Seven students of Rutherford Junior College, alpha and beta class mutants, members of one of the last few remaining chapters of M.O.N.S.T.E.R., they call themselves "The M.O.N.S.T.E.R. B.R.A.T.s".

They are:

TD Tyrone Dewitt – At 13 he was 6'8", 380 lbs a size that most college coaches would have loved to have had on their starting line up, too bad he was only in the 7th grade. He played football for his school until the parents of the schools in the district signed a petition to have him removed from the team. And now at 17, he's 8'10" and 650lbs, and he's still growing…

Jinx Marion Freeman – A walking black cat, Marion used to cause trouble where ever he went whether it was a drink spilling onto some ones lap to the time a candle across the room fell into a trash can and started a fire in his old dorm. He came to the M.O.N.S.T.E.R. house hoping that they could help…

Trader Erin Gale – Erin first learned of her powers after her mother and her aunt had an argument, as she held their hands and asked them to try and see things from the others point of view a strange glow came from her hands. As the glow faded her mother asked what happened… from her aunt's body….

Ladybug Cheri Welch – When Cheri's mother first started to notice the lumps on her daughter's back, she took her to the doctor to see if he thought the lumps were cancerous. After a biopsy the doctor told the mother that the tests came back negative and suggested that she contact a friend of his one Dr. Henry McCoy. A few days later a pair of metallic carapace wings sprouted out of her shoulders…

Wy Max Hinton – An archer from the time he could hold a bow Max was at summer camp when his blossoming mutant signature awoke an inactive sentinel on the bottom of the camps lake. As the rusting old sentinel attacked Max on the archery field, he used his bow and arrows to defend himself. He emptied his quiver of arrows into the ancient robot and with his final shot he succeeded in hitting a vital spot and blowing the sentinel's head off. It was only afterwards that one of the onlookers told him that his last shot hadn't contained an arrow…

Amp Alan Webster – While every one thinks that Alan is the life of the party at any of the M.O.N.S.T.E.R. house bashes, what most don't realize is that this "wild-child" is actually just trying to fit in. A huge fan of classical music, Alan is a well respected pianist who is just kind of lonely…

Mana Joanna Kurtz – A former gene-goth Joanna followed the brats through a door with a built in F.O.H. mutant detector (low level cerebro-like device) which they have set up as a joke, every one was surprised by the fact that the alarm went off for Joanna, but no one more so than Joanna herself…
