Characters

Who are the Serpent Society, you ask?  Well, they're a group of super-villain mercenaries-for-hire who in the past have gone up against Captain America, the X-Men, A.I.M., etc.  Their costumes and super-powers are based off of various snakes.  Here's a rundown of the core members of the Society:

 SIDEWINDER -- The former leader of the Serpent Society, Sidewinder brought the criminals together in exchange for the promise that they'd never be imprisoned again.  He has the ability to teleport by using his cape.  He was eventually betrayed by his fellow Serpents when they turned on him to work for Madame Viper.

 COBRA -- One of the original members of the Serpent Squad and longest-running snake-themed villain, Cobra quickly took up Sidewinder's offer to be in his Serpent Society.  He's extremely flexible, and his bones inable him to squeeze into very tight objects, such as pipes or holes.  After Sidewinder's stint as leader, Cobra took over under the name "King Cobra," and has been leading them ever since.

 DIAMONDBACK -- A super-villainess with no actual super power, she instead uses acid-laceddiamonds that she throws at her enemies.  She was one of the original members of the Serpent Society, and soon she fell in love with Captain America, which caused her to rethink her criminal occupation.  She was banned from the Serpent Society, and formed a mercenary group with her Serpent Society friends, Asp and Black Mamba, called the "B.A.D. Girls".

 BUSHMASTER -- A quadriplegic who was given cybernetic limbs and a tail in place of his legs by the Roxxon Oil Company in order for him to become a criminal mercenary.  He had sharp daggers connected to his arms that he used to fight.  He was very loyal to Sidewinder, and later Cobra.

 BLACK MAMBA -- Formerly a call-girl, Black Mamba has the ability to pluck the image of her victim's most cherished loved one and use it against them.  She quit the Serpent Society when her best friend, Diamondback, was ousted, and went on to serve with her friends in "B.A.D. Girls Inc."

 ANACONDA -- A huge woman, Anaconda is an aggressive villainess who's always looking for a fight.  She has the ability to elongate her arms and legs, and uses her super-strength to constrict her enemies.  She can also breathe underwater.  She usually talks without thinking, which tends to get her into trouble.

 ASP -- Once an exotic Egyptian dancer, Asp became a super-villainess with the power to shoot out electrical blasts that can stun her opponents.  She's usually soft-spoken and passive, but during Diamondback's trial, she chose to leave the Society and join her friends in "B.A.D. Girls, Inc."

 RATTLER -- One of the original Serpent Society members, the Rattler has a bionic tail which generates vibrations, which can shake up his victims.  He's quite intelligent, and knows when an enemy is too strong for him to handle alone.

 DEATH ADDER -- Served alongside Anaconda and Black Mamba in Sidewinder's Serpent Squad, Death Adder is a silent but deadly villain with poison-tipped claws that can kill instantly.  He's utterly ruthless, but he has made a mark on his fellow Society members, and is especially close to Anaconda and Black Mamba.

 COTTONMOUTH -- A super-villain with the ability to extend his jaw.  He also has steel fangs, which allow him to take a chunk out of anything with his teeth.

 PRINCESS PYTHON -- Actually has no gimmick to her except her pet python which she has tamed herself and can control easily.  Her fear makes her an outcast with the other Society members, and her stint with the Serpent Society is short-lived.

 COACHWHIP -- One of the new Serpent Society members, Coachwhip has link-whips which extend from her hands, and she uses them to flay her victims.  She's very sensitive to sunlight, and she's King Cobra's sleazy lover.

 BOOMSLANG -- One of the new Serpent Society members, Boomslang has boomerangs in the shape of snakes that he throws at his enemies.  He doesn't stay with the Society long at all.

 PUFF ADDER -- One of the new Serpent Society members, Puff Adder can puff himself up in size and mass, which gives him more strength.  He's not at all intelligent, and Anaconda likes to toy with him.

 ROCK PYTHON -- One of the new Serpent Society members, Rock Python uses little eggs which have different effects, such as poisonous gas.  He usually works with Puff Adder, and is sort of the brains behind the duo.

 BLACK RACER -- One of the new Serpent Society members, Black Racer is a quiet woman who has super-speed.  Doesn't talk much...and that's about it.

 COPPERHEAD -- One of the new Serpent Society members, Copperhead has the power to discharge electrical bolts (kind of like Asp, but not as effective), and had armor that protected him from any electrical powers.

 FER-DE-LANCE -- One of the new Serpent Society members, Fer-De-Lance has sharp talons connected to her gloves that she uses to skewer her opponents.  She usually works with Bushmaster.

That's all of them.  =D
