They're going to use Mr Li to try find the Lair Legion. Or at least their underwear.


Well, I might drop you a scene I had in mind if you'd like something to build on, but it'll have to wait 24 hours or so.


I wanted to show both her dedication to following through what she started and some of the less fortunate consequences.


If or when the Hood comes back, people will eventually have reason to know it.


Possibly not. it depends on how cross she's feeling just then.


I disagree with this one. The Purveyors are the most dangerous supervillain group out there, as I hope to illustrate as we reach the climax of the story arc.

For example:
Dr Roentgen can discharge radiation over wide areas, kill people with it, then raise them as rad-zombies by the hundreds if not the thousands. He can also cause nuclear-level detonations. Since he's living radiation now he's very hard to actualy harm or kill.

Gromm the Living Flatulence is the last of six primal Deviates, equal and opposite beings to the Austernals. He is sentient gas, able to poison, explode, sear, and dissolve tissue over an area the size of a city block. He can get anywhere gas can.

Anvil Man is the Parodyverse's Juggernaut, an unstoppable armoured tank with massive strength. Additionally he can detonate any object in his line of sight. He's shielded from psionics, energy attacks, physical force, magic, damn near everything, which makes him a very difficult opponent to stop.

Clonar has all the physical power of Donar, which means he's damn near invulnerable and one of the strongest beings around. And that's before he summons storms.

Razor Ballerina can cut through almost anything, including concepts like magic or probability strings. When she spins she can generate razor-sharp psionic blades that hurtle off and slice through whatever they meet. She's psychotic sadistic insane after being tortured into what she is now over a year as captive and pet project of one of the Hood's former minions.

Grit the Granulated Man and do pretty much anything Marvel's Sandman can do, including hurricane sandstorms and sledgehammer assaults.

HAGGIE can do pretty much anything Hallie can do (albeit not with as much flair) and is still wearing the "strong suit" she stole off Hallie during the Parody War - with some upgrades.

But really the point isn't just that some of them are powerful. They're also professional - experienced, trained, disciplined, organised, and for the most part able to work co-operatively as a team for their sinister goals. They're meant to be the perfect counterpart to oppose the LL, so that means I have to write them as smart and deadly as I can.


I think if you try to show Lara "punking" the Purveyors you might have some readership credibility issues. Better to put her up against one of the targets Lisa suggested where she can have a good tough fight without tripping up the main thrust of where our main plot is heading.


I hope that your recovery is swift.
