[video] Welcome to Legion World
[A young woman with dark skin and closely-cropped black hair appears on the screen. She's wearing an easy smile, but her eyes are alert.]
Hello everyone. I'm Jazmin Cullen, also known as Kid Quantum, Legion Leader. I wanted to officially welcome you to Legion World, and this reality, and assure you that we are doing everything we can to get you back home where you came from. You're all welcome to stay here on Legion World, regardless if you've taken the oath and agreed to help us out while you're here. Those of you who did take the oath or have offered to help out in other ways, don't worry, we'll have you positioned shortly.
We've prepared classes to familiarize yourself with the United Planets and the technology level here so that you can function independently here. If you're joining the Legion, we have additional classes for you to take.
[Her smile widens, briefly.]
Yeah, I know, you're thrilled about having to do more homework to help us out, but hey, we don't just hand those rings out like candy.
[She reaches forward a the image shakes as she takes her omnicom in hand.]
Like I said before, I'm Legion Leader, and here are a few other important faces.
[She turns the omicomm as she speaks, showing the other members of the Legion.]
Matter-Eater Lad is my deputy leader, if you need to get in touch with me, your best bet is generally to find him. It's not that I'm dodging you, but I'm out and about a lot. He's agreed to make sure that at least one of us is available to you.
Ferro has taken on responsibility for introducing you to media, games, sports, and other forms of entertainment in this era. He also has experience in making the switch from a different era, and he's said that he'd be happy to help you with yours.
Gates has offered to help you familiarize yourselves with the culture of the United Planets in the 31st century, as well as the many and varied cultures within it. He promises that they will be informative and engaging.
Bouncing Boy will be teaching starship piloting and is the support staff coordinator. If you want to learn to drive in this era, or if you need to talk to anyone on support staff, talk to him.
If you have any interest in hand-to-hand combat, you're going to want to talk to Karate Kid. I also personally recommend his meditation training if you've found yourself with new powers that you're not quite sure how to control yet.
For those of you who've joined the Legion, Timber Wolf will be your field instructor. He'll be looking out for you in the field, and your primary trainer for working with each other.
Umbra will be instructing you in power control and battlefield tactics. Even if you're not working with the Legion, it would be a good idea to take the former class if you have powers you're unfamiliar with.
Brainiac 5 will be providing tech support, science lessons, and mentoring for those of you who are interested in engineering.
Dreamer is our source of catastrophe warnings outside of the official reporting system. If you hear her yelling, you should probably suit up.
[The camera stops on Kid Quantum again, and she presses a button, causing two images to display on the screen.]
You've already met Dr. Gym'll, our head physician, and Dr. Ry'krr, who is in charge of assisting with the handling of mental health. They'll still be filling those same roles now. Additionally, one of the other sentients who arrived recently, Dr. Arbuckle, will be assisting Dr. Gym'll.
[The images disappear. Kid Quantum smiles again.]
Even though I wish it wasn't under these circumstances, welcome to the Legion World. If you need help with anything please don't hesitate to ask us or the staff.

Re: Video
I wish you good luck there, too. We get into too much trouble professionally; but we've always pulled it off so far.
Re: Video
But then that sounds like something I said not too long ago.
If you can count on anything it's that people who want to do good are gonna run into opposition somewhere down the line. [If nothing else, this guy respects your mission statement, Kid.]
Re: Video
Re: Video
There are many reasons for my codename, fellow crimefighter, but we'll start with the most tactically important: Villain behavior. Most Core-ward baddies follow pretty predictable trends, and one of their favorites is shouting your codename in anger before attacking. You know, "Curse you, Bouncing Boy! Damn Xanthu for birthing you, Kid Quantum!" and then "zap zap zap zap zap" with their guns or eyebeams or whatnot.
So the longer the codename the more time you have for a first attack. "Matter-Eater Lad" has five Interlac-standard syllables, giving me on average about one to two more seconds more than most Legionnaires to identify the weak points-typically the neck, eyes or gonads-and strike. For more information on that, I can send you a copy of my paper "Species of the Galaxy and Where to Kick Them in a Fight".

no subject
Re: Video
I need this paper. For reasons.
[She cocks her head to the side.]
Do they actually say your full name when they're yelling? Because back home, people usually just swear.
