Healed Ozell because he's the best online friend a guy could ask for.
Hurt Essex because LOCRIA STOLE LYDEN FROM JORDAN. -
"Send letters, eh? Sounds interesting" The voice of Jordan echoed through the place he was staying. His computer, letters, and paper all sat on a desk. He figured the gal needed an ego boost.
He cracked his knuckles, and began writing.
Dear Valor,
I have a bit of a problem. You see, i'm infatuated with you, and I cannot hope to conceal it any longer. I need to know, my darling, if we could meet at any point in time. Years in the future, the present... any time for you.
Sincerely,
Anon.
Dear Valor,
Hey, it's me. Just had a few general questions.
1.) Do you kiss on the first date, or just hug or something?
2.) Does Glory prefer roses, or chocolate?
3.) Is Glory, indeed, single?
Your pal,
Jordan
P.S: I'm only kinda serious."
And he wrote letters like the first one. A LOT of them. No return adress, but general kiss-assery, in a lot more neat handwriting then his own. His own was sloppy, and thouraghly unrecognizable from the "hay i luv u valor luv me 2" letters he sent.
Now, to wait. -
Jordan was reading a newspaper. It was a new hobby of his, as he lacked much to do when not out heroing, or being put down for being an ex-villain, or an old friend now turned enemy getting on his [censored] for killing a friend of said now enemy who killed his own friend, and thus repayed in kind. He saw 'Uncommon Valor', and read the first few lines...
Then smiled. He would definately be reading in on this. -
Jordan noticed all of the people around him. Green-guy with smoke erupting from him. Akiko. Morgant. Some other people he had never seen, or was too tired to recognize.
He sighed, and waited. Not much to do beforehand.
((Pics comming soon.)) -
I'm not sure who said this first, but it applies to me:
Step One: Admit that you are an altoholic.
Step Two: There is no step two, as I dont intend to fix this problem. -
((The above two comments sum up my thoughts exactly.
))
-
((Dear Heroid,
You are too good at this.
Your admirer,
Jordan)) -
Name: Jordan Vailo
Level: 37
Global Handle: @Jordan Vailo
Archetype: Scrapper
Primary: Katana
Secondary: Regen
A normal day, a normal patrol. However, Jordan Vailo had found a peice of paper on a Freakshow's body, and now, he was on the hunt to see who could tell him about this... Tournament.
The Katana sliced through the air and into a Freakshow in an upper-cut motion, sending him flying upwords. There was a brief period of shock where the Freakshow around him recognize that their friend wasn't getting up any time soon. They stared at their new enemy, a 6'3 fool who dared to infiltrate their base. He held a Katana in his left hand, and didnt have any pants on for some reason.
He sliced again, this time, making a Freak Tank's head split in two. Jump-Slash. Another Freakshow down. A horizontal slice, cleaving one neatly in two. This all happened in the span of about 5 seconds. There was one last one standing, which the pantless hero kicked to the ghround, and pointed the Katana at his throat. "Tell me about this." He kneeled down to the Freakshow, almost frighteningly close to the newest recruit.
"I aint tellin' you anything, cape!"
"Oh. Alright then." He put hand fingers to teh side of his underwear. "Let me explain it this way, then. You tell me about it, and the underwere stays on."
"DEAR GOD, ALRIGHT! Itz a fightin' thing that our Tank 'ere was goin' to, till you killed him, ya FREAK!" the Freakshow snarled. Pulling pants out of nowhere, the Pantless Hero suddenly became the Pantfull Hero.
"Alright. Hmm... One wish, huh?"
"I wish that I was above Walter Redd on GSR-Lydens list of priorities."
((If this isn't being held on Test/Virtue, i'll need a loller-PL.)) -
I really love your stories, Ty.
-
These are really, really good. Too bad I suck at taking clear screenshots, or else I would try and get one.
-
I said it before, and I'll say it again:
Pretty freakin' good. -
1. Do you Role Play more than 90% of the time you spend playing COH?
Nope. Whenever i'm in a team, which is 90% of the time, I roleplay. When i'm soloing, i'm kinda roleplaying with myself, in a sense... But really, I would say only around 80% of my time is pure roleplaying.
2. About how many hours per week do you play COH?
Around 30 or 40, not sure.
3. About how many hours per week to you spend Role Playing in COH?
See above.
4. On a scale of 1-10, how much do you think your primary toon is a reflection of yourself? (1 = your toon is not at all like you 10 = your toon is a lot like you)
Jordan Norris, my 'Me' character: 9. The only reason its not a 10 is because I am NOT a manipulative trillionaire cyborg with demonic blood in me.
Silent Vailo: 6
5. Why do you like to Role Play? (Or why is Role Playing more fun than just playing COH?)
Because, really, it helps to detract from the grinding levels. Its not just 'Only gettin this much xp....', its 'Hah! Take that, you stupid villain! Off to jail with you!' or so.
6. Do you play any other MMORPGs? If so, do you Role Play when you play them?
Not currently, but I have in the past.
7. To what degree does your Super/Villain Group (if you belong to one) encourage/discourage Role Playing?
I pretty much join all-roleplaying groups on Virtue. On my group on Victory, its requirement is that you HAVE to Rp, so... Yeah. Encourage all the way.
8. If you are part of a Role playing Super/Villain Group, would your group have a problem with a non-RP-ing observer (tag-along) for an hour or so?
That depends on the person.
9. Can I follow-up with you with more (brief) questions either in-game or via a forum PM?
Sure. Send me a tell at @OneVailo
1. In what state/country are you located?
Oklahoma
2. What is your approximate age range? (Which of these ranges does your age fall: under 18, 18-23, 23-30, 30-35, 35-40, 40-50, 50+)
Under 18
3. What do you do for a living? (what's your general occupation?)
Sit around, play games, learn stuff from homeschooling. -
Most excellent, my goo sir. Favorited all the way.
I didnt know that RAGE had +acc, and I was gonna slot my attacks for 2 Acc. Now, I may consider 1 Acc, 1 End Reduc, and 3 damage. I like lots of damage, you see. And that is my job: Damage.
Once again, thanks for the great guide. -
+1 vote for the BRB...
But, then, the Devs would say that Red isnt evil enough for villains, and make it a Big Black ball with skulls and spikes on it. -
I was in a group with my new blaster, a AR/Energy. Someone invited me to team, and I decide to stay.
To keep it short: We did amazing VS +3's. -
Yeah, we got our inspiration from you :P
Did I also mention we RP a lot? -
NOTE: THIS IS NOT MY IDEA! I'M JUST A PART OF IT!
Name: Enhance and Annihilate
Shard: City of Heroes
Overall Theme(s): All Rad/ Defenders or /Rad controllers. Secondaries for Defenders are SUGGESTED to be Radiation, but we will not decline a member for having a Rad/Psi, for example. We strongly suggest Illusion/ or Fire/ controlelrs (I duo'd with a Fire/Rad SKd up to my level with ym rad/rad. Dear god, we were immortal.)
Backstory: The founding members were soldiers in the Rikti war that were Prisoners of War (I think.) They were experimented on and got very lethal doses of Radiation inside of their systems. However, thats not the ONLY thing. There is a once-human that is now chaotic antimatter inside of a suit (Thats me :P) and a woman who, by the use of a Garnet earing, controls both Fire and Radiation.
Group Make-up: As we said, Radiation. The powers that we MUST take are: Accelerate Metabolism
The powers we SHOULD, but DONT HAVE TO Take, are: Enervating Field, Radiation infection, Lingering Radiation, Irridiate
Combat Strategy and Power Combinations: Defenders should open with RI and EF on either a single mob inside of a mission, or multiple ones outdoors. Everyone with irridiate will run in and hit it, while the people with Electron Haze and such position themselves. After the irridiate has gone, Eletron haze for lots of damage. Eye-Laser and Neutrino the remaining to death. Rinse, repeat.
Controllers open with RI or EF if they have them. If not, they open with holds, go into Melee (for the Fires), and unleash hell on ANYTHING that remotely resembles a bad guy.
Costume, Names, and Other Design Issues: We, currently, Sub-20, have no real Uniform. However, we are supposed to be Black and Green. This may change.
Alternative Suggestions: Not very many. Maybe Grav/Rad controllers? Mind/Rad? It is not my duty to say, though. It is my leader to say. -
I'm not really sure what I am, as I play both of my scrappers diffrently.
On my MA/regen, Solo, I am a pure death-dealing machine. If I see something, it lives for exactly 3 seconds. On teams, i tend to just stay back and wait for buffs, THEN destroy anything I see within 3 seconds.
However, on my Katana/Dark, i'm totally domestic. I can solo well, but I needs my Speed Boost and Fortitude, and maybe Adren boost. -

Oh, and add to the scenery the occasional piece of space junk. Y'know, Surveyors, a crashed Saturn 3rd stage, a Soviet LK lander, a Gemini craft mounted on an LM lower stage, a pile of garbage including red/blue/green spacesuits, a strange sphere with shuttered glass panes, a piece of grafitti stating "Zod was here", a featureless black monolith...
[/ QUOTE ]
Power rangers reference FTW!
Anyway, I do agree with this idea. The anti-grav would be very interesting... Though it would be infinately frustrating/funny to get stuck at the ceiling because you accidently lept/flew too high... Or make it so that if you get stuck at the ceiling, or even hit the ceiling, your automaticly teleported back to the beginning to the zone. isnt that how the Shadow Shard works if you fall off?
And no to the space suits. There should be options there. For instance, my Technological hero Lieutenant Jordan, with no superpowers, would have to use a space-suit. However, Reinsakin, my FF/Dark Defender, who is an Alien that can breath in any atmosphere besides earths, should not have to be forced to have one that permits oxygen onto him (since oxygen to him is like Cyanide to us.) -
This is an amazing guide.
I admit I am, most of the time, a back-seat commander. I dont like putting together teams (Mainly due to my overwhelming self-doubt and trying to please everyone), But I like to think I have great strategies.
For instance:
Team leader: Alright, Ta/A Defender, you should pull and drop an oil slick a little in front, while ice Controller drops an ice slick behind us for an escape route, then Fire tanker should use a Burn patch on the Oil Slick. Then the Device Blaster should run in and put caltrops on the Oil Slick for increased longitivity.
Me: But wouldnt it be more effective to put down the Ice Slick and the Oil Slick at the same time and the same place, while Fire tanker goes in and drops a burn? That way, we keep the guys together, do great constant damage, and have the Device Blaster throw down Caltrops in front of the squishes just in case?
See, I just did it again.
Anyway, 5 stars to you! -
Most costume contests I go to, I lose. I admit i'm not very fashionable, but even if I get nothing, i still have fun. The only time I ever really 'won' was with my Technology AR/Dev Blaster that looked like a member from the Council (Not really, you'll have to see him to belieave it) and had a fitting bio for it.
Though, the ones that usually win in the contests I am in are the ones with the smallest waste, biggest boobs, and least clothes. Maybe a skirt for the panty aspect.
Other then those select few, every other costume contest that I have been in was amazing. I saw Dirty Toilet Paper, a stone/stone tanker with an all-white costume with dark green and brown marks all over him. He won first place in a costume contest for 'Most messed up costume ever' -
Always compliment someone on a job well done. Did your Invun/SS tank just hold aggro on 17 mobs, all the while they NEVER ONCE attacked any other person on the team? Compliment him/her.
Did the scrapper just someone destroy that Boss that was about to eat you for breakfast? Compliment him.
Did that defender/Currupter just save your [censored]? Thank, then compliment him.
And so on and so on. -

Yeah, look at Scirroco. He's polite to Ghost Widow, and almost all of my villains are polite to others, since helping tthem out causes more evil in the long run.
You SHOULD:
Always lend a helping hand, if one needs it
If you have Recall Friend (I'm looking at YOU, level 4 WarshadeManDan) and the mission is 1.2 miles away, and they are pre-14, and you are there, TP them :P
You should not blame your faults on others. Instead, try and be a nice team player
When someone who already has Lusca tries to help you (I know this has been said before, but...) And he dies 8 times, and you DONT BOTHER TO FINISH OFF THE HEAD, thats bad playing right there.
Judge no one for what they did in the past (IE: AoE pulling, bad-mouthing someone because it was a stressful day, insulting others but feeling really bad and apologising..), but what they do RIGHT NOW.
And finally, no matter what, if you're in a group and if a team-wipe occurs, or ever BEFORE one occurs, take a look at everyone's powers and powersets, and ask the team leader if you can put out some suggestions for tactics.
However, if the teams tactics have been working except for that ONE time when the Tanker's granite/unstoppable/whatever dropped and everyone died, dont suggest new ones, just try and see if it keeps on working. If it happens again, suggest that you need new tactics.
If someone takes the time to add you to their friend list, and they politely tell you why (You are the best tanker ever, your pleasent to hang out with, people love you long time etc...)
If your NOT going to add them back: Give a reasonable explaination that is not name-calling and put-downs.
If you ARE going to add them: Give them an ego-boost. Tell them that while YOU may be a good player, tell them that without you, they wouldnt be half of it (Note: only do this if its true.) And then add them right back
This has been added to my favorites.
