Violators
Membership
Full Time: Ing, Sybyl, Fracas, Dozer, Furnace, Kamikaze
Background / History
This band of super-saboteurs and industrial espionage specialists has been plaguing big industry across North America and the European Union for the last couple of years and have a very successful track record. They have had encounters with a number of superhero teams as well as conventional security forces, and though they have occasionally been stymied, they have largely been successful and remain at large.
Group Relations
Not much is publicly known about the inner workings of the group. However, Ing is the undisputed leader and mastermind of the group; the others do his bidding. Sybyl is the most mysterious of the group, but appears to act as an advisor to Ing, helping him plan and coordinate missions.
Fracas is hired help; Ing pays him a flat salary to be his muscle and keep the rest of the group in line if necessary. He is standoffish and surly, maintaining a "hired gun" professionalism. Dozer is young and sometimes difficult to control, but he's smart enough to recognize he's on a gravy train and not push the envelope too far.
Kamikaze and Furnace are relatively recent additions to the group and are still in the process of integrating with the groups dynamic. However both have their own personality quirks and Fracas might have to earn his paycheck to keep them under control.
Tactics
The ideal Violators job is unopposed, but in case of combat Ing generally stays focused on the mission plan and then contributes to a fighting retreat once this goal is completed...unless things go badly, in which case he prioritizes appropriately. Fracas is the group's main beater and typically engages the most obvious brick or martial artist of an opposing team, beating them into submission and moving on to the next one. Dozer is kept on a short leash as his powers are massively destructive, but when he's given a go ahead he typically just starts wrecking stuff, blasting opponents and wreaking collateral damage with little restraint...though he has learned the hard way to not "accidentally" catch one of his allies in his blasts.
Furnace is intended to function similarly to Dozer, inflicting collateral damage and forcing opposing heroes to deal with a chaotic environment. Kamikaze is intended to seek out opponents that stay back from the main engagment and knock them out of the area, destabilizing opposing support capabilities.
It is not clear what exactly Sybyl does on the rare occasions that she accompanies the group in the field.
Campaign Use
Theft / sabotage oriented group of villains who operate by having a specific mission, getting in and making it happen, and getting out. Their ideal mission involves only as much effort as necessary to accomplish the goal, but when they meet resistance in the form of security forces or supers they do what they have to in order to secure the situation.
The Violators are a dangerous group of saboteurs and industrial spies. Ing plans and executes very efficient raids to either cripple a company in some way, steal crucial business intelligence such as schematics, formula, and equipment, or all the above at a given facility. Fracas, Dozer, Furnace, and Kamikaze are around to deal with sec forces and supers, and on the missions that require massive destruction.
Public Relations
The Violators aren't splashy or theatrical. They function more like an elite military unit, executing very well planned raids and actions, often at night and always from surprise, and thus have not been much in the public eye.
However their string of successes ensure that they are treated as a real menace rather than a subject for humor or mockery by the media.
PRIMUS considers them to be a real threat, but since they target private industry they haven't committed the same level of resources to the group as they would to more mainstream villains.
Plot Seeds
  • A PC recognizes that Kamikaze isn't really of a criminal mind, and is basically just a kid that's caught up with the wrong crowd. Do they try to extract the hyperactive kid and try to turn him to good?
  • Dozer loses his temper on a job against a facility that is near to a residential area. He wipes out a good chunk of a townhouse community, causing mass destruction, injuring many people, and killing two. Now he's wanted for murder, PRIMUS want's him apprehended, and the PC's are kind of on the hook for it since it happened on their watch / in their city.
  • The green supergroup Aegis has had a few encounters with the Violators and are tired of them getting away. The PC's have fought the Violators and had success at it. They are contacted by Aegis; they want to team up and put an end to the Violators once and for all.
