Non Hero Summons
Non Hero Summons

Considering that Doug's subcontious is the thing creating his simulacrums, why hasn't anyone suggested villain summoning songs? Any villain he has encountered more than once that isn't generic gunman #27 is going to leave an impression on him.
For instance, "Young, Dumb, and Ugly", by Weird Al is a song for summoning a pack of thugs. Summoning a random assortment of thugs, both memorable individuals and generic type casts. Basically, summons a pack of Crunchy minions and lets him test a more powerful opponent. Though after the Slayers step it may include a utterly random assortment of idiot bandits. In game terms you role dice to see which random idiots make up this pack of thugs... For example a punk in a school uniform, 3 medieval bandits, two generic cyberpunks, and 7 bikers. Nothing major just fodder that calls him Bossman. The smell would make them not for polite company though,
The more advanced type would be ones to summon particular opponents, much like he can summon teammates. A song about his own worst enemy may summon a Quincy drone. Metallica's 'Master of Puppets' may summon the guy who made the Servitor Virus... making this one of his least favorite songs. Something about a feral beast with crushing power would summon a Doberman boomer.
The real problem with these summons are that you'd have to be careful with the,... they'll act like Doug's mental image of the villain. Any with self preservation won't try to kill Doug... though they may do bad things to annoy him.
On the other hand, summoning people you don't like and using them to set off traps is rather cathartic.
