Reformers (Original team for the Rogueverse)

Pretty self explanatory.. A group of reformed supervillains, led by Bronze Tiger. Dr. Cyber, Coldsnap, Bronze Tiger, Man-Bat, Plastic Man, Bizarro, and Pied Piper. Huge thanks to Ken for helping me figure out the roster of the team. Also, this wouldn't have been thought of if Jake hadn't done the Redeemables first. So thanks to Jake as well. Plastic man is influenced off his Young Justice Outsiders appearance.

 

Dr. Cyber

Backstory: Was mostly a cyber criminal, commanding a worldwide network of hackers, and other secret operatives. Getting into places that no one else really could. Her first encounter with Wonder Woman would leave her heavily scarred and disfigured. Years later, after being broken out of prison by Giganta, Cyber would create a super suit for herself, and face off against Wonder-Woman once more. Again, she lost. Eventually she just realized it wasn't really worth the hassle of facing off against Diana. She would soon be approached to join the Reformers, and having nothing better to do, she accepted.

 

 

Coldsnap

Backstory: Caitlin Snow, a former STAR Labs scientist turned heat vampire, Killer Frost. For years, she would feed off the heat of humans, encountering the hero Firestorm more often than she would've liked. Nobody really believed in her being capable of change, until Ryan Choi, aka Micron, came along. He truly believed that there was good inside of her, and would visit her in prison almost every day. Caitlin felt comfortable around Ryan, in a way she never allowed herself before, always afraid of what would happen. She opened up to him about her struggles with her powers. Through this, they found love, in each other. Ryan would ask the Justice League to give her a second chance, but they refused. Caitlin truly wants to do better, as Ryan believes she can. Finally, she would be offered a spot on the Reformers team, as they saw the need for her medical expertise, as well as her powers. She tries her best to keep her powers in check, making sure to not be the killer she once was.

 

 

Man-Bat

Backstory: Kirk Langstrom was a brilliant scientist, dedicated to finding a cure for cancer. He first would try using vampire bat DNA, but the experiment went wrong. It took days before Langstrom noticed the effects. His newfound hunger for blood. Becoming the monstrous Man-Bat, he would encounter Batman while feeding on a human in crime alley. The cycle would go on for years, getting put in Arkham, only to be released soon after. Batman would visit Kirk in Arkham, truly believing that he could change. It took months before Kirk would reflect upon those words, wanting to do more with his life, and to give back to those he's hurt. Upon being released from Arkham, he would get in contact with his old friend Will Magnus, trying to figure out what to do with his life. Will referred him to Francine Lee, a doctor at Gotham General. She would get him a job at the hospital. Just months after working together, they would fall in love, though Francine was still unaware of Kirk's thirst for blood. Magnus developed a specialized suit for Kirk, which he would wear when he goes out to fight crime. After a long talk with Francine, Langstrom would reveal his vampiric nature. But for some reason, it didn't scare her. It was then that she would help him find legal ways of getting the blood he needs to survive. He would soon get an offer from Ben Turner, aka Bronze Tiger, to join his team of reformed villains, simply called the Reformers.

 

Plastic Man

Backstory: Previously a member of Kite-Man's gang, Patrick "Eel" O'Brian was doing everything he could to give his son a better life. Though all he was doing was pushing his son further away. It would take some time spent in prison before he would decide to change his lifestyle for the better, and to be a better example for his son. It was a year or so later, that he would get the second chance he hoped for, asking to be part of the Reformers team.

 

Bizarro

Backstory: Misunderstood, and controlled by Lex Luthor, ever since he was created, he would be his personal security force, coming into conflict with Superman, along with the rest of the Superfamily, quite often. He thought of himself as Superman, or "Pup Pup" as he liked to use as a nickname. It would take several magic users to undo the mind control Luthor put him under, and at that point, he joined the Reformers, wanting to redeem himself, and be the Superman he knows he is.

 

Pied Piper

Backstory: After years of working with the Rogues on their various heists, facing off against Flash in a battle of wits and force, Hartley would reform, realizing that a life of crime was not for him. Another reason was that it was slowly tearing him and Captain David Singh apart.
