Teetering between the title of gang and team, The Scavengers are much as their title insists. They are oppurtunists, thieves, robbers, muggers and thugs, justifying their crimes on the world with the crimes done against them or the shame of their mutation. While a number of mutant genes grant abilities that make them insociable, physically handicapped or mutated, or dangerous, the Empire City's 'Super Center' offers training, medication, therapy, or whatever is needed to contain or control these. They frequently refuse any such offers, known to have minor acts of selflessness when properly moved. They do all they can to remain on relatively low key profiles, avoiding entering the bigger scale of superheroes and villains as they are out for wealth and possessions, not power or danger.
