There were parahumans who were fucked up before powers entered the picture, like Bitch, and there were parahumans who became monsters after they got their powers, like Bakuda. Then there were the really dangerous ones, the people who had probably been monsters before powers were even on the table, and then they got worse.
Oh jeez, yeah.
Are you talking about all the Fellowship members now? (I didn’t count, did we make it through all nine?)
And if that wasn’t bad enough, you had Bonesaw, who was like some kind of artist, as psychopaths went. The sort of person that drew other lunatics to her, just because they wanted to see what she would do next.
…and once the lunatics are together, they form a team.
Even that wouldn’t normally work as a dynamic, but as I understood it, Jack somehow managed to play them off one another and keep the group more or less intact.
So Bonesaw is the heart of the group, bringing them together in a fucked up way just by being herself. Jack is the head, scheming ways to keep things together.
He was familiar enough with the psychology of his group and just plain charismatic enough to keep them from killing one another.
Yeah… sometimes that’s necessary. When it is, that doesn’t bode well.
