Thanks for the kind words, everybody! Regarding Meta, I hadn’t thought of that masking effect but thanks AMS and Weilyn! I’ll keep it in mind for next time 
The reason I cobbled her together that way is that I wanted her to be actually transparent for group shots, so the background characters/scenery would be visible through her transparent parts as opposed to just having the foggy effect for her individual image. Like so:
Two more characters for the team, I and Q (of LGBTIQQA)
Intersex-
Stonewall- *note- since Lex is both male and female, I use the third person pronoun of singular ‘they’.
Lex was born to immigrants in New England, their mother of Southeast Asian origin and their father a Pacific Islander, as an intersex child, with an ambiguous anatomy. His father tried to push for surgical reassignment, but Lex’s mother did not want her child to have such a traumatic and invasive procedure done. She did not feel comfortable making that choice for Lex, something made her feel that the child was special. This put a strain on their marriage and Lex’s father soon left behind his family. Lex’s mother raised them as both male/female, making them conscious of intersexuality as a positive trait. Lex appreciated their mother’s efforts, but they chose to fade into the background, to go unnoticed at school for fear of backlash. Of the Spectrum team members, Lex’s mutation was the most physical. They were given a durable, yet pliable, leathery red skin, covered in interlocking scales. This skin was found to be superhumanly resilient, bulletproof even. It has the unique property of absorbing the force of impacts against it, further reducing any harm that could come to Lex. They remain quiet and reserved, but they have come to appreciate Spectrum as a family, and will do anything to protect their comrades.
Queer-
Puto
Xuan Gabriel was a child raised by powerful women, his mother and her sisters from Michoacán. He grew up to appreciate masculinity, as well as the power of the feminine. Although Xuan Gabriel identified as male, he was unafraid of pushing the envelope when it came to gender stereotypes, earning him the ire of the men in his community. After he was hospitalized by a group of young men, as he walked home late from a night out. Xuan Gabriel’s mother sent him to America to live with his Grandmother, hoping he would be safe there. He enjoyed a newfound freedom with which to express himself and further explored his identity as a queer person of color. Truth be told, Xuan was looking for a hookup when he attended the rally, but was caught up in something far more complicated… He is granted the power to project intense thermal energy from his hands, ionizing the air into a unique form of plasma that he can shape as long-range bursts or explosive orbs.
