The Specials

The Specials are the worlds' lowest ranked superhero team in the 2000 movie The Specials. When evil appears and everyone else is busy, call on The Specials. Having sloppy control over their powers leads to a lot of collateral casualties.
==The Strobe==
aka Ted Tilderbrook, leader of The Specials and husband of Ms. Indestructible, The Strobe is almost naive in his wholesomeness. He loves to gives speeches about the responsibility of being a hero, and they can get a bit rambling and bizarre.
The Strobe has the ability to shoot lasers from his arms. He gained his powers after falling into a vat of radioactive chemicals with his brothers. His brother Jerry gained super speed and was known as Zip Boy until he gave up being a hero for an office job. The Strobe is played by Thomas Haden Church.
==Ms. Indestructible==
aka Emily Tilderbrook, Ms. Indestructible has skin that can not be harmed. Useful versus blades and bullets (or an atomic blast), but she still bruises. Ms. Indestructible is played by Paget Brewster.
==Weevil==
aka Tony, the most popular member of The Specials. He wears costume antennas on his head, but only for the press. His self-centered vanity has led The Crusaders to trying to recruit him.
Weevil gained his powers at age 14 when he ate an ancient Egyptian insect. He has weevil agility, strength, and senses. Weevil is played by Rob Lowe.
==Amok==
Former villain that got caught by The Crusaders. At age 19 he was involved in a plot to give people scabies.
Amok can create antimatter blasts. Amok is played by Jamie Kennedy.
==Power Chick==
Power Chick is a relentlessly positive person. She has appeared on the covers of Time and Out magazines. She has taken up caring for Alien Orphan like a toddler, and named him 'Doug'.
Power Chick can change the composition of her matter into another substance she is touching. This turns her into a human shaped mass of concrete, or rubber. Power Chickis played by Kelly Coffield Park.
==Alien Orphan==
Arriving from space in a UFO, Alien Orphan is a truly alien being. He has no concept of human social norms and knows barely any English. As a result his behavior can be extremely erratic.
Originally a gooey sphere, Alien Orphan has the power of shape shifting. He retains a green color when changing forms, even his 'essentially human' shape. Alien Orphan is played by Sean Gunn.
==Mr. Smart==
Self-proclaimed smartest man alive. Mr. Smart is eccentric when it comes to social norms, especially when it comes to his appearance.
Mr. Smart invents new high-tech gadgets, although many are of dubious value. He also excels at trivial skills not normally associated with intelligence, such as pinball (not chess) and the word search (not crosswords). Mr. Smart is played by Jim Zulevic.
==U.S. Bill==
Dollar themed hero U.S. Bill never removes his mask, he still lives with his mother and is paranoid about villains targeting her. U.S. Bill has the intelligence of a child and is self-conscious about it, especially around Mr. Smart.
U.S. Bill has super strength, and is played by Mike Schwartz.
==Deadly Girl==
Deadly Girl cares deeply about her friends, this is hidden beneath an abrasive personality.
Deadly Girl can travel into the world of the dead. This can be used to teleport or to summon demons. Deadly Girl is played by Judy Greer.
==Minute Man==
aka Tim Tilderbrook, Minute Man is subtly bad at communicating. People misinterpret his hero name, costume, small talk and insults.
(\ mī-ˈnüt \) Man can shrink to a few inches tall, but the public calls him (\ˈmin-ət \) Man. Minute Man is played by James Gunn.
==Nightbird==
aka Shelly, is the newest member of The Specials. She's been a big fan for their entire 10-year history. 
Nightbird has marginally useful bird powers. She has enhanced hearing, doesn't trigger threat response from birds, and lays eggs. Nightbird is played by Jordan Ladd.
==Eight==
Eight(He/Him) is the most enigmatic of the Specials, refusing to do any publicity. He takes it even further, refusing to vote on any internal Specials matters as well. His avoidance of giving an opinion may be why he chose to join the least popular hero team in the first place.
Eight has one mind but multiple bodies of various races and genders. He is rumored to be the result of a CIA experiment. Eight is played by John Doe, Abdul Salaam El Razzac, Lauren Cohn, Tom Dorfmeister, Chuti Tiu, Johann Stauf, Brian Gunn, and Samantha Cannon.
==Merchandise==
Kosgro Toys created a line of toys for the specials. The toys are terrible, made out of surplus parts and wildly inaccurate. They even cast Alien Orphan and Deadly Girl as villains.
