Subj: They have such nice shirts, though.

Reply Subj: Swashbuckling space opera. It's just a shame nobody ripped their shirt.

    One detail you may choose to amend or ignore is that the Maxellians all had super-powers roughly akin to Superman - flight, strength, invulnerability etc. That would make them hellishly tough mercenaries (if any survived the Parody War) but it might make for a very different fight to the one depicted here.


I looked through the Who's Who and picked the most mysterious ones I could think of.

    If you want to substitute some other established PV alien race you could maybe look to the Shankaru, pirate monkey denizens of the smuggler havens of the Coalsack nebula, or the Jodlar, a race of galactic hauliers and teamsters with heavy Jimmy Hoffa-style underworld connections.


Those aren't as mysterious.



    Quote:
    Or maybe now that the sun of Maxil has been destroyed any surviving Maxellian has lost their metahuman powers.


That'll work.



    Quote:
    By the way, Liu Xi witnessed the destruction of Maxil's greatest war chief when she witnessed the Parody Master wed the Skunk Princess. She may have described it to Anna.


She might have, but all that'll do is confuse Anna some more.
