The NDA is already lifted,so its okay to ask about CoV now.
As for your questions,yes there are Crey and Carnival of Shadows but I heard someone mentioned that villains can fight them(Carnies) at lower levels instead of the 40+ range like in CoH.
Hm......didn't anyone realize it was April 1st yesterday? Perhaps Lord Recluse was pulling all your legs! Remember,evil LOVES to have fun(while causing destruction and mayhem in the process,Freakshow for example.)at the expense of any heroes's misfortune.
