Editing Rogues (section)

==History==
===Background===
The term "rogue" dates back to the [[Golden Age of Parahumans|Golden Age]], when the expectation was that every parahuman would become a hero.<ref><em>The death of Vikare marked the end of the golden age, the end of an era where becoming a superhero was the expectation for anyone and everyone with powers, and even those who decided to work in business or public affairs with their abilities were termed ‘rogues'… - [[Interlude 20.x]]</em></ref><ref>It was a term that first would’ve come up when superheroes were fresh & being a superhero was assumed to be the norm for powered individuals, with anyone not being a superhero being seen in a negative light, but not so negative as to warrant the title ‘villain’.<br><br>In short, it predated the realization of the societal ramifications & dangers of large numbers of superpowered individuals duking it out on the streets. - [http://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/01/14/interlude-6/#comment-722 Comment] on [[Interlude 6]]</ref> With fewer safeguards in place, the line between exploiting new opportunities and white-collar crime was very thin.<ref>[https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/20696232 Wildbow on IRC]</ref>

[[Khepri]] captured countless rogues from across the multiverse to add to her army opposing [[Scion]], noting that there were a surprising number who had barely used their powers at all.<ref>Capes in hiding.  Rogues.  Deserters who had fled for safety in our hour of need.  A surprising number of capes who had no costume, and who had barely used their powers at all, judging by the way it felt when I reached for their abilities.  They were rogues who'd been subtle at best, or rogues who'd gone without powers altogether. - [ Excerpt] from [[Speck 30.4]]</ref>
