I'm gonna be joining the storyline in tomorrow's session since the current party is dying and needs healing. The previous sessions have been pretty enjoyable to listen to so I'm looking forward to it.

#16 - Miki
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/4/7/8/AAUHRBAAESh-.png
Lush is a wannabe avatar of the Green. There are Parliaments of Waves, of Trees, of Limbs, of Stones... and then there's the Gray.

Miki is the mistress of the Gray, colonizers that spread their germination across every living being, spawning an infinite horde of spores which infect everyone everywhere. You are a sleeper agent of the Gray. I am. And so is Tefe Holland, daughter of Swamp Thing... and, technically, John Constantine.

It was within the mind of Tefe Holland herself that Miki first emerged, the powerful spearhead of a waiting, sleeping, time-biding Parliament. Fungus, the antithesis of the Parliament of Trees, has filled much of Tefe Holland's mind. And this would be a perfect antidote to the Anti-Life Equation, capable of beating it back and holding a line with unflinching solidarity, were it not for the fact that Miki sees the Parliaments of Earth as nothing more than arcane, outmoded relics, ready to be absorbed into her own Phylum, her own order of things. There is an insidious inevitability to Miki's creepy, crawling infection as it encroaches not just in Tefe's mind, but potentially around the world. Anyone who stands against Miki has learned quickly that she is swift to anger - Lush nearly choked on mushrooms and lichen emerging like thick, white pus from her throat after her second confrontation with Miki.

Roz'etta, too, has a connection to Miki - who in Martian and Saturnian mythology is the Goddess of Inevitability. And what is more inevitable than a kingdom of decay being the last parliament standing in a world ruled by Darkseid? Yet, even still, Miki in all of her inevitability is poised against the Anti-Life Equation. She is a bacteria. The Equation is a virus. The two are contrived to do battle wherever the clash - does that mean there is a shred of hope in Miki's presence? And is she truly within the walking corpses of everyone in Z'onn Z'orr?

Hint: Part of a menagerie.

#15 - Bizarro
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/1/9/3/AAUHRBAAEStJ.jpg

Me am #15.

Bizarro entered this campaign with all of the pomp and circumstance deserving of an icon, an institution. As part of a triumvirate of Trinity-alikes including Batwoman and Wonder Woman Robot, Bizarro is to the planet Htrae what Superman is to planet Earth. In fact, it appears to be that Bizarro is less the menace that his reputation would suggest without the trappings of the Man of Steel nearby. Often easily influenced by the "strong" logic of the party members, Bizarro, who is a rather gentle soul, can be duped or manipulated to carry out all manner of sins, including helping to take down the cosmically powerful and nearly immortal Auctioneer. After being discovered held on ice for the purposes of collection and private enjoyment, it seemed only fair, after all, for Bizarro to get some measure of revenge for being penned up like a zoo animal.

As space ramps up, it has become clear that the War of Light and the Rann-Thanagar War require heavier hitters than the party may ever hope to be. What I've found somewhere between tragic and alarming is how little compassion the party has for Bizarro. The fellow certainly labors and toils hard to earn the title of simpleton. Yet, there's a level of kindness that is understated beneath the dumb oaf's bravado. A prime example is just how thrilled he was to witness the return of Riev to the Rannian fleet. Bizarro, whose life had been saved once before by the taciturn merc, instantly raced for Riev, trapping him in a tight hug, still grateful after all of those years for Riev's efforts. But sadly, Riev seemed to spurn the bizarre brute. Similarly, Pepper wasn't particularly thrilled to hear that Bizarro had raced her up to the Ranagar Prime for the purposes of helping with her injuries - and Saoirse seemed dismissive of Bizarro as well in conversation.

What a tragic turn for a loveable, sweet being who seeks only to return to his homeworld and rescue his friends and family, trapped beneath a Grid. And yes, as it turns out, there appears to be a second (albeit not Green Lantern-spawned) Grid out there in the universe, somewhere around a planet called Htrae, where statues of Riev stand tall in remembrance of his accomplishments. Not that he cares - the grump.

Hint: The daughter of a supervillain.

what was left though is that when we first met we tried to speak 'bizarro' to Bizarro, only for him to correct us and inform us that he knew how to speak non-bizarro

that is how you do the bizarro schtick and prevent it from getting old, we're the fools

#14 - Naomi Singh
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/4/1/4/AAUHRBAAESwm.jpg
In many ways, Naomi Singh is a foil to Brennus. Varra de Luca's closest friend within the League was none other than the Red Dart, a resourceful, small-time villain who has managed some extremely notable feats, including escaping from the Slab and stealing the Green Lantern's ring for a few minutes. But of particular note, he was a loyal friend and valuable ally to Varra during the war between Nyssa and Talia in No Man's Land. Now, years later, his presence has yet to be revealed in the renewed struggle between the daughters of Ra's al Ghul... but his daughter has stepped in to fill the void. The child of a local Sri Lankan woman, Naomi Singh's life was for years a quiet, unremarkable existence. However, her skill with technology caught the attention of Queen Industries, and suddenly the global company was erecting its first facility in Sri Lanka, all for her purposes.

Naomi wouldn't question it when Oliver Queen himself came to Sri Lanka to offer her a foundational position as the new Queen Industries engineer-in-residence; but perhaps she should have. After all, Varra had a very significant connection with Oliver Queen through Hal Jordan. Maybe she simply never had the time to think beyond the immediate; after all, it wouldn't be long before the world fell apart, Sri Lanka was invaded by the Equated, and Naomi rushed to Singapore. It was here, at the most crucial moment of her existence, that Naomi met the party. Immediately developing a rapport with Data 7, Naomi revealed that, while the world was falling apart, she had created a testcase, a prototype machine called the dodecoplegia - and its purpose? To uninfect an OMAC unit. Despite being a one-use object, the dodecoplegia proved to be immensely valuable right off of the get-go, saving the lives of Henry Fyff, a colleague of Naomi, and also Mister Unknown - another hero with tenuous connections to Brennus of all people.

I see Naomi has potentially integral to this campaign, once she's returned to Z'onn Z'orr. Of course, convincing Naomi to give up on the people of Singapore will prove to be difficult - she's stubborn, standing on principle and a firm morality, unlike her father. When this crisis is over, it's highly likely that Naomi's name will be written alongside the party's monikers for all of the good she could do the world... or the League could manage to reclaim the daughter of one of their own. And who knows what happens when the only way to stop and maybe even control the OMACs falls into the hands of Nyssa al Ghul.

In the meantime, Naomi is a confident, hard worker with limitless potential, both in the greater campaign and on a more intimate scale with several player characters - the scientists, Data, Brennus, and maybe even more than that.

Hint: Her father is NOT a supervillain.

My Naoimi time has been limited, I did not expect her to rank once we started getting in the top half of the list. I do like how she and Brennus line up in a lot of ways

Can't wait for Brennus to join the League of Assassains to kill Varra.

It's hard for me to see Naomi in Z'onn Z'orr. She feels more like someone who would go from Singapore directly to another front line to support.

Even if Singapore falls, she'd just retreat to the next place to defend instead of regrouping in Antarctica, far away from the fighting.

#17 - Lizzie Hexam
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/2/4/6/AAUHRBAAESeW.jpg
Our mutual friend. Everybody hates Lizzie; after all, through deception, trickery and poisoned Turkish delight belonging to some poor, dead soul, she's managed to kidnap more than a dozen refugees and Checkmate members and send them hurtling towards an imaginary place for as-yet not entirely clear reasons. But for Lizzie Hexam, this path was put in place a long, long time ago, and carrying out each step of her mysterious plan might be merely performative now.

Lizzie Hexam should be fictional, very well might even actually BE fictional, but her perhaps taps into reality itself. By unveiling event after event through the train cars of the Story Line, Lizzie pushes a train northward through Darkseid-controlled Scottish territory. Inch by inch, story by story. When questioned, Lizzie rarely if ever provides answers. When confronted, Lizzie remains stone-faced and defiant. Make no mistake; the woman who pilots this one-way trip to the imagination is just as easily the villain of this tale as the hero - perhaps even moreso. With eyes ever aimed towards her destination, the sacrifices of the journey mean little at all to Lizzie. She has her reasons; she has her methods. Anything else is merely a stumbling block, an obstacle on the path towards Hogwarts.

As for the party's reactions to Lizzie, they've been almost uniformly those of hostility and anger. In particular, Saoirse has demonstrated a significant animosity towards her captor. In fact, the push and pull between begrudging subservience to Lizzie's demands and angry self-righteousness has really added another layer to Saoirse's personality. But there's also curiosity there as well, and learning the truth about her familiar Twiggy has put a little bit of conflict into Saoirse's mind - at least that seems to be the case through our first three sessions on the Railway to Hogwarts. Saoirse's natural inquisitive nature and unbridled curiosity has always weighed significantly on her own morality - and I think the entire party has become fascinated as to what great changes their every action has on the course of history.

As for Lizzie, the engines churn on, and the train lurches forward, pistons firing, stacks pumping steam - and if she gets her way, Lizzie Hexam's captives will propel her to the end of the Story Line... all the way to Hogwarts itself.

Hint: Our highest undrafted character made it to a staggering 16th place.

We had another Storyline session last night. Lush finally did her car and it went as poorly as you could think going into Lush's memories would be. But I have gained a new love for Lizzie as she continues to show how diverse she is.

#13 - Wonder Woman Robot
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/6/0/AAUHRBAAES_Y.jpg
You're not my dad!

Ah, the ever-growing subset of DC heroes that I lovingly call the Robot Family. Wonder Woman Robot has been long absent from her brethren, which include such luminaries as Superman Robot, SuperBOY Robot, Jimmy Olsen Robot, the now-deactivated Batman Robot and Supergirl Robot. But Wonder Woman Robot stands apart from the others, as she's begun to develop and evolve on a branching path far removed from her template heroine. Entering her simulated rebellious teenage years, Wonder Woman Robot is brusque, direct, and frequently confrontational with little to no provocation. Combine that with a rather impressive set of robotically-enhanced abilities and the stoic, statuesque outward demeanor of the most famous heroine on Earth, and you have a set of unusual, often contradictory, traits that really make her an absolute delight to present to the party.

First encountered within the bowels of the Auctioneer's menagerie over Throneworld, Wonder Woman Robot proved an immediately valuable ally. Upon joining the party on Oa, Dubs also quickly found use as back-up to a small returning team spelunking through the crashed Auctioneer ship. I do hope we'll see more of this rather unusual artificial woman as the campaign moves forward. Wonder Woman Robot is both highly competent and extremely pliable to the party's influence. Already, she's found a quick, snug relationship with Brennus that was equal parts amusing and adorable. Given that Wonder Woman Robot has been so long removed from Earth that she has no immediate, pressing quest in her memory banks, I can think of few reasons not to take advantage of an extra pair of hands and utilize her as some flavor in any space-based quest.

Just, please, don't tell her what to do. You're not her dad.

Hint: A product of the quest for the Zodiac Crystals.
