[UA] You are... Number Six.

[STUART ANDERSON]

I like The Village as some kind of attempt to reverse-engineer the Stotosphere.  Did anyone ever see a number larger than 332?

Hm.  I thought perhaps the Rebel, but that's not quite right.

The Resistance would be more apt; might be the same as the Rebel, but
there's been a contextual shift in the post modern age.  No longer do
we rebel for, we rebel against?

Actually, that fits kind of well, if you look at the Village as a
gambit in the Archetype's battle against an ambitious Godwalker.
