(I'm not entirely sure, terrible memory however. It's also worth noting as I'm quite daft I'm a Union boy :O)

Kings Row, The Gish. 19:40

The apartment light flicked on, the figure carried himself heavy as he moved into the bedroom and turned the light on in there too. Yes everything had been left exactly as he'd left it, which considering how much everything else changed had left him pleasantly surprised. He dropped a rucksack onto the bed and moved back into the living room and stared himself at the mirror.

Rayash had changed greatly from his days as a fledgling hero, since the death of his sister during the second Rikti invasion he'd undergone many changes, some emotional.. Some physical, he'd come to understand his 'mutation' which turned out to be no mutation at all, but a part of his demonic heritage. That was the reason for his leaving Paragon... Fear.

He stretched his wings slowly and sighed, looking at them intently for a moment before he slowly brushed a hand through his long, ragged, crimson hair. He'd been away from civilization for quite a while as he was trying to find himself and come to terms with this rather radical change to his life. He still wasn't sure if he'd found it or not, but he knew he needed to come back to Paragon, to his home.

Some things changed, others had stayed the same. The Paragon Overwatch that he had called his home and family, they had vanished it seemed and his old friends, well he wasn't sure what had happened to them since his departure, as he looked around his room he felt pangs of regret. He should of been stronger and stayed, maybe things would of been a little different.

He turned on the TV and flicked to the news channel, now nothing had changed there, except the fresh new faces of heroes making prime time news. It made him smile a little as he felt relieved others were there to take his stead as he was away, he moved back to the bedroom and over to a rather old looking wardrobe. He hesitated with the handle as he took a deep breath and opened the door, there was his costume, the first thing he ever wore while starting out in Paragon, he'd eventually hung it up for more casual or high tech gear depending on the situation. But now he looked at it and brushed his fingers across the reinforced leather, tracing his fingers across scorch marks, plasma blasts and more.

Slowly he nodded to himself, sure it would need a bit of modification as it wasn't originally designed with wings in mind, he chuckled a little and looked out of the window onto the streets of Kings Row.

"I'm back again, this time Paragon I'm here to stay."

(OOC: It's also worth noting that I'm slowly working myself back in after a long hiatus, lots of things have changed for me and I'm currently looking for both another RP SG and some people to hang out with. I'll probably be slumming it in Pocket D now and then! :E)

Team Fortress 2 in answer to your question, it's a team based FPS made by Valve. The CoH versions are a gimmicky idea, however for me I've taken to playing my character some :E

Well if you want military a TF2 one would be fantastic! We could have everything except the spy and let's face it he's more a stalker anyway >.>

I think we're missing the very possible theme group here!

GET EM BOYO'S!

A TF2 inspired character by me for giggles which has turned out me playing him. If you see Red Demoman around, please give him a wave or some alcohol, lord knows he has a better temper when drunk. :P

Rayash stood atop a warehouse in the Rikti War Zone, he peered across the landscape, seeing plasma bolts and super powers light up the night sky. He shook his head a little as he cursed himself for being away from Paragon so long that he wasn't able to defend his home during the first waves, all the people who died who could of been saved.. Maybe?

He shook his head and looked around, still relatively quiet near him. Rayash wasn't sure if that was a good thing or not, deciding that boredom would kill him before any of the rikti got a chance to he lept from his vantage point and began tearing through the streets at breakneck speeds, his eyes darting around constantly as he looked for signs of movement.

It didn't take long before blindly diving into a back alleyway he ran headfirst into a group of the invaders, both parties quite surprised by the other. It wasn't time for hesitation however and Rayash leapt into the fray with fists glowing with pure energy which he slammed into the skull of a front conscript, shattering his bones as the being fell to the floor lifeless.

Rayash managed to catch a glimpe of one of the plasma weapons firing and leaped back behind a group of crates, his hiding spot vapourised instantly, still better the crates than himself. With a quiet growl he clenched a fist and thrust it forward to the now tightly enclosed group, a fireball headed straight for the middle of the group exploding into the chest of a guardian who was in the middle of firing off another blast to Rayash, as the explosion radiated outwards more of the rikti were fried instantly, they all fell to the floor.

With a sigh of relief Rayash turned around to head back out of the alleyway when he heard the telltale signs of a portal opening behind him, he turned round fast enough to see one of the Chief Soldiers fire a bolt of plasma straight at his chest, Rayash staggered backwards and looked down to his chest, his suit and his body armour had been eaten through, his chest even showed signs of scorch marks. Another one like that would of been the end of him, another one that seemed to be flying towards him right now!

Ray shielded himself with his arms, awaiting the burning feeling before he dropped, he felt nothing of the sort. He did however feel something, no someone slump against him. He lowered his hands and saw his sister, Valescra holding onto him tightly as she leaned against him, her trenchcoat and clothing completely burned through, he back was badly scarred as she had nothing to protect herself against the blast.

"Val.. Why.. Why did you do something so foolish.. That was meant for me.." Tears began forming in Ray's eyes, even his third eye closed tightly as he held her in his arms.

"Brother.. You're more of a hero than I.. I tried to be strong like you.. But you were always making it look so easy.. You.. You've got more fights in you... Please, make me proud." Valescra's eyes glazed over as her body became limp in Ray's arms.

He gently shook his sister and tried to fight back the tears, the world stopped for that moment in time. Then he heard it, the low chuckle or at least what it seemed to be coming from the soldier in front of him. Ray layed his sister down gently and shot a glare of intense hatred back to the being.

"You shut your damn mouth.. You shut it now! No, wait infact how about I shut it for you!"

With that Ray charged straight at the beast the floor set ablaze in his wake as he was upon the soldier who had no time at all to react to to fist driven straight into it's abdomen, it flew a short distance before hitting the ground hard. Within another moment Ray was stood over the being who had reached for it's rifle, something the hero had intended as he reached with lighting reflexes and yanked the rikti's arm away from the gun, a sickening crunch of bones breaking were heard as Ray glared down at the beast and stood on it's throat.

"Right about now you should be feeling fear, the fear of knowing these last few moments are your last. Take some small consolation in knowing you took away one of the only things dear to me. But don't think I'm angry enough to just kill you instantly.."

Suddenly Ray's body temperature increased dramaticly, the rikti soldier started wriggling a little underneath him, Ray just grinned evilly down to the beast and let out a loud yell as suddenly flames burst from his body and flew out in every direction. After the explosion had subsided Ray stepped away from the soldier who was making quiet clicking sounds, still very much alive but in incredible agony as the life slowly drained from him.

Only moderately satisfied Ray turned back to the body of his sister, his eyes closed as he kneeled beside her and cradled her gently in his arms.

"I'm so sorry Val.. I'll keep fighting, keep fighting till I can't and then I'll still give it my best."

With that he stood with his sister in his arms, looking up towards the night sky again and seeing it lit up by the prolonged fighting, how many others had suffered like him, and how many were going to?

I'd like to think that my selflessness in being the only person who got hit (twice) while protecting that poor tanker with my awesome blaster might is the reason we succeeded >.>

Rayash stood for a moment, idly scratching his chin as he read the poster. Pulling a small handheld device from his pocket, he studied it for a moment and pressed a button as he was bathed in a dull green light.

"I wouldn't exactly call myself doctor material. But this should be interesting all the same."

He raised his phone and flicked through the speed dial for Cadao, the guy was a little creepy sure, but he usually had the information that he was looking for.

"Yeah I'm looking for a guy called Noetic, no no.. He's not in trouble, I'd like to get in contact with him.. Right okay.. You're sure? Alright thanks Cadao, I'll keep an eye out for any circle for you in return."

Pulling out a PDA he messed around with the touch screen quickly sending out a letter of interest electronically.

"Well let's hope he's not one of those magic users that can't use a computer to save their life.."

Alright cheers, I'll be there for about 7:20 then

Okay so what time are we meeting up and where abouts will that be? Or is it just gonna be throwing the invites out for the people when it hits 7:30?

Forgot to mention, Rayash is a Fire/Energy Blaster.

Level shouldn't be a problem as I'm 41, still I've never done the cavern trial and would like to

I'd be up for this. I'll ask my friend about it as well.

Went over them again with people who hadn't got the badges. After porting one guy to their locations we managed to get the beacon.. Odd though that I didn't get it when I landed on each one. I've been in SG mode since level 10

Question has anyone here got the sharkhead isle beacon? Because I've gotten 4 exploration badges there in SG mode and no beacon. Are there any more badges there or has it just bugged?

for anyone wanting to trade arcane salvage in return for tech send a tell to Necronomicon, Ustulo or Xylon. We're an arcane guild, and it's proving difficult to find arcane stuff. But we have tech falling out of our ears.

I usually let a pet die and summon it's spirit, so then I have :

1 X Spirit
3 X Zombies

I do that sometimes, however once I get my dark servant from the miasma tree I will have a total of 8 pets following me around

Bleh silly can't edit after so long thing. Ah well here are the last few pictures. Not much but better than nothing. I'll soon be adding an advanced forge to the workshop hopefully.

What you mean this isn't a foot spa?
Control room with seats for viewing pleasure of the nexus
Workshop Room
Brains, Bottles and Bits

get some more pictures done tomorrow. Warning, my workshop is quite bare apart from a forge and two large spikes

These pictures are a little old, during the time since these have been taken we've got a control room and workshop running. I'll get pictures of those later

Entry Portal
Propaganda Stands
Our energy source
Corridor to energy room :E

I've been playing for an hour or two a day recently. Myself and a friend usually get 4-5 missions done together during that time. That's 520 prestige per mission, exluding what we get from mobs. 520 x 5 = 2600 now lets say there's about 30 mobs in each of those giving 10 prestige each, since mob prestige is shared into equal amounts that's 300 prestige per mission from them, that's 1500 from 5 missions. Making 3600 a day from 2 people playing for an hour.

Now imagine there are people that play more than I do, maybe not earning as much but are on longer so get the same amount. 3600 x 3 = 10800. 10k prestige a day from a couple of people. Granted that's usually the minimum we make. We follow arcs and stories and have a good time. We've never once concentrated on the prestige. So I don't see how it isn't possible to get a functional base in a short time.

Well my SG has about 5-7 active members we're now functional in the way of power and control, we've just built our workshop and need another 25k before we can start to use salvage. It makes me laugh when I see people complaining it's too hard to get prestige, perhaps if you weren't here complaining about it you'd be able to make the base you want.

Also we don't farm prestige, at level 24 I get 269 prestige I believe per mission completion, 10 prestige per even level mob. This all begins to mount up when someone else is going through with you

Couldn't you put it on an auto use thing so that every 60 seconds you just use it again without having to press it every 60 seconds
