Wherever you are, get your sunglasses and shades ready! Because here in the USA, we’re going to witness a very rare and a once-in-a-lifetime total solar eclipse! And in the Year of the Dragon!
So, I've just recently learned that this Year of the Dragon will be the focus of the "Wood Dragon!" Not to mention Keanu Reeve's year. Yeah! Amazing! Keanu Reeve's a dragon too!
But I've recently learned that while the Year of the Dragon cycle happens every 12 years, a particular element is observed every 60 years!
A/N: This isn't his natural hair color in the story. But it's all we could find of Hum Drum as a human.
Info Full name: Kenbroath Gilspotten Heathspike the Fourth Age:14 Place of Birth: Maretropolis, Washington Occupation: Student Aliases: "Spike", Rookie, Squirt, Maretropolis's Robin Favorite movie(s): Most of the MCU films, Batman (1989), The Sam Raimi Spiderman Trilogy Favorite Show(s): DCAU, My Hero Academia, Darkwing Duck, Kamen Rider, Teen Titans Favorite Video Games: Batman Arkham series, Spiderman PS4, Spiderman Miles Morales PS5 VA: Cathey Weseluck
Bio Before, Ken was just your typical run-of-the-mill kind of boy who enjoys nothing more than to play video games, read superhero comics of DC and Marvels, and hang out with his best friend, Thor. That all changed, however, when he started housing SIX (later seven) alien girls who were escaping from their greatest enemies from space.
Now he's become their apprentice, and their official earthling guide.
Powers and Abilities While not as strong, or as fast as the Power Princesses, Ken makes up with his adaptability to come up with brand new strategies in seemingly tight situations.
Weakness Ken has a bad habit of making rash decisions in an attempt to prove himself to his peers from time to time which in turns lands him into hot water fifty percent of the time.
Since he doesn't have super powers of his own, he usually has a tough time when squaring off against someone who does. Especially if there's more than one. Update: His skill with the bo staff needs work. Last time, he gave Dallas a big bump on the head.
Lastly, his wisecracks and comebacks needs a lot of work. Update: They're getting there...

Bio Ken's faithful canine companion. She was just your average kind of dog, before she was exposed to one of the Power Princess's gadgets that gave her the power to speak. When she isn't helping Ken and the girls defending the city, would be busy foiling the ridiculous schemes of Dr. Hoofensmirtz.
Powers and Abilities She's very talkative, is very witty on her feet and has a sense of humor.

Bio Prior to the destruction of her home planet, Mask Matter Horn was the apprentice of her late Queen Celestia, and the leader of the Harmonus Defenders. Unfortunately, after the evil warlord Sombra attacked and destroyed their homeworld, leading their queen to make a selfless sacrifice that destroyed the majority of Sombra's fleet, allowing Mask Matter Horn to escape with her teammates, she wasn't much of a leader anymore. Out of all the Power Princesses, Trots Summer is the most heartbroken of Celestia's passing. Only time will tell if she can recover and move on from her queen's death.
Powers and Abilities She has the ability to create a variety of energy beams, from ice, fires, to electrical currents, courtesy of an energy horn she projects from her mentality. She also has enhanced intelligence, with a soaring IQ of 900. She is also very linguistic, and can easily understand a variety of human foreign languages.
She also has a hidden ability of telekinesis, but it's a heavy drain for her mentality.
Weakness Since the destruction of her planet, the decimation of her people, and the death of her queen, Masked Matter Horn began to doubt herself and questions her ability to lead. Sometimes, she would overanalyze certain things, especially in dire situations, which would take too long at times.

Bio Before arriving on Earth, Zapp was one of Harmonus's most skilled swordswomen, second only to the royal sisters, and was captain of the royal guards, before Sombra attacked. Now she works alongside her teammates, the Power Princesses, to help protect Maretropolis, fight crime, and stop the bad guys.
Update: She was once a princess of a distant kingdom on Harmonus. However, she grew tired of the royal and luxurious lifestyle, and took the sword, Thunderer, to prove herself as a warrior. Unfortunately, this rubbed her people the wrong way, who labeled her as an outcast.
Powers and Abilities She carries with her a sword that allows her to control electricity and to manipulate the weathers. She can even use this electrical energy to go fast, and even "surfs" on lightning bolts to fly.
Weakness Zapp is extremely brash, always the first to bring out her sword and the last to put it away. She also can get extremely competitive which gets in the way of the mission.
She also needs be near somewhere with lots electricity to recharge her lightening powers and will be in big trouble if she isn't.

Bio Back on Harmonus, Radiance was respected and revered for her immeasurable beauty, which carries over to Earth's standard of beauty. Even her secret identity, as Green Gardner, could do very little to hide away her good looks. Even Ken couldn't help but be most infatuated with her, 24/7.
Update: Before she became a Harmonus Defender, Radiance was a fashionista on Harmonus, when she saw a wounded alien hero crash land close by. Despite her care to nurse him back to health, the alien superhero died. But not before he entrusted Radiance with the source of his powers for good. The power bracelets.
Powers and Abilities Can instantly construct energy objects with her thoughts, courtesy of the jeweled bracelets around her wrists. Otherwise, she displays her fighting style with grace and enhanced reflexes like those of a dancer.
Weakness Radiance is very vain and doesn't like getting dirty. This would cause problems during battle at times. Also for whatever reason, her powers don't seem to work on the color grey.

Bio Before Harmonus was destroyed, Filli-Second loves nothing more than to spread cheers and smiles on the faces of her planet, as the royal court jester. Now, as Marey Allen, she works as the Bucking Bronco's part time cook and delivery girl, and enjoys hosting birthday parties for all the little boys and girls of the city.
But when she's fighting the bad guys, there's nothing she likes more than to give the villains a hard time with her usual kooky antics, her pranks, and over-the-top panache.
Update: She was also a part-time detective on Harmonus.
Powers and Abilities She has a high metabolism, even by Harmonian standards. Has a big appetite with a bottomless stomach. Can run faster than a speeding light, even faster for the naked eye. But not for long...
When she's not a party animal, Filli-second is surprisingly a very skilled detective.
Update: She's also a very big science enthusiast. Mainly DIY variety.
Weakness Filli-second sometimes doesn't take a mission very seriously much to the ire of her teammates, especially Masked Matter Horn, and at times thinks with her stomach.

Bio Before the destruction of Harmonus, Mistress Marevulous was hailed from the hidden city, Alfalfis, where Harmonians like her posses super strength.
Update: Like Zapp, she was also a princess. But she left Alfalfis, because she believed that her super strength should be used to help make the world a better place, instead of being hidden away.
Powers and Abilities She posses superhuman strength and carries with her a lasso that she can control both physically and mentally.
Weakness Marevulous is stubborn to the bone, and it takes a lot to try and change her mind. She's also bad at lying, making her a poor choice for covert missions.

Bio Once before, Spruce Spanner was Harmonus's leading scientist who was on the breakthrough of an experiment that can enhance medication throughout the entire galaxy. Unfortunately, she had an accident where she was exposed to the resulting radiation that gave her a powerful, but uncontrollable enhance superstrength that is triggered by rage, causing her to become – as Ken puts it – Hulk's doppelgänger, Saddle Rager.
Powers and Abilities When she gets angry, she turns into a rampaging monster, with superhuman strength and is nearly impervious to anything. Resistant to extreme temperatures, shock, and explosive damage. Despite being on the same side, Saddle Rager has been known to accidentally hurt her own teammates from time to time.
Other times, when she's not a rampaging she-beast, she's the team's medic. She's also a really good animal whisperer.
Weakness Spruce hates violence and is scared of using her fearsome power, and for a very good reason as she has yet to control it.
This is the closest we'll get to a mermaid of Coralita's description, until I'm able to design a legit image of her.

Powers and Abilities
