Back to Supervillains
Of all active villain groups in New York City, the most infamous one is the New Predators. A diverse team of supervillains, they joined forces a few years ago in order to take control of the NY underworld. They often clash with the Liberty League, and have on occasions worked with Doctor Knack.
Leadership of the group is usually disputed between Tsunami and Graviton.
- Tsunami: A young woman from a Yakuza family, Tsunami escaped from Japan when her relatives and their associates got slaughtered by Doc Prometheus. She took with her a magical artifact that she has since bonded with, and which grants her high-level control over water.
- Stretch: The supervillain known as Stretch would be little more than a street thug were it not for his mutation. With some super-strength and a highly elastic body, he is both a dangerous combatant and a master of disguise, capable of taking anyone's shape.
- Graviton: The original Graviton was a tech-based villain from Venture City. Upon his death, he managed to transfer his gravity-controlling battlesuit to his cousin, who embraced the supervillainous legacy, and has been spending his loot on upgrades for the suit.
- Combustion Man: A mutant Brute, Combustion Man possesses both the power to surround himself with flames and superhuman strength.
- Ammunition: A deadly mercenary. It is unknown where Ammunition has obtained her high-tech arsenal, but it makes her a very real threat even to powerful metahumans.
- Drain: This mutant combines superhuman agility with the power to sap his foes' energy.
- Brick: An extremely strong mutant, Brick was an average member of the New Predators until recently. It is unknown how, but in a recent battle with the Liberty League, he has displayed flight, force-fields and energy blasts that easily made him the strongest member of the team. Whatever the source of his power-up is, it is believed that he is using his new clout to take over the New Predators and establish control over other criminal organizations in the area.
