Hello? Aren’t you you forgetting someone? As in, Jessica Fletcher?

And in case you don’t think she’s bra-and-panties pillow-fight worthy, I present this: [Loose Leaf Tigers: all the king's women # 12 - angela lansbury](http://looseleaftigers.blogspot.com/2009/10/all-kings-women-12-angela-lansbury.html)

I think **Maj. Motoko Kusanagi** could double or triple duty nicely…actually, strictly speaking, I think she could easily pull decituple duty, going by the team requirements of your list.

[Exhibit 1](http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xa952j_ghost-in-the-shell-sac-1st-gig-epis_shortfilms) (3:20+ is a particular highlight).

With the Major, if you chose the other team members well—I’m thinking a good sorceress, and a good Mad Scientist for the medical/science angle—you could probably fill out your team with a minimum of _three_ members.

So maybe **Raven** for the thaumaturgy…and for the Mad Scientist, maybe— **Agatha Heterodyne**?

Actually, if you REALLY want to stretch it, Agatha might be able to do the science [AND magic](http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20081205). :eek:
