    Bateleur.png

    Name: Dakarai Tshuma
    Alias: Bateleur
    Affiliations: The Raptors
    Powers: Enhanced Strength, Acrobatic Skill, High Resistance To Injury
    Bio: The son of Zimbabwean immigrants, Dakarai was always a hard-working child, doing anything he could to help his family. He was a brilliant student at school, participating in numerous sports (football/ soccer, gymnastics and athletics) and had aspirations to becoming a doctor. However, his father was killed in a hit and run incident just before his 15th birthday. Dakarai’s personality changed, he became more violent and disobedient, getting into fights at school and letting his grades slip. Eventually he dropped out of school and began participating in an underground fighting ring. He rose up the ranks quickly, but he wanted more. He took an experimental drug from a trainer, which enhanced his strength, injury resistance and his natural acrobatic ability. His fights became big draws, until he was kicked out for the drugs. He went after the trainer, only to discover the trainer had numerous gang links, and his actions were beginning to put his family in danger. He teamed up with Kate Quinn and took down the trainer. This episode made Dakarai realise how his actions had been affecting his mother, and he pledged to change his ways.When Quinn formed The Raptors, Dakarai donned a costume based on the national bird of Zimbabwe, The Bateleur, and dedicated himself to helping others, instead of using them as an outlet for his rage.

    Blue-Jay.png

    Name: Maria McCoy
    Alias: Blue Jay
    Affiliations: The Raptors
    Powers: Self-Made Gliding Suit, High Fighting Skills
    Bio: Born in Toronto, Canada, Maria was always a very inventive person. Her father was a janitor at the Toronto Blue Jays baseball stadium, and Maria would often help him fix things that went wrong around the stadium. In her teens she began to get into extreme sports, seeking bigger and bigger thrills. By her early twenties she began putting her creative skills to use creating herself a special suit, which allows her to glide between buildings and catch air currents. One day, whilst out gliding, she saw a woman being mugged and swooped in to help. This event triggered something in her mind, telling her that she had found the ultimate thrill. She redesigned her suit to mimic her fathers beloved baseball team and began fighting crime in her home city. When Red Kite approached her to join her team of bird themed heroes, Maria leaped at the chance, training herself in numerous forms of combat so she would be of even greater use in the world of crime fighting.

Disgusted at his superiors corruption, Walker left the police force. Inspired by Swan-Song, another ex-officer, he decided to clean up the city his way.

    Affiliations: The Raptors
    Powers: High Intelligence, Innate Capability
    Bio: One of a pair of twins who were celebrated as child geniuses, Buddy and his brother Harry both had the ability to understand anything having only seen it or heard it discussed once. Whilst Buddy integrated into society, making many friends and being given the nickname ‘Owl’ because of his cleverness, Harry became quite withdrawn and saw himself as better than others. Harry was bullied frequently and eventually cracked. He declared war on the rest of the human race and became the Supervillain- Mindmaster. When Buddy discovered his brothers plan, he decided to prevent his brother from carrying out his plan, becoming the superhero- Owl. His battles against his brother soon caught the attention of Red Kite, who invited Buddy to join her Raptors team.

    Name: Mitsuki
    Alias: Kage
    Arch-Enemy: Condor, The Raptors
    Powers: Martial Arts Master, Swordsmanship, High Agility/ Strength & Endurance.
    Bio: A highly trained Japanese assassin, loaned to Emersons crime bosses by the Japanese mob in exchange for drug trafficking. She has often been pitted against Condor and, despite her fearsome reputation, she has never managed to defeat him. Her failure to remove Condor from the Emerson crime-fighting picture has become a huge black mark on her honour in her eyes, and she now sees him as her personal demon, who she must overcome at all costs. She allied herself with Mindmaster as she sees it as a good opportunity to finally kill her foe.

    Name: Clint Quade
    Alias: Major League
    Arch-Enemy: Blue Jay, The Raptors
    Powers: Perfect Aim, Enhanced Strength, Super Reflexes
    Bio: An aspiring Baseball player from Montreal, Canada. However, he was dropped from the team after a string of bad performances. Desperate to get back on the team, he got hold of some of the experimental performance enhancing drug that gave Red Kite and Bateleur their abilities. He found that his aim was improved to near perfection, as were his reflexes. He managed to get back on the team, but, as with the two heroes, he was found out. Disgraced and angry, he discovered Blue Jays exploits and decided to gain fame and fortune by becoming a superhero. However, his exploits were pretty much ignored. Bitter, he decided to remove his main competition. He had many battles against Blue Jay and was eventually approached by Mindmaster, who invited him to join his Raptor-Hunter team. Even with his dislike of Blue Jay, he is not sure whether he is comfortable with his alliance with the Raptor-Hunters.

    Name: Bia
    Alias: Black Lion
    Arch-Enemy: Bateleur, The Raptors
    Powers: Enhanced Strength/ Speed & Senses, Lion Claws & Teeth

The battle between him and Bateleur became personal when Bia killed Bateleurs mother.
