Outcasts
Overview
The Outcast are an enemy group in City of Heroes.
History
The Outcasts are a group of mutants who consider themselves heroes, they are anything but. They recruit young mutants into their gang, and buy magical artifacts from the Warriors. Their leader, Leonard Calhoun a.k.a. Forstfire was once a low level hero, who turned when he decided it would be more profitable to take rather than defend. Sence he started the gang, it has grown to be a powerful force in East Gate (also known as 'The Hollows') and stronger groups roam Boomtown and Steel Canyon.
