A solo cape who decided the rules were wrong and quit waiting for permission. Full-tier powers, a real grievance, and zero patience left. This one isn't the Sympathetic Villain — he was on a team once, walked off it, and is now running operations the City Veteran is scrambling to clean up before the press catches wind.
Signature moves: confront a teammate alone, lecture straight through an attack, drop a witness the team needed negotiating with, plant evidence to discredit COMPASS.
Defeated by: the team finding the line the Rogue actually drew, then either proving they crossed it or proving they didn't.
Appearance: A once-pristine hero costume stripped of insignia and re-dyed toward a harder, colder palette; sharp posture, a cold and purposeful stare.
