Crucible is a religious zealot who has taken the teachings of The Black Cross and their leader, Savior, to an extreme level and now targets anyone with superhuman powers, often putting them through a series of tests before killing them if they fail to prove themselves to be devout warriors of god. Of course it’s almost impossible for anyone to live up to the standards of this fanatic.

Savior claims Crucible is acting alone in his crusade and denies any involvement but many believe Crucible is taking orders directly from the leader of The Black Cross.

Here is the QUEEN’S GUARD.  Picture many of these robotic bodyguards surrounding Buckingham Palace in service of the present monarch.

Born without any noticable superhuman powers, yet obviously not a normal human as evidenced by the large horns protruding from his head, Todd Rouge is one of the less volitile members of the community assembled within The Watchman’s Hideaway. Due to his unusual appearance Rouge has been the subject of much torment throughout his life, he still bears the scars of numerous violent encounters. Though rather deadpan and cynical about the outside world, he is decievingly gentle character, a fact somewhat hidden by his large stature and fearsome exterior. He is one of the people that all of the Outcasts appear to like and one of the voices of reason amongst the usual chaos and madness that occurs within the Hideaway.

The Raven (no civilian name yet).

This is not the original Raven. The original Raven was an early eighteenth century French aristocrat who stole things out of boredom. He was a brilliant man, and invented a pair of wings and other gadgets to aid him in his robberies. He left France when he realized the nation was turning toward revolution, and because he had many enemies in France, and moved to England and then to the US under a fake identity so he couldn’t be followed by any of his enemies. His family was still wealthy.

Since then, the identity of the Raven has been passed down generation after generation to the previous Raven’s oldest child, or, if the child is not yet eighteen, the Raven’s oldest sibling, and from there I haven’t figured it out. Each Raven has done different things with the identity. Some have been straight-up thieves, some have become Robin Hood-like figures, and some weren’t even thieves.

This is the current Raven. He is a burglar and vigilante. Like most of the rest of his family, he steals out of boredom. As a vigilante, he battles criminals far worse than himself, with an emphasis on mob bosses. He is the primary foe of the Eagle, though the two alternate between being enemies and being strained allies.

The Raven has a snarky sense of humor, and is usually fairly laid back. His tools include the wings (again, not the original wings. Each Raven has either made their own wings or heavily modified those of the previous Raven), a sword which condenses into a ball, explosives, smoke bombs, and a device of his own invention that can easily open any door with a key hole to name but a few (he also uses standard thieving equipment such as crowbars, glass cutters, and rope). He also has a device he can use to call in his helicopter if the wings are damaged. Raven is also the head of a corporation founded by his great-grandfather in the late nineteenth century.
