one of the players in a campaign i GMed (which never got going well,
unfortunately) was a rabid metahuman rights activist. the mere sight
of a humanis policlubber would get him into a seething rage, usually
followed immediately thereafter by some sort of conflict. made things
interesting, at least. if he had kept that i up (and i have little
doubt that he would have) i would have had to prepare a small supply
of typical humanis members for use as cannon fodder...

in real life this guy is a vocal gay rights activist. no connection,
i'm sure. :)

When Elvis Presley died in 1977, there were 37 Elvis impersonators in the
world. Today there are 48,000. If the current trend continues, by the year
2010, one of every three people in the world will be an Elvis impersonator.
