With all my entries, I tried to stay true to the character as presented in game and what little I know of the lore, but give them all a makeover that is slightly more modern.
Global Handle: @Mionas
Vindicator: Ms. Liberty
Why: With Ms. Liberty, I wanted to go with solid colors instead of the current fades from red to blue. And since she now represents the game's archetypical patriotic character, I went the red,white, blue theme with gold added in to incorporate her blond hair with her overall theme. She's also now in charge of the major Lv50 TF, so I wanted to give her costume a more battle-ready motif with a simple body armor concept.
Vindicator: Aurora Borealis
Why: Aurora was an attempt to just modernize her current costume but at the same time not lose the nature of the costume either. I wanted an open costume with skin, so I chose one of the wedding costumes for its openess, but also for the added texture given it that makes it stand out against her darker skin. Since her original costume is really white with white accents, I wanted to give her accents that remained light in tone, but also reflected the nature of her name as well. So doing an image search for auroras, I chose light colors that showed up most often in the search and still matched well with her costume and skin tone.
Vindicator: Infernal
Why: With Infernal I decided to try to bring out his power concept into his new look. I went with leather pieces for their traditional uses in areas of high heat, with accents in firey orange. I also gave him a few accent pieces to emphasize his demon summoning side, showing off a belt of skulls and bone colored shoulder spikes to match the horns on his helmet.
Vindicator: Luminary
Why: For Luminary I wanted a sleek looking modern robotic body. While I chose the Praetorian clockwork pieces for the updated robotic look, but I didn't want the gap in the lower torso. So I chose a chest piece that didn't cover up the upper torso, and provided a somewhat riveted appearance to go with the robotic look. I also kept the golden colors and gave her more accented areas in white compared to the light design of the current model.
Vindicator: Mynx
Why: Coming up with a costume for Mynx actually gave me a bit of trouble, and I tossed out several concepts before I was happy. I finally went with an updated look to her tights for a base, using the newer tiger stripes. On top of that I went with a light leather armor around her core and for her arms and legs. I chose a dark purple to give a new accent to the outfit overall, and to also bring a closer integration to the contrast her hair gave. The only piece I would really like to switch out is the belt buckle, and would put in her classic M buckle.
Vindicator: Swan
Why: In Swan I really just wanted to modernize her look without compromising her femininity. I also wanted to give her costume some accent as well over the white on white appearance of the current model. So I chose gold as a subtle accent to the white to keep with the swanlike coloring, and chose the outfit that allowed a modicum of skin to show through. I went with the feathery cape to match her currently back detail, and added the gold accent along with it. -

I keep getting the following error when trying to update my game after today's patch. At first it tried to let me repair, but now can't even do that. Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling as well, and get the same error.

Been trying to install the NCSoft Launcher, and thusly install City of Heroes, onto my brother's laptop. I get the launcher installed, but whenever I attempt to run it I get two error messages.
The first message:
Quote:This has two options, OK and Exit. Clicking OK bring up the second message.System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Configuration, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
The second message:

The laptop is running on Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit edition. It has the latest version of Direct X, and the various .net mainframes installed (2.0, 3.0, and 3.5 as part of Windows 7). Does anyone have any suggestions that may help? -

Upon seeing all the startled faces on the various heroes he passed, Andrew decided that choosing to wear his old Arachnos uniform probably hadn't been the best of ideas.

Sure... run it the day I leave Vegas and won't have internet access for two days. I see how it is Abrahms.
Have fun on it, wish I could have joined. -
I'm Mionas... and my global is @delrune.

So... let me get this right... you take offense to this badge, because in its original form Hamlet doesn't actually have a drowning scene, instead Ophelia's drowning is mentioned only via a monologue.
Are you not aware that many theater groups rewrite play to put their own take on them? Its not hard to imagine that someone would modify the play so that Ophelia's drowning would actually play out instead of it being mentioned only in monologue. Its not like she was suddenly killed by aliens or cooked long-pig style. If that was the case, then I might be able to understand your issue. -
I'd be up for it, would love to get the badges for the ones I'm missing. I'd rather it be Tuesdays, since that's my most open night between work and the same rp's your in.

I think it be great to see them designed for the Jone's Soda flavors... then you could actually look into ordering them via their custom labels.

I've got the same error as well, any suggestions that don't involve SP3. I refuse to use it because every time I've tried in the past its allowed viruses to override my computer before I could even install the anti-virus.

Title says it... got my merits, and instead of keeping it for one of my characters, I need the money more. Looking to get 2.75B, and I'll roll it up at whatever level you want it at. Contact me on @Delrune.

But can't you see our point of view?
We rely on you.
Can't you see that Christmas cheer
Gets us through the year? -
But can't you see that what you do
Is a dream come true?
Can't you see that every smile
Makes it all worthwhile? -
I know! We were robbed at the very last second... another twenty secs and it would have been ours!
-
Thanks all... its been an enjoyable birthday vacation.

I'm going to sign up with Mio in the hopes that work won't intervene. So put me down for both days.
-
I'm in of course... it'll be fun to unleash Tia on mobs of romans!

Gonna have to bail today... the graveyard shift last night has me exhausted and needing sleep. Good luck for those that do run it.
