action I am putting this on the front page. Also helps to pick out which teams we have not done.
  22. Fabian Stankowicz. The Not Quite Iron Man but Robert Downey Jnr would be too Expensive for another film. NT: Other songs that Mr Shatner should cover.
