Now unable to be harmed by heat or fire he can shoot both from his mouth like a flamethrower.

Cookie Crumbler

Slow Goth
As a teenager taunted and teased for his weight, Nicholas Harvey of Columbus, Ohio, finally snapped. Drinking a concoction of poisonous liquids he found in the family garage to end it all, he instead woke up physically altered.

He found that he is able to siphon off the physical and mental energies of others making them lethargic and sick whilst making himself feel powerful and fearless.

Wormwoman
Karen Dawes of Seattle, Washington, was a librarian who sought revenge on a duplicitous lover by using an ancient spell book she'd discovered. The spell worked, but it also gave her the power to stretch and elongate any part of her body! She also discovered that if any part of her body is cut off or damaged, including her head, it can repair and grow back over a short period of time.

Hot Possum

The Purple Wiccan took him on as an apprentice in a bid to help him learn how to use his powers.

Father Scribe

Lady Bacon
Like the fictional Pied Piper she is able to control the minds of others and have them follow her commands. Helena Cartwright from London, England, was born with a pheromone that she can release from her body to trigger a response in anyone who genuinely likes the flavor and smell of bacon! The pheromone, though it can linger for some time, still eventually dissipates and she must rest in-between each release.

Gravedigger
The true nature of this creature is still yet unknown. Standing over seven feet tall, but with a gaunt, slim frame, he has great strength, endurance, stamina and is seemingly invulnerable. A mute, he only grunts or snarls and is a fierce fighter using nothing but his bare hands.

Grillmeat
Logan Kyle of Pasadena, California, sought fame and fortune by any means and hoped to get his big break by his daring attitude and outrageously obnoxious personality! In a freak accident in which he lit his body on fire to reenact a stunt he saw on TV, he was doused with a chemical mixture then jumped in a pool. Although he survived, he was now hideously deformed, and knew he would never get what he wanted so he settled for a life of crime. His body and face are a twisted mess of scorched rough skin, that is immune to heat and fire and gives him enhanced strength and protection.

Rabid Fox
Through mystical means a large red fox was given human intelligence, the ability to speak, and an increased life expectancy so as to be his master’s familiar. Tucked away for many years in the European countryside he lived a secluded life until his master died. Going out into the world he soon learned how different he was, but used his natural animal instincts and abilities along with his human qualities to survive. A ferocious combatant he is not afraid to start a fight but is smart enough to know when to retreat!

Dark Fairy
A dark-skinned, small pixie-like female creature who was banished from her home world because of her mental instability. Sent through time, space, and dimensions she ended up on Earth. She soon gained the attention of villains who offered a community that accepted her despite her off-kilter behavior. She has wings that allow her to fly, can release an enchanted cloud from her hands that can cause temporary paralysis in others, and turn her body into an intangible form.

Sumac
Juan Rodrigo from San Juan, Puerto Rico, was bombarded with cosmic rays whilst out camping as a teenager, giving him the power of the very next thing he touched. Unfortunately, this happened to be a patch of poison ivy! Given the ability to cause itching, inflammation, tenderness, swelling, and a burning sensation on any person that he comes into contact with, this has stopped him getting physically close to others. He channels his frustration and anger into a life of crime, thinking that great wealth will make him happy.

Grinder
Riku Tokushima was born in Osaka, Japan, with an innate ability to meld with inorganic material on an atomic level. He can use this ability to ‘pass through’ solid objects (and likewise, allow objects to pass through him). He can also disrupt inorganic material by touch, causing its atoms to ‘grind’ against each other, subsequently atomizing it into a fine dust. Initially a hero, Grinder accidentally destroyed an orphanage whilst battling an elemental villain named Landslide. The constant recriminations from others in the hero community wore away at his self-belief until he snapped, and went rogue. Now he aids the remaining Leaguers in a demented plan to prove himself capable of using his powers to the best of his ability.

Morto
Abdullah Duponte of Lagos, Nigeria, was the partner of the villain known as the Bushman in both crime and life. His powers were passed down from his grandfather after it’d skipped several generations. He is able to communicate with and briefly control the spirits of the dead who have not passed on. When he makes eye contact with living creatures he can briefly induce a catatonic state in those caught in his gaze! As he is not attracted to woman he may very well be the last of his line with his powers. After the Bushman was killed in The Cataclysm he took over control of the fearsome Crocodator.

Crocodator
This reptilian creature is part crocodile and part alligator and was the pet and companion of the villain known as the Bushman. It has the natural abilities of both animals, but multiplied five-fold, and can understand human speech. It is a vicious fighter, whose dangerous nature is commanded and reined-in by a collar controlled by Morto.

Evil Penguin
The being named Shatouno comes from a parallel universe in which penguins are the dominant species on Earth. A renegade scientist, he flew into space desperate to find the life equation of the Great Creator. However, he lost control of his ship during a cosmic storm, and crash-landed near Vladivostok, Russia! He was captured and imprisoned by the government to be used for scientific experiments. Angered and confused because he had never seen humans before, he barely escaped with his life. Seeking out other penguins he soon learned that there was no-one else like him and he was obviously not on his own planet. Feeling trapped and alone he blamed the Great Creator for leaving him to this fate. Soon his existence became world news and various groups started to hunt him down. He came to develop a sever dislike for humans until a group of villains approached him and offered sanctuary if he would join them. Realising these humans were different to the others he’d previously encountered, he agreed and has been working with them ever since. He has the form and natural abilities of an emperor penguin. He can swim at great speeds and is immune to the cold. He understands and speaks English. He is a brilliant strategist who is able to access situations quickly and to make hard decisions without allowing his emotions to get in the way. He wears a jetpack of his own design that allows him to fly.
