Personally, I'd love to see Victor and Xavin's dynamics with [REDACTED], since we've never gotten that in the comics. Especially considering both [REDACTED] and Victor are [REDACTED 2]'s love interests in the early parts of the series.

But I wouldn't mind getting Klara, too. Gimme some Rose Red! Took me a while who you meant by the REDACTEDs, but now that I get it, it would definitely be cool. Especially with the characteristics of one of them.

With Klara, at first I didn't think it would work introducing her into the show that we've gotten used to, since the core of her being that she's from a different time period. But then I remembered Victor Stein's obsession with time travel (albeit observing it rather than actual traveling), and the possible extension of that (either through Chase, or if Victor wakes up at some point from his coma and the life support system he's in). I could see Klara being adapted as a Kimmy Schmidt type of character but much darker; held underground for years, sexually abused, feared for her powers and fearing her own power, raised by an ignorant family and they could even make her Amish or part of some low-tech cult in order to "recreate" the out of time aspect. That's how I'd do it anyways.

As for Xavin? Since they're a prince and their thing is changing from male to female and back constantly, I'd just adapt them as a formerly rich shapeshifter who was disowned for being powered, confused for an Inhuman or actually being one. You miss out on the Super-Skrull powers, but I can't imagine them bothering to use those powers in the MCU anyways.

Victor is the only one I can't think of how to reimagine. Definitely keep the electric and magnetic powers, but I can't fathom how to keep the robot part. Ultron wasn't around long enough to create another body, considering he was focused entirely on Vision.

He could probably be an LMD, but it's been established that the LMD's can't replicate any super powers except super strength due to their metallic bodies. I also don't know how to do the Victorious angle. Definitely some sleeper agent status and activation code words like Bucky, but there's no point in having someone systematically kill off millions of powered individuals if there isn't millions of powered individuals in the MCU to kill.
