THE DON'T QUIT YOUR DAY JOB HEROES

The Novelizer or The Novelator – he can’t make up his mind. 
Keith C. writes tie-in books and original fiction. He has gotten so good at fictionizing stories and events that he can produce a novelization of anything in no time flat. He has yet to figure out how to use this to fight crime. However, in spite of being out of shape because he sits at his desk all day, he gets out there with the team to do his darndest!
Bongo Drummer Boy
Chad P. is Bongo Drummer boy. One day, at practice, he fell so into the groove while playing that he found that, if he moved fast enough, he could get a bongo sound from any object. He leapt around banging on everyone and everything. Unfortunately, the people he bongofied—while they produced a lovely drum sound—often ended up in the hospital.
That day he learned that with great bongo-playing comes great responsibility. Chad vowed never to use his powers on his friends again and turned his new talent to fighting crime.
Weasel Bag
Struggling artist Sean O. was working late one night when he heard a disturbance. He stumbled out of his house to find a writhing bag abandoned on his front porch. Inside the bag were four super weasels.
Determined to help his friends clean up the city, Sean heads out each night to fight crime. When trouble looms, he reaches into his bag and pulls out a weasel. Sometimes this helps. Sometimes, not so much.
The Four Weasels in the bag are:
 Cheer Weasel – This rainbow weasel with a clown nose. When you pick it up by the tail and strike it against something, it elongates and makes a squeaky-noise. Whatever it strikes becomes happy and joyful. More useful on friends than enemies.
 Chill Weasel – This weasel is a rainbow of muted earth colors. It has black fur around its eyes that look like sunglasses. If you swing it by the tail, whatever it strikes becomes entirely mellow and cool. Too mellow to fight.
Angel Weasel – this hyperactive weasel used to be an angel, but it was transformed into a weasel by a curse. It still retains some of its angel powers, however, it adores standing on its head. Anyone who stands on their head is safe from its wrath.
Spice Weasel – this futuristic (Futurama) spice weasel is useful for knocking up your culinary dishes a notch. Not much use for crime fighting unless you can squeeze it in the enemies eyes or mouth.

Chief Justice a.k.a Chief Justice of Justice! For Justice! Because of Justice! With Justice on top! And a side of Justice! (He adds more justice every time he says his name.) Both a Indian Chief and the chief Justice of the Supreme Court – he fights crime with his law book and his tomahawk.
Wonder Boy Phoenix Dark Dirk -- The perfectly ordinary younger brother of Dirk Steel, Emperor of the Super Cluster (or some super cluster). Feeling insignificant in comparison with his famous brother, Phoenix bought a stick off the back of a magazine. Turned out it was a D&D Wand of Wonder which he called his Boomstick! Armed with this magnificent weapon, he headed out to fight crime.
Robbie Rocket Pants! 
He’s a boy named Robbie who fights crime with his excellent rocket pants.
Utility Belt
This young man found Batman’s utility belt, but he does not know how to use it. Who knows what he will pull out next! Access to the Bat Computer via Bat Wrist Watch accounts for his extreme cleverness in crime fighting.

Team? What Team? We’re Not On A Team? I Don’t Even Know These Guys!

Kamen Rider Tokyo   
Real name: Hayao Miyazaki the Second
Hayao Came to Champion City fleeing the destruction constantly rained upon Tokyo as he fought monsters and aliens there. He hoped by moving to spare his family.
His father, a mad anime genius, figured out how to transfer the power of many anime heroes into his son. This gives his son a eclectic hodge-podge assortment of anime attacks and powers. Including:
When he transforms the sky unzips and a giant cherry drops on his head and unfolds it to armor.  (This is from a real Kamen Rider show. We can’t make this stuff up!)
He has a Pokemon by the name of cherry. Cherry is a Cherubi.
He also have a giant robot Mecca that transforms out of his motorcycle, the Mach 7.
The Mecca is made of gundaleum (a rare anime element) and has a giant laser pizza cutter useful for cutting laser pizzas.
He also ate a devil fruit giving the power to turn into bubble gum…which turned out to be surprisingly useful.
He also learned the ancient ninja technique to multiply himself.
Also when he gets splashed with cool water he turned into female version of himself. (Hot water returns him to normal.)
His sword, when charge up can perform a energy move he called the caa mee haa mee haa. The bankai (super sword) allows him to access his super mode—but currently, he does not have the power to use this function.

The Lone Power Ranger 
A guy who moved to Champion City from Texas—because of the endless amount of desperadoes that were hunting him down to take revenge for his having put their relatives in jail. This caused trouble for his family.
He has two laser pistols that shoot silver laser beams.
He has a motorcycle which he calls by shouting: Hi, Ho, Place Random Element Here! He calls on a different element each time.
He also has the Lambda capsule, which allows him to transform into a 50 foot tall alien. He received this when he was accidentally killed by an outer space pizza boy who was delivering laser pizza to Dirk Steel (secret ruler of the Super Cluster…or some super cluster somewhere.) 
Sometimes, when finishing of finishes off a villain, he goes into the Lambda capsule mode and fires his gun…the size of the Lincoln Tunnel, which causes a lot more collateral damage here then it did in on the Texas plains.
The Lone Power Ranger has an assistant, a robot by the name of Lambda 7

Kamen rider Godzilla
 He's basically Godzilla if he could ride a motor cycle.

Kamen Rider White Witch  While the White Witch, a super powered being of dubious intent, never shows up, what these three folks have in common is that they all know the White Witch who appeared in the battle when the media first said they were a team.

What these four folks have in common is that they are all in a media shot of this battle together.

The White Witch is not actually on the team and doesn’t have any points spent on her. (Though the moderator is welcome to use her as a plot device or a villain, should the mood strike him. )

 

THE OUTSIDERS aren't from around here, man. Just don't step to them or you'll find what being Outside feels like, you dig?
