  1. One of them seems to have the plant pattern gloves, which might imply that they are former superpowered people.

    Well that didn't take very long for the first accusations to start

Is it new zones? Is it story arcs and task forces? Is it animations? Is it estalishing new canon? Is it all of the above and more?

    Without a definitive notion of what her job is and is not, it's easy to create a list of things I'd love to see done, which don't fall under her purview.
    It's a bit of everything

    None of my (non-VEAT) villains chose to be lackeys to Arachnos. They might collaborate with Arachnos if it furthers their goals, but ultimately they always choose to serve themselves. The funny thing about being a member of Praetorian society, though, is that there's no such thing as choice.
    Well, you can choose to obey, and live

    Really, if anything, my villains would be more interested in working together with the Syndicate, but I get the feeling that that won't be a choice.
    I think the Syndicate are just there for both sides to beat up
  5. Well, sci-fi doesn't actually have to have anything to do with space or aliens
  6. Improved player avatars - more polygons to make us more rounded looking, moving waists, more relaistic hands, more relaistic bust shapes, aninated faces and moving hair - that sort of thing
  7. That would make for some pretty epic angst for Statesman, if she started hanging out with Great Uncle-in-Law Stefan

    I think Malaise, Infernal and maybe Valkyrie are the only ones who'd fit that discription
  9. Golden Girl

    Noooooooo!

    The "Rescue Jake Emmet" radio mission always ends badly.
  10. I'vebeen on teams for 2XP weekends where as soon as they enter the mission, they all say "grats in advance"
  11. I'm pretty sure they're not going to make the Atlas Park trainer go rogue

    "Leaning" or "leering"?
  13. Yes, that would be nice in CoH

    I thought it was fine - she's very dedicated to her job, and doesn't mind showing it.

    Wonder how THAT happened.
    Sean Michael Fish was Garry Stu-ing?
  16. Getting the last 2 healing badges
  17. I like the way he wrote them too.
  18. I've looked at her CoV text on paragonwiki, and I can't see anything that's arrogant or spolit about it.

    Although, the CO hype did die down pretty fast.

    Well, it's not just me

    "Uppity"? What an old-fashioned word

    It's also not the correct one for her - she's just very passionate about her job

At some point, some Villains are going to sit back and think "Damn, that guy certainly sounds like he knows how to have a good time." Of course it will only help matters when turning traitor to the Resistance would involve handing over Resistance cell (of course, I doubt the players would get that option, but we're talking story time here) especially when their arch nemesis Cape-Guy has just joined up.

    Oh, and Golden Girl? I did finally find a comic book character that would agree with the Mind Police, genetic cleansing, and punishment before the crime style of 'crime-fighting' which Tyrant uses. Meet Lock-Up. One of Batman's villains. So yeah, yet again, the only people interested in teaming with Tyrant are the bad guys.

    And a quote from it:

    Quote:
    "By contrast, the Superman-commanded (Global) Soviet Union has grown without resorting to war, and has virtually eliminated poverty, disease and the like. The cost of this progress is an increased infringement on individual liberties, and Superman is fast becoming a Big Brother-like figure. A brain surgery technique that turns dissidents into obedient drones, or "Superman Robots" is in use."


    It might also be worth remembering that "Red Son" was mentioned at Hero Con as one of the influences on GR

    According to one pannel at Hero Con, the Praetorian police Department have "parades - lots of parades".
