Bio:
Derrick whimpered involuntarily as his sneaker hit a puddle of dirty water in the shadows of the alleyway. The…thing…was gaining. He breathed heavily through his nose and reached inside himself for more speed. A shadow swooped along the brick wall to his right and disappeared. God, it was close. He turned a corner, his lungs burning, dying for a rest. But the thing had marked him, and it would not stop until it had him.Dead end.
He stopped short as he faced another brick wall ahead of him. Nowhere left to run but back the way he had come. He spun around and there, standing a good five heads taller than him, was the thing. It was a cross between and man and dragon, with thick green scaly skin and huge leathery wings. Its face told a story of worlds Derrick wished not to know about, and in one of its clawed hands was a nasty-looking knife. In the other was a long axe-like weapon.
The better to gut me with, Derrick thought in a moment of insanity, as the beast took its first steps toward him. Around its neck was a string of what looked to be the teeth of various species of animal.
Suddenly a voice sounded in Derrick’s ears. No. In his head. The creature was speaking to him with its mind.
“It is an honor that has befallen you, human. You have been chosen to represent your kind in my trophy room. It is you who shall achieve immortality in the museum of the Collector. As thousands before you on thousands of other worlds, yours shall be the specimen my people will study and observe. Run no further, fight no longer. Your struggle is in vain.”
Derrick squeezed his eyes shut as the beast raised its knife. He was the collected.

Alias: Coffin
Real Name: Jebediah O’Grady
Genre: Supervillain
Powers/Special Skills: acquires powers and knowledge by consuming the brains of humans
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: two pistols and a dagger
Affiliations: none
Other Aliases: none
Status: at large
Bio:
Jebediah was once an undertaker and casket maker in the old west town of Wylde, nestled in the valley of the Horseshoe Mountains. When a star fell from the sky, all of the townsfolk of Wylde began exhibiting strange new super powers, just as a heavy snowfall made escape from the valley impossible. As tensions and paranoia heightened, people started dying. Only a few escaped death during that long winter.Jebediah, who had mostly kept himself hidden during those months, believed that he was the only person in the valley not to have acquired a new gift, until he left, long before the snow thawed but desperate to get away. He nearly died, and would have had he not come upon a half-eaten deer in the wilderness. Starving and unable to find dry wood, Jebediah ate the deer raw, including its brain. His mind was suddenly filled with strange visions, like memories that weren’t his. He realized that his power was the acquisition of knowledge through consumption of brain matter. When he emerged from the woods, he gradually started murdering and eating the brains of several people. Each time he did, he was immediately endowed with the knowledge of everything his victims knew. He also discovered, surprisingly at first, that if he ate the brain of a superhuman, he would gain his or her power. Because of this, the man now called Mr. Coffin has racked up quite a few abilities, including extreme longevity, which is why he still walks the Earth today, hungry for more knowledge and more power.

Instead, it created negative copies of all of Caligo’s many superheroes, giving rise to the largest army of evil the world had ever seen.Cocoon is the negative of Krysalis, a Neptunian with butterfly wings and the ability to create chrysalises that can heal. Cocoon has the same type of wings, but her cocoons bring death to any caught within them.

Status: deceased
Bio:
Morgis was (or will be) an agent of the Clocksmen, an elite time-travelling team of soldiers created in the 23rd century strictly to correct the temporal anomalies created by the tampering of the nefarious Chronos. Morgis was nicknamed “Clock Tower” for his impressive height and size. He had been promoted to the position of Chief Clocksman, the field commander of the team, and therefore wore a black uniform. He was a strict, no-nonsense leader. He was killed like most of the other Clocksmen by Chronos’s devastating time wave.Pictures:
Alias: Clay
Real Name: Clayton Caviness
Genre: Supervillain
Powers/Special Skills: composed of soft clay that can be shaped into weapons or small creatures
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: none
Affiliations: Dirty Deeds, Inc.
Other Aliases: none
Status: at large
Bio:
Clayton was a small-time crook on a big-time crime spree when the police finally caught up to him while he was robbing a convenience store. A shoot-out ensued, and although Clayton was hit several times, he managed to escape from the store and stagger into the forest behind it. Eventually, exhausted and bleeding to death, he collapsed on the bank of a river, sinking into the soft red clay beneath him and quickly dying…If the universe had any sense, it would have let him perish.
Instead, as bad luck would have it, a cloud of toxic waste that had been illegally dumped upstream floated by, some of which flowed along with some of the river clay into the open wounds in Clayton’s body. The combination was a perfect storm of DNA restructuring, and Clayton emerged from the river as a sloppy, muddy man made of clay. His wounds filled in and completely healed instantly, and when the policemen chasing him burst into the clearing, Clayton’s new body instinctually liquified into a puddle until they had passed on, none the wiser. His body reformed into a humanoid shape and he made his way to freedom.
You might think that such a miraculous occurrence might change a man’s lease on life. Instead, Clayton found it easier than ever to rob stores and banks, thanks to his incredible power. He never really thought of himself as a villain, but as soon as word of the clay man got out, he was dubbed a super menace by the media.
He was ultimately sought out and recruited by Dirty Deeds, Inc., a group of supercriminals who hired themselves out to commit the crimes other people need done but can’t do themselves.

Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: single-passenger spacecraft
Affiliations: Tigris race
Other Aliases: none
Status: active
Bio:
The creature who would come to be known as Claw arrived on Earth in the year 2056. He found that despite the fact that the human race had proven itself mostly intolerant of even their own people, he was met with utmost kindness and excitement over the arrival of the an unheard of extraterrestrial. Thanks to Claw’s mission, a bond was formed between the people of Earth and the star system quickly dubbed Tigris. He was called Claw by the Earthlings because his real name could not be adequately pronounced by their vocal chords. Claw spent much time travelling between the two allied races, but his life was turned upside own when, while he was visiting Earth, the Tigris system was wiped out by a cruel, violent race known as the Oktrollians. Suddenly faced without a home, Claw was gladly accepted into Earth’s society and treated like on of their own. With his extensive knowledge of the Oktrollians, Claw helped Earth to defeat them, thus securing himself as a hero for the planet. Like his former race, Claw resembles a humanoid tiger, with retractable claws and the ability to leap great distances and camouflage himself and anything he touches to the point of being virtually invisible.Pictures:

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 probably 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.Roger was a bit of a wuss his entire life, cursed with an incredibly low pain threshold, so he jumped at the ability to be able to turn into impenetrable rock during which time he could be shot with a bullet and not feel a thing.

She was able to understand and speak any language (including machine languages), crack codes and puzzles, and pick out and remember minute details within seconds.
