Goals and Methods

The Elite were Japan's foremost team. Their members were not permitted to abandon Endbringer fights.<ref name="22.y"/> They were organized into multiple differing teams spread out among Japan.^{[citation needed]}

Each groups costumes were color-coded and stylized,<ref name="24.4c1">They were color coded, and also had stylized elements to their costumes. There was a giant robot, but it didn’t combine. Seiunsho’s latest version appeared earlier in this arc.- Comment by Wildbow on Crushed 24.4</ref> effectively identical without a color swap and organized into groups with matching body types.<ref name="PRT: Department 64">Basically, you want the opposite of that Sentai Elite thing. You know, five or six people of roughly the same height and body type, in matching costumes with a color swap.-PRT Quest thread i p23</ref> When deployed against Endbringers all Sentai present wore tinker-made armor with wrist-mounted laser guns and rifles at their hips.<ref name="22.y"/>

Members

• Lung encountered a Sentai member in a yellow and black costume, whose power was unable to hurt Leviathan.
• The Sentai had a member who could mass-produce tinker weapons, presumably Masamune.
• They had sixteen or seventeen people fighting in close to Leviathan, including one in a purple and green costume.<ref name="22.y"/>
• A tinker, Seiunsho, who created several giant robots for the organization,<ref name="24.4c1"/> his latest version was deployed with calamitous results at New Delhi.<ref name="24.2">Crushed 24.2</ref>
• They also had members capable of stopping Leviathan from advancing, parahumans whose strikes caused the ground to shake, and some capable of softening or deflecting his water echo.<ref name="22.y">Interlude 22.y</ref>
• It is unknown what relation, if any, Black Kaze had to the organization.

History

The Sentai were set up or quietly supported by Cauldron.<ref>Absent Cauldron's meddling, there's no PRT for one thing. There's no Suits, no Red Gauntlet, no Elite Sentai group or whatever I called them, no Elite; all groups that Cauldron set up or supported.- Wildbow on Spacebattles</ref>

On November 2nd, 1999 the Sentai Elite fought Leviathan alongside The Triumvirate, Protectorate, and Lung at Kyushu.<ref name="22.y"/> The sun would rise on the 3rd on the Sentai Elite's greatest defeat.<ref name="8.2">“Kyushu, the night of November second and the morning of the third, 1999. His sixth appearance. Nine and a half million killed when the region was swamped with tidal waves from every direction while Leviathan disrupted prearranged evacuation attempts. Nearly three million evacuees rendered homeless, a nation sundered. -Excerpt from Extermination 8.2</ref>

Several former members would emigrate to the US and set themselves up as villains.<ref>Oakland RP</ref>
