"They were the nobodies of the super community; freaks and outcasts, working far from the eyes of the official authorities of Millennium City. Alone, they wandered the streets, many frightened and hunted or feared and despised. One man would bring them together. Together, they could make all the difference." - The Conclave #1

Coordinator
Founder; admitted January 10, 2013; Tales of Mystery #140, "The Conclave"
A defrocked mystical master doing penance by bringing aid and comfort to the "lower end" of the super-community; the "freaks", the outcasts, those with powers thrust unwilling on them. As Coordinator of the Conclave, he oversees, and often initiates, all operations and security in the Sanctum that is used as a loose headquarters.

"Adam Arcane"
Field Leader
Founder; admitted January 10, 2013; Tales of Mystery #140, "The Conclave"
Orphaned in the fires of Dr. Destroyer's attack on Detroit, the Morrigan spent her life training for revenge against him and his kind, using a hi-tech suit and her connections to her secretly owned information brokerage, FactQuest. Has since retired as active Field Leader to follow her own pursuits, but is still available at dire need.

Inspirations and Creator's Notes
I always loved the Defenders concept of a "non-team", just a loose confederation of heroes hanging out at Dr. Strange's Sanctum and throwing together when necessary. No meetings or line-ups, you never knew who might show up.
The original members have a vague (but intentional) resemblance to the Five Man Band trope, with Adam Arcane as The Leader, The Morrigan as the Lancer, Neon as The Smart Guy, Monster as The Big Guy, High Wire as The Chick and rounding off with Professor Kilimanjaro as The Mentor and Ballistic as The Sixth Ranger.
