Editing NECESSARY EVIL in Freedom City SPOILER PAGE (section)

==IDEAS TO USE==
* '''SUGGESTION''' - putting in an article on the Khanate performing some sort of atrocity, like gathering up 200 civilians in New Orleans and shooting them, or tearing up some huge portion of the Amazon Rainforest, or stealing the brains from children to use in biocomputers - something that has already happened, that we can't stop - will bring the WSAR tone down right quick.
*  '''The MEGAS''' is a very powerful weapon. Surely, if the invaders were able to retrieve any of it, they'd want to analyze it.
* '''Farside City sells out''' to earth, making lady lunar their rep to the khanate. the twist, well, when all hell broke loose chase made it to farside, and got in a psi-war with aunty. now, one of them is functionally lobotomized, while nobody's quite sure if the smart one's mind is lunar's, chase's, or some machiavellian hybrid of the two. this gives the pc's the "do we trust them or not" Npc, somebody the khan knows could cause trouble, but could equally be more trouble than it's worth to simply remove them
* '''Lady liberty''' went down swining, but she was most certainly killed. and then an hour later she died again. two conflicting reports of her death came 15 minutes apart. even now, after the invasion's shattering success, there are reports of a powered terran female aiding the resistance, no matter how many times they kill her. the spirit of freedom lives on, despite the sisyphean task before the latest martyr to be...  the Spirit of Freedom thing could be cool... in fact... given the Earth's scenario... it wouldn't be too unlikely for the Spirit to possess a female villainess. After seeing her brother (Rant) die fighting the Star Khan's forces... Rave becomes the new Lady Liberty...  Lady Liberty is in many ways the personification of freedom and liberty. So what happens if she's locked in an alien super-prison? If you allow the possibility of some sort of sympathetic magic going on (like a voodoo doll writ large) then maybe the very concept of freedom itself is going to take a hit. Perfect for creating an alien controlled dictatorship.  Lady Liberty is, essentially, the spirit of freedom and liberty. If you confine the spirit of freedom, he is saying that freedom at large would suffer.  Pretty much spot on. It's a touch metaphysical I know, but it makes sense in a comic-book sort of way. A symbol of a thing can be used to influence the original thing itself (like a voodoo doll can influence the person it represents). So while Liberty is in chains, people are less likely to rise up and free themselves, more willing to accept the domination of the alien police-state and knuckle under. The very concept of being free is somehow harder for most people to grasp, less important.  Nasty, Necessary Evil type thought: If the still living body* of Beth Walton-Wright is being held captive in order to enslave the Spirit of Liberty. then freeing her would be a coup for the resistance. But there's more than one way to ... free the spirit, so to speak. If Beth is killed, the spirit could be released (to posess others as another poster has suggested), but presenting such a stark choice to PCs who are on the verge of turning from villains into heroes could be an interesting opportunity for roleplaying.  (*"still living body" could mean anything from a completely intact young woman to a brain in a jar, depending on how dark you want to be.) 
* '''Dr Metropolis''' meanwhile is the embodied spirit of Freedom City itself. So what happens if he's brainwashed and kept under alien control? Applying the same principles, maybe Freedom City starts getting a little darker, roads & infrastructure aren't repaired as quickly as they used to be and everything is getting a little run down.  (Interesting side point, could Doc Metro actually be killed while the city exists? Or when his current incarnation died would his replacement be spawned somewhere hidden in the city. Again finding the newly reborn Doc Metro could make an excellent plot point, especially if he was feral or childlike in his new incarnation requiring the PCs to help him develop an actual personality & sense of self.) 
* '''Foreshadow''', it would be really cool if he's left messages for them in the form of recordings, or videos, or Cd Roms, or something. Kind of like how an X-men team is searching for the "Books of Destiny"
* '''Villains Against Tyranny a scenario''', the Mindmaster sends a few broken and beaten heroes of his world through a portal in an effort to retrieve their more ruthless counterparts. The Mindmaster implores them to work with him, but also makes sure to have the threat of dimensional abandonment on his side. Maybe one member of the Tyranny Syndicate has lost interest in ruling and wishes instead to do something that may destroy the world in the process- maybe gain ultimate power, maybe just make a sacrifice to Mr. Infamy, maybe looking to conquer the world next door after wiping it clean of life. Perhaps the Tyranny Syndicate is raising in army in preparation to invade Earth Prime. Something big enough that the players feel motivated to stop it.
*  '''Centurion DIES''':  Centurion and Omega are locked in mortal combat. Each of these super-powered beings exchanging punch for punch. Each fist-fall sounds like thunder echoing through the buildings of Freedom City. <br> Each pugilist fights back fatigue and pain to continue the violent dance. Centurion finally starts to get the upper hand. He manages to throw Omega into the side of a building. The building collapses and Omega is pinned... but not for long. Centurion catches his breathe and readies himself for what he knows is coming. Omega slowly rises from the rubble. The battle has obviously taken its toll. Both of the titans square off against each other for what they each know will be a final confrontation. <br> They charge towards each other. They clash... windows blow out and concrete cracks as their struggle is renewed.  <br> In the end, Omega is defeated and his smashed body is hurled back into the Terminus by Centurion. <br> The rift between the two worlds had to be closed. Centurion, realizing that if the rift was not closed, another invasion would be a certainty, flies up to the opening and in a heroic gesture uses the remaining energy in his body to seal the rift. As the last of the rift blinks out of existance, Centurion relaxes knowing that he has stopped the invasion. With that, his epic battle takes its toll and Centurion falls from the sky. On impact he creates a small crater. Centurion, slips free from the restraints of the mortal realm and journeys beyond.  <br> to beat Omega, centurion literally tore him out of his armor <br> the Sentry Statue (the big one) was erected where he fell, but his actual gravesite is a closely guarded secret, to prevent desecration by the really spiteful bad guys. he probably was buried in Freedom City but odds are most heros/villains think his body's in Ultima Thule
