#I have changed everyone’s characterizations quite a bit to be more IC except for Hyde’s

[strangestcase]

So! Someone (the wonderful @twinklingaeviternity) kindly asked me about my silly LXG AU, which btw is set within my public domain crossover universe (Candyverse), and here it is. The plot is underbaked and the main cast has underwent changes, but:

Basically the story is set in the 1880s/1890s. A mysterious man called M sends his followers to recruit what he cryptically calls “Extraordinary People” with the goal of forming a team that will stop a sinister conspiracy designed to set off a world war before the new Century begins.

They are seven:

The Socialite. An American opera singer that -if the rumors are true- outwitted the world’s most brilliant detective. She has money, connections, and, of course, a bunch of aces up her sleeve.

The Hunter. Once a simple schoolteacher, a run-in with the Prince of Darkness turned her into his successor. As resourceful as she is brave and loving, she slays vampires and other ghouls.

The Inventor. What do you do when your noble family is ruthlessly massacred by the British? You turn to bloody revenge, of course, in the form of a deadly mechanical marvel of war. The Madman. A powerful drug of their own creation turned them from virtuous man of science to heartless monster, unleashing the darkness of their sick mind onto the streets.

The Terrorist. When he turned himself invisible, this mad genius had grand plans for world domination in his head. Now that he’s gained countless enemies, they are but a fading dream.

The Apprentice. Fleeing an arranged marriage, she is looking for a place where she belongs. But the elusive magical world she fell into as a child made her glow with a special kind of madness.

The Model. He is perfect, pure, untouched, beautiful- on the outside. Few people know that the reason behind his eternal beauty and youth is a dark wish that might as well be a curse…

Together they make a very weird gay polycule, I mean, the League of Extraordinary Gentlepeople!

As the story unfolds and they chase after various villains all over the world, they come to realize they were all red herrings and that M might not be who he claims to be… and on top of that one of them betrays the League! There’s action, adventure, horror, tragedy, comedy, and lots and lots of anachronisms! And the best part is: I don’t know how it ends!

(If you know who is who btw I give you a cookie. They’re all trans and I have various Identity and Pronouns Headcanons. That I won’t elaborate on here, but still.)
