I'm Going to offer up Camshaft GT, who's currently in my signature, references and all.
As for the preferred duo.. I kind of think Grey's adrenalin Junkiness matching well with Cam's theme.
I'll enter up The Lounge Crooner who, should Fate smile his way, will be immortalized in art with the Grey Huntress.
I'll offer up my namesake to pair up with yours.

Biggest Troll on the forums? I'll give you a hint:
I really really reallyyyyyy want to join in again, but I wouldn't feel right if I won the lucky draw twice in a row 
So I'll be the cheerleader on the sidelines for this one. Good luck to everyone! RAH!

I'll offer up Burnt Matchstick to pose along with Grey Huntress. Feel free to choose which one suits her best should I win.
I offer up Lady Lylith to square off against Gray...
Why cause she was bored and wanted a challenge.
Lyl is a grav/fire Dominator.
She is a daughter of Lilith and Demon Lord, and a Succubus of sorts. The "telekinesis" is a natural ability she learned to control from the body she possesed when first arriving in the mortal realm. That Body has long since died and Lylith gained enough power to remain in the mortal realm as a Demonic Spirit. She views herself as a Goddess since now she truly is immortal and beyond the reach of the Netherworld and not held back by the bonds of flesh and bone. She can at will become incorperal.
She recently learned that in addition to her Primal Earth and Praetorian Earth there are at least 10 other Alternate Dimenisions that due to the circumstances and actions of very powerful beings refer to their world as "Primal Earth". She is currently traveling to each of the planes in order to search for alternate versions of herself to see what other possible outcomes are in store for her. She has located two alternate versions of the Vessel that was used to bring her forth, One being a Hero and the other turned into a Villian.
It appears that she is a unique being in the Multi-verse. A combination of Demon, human and circumstances that was not duplicated exactly in any other dimension.
Now she is merely bored and wandering the Multi-verse looking for distractions.
Ooooh, well.. how can one resist? 
I'll offer up Dance Flash for a pairing with Grey Huntress
Since Dance Flash might look the stereo typical hero and often act like it, she has little regard for those that choose to get on the wrong end of Justice! (just the easiest way to say it) and would have no issues with Grey Huntress.

I must say, this is a nice initiative and a great idea!

If you have nothing useful to say, you have two choices: Say something useless or stay quiet.
I'll put Angel Red in, to team up with Grey Huntress.
How about Anarchery, my refromed Freak bowman, with either of the girls. . . or both >_>

I think I'll put my name in for the artist part of this, if nobody minds?
TL
Here is Crescent Blade for your perusal.
Quick bio: Crescent is a young teenager that watched way too many kung-fu movies (Black Belt Jones and the Last Dragon, I'm looking at you!). His interest started when his grandfather passed away and left him two golden crescent shaped swords. He pretended to be every hero in the old kung-fu movies he and his grandfather watched. When he turned 16 he decided he was going to help take back the streets of his home in memory of his grandfather. All he has at his heroic disposal are his blades and the willpower to take down evil.
I think he'd be great in a pic with Jackalynn since he is such a young hero, I could see her easily manipulating him.... 
I'll give this a go again. I think Lady Hericane and Gray Huntress might make an interesting pairing, whether they're fighting together or against one another. References are in the sig.

Slag Heap: Why you hurt Guardian!? Guardian no hurt you!
Think I'll throw in Therra Malevola, who'd probably pair up with Demon Trix.
Therra's a creation of the Circle, of sorts. When her heroic "source" (my elec/elec blaster, Therra Arcson) was caught in a cave in during a raid on a council base and taken for questioning, the Circle couldn't pass up the chance to steal some of the hair and blood samples from the scene. While the original Therra escaped, joining with a Kheldian to become Therra Paladina - this didn't particularly bother the Circle one bit. They felt it would work to their advantage.
They didn't want to kill her - not just yet. For all the trouble she'd caused they wanted to ruin her, completely. And so they made a duplicate. Binding spirits in with her DNA and raw materials, they created what some would call a golem or homunculus - but this was a whole being, under their control. One that would act to sow confusion and discord, ruining the hero's name with the city, the press, and her family.
Things started going wrong early. Therra Arcson's patron blocked the Circle from being able to duplicate her powers. Twisting the spirit trapped inside, they gave their copy infernal powers, wielding fire and darkness.
Then the binding broke. Therra Malevola, free of the Circle's will, eliminated the mages trying to re-bind her. Their leader escaped, but the only copy of the rite left to them was lost. Now Malevola roams the world, looking for power and revenge - revenge on the mages that made her, revenge on Therra Arcson and her family who she blames for her very existance - and on anyone else who gets in her way.
(Dark blast/Thermal corruptor. Actually missing her fourth costume - red skin, burnt wings from the growth of her power. Usually not seen in the helmeted costume.)
I'd like to add Djeannie to team up with Grey Huntress

Why not?
Character: La Diablesse - a succubus that was 'accidentally' bound to the Plane of Mortals by the precursors to the Circle of Thorns, the Oranbegans. She's a free spirit that does what she likes, torments whom she likes, and generally is here just to cause trouble wherever she likes.
It'd be interesting seeing her up against Demon Trix, perhaps playing a chess game, with souls of other characters as the pieces? *evil grin*

Out of all your guys who is the most playful one, I need to fit one with RJ

Playful? o.O In combat, maybe Gray...but not casually. Definitely not Jackalynn. Demon Trix maybe.

Go go DRAT#3!
I've never had any of my characters rendered and I'd love to see one of my main Starwind.
Starwind is a Grav/Rad controller and cosmic wayfarer who came to help the troubled people of Paragon City. I'm thinking some kind of cosmic interlude or confrontation with Jackalynn would be an interesting match and kewl cosmic visual!
I'd be honored by whomever would like to do it if I'm lucky enough to be picked. I'll keep my fingers crossed!

Hi GH!
I would like to throw Proud Citizen's daughter, Poster Girl into the mix if I may. I think that she would probably team up best with Gray Huntress herself.
The Masked Shrike has a bunch of reference pics of Poster Girl here:

Oooh, or Feral Kitty vs. Grey Huntress!
The Third Round of the D.R.A.T., the Double Random Art Tossup!!!
The winners of the last D.R.A.T. were VexXxa for the character and The Foo for the artist. If you want to see how the latest commission turned out, then just follow this link: this link.
Since weve merged forums since the last D.R.A.T., Ill go over the rules for everyone again.
It is your chance to have a custom-made commission featuring your character without lifting a finger or paying a dime.
1) Basically, all you have to do is provide your name and references for the character you want to have rendered in a duo piece with Gray Huntress, Jackalynn, or Demon Trix (you decide who you would prefer in your post)! Easy as that.
2) The next step would be to wait until 9-15-09, because that's the deadline.
3) The Double Random comes from the mystery artist...I don't even know who it is because I'm leaving it to the great talented men and women in these forums to volunteer to do the commission. Don't worry; I'm paying you for the duo commission at your standard price. Near the end of the entry period, I may include artists from deviantArt to increase the chances so dont think it will be an easy win if entries are low!
4) 9-15-09: I will randomly draw among the entries for both the character and the artist. I'll bring the news to the forums, then it is all business from there.
5) If you entered a character during the last D.R.A.T. or volunteered to enter as an artist, be sure to repost in this thread if you want to join, or you could enter a new character altogether.
6) Previous winners can enter again if they so choose, since its really a gamble for everyone.
Hehe, the more the merrier!

--------------------------------------------
Heres the biography info for Gray Huntress, Jackalynn, and Demon Trix to help you decide who you would prefer posing with. If you wish to see what they look like, then feel free to take a tour of my gallery located in my siggy banner:
Gray Huntress
Age: 34
Archetype: Archery/Devices/Force Mastery Blaster
Gray Huntress hates being called a hero; she openly admits she has very little in common with her more pacifistic peers. She doesnt let the moral dilemma of right and wrong cloud her judgment, she doesnt pull punches, and her arrows are not meant to trap, stun, or apprehend theyre meant to kill. While this may suggest she is sociopathic and incapable of valuing life, this assumption couldnt be further from the truth; her experiences have taught her to never arrest someone and give them a second chance to shoot her in the back at a later date. The world is never black and white, and there is no good and evil; just millions of reasons and excuses that may apply in one scenario but not in another. Gray jumps straight into this world and while her methods are controversial, no one can deny that she gets results and the world is a little safer due to her actions.
Additionally, Gray is a bit of an adrenaline junkie. She is completely human; she doesnt have super dense skin that can stop bullets or reflexes faster than lightning yet she stands toe to toe with super-powered foes and wins. She enjoys putting herself in dangerous situations, pulling out by the skin of her teeth, and will leave her team behind if they cant keep up. Cold and cocky, reserved and bold, unrestrained and calculating; Gray Huntress is a lone wolf guarding humanity when they cant muster the strength to face the shades of gray.
As you can see Gray has two distinct faces. In times of peace, she is reclusive and cold though she is concerned about everyones well-being. When in battle, she is fiery, passionate, and arrogant she is almost playful with her peers and taunts them to keep up; after an exhilarating victory she is known to leave a trail of one-night stands if she becomes truly enraptured in the battle.
She is primarily a world-class archer, but isnt a stranger to close combat and uses her bladed-bow to cut down any opposition that gets too close. She also owns a pair of rocket boots that grants her the ability to fly; when combined with her background with acrobatics, she can prove to be an incredibly elusive target.
-----------------------------
Jackalynn
Age: 34
Archetype: Gravity Control/Energy Assault Dominator; thats the closest archetype that could fit into Jackalynns concept as a telekinetic. All her abilities are through the use of invisible force; her will is exhibited through the reactions to her powers rather than the actions.
Codename Jackalynn is everything Gray Huntress could have been if her mother, Mist Arrow and Dr. Fanakov hadnt kidnapped her from the Council test laboratories in Sicily in 1975. She is arrogant, manipulative, power-hungry, and super-powered. Though she shares Grays lethality, Jackalynn lacks her better sisters control over who deserves to die and who just dies.
Jackalynn is the primary specimen and leader of the Councils Project: Legion; a project that spawned literally hundreds of clones based off of Mist Arrows DNA. Gray Huntress is still labeled by the Council as the Perfect Specimen, because they altered her genetic code to be perfectly human in every way, shape, and form and thus the best platform for them to create a customized super-hero from scratch. The Huntress was abducted from the Project before any experiments could be performed, so Jackalynn was the next best subject.
While Gray theoretically could have held virtually unlimited power, the scientists had to choose carefully on what to do with Jackalynn; their final decision was to alter her psyche to allow her to perform advanced feats of telekinesis, because technically, with enough finesse, Jackalynn could do almost anything she could focus her mind on.
Project: Legion was officially activated two years ago when an insider tip from the Council led Gray Huntress to their base of operations. Overcome with the horror of realizing her own identity was a lie, Gray was nearly defeated by Jackalynn in combat; fortunately the rest of her team arrived to save her. Today, the Legion functions as an independent shadow organization within the Council known only to the Center and his inner circle. Jackalynn has the liberty to lead her team to whatever ends she deems necessary, or desirable; though she still performs delicate operations for her superiors when they require her services.
She loves power and exhibits her own as much for show as for purpose; she would be more likely to tear a ten-ton gargoyle off a building to use as a weapon, when telekinetically causing an aneurism would be just as effective. And Jackalynn seeks possible ways to magnify her abilities even more at whatever cost, as long as its not too personal.
-----------------------------------
Demon Trix
Age: Apparently 25
Archetype: Mind Control/Energy Assault Dominator. Using imaginative liberty, Demon Trixs energy blasts are not red; in fact theyre white light energy. In this instance, his powers show that light does not stereotypically mean the power of all that is good and holy.
Demon Trix views the mortals of the physical realm as pawns and treats them with a combination of arrogance and playfulness, supporting his views that they merely serve as his pawns. However, he can easily slip into sullen obedience when he remembers that he is merely a servant (cannon fodder even) to his superiors in the demonic hierarchy. He ambitiously aims to ascend that hierarchy to eventually become a demon prince in his own right but that is a long battle ahead of him.
Demon Trix exists physically in the mortal realm and cannot be banished by traditional means; only commanding him with his true name can accomplish that. He recently ascended to the mantle of incubus; a demon who corrupts the souls of the living by manifesting as their deepest secret desires, using their lust and pride against them. His power is far from inferior as he is a true demon, not just some temporary manifestation and he plans to do whatever is necessary to ascend to the next level.
He was summoned by the Circle of Thorns in Paragon City and was going to be bound in their eternal service for pulling him fully through the Netherworld, but, as luck would have it, heroes arrived on the scene and defeated the Circle and nullified his part of the contract. While he was taken captive by mystics and imprisoned in Zig (not after a good fight however), he patiently awaited the time of his release he had all the time in the world after all.
Arachnos eventually set him free not intentionally, and he has been slowly gaining power within the Rogue Isles. Demon Trix performs kidnappings, assassinations, manipulations, and other specialty jobs in exchange for souls either paid by the contractor or the victims who get in his way. Trix uses the souls earned as down-payments for ascension, or to use as tools for his own ends.
This demon spends his past-time indulging in the corruption of the weak, taking pleasure in the flesh, and crushing the valiant defenders of truth, justice, blah blah, and all that other junk. He also enjoys candlelight dinners and midnight walks along the beaches of Talos.
