Well it probably would be a mostly government entity so having the actual King Arthur might become an issue when the King and Head of State start to butt heads over decisions. All the members might not exactly have some respect, but not necessarily a huge amount of love for the King making her addition not necessary for them. In short an issue of command and whether most of the members actually would accept her as a leader can be an issue.

That would probably be the Prime Minister, since the Queen mostly just holds a symbolic role and doesn't actually have much in the way of official power.Might be fun, but we'd need to see what Vita thinks since she's kind of playing King Arthur and all. XD...Also will try and post for Zeta either tonight or tomorrow.
It might work better with the Prime Minister. Maybe the Queen would be one of the biggest supporters of the group especially PR wise. People would assume they answer directly to the queen, but again she wouldn't have much official say in their duties. Unless you go the Hellsing route and she actually does have a lot of secret influence.
How about a new Knights of the Round Table? I'm thinking of an organization than answers directly to Queen Elizabeth or whoever is the head state in the UK. They consist of either known superheroes, secret agents, and a few wizards. Main objective is to keep the United Kingdom safe, but will cooperate with other superhero groups when necessary.
The organization itself might be secret and the main problem might be why haven't appointed the actual King Arthur as their leader.
Edit:
Sounds like something from Kill la Kill. It also kind of fits when you get into the really silly stuff in comics and anime.

I've got an idea for a comically bad heroic team based on american football, if you're interested.

Name: Allan Vicman Magical Boy
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Appearance:
He's a young, athletic, African American male with a penchant for dyeing his hair depending on his mood. He's 5'8 tends to wear sunglasses during the day and will wear whatever he feels is comfortable.
Personality: Allan has often been the called weird and even a drag queen considering the dress he occasionally dons. However Allan is not so different from the average American young adult male. What makes him part of a certain minority of people is his confidence and belief in himself. There is very little that can truly destroy his spirit. Even faced with a dangerous foe, whether its a Golem or trying to wake up early Allan will never give in. This can be an issue because he rarely can place a great deal a trust in others to the point where he can safely rely on them. As a result Allan prefers a very small group of friends when going out or to just be alone.
Abilities/Skills:
Magical Knowledge- Allan could be considered a rather lazy genius amongst his more nicer peers. His knowledge of the occult and magic is impressive. The potential he has to become a very powerful mage in a decade or two is there. Even now his intelligence and knowledge of magic far outpaces his own ability to properly use and control it. Allan may have potentially memorized "Chaos and Entropy" book, but won't be able to corrode a skyscraper in days or even weeks through magic.
Elemental Power- Allan Vicman comes from a family well known for their magical prowess. Specifically their control over the elements. Allan specializes in flames. From the smallest ember to a an inferno capable of burning down a house. His control over other elements are very limited forcing him to use them for very delicate tasks.
Summoning- Proficient in the use of summoning magic and can conjure any manner of spirit or demon. He has knowledge of more complex spells, but they are currently not within his ability to properly perform. At best he can conjure a being and speak with it or possibly conjure a tool maybe even a weapon from another realm. However, conjuring items especially powerful ones either takes a great deal of effort or impossible at the moment.
Spirit Energy- Knows spells that call upon power mostly reserved from spirits. The most complicated spell he can use a simple bolt of energy. It can knock a man off his feet or it can be used to destroy simple locks both mundane or magical. Currently working on this.
Equipment:
- This staff has been passed down the Vicman family for only a few generations, but it has been a very notable magical item used to defend the family. Due to Allan's interaction with a mystical fairy item and annoying Lich has changed it from a golden staff made to purge darkness, to a weapon that uses both light and darkness. This fire can burn both bright and dark, but altogether effective setting its target ablaze. Allan is more capable of using it encircle or occasionally shield himself from certain attacks.
(its half black)- Allan is very bad with names so he gave his newly discovered magical attire a name that seemed to fit rather well. The Dark Flame Dress enhances all physical attributes to be ten times that of the average human. Triples the wearers innate magical power and gives them other abilities such as barriers capable of resisting magical attacks and more mundane attacks like grenade level explosions. Allan can use teleportation by appearing where ever his dark fire is burning. Any fire he has burning will be immediately extinguished whenever he teleports. It can hold up to 20 (laptop size) items in a small dimension from under the skirt (think Mami from Madoka Magica). Of course most important of all it can be donned through a rather colorful transformation.
The clothes are of Fairy make and has their own healing capability. If the wearer is somehow stabbed the wound will be healed within a day or two depending on the severity. Due to the original owners nature Allan's own mindset has been somewhat influenced. He feels responsible for the well being of others more so than usual. Now with this power he can do more good than bad. However, because of what happened when he obtained this dress he will occasionally feel the urge to laugh maniacally after a victory. The darkness and light constantly in conflict has made the dress drain energy from the user. Allan if not using his abilities actively can possibly sit in his dress for hours or more. While very active he may last 30 minutes or less.
Bio:
Allan Vicman was born in Chicago, but was never part of the Vicman family at first. He was an orphan and was adopted into the family but mainly raised by his Aunt Delilah. Of course, this wasn't the sort of old magical family that necessarily cared that much about keeping the blood pure. They were notable for being unusually powerful hippies amongst their kind for a long time. Always moving making new friends, new enemies, finding new quests and even occasionally losing a power family heirloom or two. Allan's aunt was far more interested in staying one place with him, teaching Allan about the supernatural as well as giving him a life with the majority non magical populace.
His life for a while wasn't very exciting. Allan made few friends and enjoyed staying by himself mostly to read, practice his magic, play games, eat junk food or when forced to jog and get some exercise. However, he never took his studies lightly. Whether magic education or otherwise they were serious to him and at times even exciting. The most was learning about more about his own family's history. His adopted father when he wasn't either in the jungle or trying to find some strange tome in the Mojave he did make sure Allan knew about the family history. The story of how countless generation failed to find the Illusive dress of the Fairy Princess was told very often. Most in the family thought it was a myth, but Allan was both at the right age to believe the story and confident enough to think he could find it. It didn't help that Allan was already thinking about how cool it would be to use that power to not only impress, but help out the people in the city.
Just out of highschool Allan had a couple strange friends all looking for a specific fairy item related to the fairy princess. Allan simply asked his father for some help and he was given the family staff which changes hands amongst the family often. The very old and seemingly drunk goblin and very morose necromancer had better leads taking the trio on a quest encountering ninja treasure hunters, crumbling temple filled with skeletons who loved a riddle or two, and finally a very annoyed powerful Lich who at the end of his near century old search for a Demon King's crown instead found a dead Fairy's wardrobe. When they found the Princess's property the very irritated and petty Lich infected the place using Dark Magic and as a result the items themselves were tainted. Instead of them being destroyed through the collision of light and dark they were mutated. All of them were changed including Allan who's own staff fell victim to the power. In the end he found himself dressed in the garments of a long dead princess. Instead of embarrassment he smiled at the power he had and had a new compulsion to save lives and show the world the power of justice and maybe a little darkness sprinkled on top.
He tried asking his friends about the other items, but one sold it living a life of luxury and the other is currently using the item to control a rather large horde of powerful undead creatures.
Edit: I wanted to make him weaker than Charlotte since she's a very old witch, but considering he has kind of a magical girl ability I wanted to make him a bit strong to. I feel that without the dress he wouldn't be anywhere near her level. With it Allan should be closer but her skill should trump his. Also do our characters have to belong to a specific organization?

How can I not see it as a personal attack with such language.It is insulting and in bad form to use such as way of seeking an explanationAlso I believe that asking for such details as to how she can fly is the same as asking how can Superman, Hawkman, Thor, Harry Potter and numerous others fly?
Not really, people have different ways of conveying info. The use of profanity is never only used as an insult. Also providing details wasn't the issue, but you are attempting to explain away certain telekinetic abilities (in itself doesn't necessarily need in depth explanation using theories that probably isn't true) with a concept that would necessitate the user to have very fine control over physics to a crazy degree. That's just so she can get herself into the air and not get killed. Hell it would probably be easier if your character had control over gravity instead of looking for theories that may allow for Telekinesis to work for human flight, but not for just tossing a person around like a rag doll.
Using negative mass as an explanation seems like your reaching for an explanation. You could just take flight out as an ability or maybe just make it so she can pick up people, however its not within her ability to fling them through a wall. Just ask Vita about it. I think Raineh was correct. Trying to cross Telekinesis with negative mass or make it involve that sort of concept shouldn't happen. That's just far too much trouble.

Um... that wasn't a personal attack?It kind of reflects my feelings on the idea to, um... how does being telekinetic let her break the laws of physics like that? It doesn't seem to fall in line with the rest of her powers at all.@Hillbilly: I think it's more just... I'm sorry, it's kind of a hard thing to quantify. Hopefully I'll get a more clear way of explaining this, but it's mostly that she feels more like she'd be from a grittier urban fantasy work then a superhero type of setting? ^^;
Ok that is a lot better. I wasn't planning on playing her too seriously gritty. However, I can understand your apprehension. Luckily I planned on two characters, but the second one would probably fit better. More likely a Magical Boy hero.

Its likely less of a personal attack and more "That shit makes no sense." personally I'd say you are probably over complicating the ability. In doing that your leaving it open to a huge amount of criticism due to the nature of the theories involved.

I figured that might be an issue but not sure how much I could make her a hero while keeping a rather dark personality. I did have another idea in which she was a rather open hero. A name and obvious ability that she occasionally likes to show off, but her own motivation is still the same. A believer that good will prevail, but still someone who in the end not very far from being a villain? Either that or should I make her personality traits just a far more obvious hero or villain because I'm not sure what to how much I should change considering your criticism.
Should her motives change? Her style and name be different or do you just want a person who's a hero to straight be a hero in ever respect same for a villain?
