== Overview ==
{{TOCright}}
The '''Freedom Phalanx''' is a signature hero group led by [[Statesman]].  

== History ==
[[File:Emblem_V_Freedom_Phalanx_01.png|left]]
The Freedom Phalanx was founded on July 4, 1932. The founding members included (in order of their appearances in [[Paragon City]]) Statesman, [[The Dark Watcher (Primal Earth)|The Dark Watcher]], [[Elementar]], the team known as [[Vambrace]] and [[Maiden Justice]]. The name was suggested by James St. John-Smythe (the tech and wheel-chair bound member of the two man team Vambrace) and was quickly ratified by the others.

The group faced its first official combat on the date of Monday, July 11, 1932. This date is otherwise known as "[[Brass Monday]]".

In the 1930s, the Statesman became one of the first established heroes in Paragon City. Inspired by his example, other heroes soon emerged as well, including the Dark Watcher, the [[Dream Doctor]], and Maiden Justice.  Although each individual hero made some headway against Paragon City's criminal element, they also faced increasingly more dangerous and organized villains. The Statesman soon recognized the need to rally the other heroes into a coordinated fighting force. 

In the spring of 1931, the Statesman gathered Paragon City's other heroes in his downtown apartment. There he issued his fellow heroes a challenge: to make a difference, not only on the streets and in the city, but also around the world. Thus was formed the first worldwide hero organization; dedicated to fighting evil, injustice and tyranny wherever they might hide.

The Statesman, inspired by the shoulder-to-shoulder discipline showed by ancient Greek soldiers in the face of Persian tyranny, called his new team of heroes the Freedom Phalanx.  Throughout the 1930's the Phalanx fought the good fight and cleaned up Paragon City. The city council and mayoral elections of 1936 swept a platform of pro-hero candidates that resulted in the passage of the [[Citizen Crime Fighting Act]] of 1937.  This law made it legal for vigilantes to bring criminals to justice as long as they followed the same restrictions police officers used.  Thus in the space of just five years, the Freedom Phalanx went from an ad hoc band of would-be heroes to a legally recognized, nationally praised crime fighting organization.

Despite any public or political pressure, the Freedom Phalanx continues to battle any threat to humankind and remains "the world’s premiere independent hero organization." They still make it a firm policy to have no official ties to any government or law enforcement institution.  They are one of the most open organizations in existence, allowing any would-be hero to volunteer for service with the esteemed group.  Unlike other groups, the Freedom Phalanx is entirely open about everything, from its membership to its funding and current activities.  This frankness carries through on down to the lowest levels, where even beginning heroes must reveal their true identities and pasts to the organization and the world.  Statesman takes great pride in these "sunshine policies", saying they go a long way towards inspiring confidence in the Freedom Phalanx’s personnel and motives.{{fact}}

''Main Article:'' [[Back Alley Brawler]]

One of the most veteran heroes in Paragon City, the Brawler is in semi-retirement, training the next generation of heroes. Though he rarely goes into the field these days, his power and fighting skills are still as potent as ever.

'''NOTE:''' Despite being a member of the [[Surviving Eight]], Back Alley Brawler is not actually a member of the Freedom Phalanx, according to lore. However, due to [[developer]] mishandling, he often shows up in content that generalizes the heroes as "members of the Freedom Phalanx". Back Alley Brawler is actually the founding member of the [[Regulators]].

Citadel was the first android hero. In the initial [[Rikti]] onslaught, he took heavy damage and was

Citadel does not fully understand human ways, but he is a valiant defender of [[Paragon City]]. He has recently undergone a major upgrade to his systems.

Dr. Raymond Keyes developed a high-tech battle suit that allowed him to channel bolts of anti-matter into fierce attacks. He used his powers to help defeat the [[Rikti]], but at a terrible cost: Injuries he sustained at that time caused him to lose full control of his powers. Now, to protect others from himself, he remains imprisoned within his battle suit. He is constantly searching for a cure for his condition, but that does not stop him from contributing to the defense of Paragon City and contributing many other technological breakthroughs for the good of all.

''Main Article:'' [[Sister Psyche]]

Even in her childhood, it was obvious that Sister Psyche was blessed. The tremendous scope of her mental powers was far beyond that of any hero, past or present. When the [[Rikti War|Rikti war]] descended, Sister Psyche knew she had to make her gift count. She did, but at a price. She exhausted her powers so thoroughly that she fell into a coma. A young heroine named [[Aurora Borealis]] offered to play host to Sister Psyche´s projected mental self. Of course, this situation could not last forever. Now back in her own body, Sister Psyche has dedicated herself to shape the tremendous gifts of the young Aurora. It's a responsibility she takes seriously, as well as a consolation for the loss of her former protege, [[Malaise]]. When the psychic link between the two women was first disrupted, Sister Psyche lost her mental control over Malaise's dual personalities. The evil Malaise reasserted himself, and quickly made his departure. His present whereabouts are as yet unknown.

''Main Article:'' [[Synapse]]

Steven Berry was just an average man, until Crey Industries got hold of him. The Crey scientists were testing a number of radical procedures for inducing super powers. Steven was blasted with high doses of electricity for days. It amplified the electrical energy in his body, giving him the ability to harness it into super speed and electrical blasts. Synapse escaped Crey's clutches by shorting out the lab where he was kept prisoner. To this day, Crey executives deny any knowledge of the project in which Synapse was an unwilling participant.
