I'm reposting v.3 of the roster so some new member types can see who's around.
THIS HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED, so if you don't see your character on it, don't
worry.  You'll be on version 4.

----SCAVENGER 2099
---------------------------cut here-break your screen--------------------------

Hey, here is version 3 of the roster.  A couple of quick comments before
we continue:
1)  When sending additions/corrections, please do not send a copy of the 
      whole roster and respond by E-MAIL.
2)  When sending new characters, send in only your net. persona (ie. donÕt 
      say "Here's a characters you can use ---Fudgefingers boy--he reads 
      comics with smudgee fingers and leaves on the shelf.")  If characters
      like this show up during the course of a story, it's fine but otherwise...
3)  New terms are Writer Characters and Non Writer Characters--these are like
      PC and NPC in rpg's.  (Ex.  Rebel Yell is a WC, Brill Pox is a NWC).  The
      Legion is made of WC's.
4)  PLEASE look over the list of Misc. NWC's an Apparent Bad Guys.  Please tell 
    wReam or me which NWC's belong to you.  We are trying to get things
    organized for the move to the alt.group and having lots of "Fudgefinger Boy"
    type characters is not condusive to the process.  Essentialy, if the
    characters exist in a story, fine. If not, bye (This does NOT count for
    LNH members)

OCCULTISM KID - a master of knowldge of all things occult.

OLD COMICS MAN - "Hah!  In my day we didn't have any net heroes!  We had 
     guys with capes and guys with masks.  No nets.  If you saw someone with a
     net, and they weren't wearing a cape or a mask, they were a villain!  And 
    probably a Nazi (tm LucasFilm)!  So the heroes would go and hit them! 
    None of these mute ant super powwows... they'd just hit them!  And the 
  villains would hit back.  Or, if the hero had a car, maybe they'd shoot a gun.
       But a net?  Not on your life."

            used as  physical weapons.

THE VILLIANS
==============================
ACTON LORD -  Fiendishly clever at times, vestigal .sig powers, Power Beams
    (don't do much damage, but look flashy), ability to enhance anything to its 
    ultimate  level or corrupt it absolutely (often both).  Split from dvandom, 
    permanently

BLACK DUDE WITH THE HAT- has a hat
 
BROTHER HOOD OF EVIL NET.VILLAINS/LEGION OF NET.VILLAINS -
          the most evil, nefarious, group of them all.
**NETLURKER - similar to Multi-Tasking Man but adds net.stealth, image
         scanning, and pun slinging (+4!)  
**PROFESSOR PERHAP- makes hypothetical situations come true (killed Spelling
         Boy)
**TABLE - Evil Renegade from the past (see Table and Chair mini-series for 
       details) who can turn himself into any form of of table possible.  Has 
       wooden arm and shoots out splinters for projectile weapons.  Everyone 
       knows him.
**CHAIR - Romantic sidekick to table.  Apparently dead.
**PLOT-ERROR MAN - Once I believe this guy was "Ben", now he hangs out 
    with Table and probably has something to do with plot errors...  (Boy! I am 
     going out on a limb with that one!?)
**Y-PLEX BURP - I have no idea, I just saw it in there and included it.
***GREENRINGWRAITH - Evil mutation/a cross between a Ring Wraith and
     a Green Latern  of some sort. Thrall of Y-Plex.  Has regained true form of
     Dada Dude.
**DR. KILLFILE -  I have no idea, but I'll bet his name says something of
               his powers

CROSSOVER QUEEN - Responsible for the mess of crossovers, she seeks to
            Louise Simonsonize the whole internet.  Posibbly a replacement for 
            the Time Crapper in the post 2 1/2 month gap universe.
**ROYALTY KING - Henchman to Crossover Queen, he has strange financial
          powers related to comics. 

DIAL "D" FOR DVANDOM - with his dvandom-dial (made of Unobtainium,
    cannot be broken or stolen) he can become or split off any hero, villain or 
    other that he chooses. Such entities usually only last an issue or two, or
    until their purpose has been accomplished (example: X-chequer will
    disappear when RAC dies, Letter.Man after 1:30 AM Eastern time), but two
    have split permanently, and in fact appeared prior to D"D"D's first app.
    Motivation - Something To Do.  Sometimes a villain, sometimes a hero, 
    sometimes one posing as the other.  Has something to do with his extensive 
    Champions GMing experience.

          from entering r.a.c.
**LETER.MAN - able to survive hostile timeslots, able to entrance audience for 
            one hour, other misc abilities resembling talent
**BUSHED.WHACKED -Nolan Chance ("call me No"), Human Pincushion-Similar
        to Cannon Fodder, but he tries to look like someone else when
          he gets caulked.  Likes to dress like bushes

DR. BORING - possesses an uncanny ability to refer to events thatr happened 5-10
    years ago, has a continuopus monotone slur which seems to be a derivitive of
    Latin and English, makes fanfare over events that seem beyond trivial or 
   mundane, does long naritives on "areas of interest" that seem to confuse him,
   and tells jokes incorectly and forgetting the punchlines!


DUMB-ASS LASS - a psychotic loner who stands above coherence

E.R.N.I.E. - The Evil Regiment of Naughty Inane Editors
**PETER-OUT-SON - takes a storyline and warps it into a string of ridicuolous
              *EVENTS*
**EURYNE - unleashes fan-boyish writers onto a once proud comic traditon,
              allowing a story to become merely a bunch of *EVENTS
**HARRASS - An evil being that chases good writers off good books to pander to  
                fan-boy artists.
**DEFACTO - Pure Evil!  The leader of E.R.N.I.E.  Thinks he can write like the
           creators of the world, but canÕt.  Responsible for flooding the 
           market with net.clones!

FUNDAMENTALIST CIRCLE - a big circle, I presume

MANGA MAN - mostly in the realms of Special Effects and Timing

OMEGA.MOSELY - vanishes and reappears with the same stochastic irregularity as
               a good Batman villian

REPETITIVE LAD - To answer questions on the net that have already been 
          answered.  It wouldn't be that bad if they weren't the exact same 
          answers, only worded diferently.

THE DORFS  - horrendous ability to give callously cruel, and usually answers to
       intelligent posts, and cruelly dehumanizing responces to posts by 
       first timers who didn't know any better 

THE DUNCE CIRCLE - the members belive that their way is the only way and 
                 nobody else could ever possibly be right.

THE EDITORS - an evil group that may or may not be conected with E.R.N.I.E.

THE FAGBASHING EMPIRE - exactly

THE FAN.DOM OF THE ALT.RA- A mysterious being whose true evilness has 
          yet to be revealed.

TIME CRAPPER - Some powers about time shifting and what not, evil and
           unstable.  Possibly rendered obsolete by the events of the 2 1/2 
           month gap.

ALL KNOWING LAST CHANCE WHINER DESTINY WOMAN - Great for plot exposition, 
      she tends to be mysterious and appears and disappears whenever the reader

    like... the impending doom of RAC.

HOODED HO`'OD WIN - This ever curious hero, who recently disclosed she was a
   female hero, will pit heroes against each other in an attempt to satiate the
  curiousity of who would win in a battle.  It doesn't matter where the hero is
     or what they are doing, she can conjure them up and make them fight

        morally clean up the nets.

AMORPHOUS LAD - Mutates a lot.

AUNT COMIC-RELIEF - Whacky and Fun aunt to Continuity Champ, Aunt Comic-Relief

INTERLUDE - Will cause storylines or little interludes of thoughts from
      heroes that arent in the current story, and usually have nothing to do 
      with it.

          
APPARENT BAD_GUYS:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CHARLIE RISK, THE LIVING DECOY - Actually more of a mercenary, he

       same time... or whatever blame it this guy.

PLOTCHOPPER - If a plot gets chopped midstream you can guess its the work of
           Plotchopper.

DYSLEXIA - She is responsible for the misreading into stories, and the warping

    for the mix up in names like Cliche kid/dude/lad, and Captian Continuity and

Wild Card that shows no particular alliance...(so get w/ the program)

      martial arts films and is champion of one of the most overhyped powers
      in comics today, but he is the best at it.  Ultimate Ninja uses Ninja Bush
      to slay his enemies, as well as the Finger of Death, smiley and other 
      ancient chinese/japanese/korean/thai/tibetan/oriental secrets...
