I actually had a Telepathic, shape-changing, Hermaphrodite assassin called Ecstasy. I used "her" in a couple of M&M games. Lets just say it made for some interesting situations. 😀
I had a character called the Engima, a NPC. It was a female cop that would transform into a male superhero. She had power activation and no one could figure out her idendity.
Ecstasy was an Psychic Vampire, with telepathy, and a limited shape changing ability. "She" could use her abilities to determine someone's greatest sexual desire, and use it to get close to them. She'd then absorb there their psychic energies. She'd literally love you to death.
I'll start posting info on the Brotherhood of Evil over the next few days. I'm still tinkering with their final stats, and trying to find some decent artwork to go along with the write-ups. First up should be The Brain.

Legal Status: French citizen, with an extensive criminal record.
Knowledge Areas: Sciences and Medicine.
Origin/Background: As a scientist, the man who would one day become known as the Brain experimented on animals to raise their intelligence. One of his experiments was on a gorilla he captured and experimented on, raising its I.Q. to the genius-level of 178. He named the gorilla Monsieur Mallah and educated him for almost a decade before making him his personal assistant.
His colleague, Niles Caulder grew jealous of his work and arranged for the scientist to get caught in an explosion, which destroyed the scientist's body. Only the brain survived, and Caulder planned on putting his brain in a robot body. Mallah rescued the scientist, taking his brain and transferring it to a computer network that kept it functioning. Now known simply as the Brain, the scientist and Mallah gathered together the criminal organization known as the Brotherhood of Evil in hopes of conquering the world and getting revenge on Caulder.
Combat Tactics/M.O.: The Brain stays out of direct combat, orchestrating events from behind the scenes, the few times he's been forced into combat, he's had an escape plan to rapidly extract himself from the situation.?
Personality/Character Traits: A cold calculating sociopath with no empathy for the victims of his experiments.
Note: Over the years, the Brain has constructed/invented a wide variety of weapons and defense systems to include Lasers, Power Blasters, Force Fields, Electrification Fields, Stun Beams (Paralysis Ray), Power Dampers, and more. GM s should use their imagination and get creative.
Wouldn't the Brain have the weakness Physical handicaped; no body. This leads to no movement rate, no carrying and no HTH?

I thought about that, and also thought about giving him Robotic Body (with life support as it's special ability). I may make some modifications to him later.
And would Monsieur Mallah be The Brain's Pet?

Nope, I made him a completely separate character, and he's up next. Just as soon as I get finished with my revised Brain write-up.
Nice Brain!
Thanks for posting it.
Taking John's suggestions, I've posted a revised version of The Brain.

Origin/Background: Vril Dox was once a scientist on the planet Colu. Because of his genius, Dox was allowed to serve the planet's computerized tyrants. Attempting to overthrow the tyrants and rule Colu himself, Dox had invented a teleporter. Discovering his plan, the tyrants used the teleporter on Dox, apparently killing him. Dox's mind survived and traveled thousands of light years to earth. Using his vast telepathic and psychokinetic powers, Dox possessed the body of a sideshow mentalist called the Amazing Brainiac (Milton Fine) to become the power hungry villain known as Brainiac. Only Superman has stood in the way of Brainiac?s many ingenious schemes.
Combat Tactics/M.O.:
Personality/Character Traits: Cold, mechanical, and machine like, Brainiac seeks to conquer the Earth and destroy Superman. His eventual goal is the assimilation of all knowledge. His obsession with knowledge has led him to shrink down many cities to bottle size for transportation on his Skull Ship, including Kandor on Krypton.

When he was hired by the alien villain Byth to steal the spacecraft of Hawkman and Hawkwoman, he was provided with a Thanagarian shadow field generator, which could transform him into a shadow-like, intangible, two-dimensional wraith.

Sands? long-term exposure to the energies of the Dimensiometer has affected his mind and weakened his grasp on reality, to the extent that he sometimes engages in long conversations with the inanimate Dimensiometer itself.
