From: Blackflak@aol.com Date: Fri, 5 Jun 1998 16:27:57 EDT Subject: The Great Enigma Resurrection TO: People previously involved in the Enigma Storyboard, People who Might Be Interested in Joining (if you're getting this email and don't know what it's about... that's you.) For many a moon, the floating island headquarters of Enigma, premier superteam of Earth-V (unless you count the Templars, but since Nick isn't involved, we won't), has lain fallow. The time has come to awaken the sleeping heroes. So sue me, it's a comic board. It's supposed to be melodramatic. Anyway, after discussion with Laura and Sylvia, I want to propose our "Enigma Resurrection Plan", mark one. Since no one seems to be motivated to continue with the Tucson storyline, in true high school V&V fashion, we're thinking of flashforwarding past it, to rejoin our heroes in June 1998. This gives us the opportunity to bring in new players (Welcome, Ed Han!) and establish our characters anew, fresh off our rookie mission. Here's the basics of where we'll begin (unless someone involved strenuously objects to this plan, which seems odd as that Enigma has been all but strenuous lately...): Tucson was freed and rescued by Enigma working as a team. The villain(s) behind it (Rift and his mysterious benefactor) were never found, but clues that they're still out there somewhere were found. They're considered a matter for another day. That was back in March. It's now June, and short of the usual "idiots robbing a bank" there hasn't been much danger. Warp's eyes are still black, but he's coping. Current membership of Enigma is: Warp (Douglass Barre) - Team Leader Manstalker (Doug) the Sunfighter, Kyria Vesper (Laura Redish) Aries (Evan Haag) Foxfire, aka Energy Erin (Kristin Andersen) Fallout (Jeff Hersh) Marc (Eric Gasior) S-Guy (Jonah Cohen) Kid Sidekick (Tom Coleman) Gladiatrix (Sylvia Rudy) Reserve Members: Fantasma (Laura) Fred Fiesta (Doug) Status Unknown (i.e., if they want to be members, just post as such, but they never actually joined on camera) Evelyn Pulsar (Eric) Maggie Nova (Eric) Jean-Paul Wong (Daniel Coble) If anyone objects to this plan, let me know. Otherwise, I'll put a post up on Sunday evening (enough time?) to sort of usher in the "new era". Feel free to write any flashback posts you want, as we're very flexible on the floating island. Also, anyone with any cool plot ideas, let us all know so we can rally behind something, rather than flail aimlessly! Remember, the Enigma storyboard is to be found at Enigma III Headquarters, so check it out! This is a great opportunity for people to jump on board! Email me with any questions! Warp/Doug/Newell Keeper of the Enigma Flame, or something like that.
