Young Justice Renegades: A Team Worth Dying For

So now comes the question of "what is to be done about Dandy?"

I had an idea for how they actually joined the team; Dandelion could be the most recent teammate to join, as their recruitment was actually the most recent attempt at their "first real mission" that they still have not had.

Julian, with all of his hacking and connections to major corporations, heard about the villain (maybe The Light? Who knows) attack on the STAR Lab, and saw "extraterrestrial missing and presumed escaped; capable of replicating and replacing any living thing; considered an extreme risk to local population," and from there decided to mobilize the Renegades.

They went all out, magic wards, super-scientific tracking, battle plans and tactics out the wazoo, and then when they get to Fawcett City and track the alien down, they just go "Hi, I'm Dandy, can we be friends?" And from there they join the team.

What do we think?

@Dead Cruiser

I like it. I imagine Julian would've done some testing / screening before he'd unleash the unknown alien being into the team's living quarters - he's a believer but he's not suicidal. He's seen the Alien films... Probably.

How does everyone else feel about that background for Dandelion's recruitment?

I've decided that the amount of characters, interest and speed this thread is likely to move at once the IC opens (If the OOC is any indication) I'll need reinforcement and have named @Sep Co-GM. Everyone clap.

And enjoy his inaudible Scottish.

@Hillan can we keep him?

@Lord Wraith

I try. But a man like @Odin is not so easy to lock down.
He's a free spirit. And if you love something, you have to let him go.

Be free, my sweet little Sweaboo.

"Look I made empty husk clones to extend my life and when one developed a consciousness I put it in a lab and tested it for years but I'm not evil"

@Tackytaff

You missed the detail about how he made the meat-suits powerful enough to probably level the planet, too.
Definitely not evil.

Apologies as I have not fully and completely read all of the sheets so I could well be misconstruing something here.

I think Julian and Eilidh could have an interesting relationship within the group and something that sprung to my mind was the idea of them working together to help him with his more emotional side, perhaps on the down low. He can impart to her the knowledge he has about telepathy learned from his experience and she can assist him with keeping emotions in check.

@Stormflyx

That sounds lovely! Man recruited his own therapist.

Didn't I read somewhere that Luthor wasn't confirmed to be Uber-Evil?

@Sep

I mean, he isn't 'maniacally fighting Superman in a supersuit full of kryptonite'. But he's been in and out of prison a couple times for white collar crime and been put on trial for more severe stuff but gotten away with it due to lack of evidence. He is in general not a good man by anyone's imagination. Unless you're the biggest licker of boots there is.

@Hillan with our plan I was kind of considering Conor to be one of the initial members, it just works well for our angle of them working together on an early problem.

@Sep

Yep. That'd be fine. I know Roman wanted to be one of the early bois, too.
And Julian probably would've needed some muscle on his side to recruit someone else, too. The Luthor name might've been off-putting. (Which, frankly, isn't an angle I've seen anyone do yet. Look at you guys, not blaming someone for the sins of the father. Good job.)

Out of curiosity how long has the team been in action? Have characters joined at different times?

@Tackytaff

Renegades have done nothing mayor yet as a team. Maybe stopping some low-level thugs, rescued a few kittens, that sorta stuff. Their true trial by fire will come pretty early in the thread.

The team's been in action for a few weeks, maybe a month-half, depending on who joined when and what they did before they were all 'up to snuff', as it were. Julian's just been going around picking up strays, and I'll leave it to you guys to decide when and how you got recruited - I'm obviously available to brainstorm Julian's convincing of you to join.

But you could be completely new to the team or as old as the team gets. Julian would've just recently acquired the penthouse so everyone would be new to their current accommodations.
