  1. Well, It is NOIS, so it certainly ain't women....
  2. My BS/Regen Scrapper hit 50 today, my first. Thanks to everyone that helped out along the way
  3. But...but.. without CUppaJoe, who will we clone? Who will make us smile right before or after the devs club us in the groin with a nerf? FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHO WILL KEEP THE COMIC FORUMS FROM BECOMING UNLIVEABLE!

    After toying with the char creator, and discovering I can make pretty much, the perfect Auqaman send off, I must decide how to properly justify taking anything BUT Ss/Inv Brute.hmm...

    HMMMMM

    THAT WAS MY IDEA

    and yeah SS/Inv is all I've got, too. I think I will make a Dark/Dark Stalker as an analogue to the Shade, though. Bursting from the shadows and killin' fools, and all.

    I know, and then I discovered that you can create the perfect one. PErhaps I'll tweak things and be all "He's powered by the Sea, who's [censored] about people putting all their crap in it. But obnly the Arctic sea was willing to imbue him with powers, cause the other seas are sissies, so He'san Ice/Ice Cor..."

    So here's a serious question.

    Why doesn't the Brute who takes Mace Mastery get a SMASH power. You put a gigantic mace in my brute's hands...it just screams SMASH!!

    But the same can be said of Mako... I'ld much rather bludgeon folks to death with a shark carcass, then shoot spirit sharks.
  8. I think it's agreed. Mako truly is the BEST Patron of all times. I mean, COME ON! CHum Spray! Ghost Sharks! Coral People! AWESOME!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It's such a toss up. Scirrocco because I can justify it, and it's cool, Or Mako, because I'm starting to take Bork seriously as a character, and that needs to be ended

    I have the same problem—torn between Black Scorpion (and maybe Rocco) and OMG GHOST SHARKS.

    He's named Deathsterminator. Why do I take him seriously?!

    Doc Arctic is getting Scorpion, though, because a personal Toxic Tarantula will own.

    but dude

    GHOST SHARKS

    And corrosive, AE Puke

  12. Ok...It may have been mentioned, but did anyone, upon seeing the power "Summon Blaster" imediately picture tossing synapse? Anybody...?Just me?
  13. I think Arachnos would own. Know why? Ever had a mish where you get a Crab Spider Webmaster as a companion? THEY UNLEASH THE WRATH OF JEEEBUUSSS UPON ALL THEY SEE.

    Yep. I actually named my Brute "Suicidal Tendencies" mainly because every thing I saw about Brutes in beta tended to promote those tendencies in the archtype

    [/ QUOTE ]

    That's not quite right though. It's not that we WANT to die, it's just that when in the pursuit of SMASH! nothing else, not even one's personal safety matters. ALl that is important is that all important moment, when you realized you are truly one with the concept of SMASH!
  15. It must be said...

    I SMASH!, Therefore I Am
  16. I esd in the Isles last night... and having heard of Statesman's pplan, baked a pie for him, figuring he just wanted to sample the Rogue Isles's famous pie.... He beat my face in.... and then a man named Agent Buchner touched my bum... You all saw it!!

    An Unlikely Hero

    I wrote this just now, though the idea has been in my head for a while now. It's not set in the same universe or whatever as COH. However, I decided I'ld post it here, as it's super heroey and all. Reviews would be greatly appreciated, and feel free to be as brutally honest as you want, jut don't be a jerk about it. More will be added later, perhaps.

    So, without further intro... here I go. Oh, and as a warning, it's longish.


    These stories always begin with a retelling of the main character, the protagonist’s life, leading up to his big, flashy origin, right? Gives you a quick introduction to this man, this more than man, this being as far beyond human as you are beyond a chimp. And they always need some big, flashy origin, when they discover or acquire their powers, right? Nerd bitten by radioactive spider, man exposed to gamma radiation, instead of getting cancer he gets super, Rich boy’s parents murdered before him. They all have meaning, reason.

    Even the real heroes, these specters of the news, The Atom Smasher, The Crimson Automaton, Johnny Fission, these heroes torn straight from the comics of old, to protect modern day. They have big, eye catching, media friendly origin stories. Even the freaking Ice Lord, who was bitten by a damn radioactive ice cube has his own autobiography, his own fan club, his own interesting origin tale.

    I guess I’ll make one concession to tradition, and begin with where I came from. I grew up in a scummy part of Sico, New York. Most kids were sung lullabies to help them sleep, I listen to pimps slapping up their [censored], to junkies showing their frustration with the system by shooting up the place. My parents weren’t abusive so much as they just weren’t present. Sure, they were there, physically, but that doesn’t matter. Their minds weren’t their, not really.

    See, life is tough, some deal with it, some trip and fall under the pressure. My parents couldn’t stand the stress of raising a child, so they turned to drugs. Even when they were really there, they were too absorbed within themselves to pay much attention to me. It’s a sad state when a five year old has to cook his own dinner nightly.

    My name? To be honest, I don’t know what my real name is. People have been calling me Az since before I can remember. Never could be bothered to find out the real one.

    I grew up, when from a gangly, awkward, silent child to a gangly, awkward, silent teen. I skimmed by in school, didn’t do too well, didn’t do too bad. I was just a number, another small part of the federal education machine, being worked into a hopefully functional member of society.

    Enter Sara. The most beautiful women I had ever seen. She was just…amazing. The only person who ever really seemed to see me. I mean, sure people saw me, but they never acted as if I existed. She was different, she cared. It was love at first sight. She was my everything.

    Apparently love at first sight is what she felt when she first met Andre, one of our many local drug dealers. Like that, I was tossed away, left discarded and used up. I was unimportant now, all that mattered was Andre, and his magical pills.

    Cut to two years later, on my twentieth birthday. Life hadn’t improved since Sara left, it had only spiraled further. The suicide Hotlines wouldn’t even accept my calls at this point. I was at the proverbial end of the line. The last stop, and so on and so forth. So I had gotten myself a special birthday gift, a .44 Magnum. Sitting there on a chair in my apartment, my new toy pressed to the side of my head, I said goodbye to life, to the world, closed my eyes, and pulled the trigger.

    Let me tell you about how a bullet, specifically a flat point bullet works. The head of the bullet is wide and flattened, to allow the bulleted to penetrate deeply into it’s target, normally big game of some sort, deep enough to hit a vital organ. These things are used to kill BEARS, so obviously, when used at point blank on a human skull, it can be quite…messy. The overall effect of this however, which I would quickly learn, is completely nullified if your skin just happens to be impenetrable.


    That’s all for now
  18. So I read this, and all that registered was "Super nerd speak! AZGHUL HATE SUPER NERD SPEAK! AZGHUL SMASH!"
  19. Vorag, my BS/Regen's theme could probally be just about any really heavy metal song, preferably something by Rammstein.

    Totally!
    I looked on my map today, and do you know what I found out? There IS no Paragon City in Rhode Island!
    And then, when I told my history professor about the Nazi Invasion of America during WWII, the whole class laughed at me!
    I think a certain gamemaker has been telling fibs!
