Bah, none of that's any good without [Windex].

• Do not call Arbiter Sands "Arbiter Fancy" again.
• "Some stuff happened and some dude died" is not an appropriate after-action report.

• Arguing semantics with the Arbiters is frowned upon.
• Stop referring to the Etoile Islands as "Suck Isles".

Bitt Player:
Bitt's an all-American hero type who ardently believes in the cause of justice. He's been known to cross the probverbial line on rare occasion, however -he openly admits that if he gets a second chance to kill Countess Crey, he'll take it. Hero, with maybe a few Vigilante missions thrown in. Bitt probably won't spend much time in Praetoria, as he's more dedicated to Primal Earth America than some other nation in some other dimension, but when he's there, he'll be pushing the Resistance cause.

Elaina Rhysenn:
She's a gearhead first and a Hero second, but she has no reason to turn to villainy. If she goes to Praetoria, she'll probably spend an inordinate amount of her time there picking fights with the Praetorian Clockwork, looking to salvage and reverse-engineer them.

Samael Diener:
Despite Bitt's best efforts towards instilling him with free will, Samael mostly just does whatever Bitt wants him to do, so he's pretty much a Hero by default. However, Bitt doesn't make many demands in terms of how Samael goes about his heroics, and Samael was engineered to enjoy violence, so he'll be a paticularly vicious Vigilante.

General Phi:
What we have here is a sapient android that considers Voltaire's "When You're Evil" his theme song. He admires Peter Themari, though he thinks Westin Phipps is trying to hard. That said, Phi prefers causing chaos over oppressing the weak, so it'll be hard for him to look at the perfectly-organized, ever-so-over-planned Praetoria without wanting to make a mess of it. He'll stay mainly villainous, but he'll sometimes give the Resistance a hand just to bunch up Emperor Cole's undergarments.

Mecha Maven:
A classic "rebel without a cause" type, Mecha Maven works as Phi's right-hand troublemaker because he gives her something to believe in. Well, and because this "evil" business is a ton of fun. That said, Phi gives Mecha Maven a lot of leeway, and she's more in it for herself, rather than any high (or low) ideals. Mecha Maven will veer wildly across the spectrum, though she'll probably always return to villainy sooner or later.

And I'll have to go think about the rest.

The Rikti in the screenshot don't look like different models from the current ones, but they're definately displaying the improved graphics. Look at their shadows.

Edit: Beaten to it!

• Not allowed to call Lord Recluse "Awesome McBetterthaneveryone".
• Even though Lord Recluse is, in fact, better than everyone.
• I may not instigate riots in the Etoile Islands.
• I may, however, instigate riots in Paragon City.
• May only instigate riots in Paragon City while not in uniform.
• Tight pants are not something that the people of Paragon City typically riot over.
• Neither are wet T-shirt contests.
• Or a lack of wet T-shirt contests.
• Arbiter Rein is not a rock n' roll rebel.
• There is a great deal of paperwork which needs to be filled out within Arachnos, but none of it ever involves lists of the sexual deviancies I suspect my superiors of participating in.
• Even if I have proof.
• Must not spread rumors about my superiors.
• Arachnos Drones do not have remote controls, and if they did, I would not be allowed access to them.
• Must not call the Wolf Spiders "cannon fodder", even if they are.
• Must not call the Fortunatas "brain sisters", it creeps them out.
• When Mind Linked with a Fortunata, must not think things specifically selected to creep her out.
• Not allowed to make dirty jokes about Mind Linking.
• Not allowed to make dirty jokes about anything.

• Must not suggest inappropriate uses for The Web to Regent Korol again.
• If I thought of it, and it's not what The Web is already used for, it's probably inappropriate.
• Do not kick Regent Korol's Spiderlings.
• Baldness is not a super-power, I should stop insisting that Arbiter Rein be classified as a metahuman.
• I am not allowed to create four additional Jade Spiders and modify them to combine into one larger machine.
• Must not encourage fellow soldiers to try things they saw in cartoons.
• Especially not while maintaining The Web.

Professor! I knew someone wacky was missing! You still have the best avatar on the forums, man.

• If I hang panties on the mechanical arms of a sleeping Crab Spider, they'd better be my panties.
• The Arbiters are not under any obligation to explain to me why a single man would have panties.
• I will not encourage new Bane Spiders to test their cloaking devices by staging panty raids on Ghost Widow's tower.
• Trying to find panties in Ghost Widow's personal chambers is futile, and I am no longer allowed within a kilometer of Ghost Widow's tower.
• I will undergo psychological re-training every time I refer to women's undergarments. Every. Single. Time.
• If I ever try to say anything to Doctor Forrester again, he is to remind me of the "velociraptor incident", report the exchange to the nearest Arbiter, and go about his work.
• Next time I call an Arbiter "spanky", I will die.
• Yes, assignment to the Dig Site in Faultline is a punishment detail. That's why I'm going there.
• Arachnos does not have a vehicle named White Base. However, I should assume that if we ever get one, I will not be allowed to jump onto it.
• Lord Recluse does not wear his mask to disguise the fact that he's actually Lemmy Kilmister.
• Or K. K. Downing.
• I am not allowed to use words I don't know the meaning of. In paticular, I should stop calling Scirocco "Stevadore".
• If ordered to develop a battle plan, I will come up with something more in-depth than "shoot them until they die". If that was all the planning we needed, I would not have been ordered to make a plan.
• While it may be true that any plan where I lose my hat is a bad plan, the Arbiters are more displeased about plans where I lose my pants.
• Before advising a superior to "just throw minions at the problem", I will recall that I am a minion.
• Stop asking Tarantulas about their surgery.
• Do not hit on Tarantula Mistresses, it's not nice to remind them of the drawbacks of the Tarantula Exoskeleton.
• Do not hit on Tarantula Queens, they're pretty much insane.

Want to get cash fast and easy? Here's what I do:

1) Have a look at the Recipe Level/Divider chart on ParagonWiki's Common Invention Recipes page. If you divide a Common IO's crafting price by the appropriate divider, you get the amount of Influence an NPC vendor will give you for that Recipe.

2) Hit Wentworth's or the Black Market and look at what Common IO recipes are selling for over there. You want to find Recipes with plenty for sale and showing a sell price history well below what an NPC will give you for them. This is easier than it sounds, because people are silly and slap Recipes on the market for whatever amount instead of checking what they're worth. Especially look at Recipes which relatively few people use, like Confuse Duration and Range Increase. You can usually skip Accuracy Recipes.

3) Set up buy orders for as many underpriced Recipes as you have Influence and/or market slots for. Go for it! So long as you're bidding less than an NPC pays, you're good.

4) Go. Play. Have fun. This is the part where you wait, except you're not really waiting, because you don't have to be right there at the Consignment House. Beat up some enemies, enter a costume contest, log off and do something else, whatever!

5) Come back after some time. Sometimes you'll buy a huge stash of Recipes in a matter of minutes, other times you'll have to wait overnight. For this step, I recommend going to a Consignment House very close to an NPC that buys Recipes. Grab as many Recipes as you can carry and sell 'em to said NPC. Repeat until you've sold all the Recipes you just bought. Then, place bids on more Recipes.

This method isn't going to generate massive amounts of money, but it'll easily get you enough to SO out a character, and it takes minimal time and effort. I've got characters in the teens that have generated millions of Influence through this system.
