That is great advice. I was regretting not giving a short name for the converted soldiers and I kept typing 'converted' over and over. I never wrote anything more complicated than Youtube comments so don't be shy with the criticism.
Before I write the bios of the queen and the main baddies I probably need to lay out some basic info on the heroes because they are personally connected to the heroes. Since they specialize in seduction and use combat more sparingly, the connection to the heroes makes them more deadly.
These rules are pretty generic if you know Power Rangers style shows.
Red Ranger is the leader. He is also brash and impulsive. His has courage in the face of impossible odds which often inspires the team. His need to save everyone sometimes puts the team in danger.
Blue Ranger is the calm and cool one. He is handsome, charming and extremely skilled. His cold calculating nature often causes arguments with Red when he suggests abandoning areas that are heavily infected with converted soldiers as lost cause and fighting everyone inside while Red stubbornly tries to save everyone who might not be converted.
Green Ranger is the nerdy science guy who is usually not popular with girls. He works often with the girl who runs the R&D at the hero base and comes up with all sorts of nifty gadgets for the heroes.
Yellow Ranger is the strong one who is also a little dumb. He often protects his teammates by taking the damage on his own body. He fights for a better world for his little sister who he is the guardian of after his parents were lost in a converted soldier attack.
So I'm thinking Red's unrequited love is a cheerleader at his school. She would be pursued by both Red and the school's sports star. He would blurt out secret Ranger info trying to explain why he appeared to be into her but would often not show up for dates. Turns out she was converted and was only pretending to be into the sports star to make Red jealous enough to do desperate thing to try to win her over.
The queen is attracted to Blue and wants him her sex toy. She wants to break him mentally instead of hypnotizing him though. The queen also want to create false hope for the heroes because the human life force is greatest the more they think they can win and overcome the crisis.
Green and the R&D lab girl are genuinely into each other but are too shy to admit it. When she get converted she tries desperately to suppress its power and not betray the Rangers which causes much confusion. When she can't hold back the magic any longer she becomes more powerful then any general the Rangers have ever faced. The R&D girl created a way of killing her while she was suppressing her power but it requires Green to get over how heartbroken he is to tell the group about it.
Yellow's mom shows up and has a heartwarming reunion. Turns out she was converted. The team saves her (this story is later when the team knows about the queen's mark). The mom had converted Yellow's sister before she was found out by the Rangers and Yellow is easily tricked.
Those 4 are probably the ones I'm going to write. I'm willing to take suggestions for other ones. I will ignore them if I'm not smart enough to know how to make it work though. Also, if you haven't noticed, I'm terrible with names. Throw out suggestion for names of converted soldiers, the queen, name of the Rangers group, generals, etc. I can't name anything.
