Why's Cullen?

It's always Brennus's fault. He's a troublemaker just like his mother.

I am protesting Scare's protest.

I know there is one character left to rank I'm not thinking of, so I'm extremely curious to see who that ends up being.

They could even be next!

Also as for this...I'll go with Blue Devil.

Roz'etta never talks to Harley, which is funny considering Roz'etta's main weapon is Harley's hammer, but I think she enhances my preferred therapist, Simon LaGrieve, with the extent he's willing to go to help her, faking being a victim of her machinations and letting her feel like she's in control.

Harley has never really hurt LaGrieve so he could just be right.

Which Rory is this?

This Rory would be Ragman, owner of a cloak of souls...and probably something Enchantress would very much like.

Oh, and my guess for this one is...Bobo Bennetti?

Gal is great insight into how far Guy has come as a person since the Warrior days...and also sometimes how he hasn't changed at all.

Enchantress is always in control of her conversations and that makes her so neat.

Lex is one of the biggest mysteries. He changed on a dime. Was he always that way, or did he break?

As for this...Jenny Sparks?

If Brennus joined Kobra then he's never returning to Z'onn Z'orr.

oh, and for those who followed the story of Jesse in my topic and wondered what happened with the 'God is a boy named Wally' story...

Well, Leesburg was saved, but Wally was killed by The Spectre, thus proving that Wally, despite his immense knowledge, was not God.

love me Jesse and Roz'etta, who should be enemies, being such close friends

Knowing that Xanadu and Roz'etta have a little bit in common with regards to love is a big shocker as a player. Even though I've very, very rarely gone to see her, she really does steal the scenes she's in.

This one...J'see?

Oh, and Roz'etta needs to talk to her about the Manhunters, whom she has a connection to!

So much Kate I need to get to...

Roz'etta's goal of clearing the Equation is going to lead her more and more to Kate, and I can't wait.

As for this one...could it be Jesse?

Roz'etta talking to Waller about Jinal was such a big moment for that relationship. It was one of the first times Roz'etta went to Waller as both a student and a protector of sorts, for The Wall's connection to the Salvation Run that ruined Jinal's life.

This sounds like a Xanadu.

As for this...Jessica Midnight sound right-ish, but so does...Olapet?

Or Maris Verdugo?

I had faith from the beginning that the Knight would be fine so long as we could get him and his Robin on the same page. It was really rewarding to have Squire pull him out of his funk.

Oh, and we need more scenes of Vostok happily cleaning Brennus's face.

As for this HM...

I'll go with Jim Rook.

The latest great Vostok moment imo was the saga of the auto-chef.

Our auto-chef, designed to produce perfect portion, was actually producing slop, poison! Through investigations from Lush, Ferdinand, Saoirse, and Pepper (I believe) it was discovered that the problem was our incoming food had issues. One of the things immediately agreed upon was this, do not tell Vostok until there is a solution in place.

Once they had their solution, they went to Roz'etta to begin to execute it, and have her design food purifiers. With everything complete, it was time to go to Vostok, who was furious about this problem not being found earlier, only to warm up...slightly, when Roz'etta showed off her designs that would purify all the incoming food.

It shows how much respect, or fear, Vostok has gained since the start of the campaign, and just the entire Vostok cycle.

Shiva is such a force that it only added terror to the effortless way Cassandra handled her. Whether it's because Shiva held back due to it being Cassandra, Cassandra being that good, or both, I can't begin to say, but none of them are good news while Cassandra hates us.

But we do need more Boston and Shiva in the campaign.

As for this...L-Ron?

Arisia is one of the characters in the 'if you want to feel good about your character, talk to them' tier, because she will be in awe of your humieness.

This...my gut says Eve?

My guess here is an Aquazon.

Lono is both easy and impossible to get a read on.

Hush is one of the creepiest allies in the campaign.

As for this pick...of course Lex would be 52.

well Stargirl last time was closer to a 'yay she's not actually evil' moment than her doing anything

also I'm now realizing #53 is probably undrafted as opposed to a quiet drafting and...Jesse?

I very strongly considered taking Courtney instead of Squire, and instead of Jack Cross, and really any of my last 5 picks could have easily been Courtney. She was #1 on my undrafted board! She and Susie have really hit it off, and Susie questioning how Courtney would know she wasn't going to kill her, that Susie would kill Pepper first, was a great moment to read.

...That said, for this pick....The Spectre?

Scare bringing up the possibility that this is a cruel hint makes me think 'Bruce Wayne'.

...Or Mitchell Hundred. Scar if it's Mitchell Hundred I will be laughing for a long time.

I'm still not sure how on 'our side' Lizzie is. We'll find out as we keep chasing the story through the cars of the Railway, I suppose.

As for this spot...Oracle?

Thom's fourth wall antics are pretty amusing, especially during RP bingo. The reveal that he was trying to prevent his row from being completed to protect Jack Knight was touching.

To make this clearer, Thom was worried that the row, with the mysterious reward 'A Knight's End?' meant the death of Jack Knight, so Thom did all he could to prevent it from completing to save Jack.

...What it actually meant was Jack Knight opening his store, Knight's End.

Thom is so weird I don't know how else to describe him. Between shattering the fourth wall and producing sloppy joes from....somewhere, he's just Thom.

As for this spot...I'll go with Madame Xanadu.

Roulette, with her willingness to make Metabrawl, Z'onn Z'orr edition far less violent, does a good job of making you forget that she is a very twisted person, something Mr. Terrific is sure to remind people. Terrific doesn't really get mad often, but, like Tomorrow Woman, Roulette pulling that side out of him enhances both characters.

Squire! Fits the eternal theme of Batman needing his Robin, no matter the Batman, so well, and she's such an addictive personality that despite being a Robin, she's completely unlike any Robin we've ever met. Even Stephanie Robin, excited to be Robin, didn't have half the pure energy of Squire.

And Jon Valor!

Jon Valor and his crew played a key role in getting Lesbos on the board for Roz'etta, that of getting A.J. Curry as far as they could before having to dump him in the water to avoid Society fleets.

When they came back, Roz'etta told him to give her thanks to his crew, which he responded to by saying Roz'etta should join them to celebrate a successful mission and thank them herself. It's sometimes the little things that make a character for me, and that little thing may just have made the old captain that I already liked a lot before then.

Oh, and the Mica'kel/Condi talk to Jack scene opened with Jack saying he didn't need to send an awkward e-mail to Roz'etta to get her to talk to him after he was suspicious of the Martians and didn't know why we should trust them, and Roz'etta saying she didn't need to get an obviously fake apology that she'd feel required to accept, which immediately ended any tension between them.

Roz'etta went to go see Jack Cross after the finale of Boulder, Colorado to go congratulate him, only to discover his secret of self-farm as a form of penance, and they had a really nice discussion about pacifism during wartime.

Roz'etta and him always had a nice connection, as Jack is an aspiring writer, but that made them so much closer.

...Of course, Roz'etta is also Waller's apprentice, which I'm not sure how Cross will respond to that, and she is keeping the secret of the White Martians from him, which Waller reprimanded her for trying to keep it alone, for Jack would investigate on his own without anyone else running distraction, like her and Thinker.

...But really their bond was made when Roz'etta informed him that Miss Martian was the daughter of Mica'kel and Condoleezza Rice. That's still a campaign highlight scene for me.

Sam really is one of my favorite themes of the campaign. He's pure, unrestrained Americana, for good and for bad. I thought his limited screentime would cost him, but I suppose not!

As for this...I'll go with Vostok.

Sasha's still one of my campaign favorites, she has so much to uncover.

I look forward to Roz'etta finally reuniting with Trish, and hearing her complain that of all people to come find her, Roz'etta showed up.

...Or she took too long.

Oh, and Lush said no at the time because she suspected Roz'etta was doing it purely to get Zatanna into Waller's hands.

Of course, since then Roz'etta has been made Waller's heir, so who knows if Lush was accidentally right?

Lush went to a bunch of the PCs for advice on Zatanna.

Roz'etta's proposal was that Lush give her Zatanna, because you can't leave it to a vote. A vote is what started all of this. It needs to be put in one person's hands, and in Roz'etta's mind she is the least connected to Zatanna, being a non-magical person who, while part of the hero community, rejected the part of it that had Zatanna in her decision to join Waller.

Ocean Master being a viable candidate more or less by virtue of existing is pretty great. Can Minerva find another option, will she be the option, or will she create one? Who knows...?
