Pride Villains
The Knights Of Purity
An extremist religious sect who aim to remove all things that they view as not pure. They are strict in their following of the bible, they abstain from eating pork and they are fanatically homophobic, going so far to perform terrorist acts against high profile members of the LGBT community, well known atheists and the places of worship of other religions. They have fought against Pride many times, but they have also attacked Justice Guards’ Gold Hawk, who is the most high profile gay superhero.

Your team is awesome! I’m humbled that Spectrum group could inspire you so much
Double Trouble is such a novel way of incorporating an intersex character and Enabler looks so badass. She’s also a concept I hadn’t considered, especially with LGBT families becoming more commonplace. I could certainly see the two teams interacting together. My only complaint is that now I have all these ideas buzzing in my head, but have I try and hold to my Lenten commitment Have to hit the sketchpad and the journal I suppose. But anyway, keep it up! I approve wholeheartedly!PS- I kind of like your white insignia more than mine… I might have to borrow it for the Anarqueers!
You’re making me blush
I’m glad you like them. I was trying to think of ways to do them without covering what you’d already done, which was hard because yours are so good. I did wonder if the logo was going a bit to far into rip off territory, especially with the coloured version, so for you to say you like it better than your own, I don’t know what to say.@Scatman said:

Thanks Scatman.
Group shot now.
Hopefully this one won’t be blurry.
As usual, critiques, condemnation, favourite designs, things I can improve, that sort of stuff.
Villains may be coming.Last one for Pride
Enabler
A genius and a mutate, Enabler is able to mimic any power she can think of, although only one at any given time, as well as being able to enhance and sense the powers of others. Born by a surrogate mother for a gay couple who wished to have a family, she is one of the worlds most vocal supporters for LGBT rights. She met Double Trouble when they saved her from an assassination attempt during a public speech she was giving. Soon afterwards she helped Double Trouble form Pride, helping to find other super-powered LGBT individuals.
Double Trouble
The second experiment in creating the perfect humans that created Prince Charming and The Princess, Double Trouble was created by using technology salvaged from a destroyed Negadroid. The result was spectacular. Able to split into male and female halves, whilst their true combined form is a super strong being that has an almost instantaneous healing factor, and the ability to fly, and when in the split form they know exactly what the other is thinking. The two halves both have the same power set but at half the strength of the amalgamated form. Neither think of themselves as either gender, and their amalgamated form is classed as inter-sex. Whilst they are the same person, they pass themselves off as twins in public. They formed Pride to help protect the LGBT community from aggressive forces.
Shift
Born as a girl, Alex Kane always felt like he was in the wrong body. He tried to live life as a girl, he liked guys so other girls wouldn’t think of him as weird but he knew it wasn’t who he was. Not having enough money for gender reassignment surgery, he became suicidal, until his mutant power to shape-shift emerged. After some practice, he managed to learn to hold a male form indefinitely, only returning to his original female form in times of great emotional stress. After figuring out his identity problem, Alex turned his attentions to the other things his powers could do. He learnt to increase his muscle mass and strength by will, giving him super strength. He found out about Pride and, at a Gay Pride march, approached them to ask if he could join. They were convinced when his skills helped them stop a violent clash with a homophobic counter march. He has now struck up a romantic relationship with Chance, but he hasn’t told his lover about his true identity, fearing it may drive him away.
Nike
An alien princess from the planet Altar, a planet of exceptionally long lived winged humanoids, Nike is the daughter of King Pallas and Queen Styx. She is a formidable warrior and on Earth she is super strong and practically invulnerable. Like most of her species she is bisexual, as sexual attitudes are much more relaxed on Altar than on Earth. She crash landed on Earth whilst being chased by an alien slaver ship and she is now stuck here, until either human technology reaches a stage when she can be sent back home, or the Atlarians find her. She was rescued from the wreckage of her ship by Pride, and she joined the team, starting a relationship with fellow team member R-Gen. Confident, flirtatious and proud, she views Earth as a place to have fun, trying out as many new experiences as possible whilst she is stranded here.
