      If you have an idea in mind please feel free. I never really came up with a solid backstory for Alcheman's origin beyond it was somehow tied to the Shaper of Worlds, but that was never set in stone either.



    Quote:
    I'll give some thought to that, then. It's not as if we can't get some good story mileage out of the current Shaper having a link to Michael.


Glad to hear it.


    Quote:
    What else do we know about Strode?


He was pretty much a blank slate. As I recall I was going to reveal he was connected with Atlas and Census Jones, the two former servants of the Shaper, but again, that never became canon.

          Amnesia being able to possess other bodies was a surprise. I'm curious to see who the original host is, and what will be Sally's ultimate fate.

          If she can possess one she can possess another - as long as Herringcarp Asylum permits it.

        Quote:
        Herringcarp Asylum, and not.... the Hooded Hood?



    Quote:
    That's right. just as the Lair Mansion has hosted others before the Legion so Herringcarp existed before the Hood.


As I recall we met some of them in your Hooded Hood origin story I hope you some day finish.

          And the big conclusion with Braun being able to get the drop on our heroes is quite forboding. He clearly has some powerful backers.....

          Not regularly; but since Dream had helpfully announced where the team would be the next day it was easy for someone to contact Braun and do a deal.

    No bet.


Well, its nice to see our tax dollars going towards a military strategy that actually works, even if it is against the good guys.

        And a question I've been meaning to ask for a while now. What are the preferred epithets for Alcheman, akin to paragon of power or wired wonder?

      Quote:

        Quote:
        I used Chemical Crimefighter and Elemental Adventurer.



    Quote:
    Jolly good. I might have to avoid the "elemental" descriptor a bit, given that Liu Xi also had elemental powers and Lara Night has described herself as an actual elemental; but it's useful to have this stuff worked out. It's way better then "the periodic paladin".


I quite like Periodic Paladin myself.
