 Yes your right White Crow the official BNW info is second hand at best,Both
Narrators in the Defiants and Delta Prime source books are telling like it
is from there view, Only in the back do you find the real truth. Truth
freely admits that she lies, That's one of the reasons Minuteman refused to
join the Defiance. You said yourself White Crow the Defiance is about trust
In truth Minuteman doesn't fully trust Truth,


 Secondly the web page that inspire me to create this Super Hero team is the
following, Http://myfreedomforce.com is the page please feel free to look at
the page. Freedom Force the PC game takes place in 1962 at the beginning of
the Sliver Age of comics, This was the time that both Stan Lee and Jack
Kirby became the great comic men that they are today. Alot of good Comics,
Super Hero teams and Characters came out this time period.



  Thirdly my character Minuteman all though he is in his mid twenties which
means he is a young idealistic Delta, He is a Tough but also has the Heroic
trait as one his flaws. He wouldn't kill but he will knock a few heads
around, Specially to get his point across. Minuteman is old fashion two
fisted Hero, Minuteman would be more then happy to pound the Bill of Rights
into group like the Sons of Odin.
