European Supers

France:

Chanteclair: Chanteclair uses his sound-based powers to protect Paris. His trademark move is a cockerel's crow that can paralyse just about anyone in earshot. He's been effective to the point that the sound of a cockerel's crowing will make any Frenchman who's done something really wrong a bit paranoid.


Martin Matin: Martin is a schoolkid who wakes up as something different every day. For example, he's been confirmed to have been transformed into an alien, a dragon, a musketeer, and even as a paragon-type superhero. Each transformation of his lasts until the next morning.

The main problem that Martin has with his transformation, is that he often ends up in a dangerous situation which has something to do with what he's currently become and which usually requires his wits and whatever skills and powers his transformation has given him to get back out of it. And when Martin doesn't transform, it's because his circumstances have changed. For example, the second incident of Martin being 'normal' again turned out to be him becoming really unlucky.

He has no control at all over what he becomes, and he has even been gender-swapped on two occasions (He returned to being a boy again the next morning). In fact, the first recorded transformation made Martin part-dragon! The biggest psychological issue that Martin has is that he perceives the transformation as a form of unique handicap. What he wants the most is either no more transformations, or some way to control them.

He is helped by his girlfriend Roxanne and his best friend, Gromo. They will follow him anywhere, from a witch's apartment, to alien worlds and even to the depths of Hell if need be.

Which actually happened once when Martin woke up as a demon one morning, complete with a Martin-sized Abyssal Trident next to his bed. At school, he found a lift that allowed him to access the Pit. He was given a contract to sign, the offer for which was simple: No more transformations. A succubus disguised as Roxanne was convincing Martin to sign the contract, not knowing that the real Roxanne was watching the deal from an air vent. NO ONE was taking her Martin, especially not some demonic impostor! She burst out of the vent and grabbed the succubus by her tail, the sight of which - and Roxanne's telling Martin what he was really giving away in exchange - left him with no other choice but to reject the bargain before it could be signed. The chase back to the lift - and their only chance to safely get back to Earth - was the fastest that the three kids ever ran in their lives.

Everyone in Paris who wants to keep their presence in the city a secret is worried that Martin's next transformation will require them to deal with him. Half because they run the risk of exposure just trying to keep him from messing with their agenda, and half because they don't want to be seen breaking the Traditions by harming a child, which will likely have every super in the world after them.

Martin has gotten used to dealing with the supernatural, having literally been to Hell and back, and even encountering the Pesedjet (Egyptian pantheon) and the Dodekatheon (Greco-Roman pantheon) on separate occasions.


Miraculeuse Coccinelle (Miraculous Ladybug): Marinette Cheng is a Franco-Chinese schoolgirl who has recently inherited a pair of ladybug ear-rings that allow her to become the Miraculous Ladybug. What little footage there has been of her shows that she does parkour to get around Paris, and that she also appears to possess probability manipulation abilities, which she uses in order to protect herself and bystanders.


La Pucelle (The Maid): This master swordswoman wields the arming sword believed to have been originally used by Joan of Arc.


La Sorcière Verte (The Green Witch): The Green Witch (Who refuses to reveal her real name) is well known in the occult scene for her occasional experiments with techno-magic. She once encountered Martin Matin when he was turned into a witch himself for the day. She kept his flying broomstick as compensation for accidentally breaking her window, and has since gotten it under control. She is known to be one of the admins for MagicNet, the most popular website, forum and wiki for magicians around the world.



Germany:

Geselle (Journeyman): This speedster triggered his metagene just before his journeyman years in electrical engineering. After he completed his two-year Walz, the Deutsch Schutz Liga - Germany's most well-known superteam - invited him to join them. His weapon of choice is his old Journeyman's Staff. He has a major beef with Blitz, the Neo-Nazi speedster, for making Germany look bad.


Tabaluga: This friendly dragon is known all over Germany because of the TV show he did with ZDF. He often helps nearby firemen, who are very grateful to know someone who's completely flameproof for the really dangerous rescues.



United Kingdom:

Faceoff: Faceoff is an armed vigilante in the mould of the Punisher. He's currently wanted for several gangland killings.

The thing is, due to said killings being of those gangsters and villains who MI-5 and the Ministry are unable to touch, there would be a massive P.R. backlash if they bust Faceoff without proof of him harming an innocent.


The Griffin: The Griffin is a London-based vigilante who recently gained his powers after he survived a near-death experience. His powers include enhanced toughness, the ability to speak and read any language (He found out about the speaking part of this power when he ordered a doner kebab on his way home and the staff were wondering how he could now speak Turkish fluently. He realised the reading part when he passed through the Chinese language section of his local library a day after the kebab incident, and realised that he understood the titles on the spines) and there are two things that he knows are going to attract attention.

He now has a pair of feathered wings that he can hide or reveal where needed (which means he can still pass for normal outside of the MCM Comic Con) and he is now in possession of a gleaming sword (he uses a holdall to carry it when he isn't expecting trouble or out for blood).

One thing that Griffin wants to keep quiet about is the fact that he's autistic. It's the main reason he won't touch drugs stronger than chocolate or caffeine without a medical reason. That and the short tempers that are known to run in his family. To date, Knight and Squire are the only two people in the superhuman community who are actually aware of his exact condition (let's see you try to keep someone with Skill Mastery: Insight and Postcognition from finding out about something like that), and the telepathic Officer Benbow of the Ministry of Powers is aware as well (due to her being able to recognise mental disorders because of how they affect the appearance of someone's mindscape). Everyone else just thinks there's definitely something unusual about him, even by superhuman standards.


Knight and Squire: Cyril Sheldrake is the second person to assume the mantle of the Knight, and is considered to be Britain's greatest hero. Beryl Hutchinson used her communication powers to get Cyril to turn his life around when he couldn't handle the responsibility of the Knight's legacy. She was made the new Squire for her efforts. The Knight has been an ally of Batman on several occasions.


NOTE: The vast majority of European supers, whether or not they're heroic or villainous in nature, will absolutely refuse to cut a deal with or otherwise work alongside anyone known to be a Fascist or Communist of any sort under any circumstances. The only supers known to work with Fascists or Communists at all are those who are also motivated by the same form of extremism. And extremism is the only word that the European supers all willingly use for such beliefs.
