Summoner's Choice 2024 - Before You Vote - Ruby Thursday

Just like last time, I'm going to be going over story, powerset, and possible abilities we could see in the contest. This time I'll be talking about Ruby Thursday, a character who has appeared in the GOTG video game, and that's about it for non-comic media.

Ruby Thursday was a scientist who grafted an organic computer to her head made of malleable plastic that can shapeshift at her will (that's what the big pink ball is). She was first introduced as a member of the Headmen, where her plan was to give everyone a plastic head like hers, until the Defenders captured the rest of the Headmen. Oh, and her real name is Thursday Rubinstein (I'm not kidding).

She then ran for President of the United States, as the leader of the "Global Head" party in order to further her master plan of giving everyone a new head (Her slogan was literally "New heads for old"). Unfortunately this did not work out due to her being tricked into revealing her pink computer head at a campaign rally, and she was defeated by the Hulk and the Defenders.

She also created a creature named Dibbuk (who I think is made out of the same head-plastic), who is a pink demon creature. They attacked and killed a superhero by the name of Omega in order to experiment on his body, before Hellcat, Valkyrie, and the Wasp intervened and broke her head open (the plastic one). Dibbuk grabbed her and escaped to safety.

She did a lot of other things, but it was mostly just attacking superheroes and getting thrown in prison, so nothing crazy noteworthy.
TLDR: She has a shapeshifting computer head and wants everyone to have one.

Powerset: Ruby Thursday's computer head can shift into anything at will, whether that's arms, weapons, energy blasts, or even heal parts of herself. She can even control it when it is not attached to her, at any range. She is also a tech genius and engineering master.

Possible MCOC Abilities: A plasma debuff, maybe a form of infection similar to Warlock, bleeds, possibly different modes or forms similar to Psycho-Man.

She will definitely be a tech champion if I had to guess. She doesn't have a lot of crazy abilities, but the shapeshifting tech allows for a lot of creativity in her kit from Kabam, so she would definitely be a fun addition. I'll attach a picture of her below, and if I got anything wrong feel free to correct me! Let me know if you guys want to see any specific ones next, I'm working on all of these at the same time.

    Update for everyone: My brain is still autocorrecting it to Ruby Tuesday. I hope this will stop soon

    Still the only choice that lets us sprout arms out of our floating detached head and punch stuff.

    Oh I agree the animations would be absolutely insane

    I said it before I'll say it again, her animations would be by far the best (out of that list) and having her in the game could finally allow them to add Mystique to the game since shapeshifting would have to be in Ruby's kit to some extent.
    As for the infection idea I think that would be awesome!

    I truly hope she's the runner up, she was in second place in the poll made here in the forums but in other polls she wasn't even third so we'll see, she's definitely getting all my votes no matter what.

    I hope she’s second place too, I would really like to see her at some point. There’s no way she’s winning unfortunately.
