Nice score, Troynos. I can't believe these are still popping up or hanging around any stores at all. I've been trying to get an alpine but just don't want to pay the ebay prices. I'll have to check my Marshall's again.

Oooooo I like that Tyroc. I'd probably leave Rasputin off the list since he's not royalty in anyway. But then what is Serpentor the heir to? It could be another random Country in Eastern Europe, live Borovia or Darklonia. Or something like they have in Africa where there are Ancient kingdoms where there is still a King but he is the leader of the people but not the country since the Geographics have changed so much. Like say the Kurds or something.
This reminds me who takes over Darklonia when Destro kills Darklon? Is Trans-Carpathia a country or just a region of Romania. Between Borovia and Latveria? I mean is Destro royalty? That's a good question about Darklon. Destro is a laird which is one step down from a Baron. A Laird is a landowner title and is hereditary. It's not royalty. It's interesting that his name is McCullen because Cullen is traditionally an Irish name not Scots although they're both Celtic in origin. I like to think that the family migrated to the Scottish Highlands. |

This is a cool idea Tyroc. How would the royal bloodline connect all of these great warriors exactly?

Tatiana Zerjal of Oxford University did a genetic study a few years back that traced Genghis Khan's descendants. Genghis (and his linear descendants) did a lot of pillaging and marrying and raping during the course of the Mongol Empire's existence, and what Zerjal found is that that resulted in a lot of the modern Eurasian population sharing bloodties that can be linked directly to Genghis Khan's family. About 8% of the population from the Asian mainland's Pacific coast to the Caspian Sea bordering the former USSR and the Middle East are direct descendants of Genghis Khan (that's about half a per cent of the world's total population!). That would be a plausible way to tie together the Serpentor's disparate ancestries. Last edited by zuludelta; 10-26-2009 at 09:28 PM.. |

And you have to assume that Alexander did some raping and loving along the way as well, so I'm sure there's alot of his bloodline out there as well.
If there's a secret society running things, pretty easy to explain them keeping tabs on the most promising candidates from all the bloodlines and making some arranged couplings.

I need a good name for a EOD like Tripwire and Lightfoot.
My thoughts: Blasting Cap Fireball Crater Boomer Fuse

Blasting Cap sounds good, if a little cumbersome for a nickname.
Other suggestions: Det-Cord Primer Shrapnel |

How about Lefty? Though I like Zuludelta's suggestion of Det-Cord.
