In the heart of the world’s brightest cities, where heroes rise to defend the innocent, a darker force gathers in silence. This force is **Team LD** — the personal legion of **Lord Dominion**, the master manipulator and tycoon whose reach extends through wealth, weapons, and whispered promises of power.
Unlike common criminals, Dominion doesn’t recruit the weak. He preys upon the broken, the outcasts, the ambitious, and the betrayed. Each member of Team LD carries scars — physical, emotional, or both — that made them vulnerable to Dominion’s offers. Whether through false salvation, promises of vengeance, or the lure of chaos, he twisted their suffering into loyalty.
Team LD is not a random band of villains; it is a **calculated machine** of destruction. Each member has been handpicked for their abilities, their ruthlessness, and their usefulness to Dominion’s larger vision: a world under his control. Where the Vanguards fight for unity, Dominion’s team thrives on fear, greed, and power.
The core members are:
* **Lord Dominion**, the mastermind in white, who bankrolls the team and directs its every strike.
* **Gravitiser**, the broken scientist who bends gravity itself to Dominion’s will.
* **The Living Shard**, the mercenary turned monster, whose obsidian body makes him nearly indestructible.
* **Thornheart**, the betrayed gardener whose thorned rage poisons every city she touches.
Together, they are a storm — a perfect reflection of Dominion’s belief that heroes are fragile, but villains, when united under control, are unstoppable.
Team LD is more than a team; it is an empire in the making, each villain a weapon sharpened for Dominion’s conquest. Their battles leave cities scarred, their names whispered like curses, and their presence a constant shadow looming over the Vanguard’s fight for hope.
