Origin and Background: The mutant known as Arclight, Philippa Sontag used to serve with the American ground forces in Vietnam. The experience proved traumatic for her and she's still haunted by the memories from that place. After returning home she redirected her rage into body building, which further augmented her mutant abilities after which she started to work as a mercenary.

Some time in the past she was recruited by Mr. Sinister to join his group the Marauders, the largest collection of superhuman slayers ever assembled, and has since been part in all the major operations of Sinister (including the Morlock Massacre). Quite soon she became a couple with her teammate Scalphunter, which probably is the only person she cares about. Arclight continues as a henchman of Mr. Sinister and like all the other Marauders she's been brought back from death several times by replacing her with an identical clone of the original. She seems to be on the Marauders team on a permanent basis, much like teammates Harpoon, Malice, Scalphunter and Scrambler.

Combat Tactics/M.O.: From what's been portrayed, Arclight's preferred tactic is to punch solid surfaces, using her "shockwave" to cause her opponents to loose their footing, and fall to the ground.

Personality/Character Traits: Like most of the Marauders, very little of her personality has been revealed.

Malice

Identity: ?
Side: Evil
Affiliation: Former Leader of the Marauders
Sex: Female
Age: ?
Level: 7
Training: Endurance

Powers:
1. Non-Corporalness (Permanent): Malice is a psionic entity and has no physical body of her own. She must possess the body of others to interact with the physical world. Those she possesses manifest a cameo-like choker around their neck. It's unknown whether this is a physical artifact or an illusion.In energy form, Malice can move through solid objects and has no need to eat, breathe, or sleep. PR=7 per hour to remain in non-corporal form, when not possessing a host body.
2. Possession: Malice has the ability to possess a human host and force him or her into submission. Once the victim is possessed, Malice makes use of the host's memories and abilities as desired. Malice feds by forcing the host to perform evil actions. Attacks as Mind Control; Victim must save vs. INT or CHR (whichever is higher) on d100 to resist attack; if successful the character physically possesses victims body and can control his victim's physical actions, powers, abilities, etc. R=Touch, PR=20 to take control. PR=1 per hour to maintain control. The victim may try to reassert control once per day, and will regain control of their actions by making a successful save.

STR: 12
END: 14
AGL: 12
INT: 14
CHR: 12

Origin and Background: The psionic entity Malice was recruited by Mister Sinister to join his Marauders. As a member of that organization, Malice body hopped through a number of female X-Men, including Dazzler, Rogue and Storm. But Storm's will was too strong, and she forcibly ejected Malice from her body. During the Marauders attack on Polaris, Malice possessed the powerful mutant. As their two energy matrices interwove, the two women became permanently bound together. Mr. Sinister had known this union would occur, but failed to warn Malice of it because he had specific plans for the now-blended entity.

Combat Tactics/M.O.: Malice's typical form of persuasion was appearing in a mirror and getting the subject to agree that life could be better if they would use evil means to gain the result.

Personality/Character Traits:

Vertigo

This power induces effects ranging from mild disorientation and vertigo to unconsciousness. Vertigo can focus her power on one or more individuals, or project it outward from herself in all directions, affecting everyone within her range of influence. Note: Vertigo is not immune to her own powers. Attacks as Emotion Control. R=CHR, maximum area affected = <<< Place Holder >>>, PR=5.
2. Heightened Expertise: +4 to hit with her powers.

<<< Place Holder >>>>

Origin and Background: Vertigo is a native of the Savage Land and obtained superhuman powers at a young age by genetic engineering. She was initially a member of the Savage Land Mutates, empowered by Magneto, with whom she first battled the X-Men before joining the Marauders.

Origin and Background: The exact details of his recruitment by Mister Sinister to the mercenary group known as the Marauders are unknown.

Combat Tactics/M.O.:

Personality/Character Traits: Over-confident and blood-thirsty not much more has been revealed about Prism's background or personality.

Notes: Prism literally has a glass jaw, this dude has been killed and has been cloned more times than I change my underwear. He's the Marauder's equivalent of the red shirted security personnel on Star Trek. Part of the reason I only wrote him up as 4th level is that he never hangs around long enough to gain much experience.

I made a few minor tweaks to a couple of the write-ups.
