[BNW] re: Jyhad and The Suicide Squad

["Steve Crow" <crow_steve@hotmail.com>]

Actually, going through my Suicide Squad/Task Force X/Belle Reeve 
Sourcebook, a few corrections to what I said yesterday.

Ravan was the member I couldn't remember.  He was a Hindu thugee assassin 
who was updating the cult for the new millenium.  Believed that each person 
he killed and devoted to Kali delayed the Kali Yogi (or some such - 
basically the age of Chaos) by a thousand years.  He used a garrotte, kris, 
and explosive pickaxes to quickly "bury" his kills as per Thugee tradition.  
He was also a master martial artist.  Was crippled in his first appearance, 
came back with a exo-suit that basically let him do the same schtick.  It 
was claimed the suit improved his speed and reflexes even further, but he 
got beaten just as easily the next time around.  When the Squad went 
freelance, he joined them as a member, and died battling Kobra, the supposed 
avatar of Chaos.  Again, this seems very much a BNW kind of concept.

Badb:  That is the correct spelling for the Irish kid with the sonic blast 
power.  She also had some kind of broadcast empath/fear ability, but that 
plus Screamer would probably make her too powerful vis a vis BNW.

Jaculi:  That was the correct spelling.  Both were pretty lame.  The second 
one got her kneecaps blown out by Deadshot (the Squad's resident Gunner).  
When she pointed out she'd be back for revenge if he left her like that, he 
shurgged, said, "Okay," and shot her in the head.

Actually, I'm probably going to reconstruct all of these in BNW terms for my 
web site, as I get the time over the next few weeks.
