History of Group: Formed in 1944 under the moniker of 'Doom Division', they were tasked with raiding outposts far into enemy territory. They gained infamy during the raid on Hiroshima where their leader, Manhattan-X, whose powers helped to create the Atomic Bombs, was overloaded by a member of the Axis Response Team. This caused him to enter critical mass and explode killing all but one of his enemies, though it killed his entire team along with himself. The division was recreated and rebranded with the name, 'Defenders' in the early 90's, though this also came with a lot of public outcry and distrust. Due to this, they were forced to move to a privately owned space station and are forced to operate from there.
