  • 1. Namor (Polynesian) – Racial Draft Season 5


    The reimagining of Namor as Polynesian is as follows:

    In this reimagining he is the mutant son of a Māori woman. His father is a warrior from Ngāti Tangaroa- The tribe of the God of the ocean, Tangaroa! This tribe lives on a sunken island kingdom somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. Here is a depiction of Tangaroa, god of the ocean. A Māori Namor could follow a similar aesthetic.

    Also this reimagined Namor would have mataora, or full facial tattoo, which would depict his genealogy, status, achievements and destiny.
    Here is an example:

    And for their fancast, the Polynesian delegation chooses Māori actor Antonio Te Maioha.

  • Bruce Wayne – Batman (Native American) – Racial Draft Season 5

    Samuel Wayne, the first Wayne to set foot in Gotham, took a Native boy named Bijoux from his tribe (Mohican) and kept him as a servant. Over the years, the boy observed from the background the ins and outs of the Wayne Shipping Corporation. By 20, he could run the company himself. And so he did. As Samuel got older, Bijoux began to work as his proxy, and the business had never been more successful. Soon they were branching out into other industries. By the time Samuel had died, Bijoux had successfully transferred the entire Wayne fortune to himself, changing his name to Bijoux Wayne for appearances. 

    Today, “Wayne” is the last name used by Bijoux’s descendants, descended from a line of protectors of this land older than Gotham itself. And the Wayne name, in its own way, represents the last of the Mohicans, as the common term has been applied. Bijoux was Thomas Wayne’s great grandfather and Bruce Wayne’s great great grandfather. 

    This new origin for the Wayne family lineage allows for Bruce to be Native American, but not affect his family’s wealth or privilege, nor his parents’ eventual deaths.
