Would you have been on the Omega Team?

My best character, and my only 50, would definately go on omega team. omega team just fits him he is utterly useless in long drawn out battles that require damage absorption but he is awesome at dealing massive damage all at once. He is eather the first one to die on a team or the one who bails out everyone else at his own expense, either way he dies.

I would've sent in my Tanker Silverissa. She isn't gonna die to Rikti, period.

I'ld go to Praetoria

If what was meant as what which team would your char have chosen, knowing the price...
Well during the war my char Lady Arete was stuck in the Zig. It was part of her time to reflect of her life and what she had done and wanted undone. She did not know much about the war until it was almost over and by that time it was too late.
The sorceress was sort of forgotten and not released until Statesmans call to heroes.
However if she knew about what happened (and it happened in her years as a hero)... she would join the Omega team. Knowing teleportation spells she would try to keep her team mates alive and several steps away from the enemy on the world that would be their "new" home. (and use fire spells as that is her primary/secondary powers) Unless she would be killed before she had a chance to make a fake death of the heroes.
No matter she would have gone to save Earth.

The other chars I got are usually mutants so they would not be of much use in the Omega team...

Diamond my main, would go if asked indeed. She is very much a silver age style guardian with hints of the golden age heroism in her. People are dying, some have to sacrifice to ensure that others would live. She would give her life for others, it is basically what she does every night...with the chance of dying. This time well its just a guarentee but with meaning.

My Villain Thorn, depends actually, having no love for the Rikti, she isn't against slaughtering them at willl but is not one for self sacrifice. It would take someone important to her (There are really only one or two) being killed by the Rikti for her to be angry enough to die trying to kill Rikti.

Most of my other alts would really not fit into the Omega Team make up. Though as Heroes they would go if asked for the most part.

I don't know!....It would seem that If a bunch went to sacrifice their live's, The Rikti would have more to examine and better prepare themselves for future invasions against certain tech/magic powers...or whatever source that powers you.

Just as how we have Rikti slabs, they do the same process of examinations. Why not just get a Nemisis automaton, strap an "OMEGA WAVE RIKTI ANNHILATOR"tm pat pending. Open portals to major areas with a letter attached ---> <--- to each one....and BOOM!



NO MO RIKTI!!

Alpha Team, Omega Team, Shmega Team.
In character most of my characters, both Hero and Villain would enter the fray.

A couple of the villains would weigh their options first, then decide that fighting the Rikti was necessary for their goals, but none of them would back down from a fight.
Well, on second thought:
Cinae Exodus (Fire/Kin-Ruptor) would fight the Rikti, buy stay on Earth. Her goal is to return to the Past once she has gained power enough to stop Zoria from starting the Circle of Thorns.
Lt. Ferber (Bots/FF MM) would fight the Rikti, but stay on Earth, as he wants to return to the Future, and he can't do that if he is in another universe, and Rikti have destroyed the Earth, thus making human colonization of Mars in the 2500's impossible.
Kobold Kommando (Nin/Nin Stalker) would be the one character who would not stand up to the Rikti. Kobolds aren't known for "Bold", they're known for "Sneaky". Also, see: Filthy, Cowardly and Back-Stabbing.

In my two mains back-story, they jumped at the call, only to have their parents grab their collars and say "Nuh-uh. Not nearly well trained enough, Sprouts!", as the tried to head out the door.

I don't really have a main as such; just a lot of alts. My two 50 are Mutant and Technology and don't qualify. My highest Magic character is The Darkness That Burns, a bodiless creature of malice and hunger who probably wouldn't join, and if it did so would only do so for the opportunity to attack from behind at the worst, most destructive moment. Not that it'd be invited; I see the interview going something like this:

Hero 1: "Well, what can you contribute to our cause?"

Darkness: "Pain. Suffering. Make you all burn, drown the ashes in darkness."

Hero 1: "Ummm. You DO understand the concept of 'team', right?"

Darkness: "Te'Am? Ice demon. His suffering was delicious."

As for one who would join; I think this thread deserves a link. "If one of my heroes was on Omega team..."; a bunch of letters as if written for the recently opened time capsule. Mine was from my DB/Fire brute Burning Blood, who would have gone as he explains:

If you've read the other thread on the Omega Team letters, you'd have noted two submissions from me, both of which clearly state that I would have been on the Omega Team, because "Someone has to do it. Someone has to be there."

Without question, my Main Mentalshock would have gone on Omega Team, even though he's of a mutant origin, not magic. Of course, the reason that he would have gone is because he is actually a rehumanized Rikti. Needless to say, he wants to see the Lineage of War stripped of their power, and made to face the consequences of their intended Xenocide of humanity.

My brute, Talon Pyre, probably would not have gone, only because he'd realize the potential shift in the balance of power that would result from the number of heroes lost in the attempt.
