The Corsairs

The National Emergency Strike Team (NEST) was formed by Presidential order just after the Hero Wars. A government-sponsored super team, its members are all federal agents with full law enforcement powers.

The formal team name is rarely used, and they are usually known as the Corsairs.

The team currently consists of the following members:

Enforcer (Miles Carson) is a reformed supervillain whose superhero career has been much more successful. Even with his checkered past, he was considered an ideal candidate for the leadership of the team because of his military experience and government connections.

Sunstrike (Kendall McGee) A half-human, half-alien crossbreed whose powers manifested themselves when she was attacked as a teenager. She can generate and channel light energy, including a powerful laser beam.

The Wrath (Sarah Laine) A powerful telepath and clairvoyant with the ability to hunt down other psychics and drain their mental abilities. She was originally trained in an army program designed to develop a psychic weapon.

Banzai (Martin Swoop) A swashbuckling martial artist with a reputation for unorthodox tactics. He was originally on the teenage superteam Supernova Squadron and was recruited for the Corsairs by Enforcer.

Magicker (Harold Piffle) has had sorcerous powers since birth, which have cause the nerdy young man no end of trouble. The newest addition to the team, Magicker met Banzai when both were members of Supernova Squadron.

The team is also backed up by the US government, and complete support includes NEST troops at NEST installations on the east and west coasts.
