Honestly, this is a general weakness of these Hype games that are based on Marvel and/or DC lore. It is not the question of if people will drop from the game, but when. This is a generality of all roleplays, even the successful ones. No matter whether it is a mishmash or a twist on the single character, the game will have to deal with inactive characters, whether by having a player pick up someone else' creation (which I honestly have not seen done) or retcon the last version to allow a new one.

Which is why limiting the convoluted nature of some characters that were created simply for the sake of convolution lessens the impact such departures would have.
