" Why shouldn't we be in charge? Why shouldn't Superhumans live on top of the regular humans? Evolution is a natural part of life, and survival of the fittest is a natural part of evolution. Homo Sapiens became the dominant species after they crowded out their lesser brethren the Caveman. Now that time has come again, as Novus Sapiens are now the evolved race and Humanity are the cavemen. Our dominion is natural. But it need not be cruel. All Superhumans must join our cause to create a Utopia for all. We shall rule, but the humans will be under our protection and care, it is better for all that way. We can build a world with our powers and abilities, free of the hatred, poverty, sickness, corruption, freed, and disaster that Humanity has wrought on our planet. Humanity had it's chance, it has had its time. Now it's our turn, our time." - Apex, Identity Unknown, leader of the Novus Sapiens movement in an internet broadcast

Rainmaker's Team

Locust heard the boom and twisted in the air, his insect eyes bulging in disbelief as Blast Girl moved to strike him. He snarled and moved backward the hit cracking his head plate but he remained in the air. He grabbed her in an insectoid appendage and said, "You have a lot of spirit, young one. But this is not the day where you capture me. You'll have your chance soon enough, I only hope you see the error of your ways before we are forced to kill you. Bright souls like you are wasted in the grave. That is why I will not strike you down today, by the mercy of Legion." Locust's mandibles twisted in an approximation of a smile and he let Blast Girl fall to the ground, the acid opening a hole in the ceiling which he crashed through, buzzing away into the sky.

On the ground there were people to tend to, villains to secure, and such other matters. Perhaps one of the captured villains would have some information to offer about this mysterious Legion.

Pariah's victims

"Oh crap", was all Ember could say as the black light hit her and sent her soaring through the air. Ember landed in a fiery pile next to Adamant who along with the rest of the team had slipped their bonds. Chrome, grunted in annoyance as Furious hit him, the hits not doing real damage but slightly denting his metal hide. Chrome recognized the fact that his continued hits might gain him more power. Chrome released his hold on Furious suddenly but then brought his hands up to smack Furious on both sides of the head with his steel palms. The blows were meant to discombobulate Furious and confuse him but leave him too numb to feel pain for the next several moments. Then he slipped his leg out of Furious's and shoved him forward, then kicking him in the back to send him flying at Changeling. Chrome took the momentary distraction to slowly back away from the two, bracing himself for another attack.

Meanwhile, Apogee managed to break the back of the resisting henchmen and their positions crumbled as Magnetar, Bullseye, Redeye, and Plasmus overran the enemy positions. The team of heroes made a bee-line for the bus where Extrusion, Colossus, and Bastion made a last stand around it. Colossus had grown to twenty feet tall, while Extrusion had formed stretched out to the same height, and Bastion was surrounded in a barrier, with the bus also held within a sphere. It might have been prudent for the trainees to disengage from the trainers and assist their allies.
Have a good trip and I look forward to reading it.

Yep, we're pretty much as novel length at this point :P
I like mystery haha.

The sheet looks good and the character isn't overpowered. Accepted.
"We don't really know very much about Manifestation. It can be a lot of things. Extreme emotional turbulence or life-threatening physical danger can cause someone to be Awakened. It can happen in some freak accident or be activated by drug use. But it can also come during activities as mundane as reading or taking a shower. There's no reliable way so far to predict manifestation. And once someone is awakened the specific effects it has on the subject can vary wildly. Someone can manifest electrokinetic powers to survive electrocution, or they can receive pyrokinetic powers because of their temperament and psychological profile, those with more cerebral qualities can receive super-intelligence, or they can develop super-strength and flight because of a deep regard for Superman, the potential causes and effects of manifestation are almost limitless. And once you add Supernatural factors such as mystical bloodlines or wizardly talent, manifestation becomes even more unpredictable and diverse. It has not been conclusively proven that Manifestation is genetic but studies have shown that those with at least one Awakened parent have a greater chance of receiving powers, and having two Awakened parents seems to almost guarantee having powers. The field of Superhuman studies is young and there's lot's of things we have to learn but unlocking the secrets of Manifestation could catapult our society into a Golden Age of advances in agriculture, medicine, engineering, everything. And of course there are the military applications" - Professor James Morrow, co-chair of the Superhuman Studies Initiative

Entry Hall

Hot Rod soon came upon Reaver, one of the more infamous heroes in America. With his dark red skin, reptilian yellow eyes, bone-white claws, barbed tail, golden pitch-fork, leathery wings, and horns the hero was somewhat a lot to take in on first sight. The half-demonic hero gave Hot Rod a genuine smile and spoke with a strong baritone, "Ah, I know you. I love your races, man. Good to have you here. We need another speedster besides Nitrous. You're pretty late, which is kinda weird if you ask me. Being a flying speedster and all." Reaver let out a hearty chuckle.

"Everyone's out, right now. Either on a field mission or in the training rooms. Most of the training teams are done, but Pariah's group is still slogging through it. Pariah doesn't go easy, even on the first day." Reaver pointed towards one of the hallways which lead to the briefing room which in turn would take Hot Rod to the training mission, "Just go down there into the briefing room and tell them that Reaver sent you. They'll let you in the help finish the mission. Better hurry or Pariah will get even more pissed off than usual."

Pariah's Victims

Chrome managed to score a glancing hit on Changeling as he retreated. Then he squared off against Furious and Changeling with them on either side of him. He didn't anticipate Furious being quite so fast and the first two hits struck him in his metallic jaw, Chrome shrugged off the hits and saw the right hook. He dodged to the side of the right hook and grabbed Furious's right arm with his steel grip. He stepped behind Furious and locked Furious's arm behind his back and slipped his left arm around Furious's neck. The steel limb would press down on him and hopefully keep the teenage hero locked there. Chrome could also start choking him out with little effort if Furious started to resist. Then the metal trainer maneuvered Furious and himself to face Changeling, trusting the hero not to know how Furious's power worked.

Meanwhile, Phantasm found hands around his neck and a feminine voice speaking to him. With his free hand he felt around and found what seemed to be a leg near his torso, and his hearing told him the general direction of the voice. He figured out that his attacker was sitting atop him. The trainer said in an amused tone, "Well, it's refreshing to have another shadow-type on the team. But this seems to be a bit much for the first date doesn't it?" While he said this his hand found his taser gun and he lifted at where her torso would be since she was sitting atop him and pulled the trigger, shocking Phantom for the second time in a few minutes. He would then take advantage of the painful distraction to holster his taser, grab one of the arms holding his neck and shove her agonized form off of him with all his strength.
Raineh, welp she has plenty of time to learn :P

BlackSam, Yeah if there was a movie there would be epic music and the sounds of good choreography and intense fighting. And everyone watching would be supremely confused.
Yog, Let's just say that the implications of an Extraterrestrial presence will not be one-dimensional.

Poly, Yeah that's perfectly fine.

Raineh, Nothing wrong with it, but she underestimates Phantasm
For the purposes of maintaining some sort of dramatic tension, I can't specifically say but expect them to show up after the League get's more established and they handle more international threats like the growing unrest in China.
Yog, As long as you use hiders.

And keep in mind guys, that this is a progressive RP and some of these guys have a good chance of dying and never coming back. Or at least they actually stay in jail.

Raineh, Fair point. But I'm not too overly fond of alcohol anyway.
Vita, For some reason I'm reminded of the Brave and the Bold's Music Meister xD

Raineh, Well..... never mind haha.

At least you can drink, here in the US I have to wait a few more years.
But... you socialise with us xD
