Total Order Through Elimination of the Masses
TOTEM is not the biggest group, nor the strongest, not even the best funded.
Still, in their first publicized action they outmanuvered CHESS, Justice Force, and the Guardians.
They then smashed the joint Justice Force/Guardian team sent to defeat them.
Took genetic samples from the captured heroes.
Infiltrated clones into Justice Force, Chess, and the Guardians
Since then, however, TOTEM has absorbed a string of defeats. One of their leaders, the Purple Mask, was captured, exposed, and imprisoned. When the Guardians returned from the missing years, they helped Chess in raiding a TOTEM base. TOTEM seems to be quiet, biding its time. GM knows what they could be planning next... I would like to see the Purple Mask's character sheet
