Alias: Cheetah
Real Name: Olivia Vale
Genre: Superhero
Powers/Special Skills: super speed and reflexes
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: small claws on gloves
Affiliations: The Pride
Other Aliases: none
Status: active
Bio:
Speed is Olivia Vale’s strength. Like Bobcat, she was born with a genetic mutation, which gave her the body and knack for the high velocity of a cheetah. She is energetic to the point of hyperactivity, and her metabolism is high enough that she must almost constantly eat. Olivia is also a notoriously shameless flirt.Pictures:
Alias: Chemical Agent

Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: suit grants ability to absorb, store and release toxic gases
Affiliations: Brainstorm Enterprises
Other Aliases: none
Status: active
Bio:
Another of Brainstorm’s experimental endeavors was a suit that could absorb and safely store deadly airborne chemicals. Its wearer is Kevin Paulson, a former Minor League baseball player. He now wears this suit as Chemical Agent, and uses it to protect citizens from chemical attack (which occurs surprisingly often in Caligo). An added bonus to the suit is that it can also release the stored toxins at a later time, either into another storage facility or at one of Chemical Agent’s foes.Pictures:

Cheshire, the mischievous cat from Alice in Wonderland, exists in the pocket dimension called the Book of Fables, a world containing all of the settings and characters from every fairy tale ever written. This world is under the domain of the wicked Faerie Queen, and Cheshire, always the opportunist, has placed himself in her employ as a messenger and spy. But though he has taken an oath of fidelity to the evil queen, Cheshire can always be persuaded to help out anyone in the Book of Fables, if the price is high enough and the results are interesting enough.Pictures:

Affiliations: none
Other Aliases: none
Status: at large
Bio:
Xavier is an insane villain who unfortunately was blessed with the mutant ability of controlling the motions, but not the minds, of humans. He is obsessed with the game of chess, and uses his power to create two armies of minions at a time, costumed like the black and white sides of a chess board. He then sends them in to destroy whatever he wants destroyed, despite their pleas to release them from his psychic grip. When he is finished with the current job, he generally kills those he has controlled. Chessmaster is among the Raven’s vast rogue’s gallery.Pictures:

Rick was the leader of the golden age super group Team Justice.

Alias: Chilblain
Real Name: Brad Marshall
Genre: Superhero
Power/Special Skills: cryokinesis; composed of ice
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: none
Affiliations: Citizens’ Hero League
Other Aliases: none
Status: de-powered
Bio:
In 2032, the technology-based company PresCorp discovered an amazing thing. By stimulating and manipulating the right genes, they could give a normal person amazing super powers temporarily. The effects lasted for about a week.
To collect as much on this breakthrough as they could, PresCorp created a daughter company called Venture, Inc. Venture offered the process to those who would pay for it (a hefty sum), and then kept them on a compound on an otherwise deserted island. They would create adventures in which these people could use their powers. It was exclusively for the sake of entertainment and profit, letting the rich and influential people of the country live out the fantasy of being a superhero for a short time. Lengthy background checks were performed to ensure that none of the customers would use their powers for evil, as well as a cancellor gate, which would void all powers when passed through. There was a public outcry scolding Venture for making the experience so expensive and thus only for the wealthy, but no legal action could be carried out.But then the demons arrived.
To call them demons is actually a misnomer. They were really just beings from another dimension. They had found a way to cross to our world, and when they saw that we were physically inferior, the invasion began. It soon became clear that the world’s existing heroes were not enough. Therefore, the US military declared martial law over Venture, Inc.
The “hero surgery,” as it was known, suddenly became available to anyone for free, as long as they were willing to volunteer to help battle the armies of beasts. And thus, the Citizens’ League of Heroes was formed. Many different powers were offered, and all were given to these everyday working people. Thousands applied and most were accepted. They were each given a crash course on how to control and use their newfound powers, and then they were sent to the fray. They were divided into teams of ten, each being led by a pre-existing superhero. makeshift hospitals were set up near the battle lines so that the week long powers could be continued as long as was necessary. They fought until the menace was destroyed. Many died in the battles. The rest returned to their normal, mundane lives, but with the memory of being and doing something extraordinary.
Brad chose to be able to control cold, mostly because he enjoys winter but knows the impact freezing winds can have on a person. He is laid back and comedic to a point that some of his team mates get annoyed.

Alias: Chromo
Real Name: Roy Bivowitz
Genre: Villain
Powers/Special Skills: hand-to-hand combatant
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: none
Affiliations: none
Other Aliases: none
Status: at large
Bio:
During the early half of his life, Roy grew a bizarre and unhealthy obsession with colors. As an adult, he turned this obsession into a way of life when he began a career as the masked criminal Chromo. He would only commit crimes having something to do with one or more colors. Though Roy is hardly a force to be reckoned with, he seems to have luck on his side because although he rarely succeeds at the robberies he attempts, he also always manages to escape to annoy the heroes of Caligo another day.Pictures:
