Some 40 miles north of New Detroit is a small vintage observatory near the Town of Romeo.
Though located far from any towns the localized light pollution makes using the still-functional telescope more difficult then it was when first built. It is built on a hill in a wooded area. It has a wide lawn edged in a high fence set with ornamental Gargoyle statures. More gargoyles have been placed as waterspouts on the building roof. There is a small garden shed and a smaller woodshed on the property as well as an add-on car garage.
Inside the building has been refurbished into a cozy [if eccentric] house, as well as a secure medical area and researching laboratory. Access to the scientific parts of the building is quite understandably, heavily restricted.
The gargolyes contain hidden weapons that can be set from stun to vaporize, depending on the need. A small advanced shield generator to cover the building is located within the main building.
It is considered, perhaps unsurprisingly, by some people to be a Villain Lair.

The two men who for several years maintained a bachelors household there are geneticists by birth and trade. Both are clones who escaped their Originals. Brothers in all but blood they work well together and are employed by the Center for Disease Control. they take on difficult cases such as Artificially-induced mutations, Techno-Organic viruses and alien parasite removal.

They share fatherhood of their son, Daedalus. He was brought to them by the clone Raphelle as the remains of a temporary clone of a supervillain. As creating such disposable clones is highly illegal where Icarus' original is from, it was decided to make a new version with none of the alien memories, that could grow and live like a regular child.

Doctor Jakob "Ithikos" Stroessen II.
He is an Escaped Teleio-clone, robust, standing well over six foot, blonde and handsome with clear grey eyes.
After some problems with Daedalus' first few months at school, Ithikos was hired on as the Biology Department head. He is known for an innovative teaching style. His office features multiple computer screens and holographic simulations of current projects in the Labs. He created Consuelo a small mobile device that projects scenes from early childhood readers as she is quite enamored of the hard light constructs.

The Raptors
Genetically modified Teleio-Raptors. There are five, they work as Lab Assistants at the Observatory, and several help in the Bio-Department of the East Briar Institute. Copernicus wears spectacles. Whether he needs them or simply enjoys wearing them is unknown. The Raptors have a small building on the EBI grounds near the Mastodon Enclosure to stay in while working.

ObsIcarusheader1.png
Doctor Icarus Vikomir
He is the clone of an alien geneticist who gave this body prototype alchemical superpowers. He has the ability to fly, move many times faster then normal and transmute parts of his body into other elements. While originally pale, he adjusted his own DNA to look more human-like. The end result is tanned skin and black-brown hair. His slightly pointed ears could not be changed and so he often wears a hat in public.
His original, Arganov, believes him deceased. Several years ago after superheros attacked one of Arganov's bases Icarus was left for dead. He was discovered by ithikos and healed and the two have been great friends ever since. While he shares his original's memories of centuries of scientific research he has a justifiable fear he may be consumed by the darker aspects of them when angry or under high stress. Partially because of this, Icarus prefers astronomy over the other sciences.
Icarus met the clone Snookums when she came to the Observatory for help with badly programed nanites. Once she was repaired, he hired her for a research assistant. They were married in July 2017. They have a daughter, Consuelo, born in 2018. Since her birth Icarus has gotten a little more casual with things and spends less time in the labs then he had before. Recently Icarus has celebrated the birth of another child, a son, Makarios! Born on September 12th, 2019, at a whopping twelve pounds!

Arganov
An albino alien geneticist, long ago driven mad and now working for a space-faring warlord. He is known for creating supersoldiers, Bio-monsters and abominations, both for pay and simply out of curiosity, in the name of Knowledge.
Icarus was an experimental clone of this man with prototype superpowers.

Daedalus
A young amalgam clone of the supervillain "Warblade" and an unspecified donor. He is approx. 10 years old, with black eyes, black curly hair, a dark grey skin and leaf-shaped ears. The Snookii call him "Puddles II".
When he uses his powers a faint blue glow often appears. He can fly, has some amount of Kineticism and is quite intelligent. Daedalus attends East Briar Institute. Last year he won the school science fair with self-weaving silkworms.
He is a little sweet on the catgirl, Fleabelly. His best friend is Jake.

Consuelo
Consuelo Maria Vikomir. Born January 29 2018 at 7.34pm. She is the child of Icarus and Snookums and is paler then both, seeming to take after Icarus' genetics. At three months she managed to telepathicly identify both parents, at four months, she can tentatively communicate with other psionic individuals, Primus agents Oliver and Bai ["Oloo" and "Baa"] when they came to visit the family.

Makarios
Makarios Vikomir. Born September 12 2019 at 4.27am. He seems a little darker coloured then his older sister Consuelo, and as yet doesn't do much other then snuggle and sleep. He wakes Consuelo up, and makes her grumpy.
