Hope you don't mind a late-comer to a somewhat old thread. A very cool idea! So here goes with a few of my favorite characters:
Steelshock: A tall figure clad in white-gold full plate armor carrying a heraldic shield with a curious stylized double "I" emblazoned on it. His face is hidden behind a veil, while his hands and head glow with a whitish effulgence. His voice is soothing and his body gives off a curious warmth.
Ironburst: A large and ferocious madman wearing an undone straitjacket, his face in an iron mask. Blood trickles from the eye sockets of the mask, and broken chains are manacled to his ankles. Around his waist is belted a coil of thin rope from which dangles a glinting wedding band.
CASsie: A young woman dressed in rags but with bright electric blue eyes. She is almost always in the company of a band of tiny blue will-o-the-wisps that light on her hands and shoulders. There is an expression of intense eagerness on her face.
The Cybertyrant: A huge black storm cloud with a vague suggestion of humanoid shape. Red lightning plays through the form while a black hand reaches out to clutch and claw. Sometimes insane laughter can be heard amid the thunder. -
Name: The Iron Immortals
Currently Recruiting: We are accepting new members, looking for those players interested in RP.
RP Level: RP-intensive. OOC Posts are often necessary, but try to stay IC as much as possible
PvP Level: Casual at most. We do not generally engage in PvP.
Theme/Concept: We are a group of synthetic life forms (robots, cyborgs, AIs, nanite colonies, etc). We have come together, with the help of the Central Union AI hive mind, to serve alongside organics and forge a great destiny for our kind.
Activity: Currently we have 14 unique members, and 2 alts. All North American time zones are represented, so most of the time at least one of our members can be found on-line. "Prime-time" can be considered to be between 7PM and Midnight Eastern Time.
Requirements for Membership
* All levels, ATs and origins are accepted. Technology origins are the most common, but provided an origin can be justified to an officer, we can work with it.
* We also require that you be active at least once in a 30-day period (any longer and we will remove).
* It is not exactly required, but we heartily recommend you take part in any group meetings, special events and/or important threads on our web site forums. We mean to foster a community spirit.
* As always, please stay in-character as much as possible. If you need help with learning effective RP, don't hesitate to ask.
Leadership
* Steelshock (Core Command/overall leader)
* Gene-Techna (Construction Nexus/base construction auxiliary)
* Delirium Engine (Command Processor/third-level officer)
* Weapon 27 (Memory Sub-Core/recruitment specialist)
In-Game Contact(s): Global @Cyberwatt
Out-of-Game Contact(s): Email address - robert.c.fountain@gmail.com
URL: http://www.guildportal.com/guild/376893
Coalition(s): IC allies with The Legionnaires, Cmdr. Stone's Renegades. (NOTE: Each of these groups allows alt membership in our group)
Other Details
* Once you've been accepted, please try to stay in SG mode as much as possible to earn prestige for the group (chest insignia not required).
* We have no official uniform as we value the diverse creativity of our members.
* At this time, we are working on scheduled events and meeting times. Watch this space and our web site for details as they come.
* We encourage AE arc creation and detailed character origins. We also encourage RP threads at our site forums.
* Our aim is to become the premier SG for synthetics on Virtue. We are working under an over-arching story arc that only a few members know about completely: the destiny of The Iron Immortals is mysterious but far-reaching. Stay tuned! -
Hey there! I recently got added to your spreadsheet of mentors, but I noticed an error: under the server column for my entry (row 117) you're showing the same value as you have for the "Preferred Role" column. My preferred server is Virtue, so you know what to put there.
Cheers!
P.S.: User name column should be @Cyberwatt. @ symbol is currently missing as well. -
My supergroup, which interacts in-character the majority of the time, uses the architect as a way to create interactive story threads. And since there is near-limitless capacity in the human mind to create meaningful plots, we can't get enough of it!
If I had one wish to improve the architect it would be to improve the interactivity of the NPCs, allowing branching dialog options and fights taking place depending on the choices a player makes. -
Hi everyone! I recently commissioned a couple of pics from Omi Remalante Jr. on Deviant Art of my character Steelshock (Virtue server). Please check them out and be sure to compliment him. I think they're quite cool.

Wow, have you got an hour or so?
Seriously, while I'm not sure I have any replies as witty as those above, I suppose there can be a thing or two to be said...
Tolkien can be quoted as having said that all stories "ought to have good endings." So much of the time, real life can seem just the opposite; and without getting into various semi-transcendent truth claims, it ought to be obvious than humanity needs a good ending far more often than we might admit. In other words, we need to know every now and then that, in the words of a certain comic character, "all will be well."
Personally I'm into CoH for the RP as well as the mechanics. For me this provides community, a feeling of empowerment and a kind of purpose that helps crystallize life in general. And most importantly, the stories we tell in that community can all have good endings.
So here's to good endings! Cheers, everyone. -
Hi everyone!
This wiki is a great idea; I'm enjoying adding content. Speaking of which, please feel free to check out my character Steelshock on this selfsame wiki (link is in the sig below). I'd appreciate any feedback.
Thanks for making this resource available. Cheers!
