  1. I cried during a few of the attempts but then again... I was usually the one responsible for the first death.

    Wow. It feels kinda lonely being the only happy person around.

    I'm happy about the new powersets. Of course, I'm still puzzled by some of the choices but that doesn't keep me from enjoying them.

    DT seems to fit into that pattern...whatever it may be.

    Yeah, I am totally stuck trying to figure out what it says o.O

    I tried having D = T and then swapping out letters where it was appropriate.. but it still ends up like gibberish. So that's probably not what the DT thing means.

    "It's going to be the Vital Twins. Capiche." She said for the effect and then brazenly shoved him out of the way and looked at Drake.

    "Only if the Vital Twins could stop bickering for two minutes, don't ya mean?" Bianca teased as she suddenly realized she was being pushed further and further out of the situation. There were too many big and useless egos operating here, and she couldn't wait for things to get out of hand.
  6. 'Capiche?' She said in her head, watching Drake assault one of the new arrivals. 'He really must be from the Family.'

    "Well, Drake, thanks for the advice but... I tend to provide my own protection." Sneering up at him, seeing as he had a few inches of height on her. It was times like this that she hated being short for her age.

    ((I had a longer post written.. but my computer ate it.. ))
  7. She had been so happy when the Arachnos helicopter had landed at the Zig. It was finally her chance to get out of that forsaken place and to go someplace better. Hopefully a place where she could resume the activities she was engaged in before she was arrested. Once seated on the helicopter, the opinion she held of her saviors quickly changed drastically.

    Not only were they taking other prisoners, they were only taking the ones around her age. Was this "Break the Kids out of Jail Day" over at Arachnos or something? She sat through the entire ride in silence, listening to Elan and Amos bicker. When they finally landed she waited until the pair exited before calmly hopping out as well.

    As the breeze stirred up by the helicopter blades hit her, her brilliant orange hair tumbled about her shoulders. She focused her dazzling green eyes on the immediate area, watching as other teenagers came to see the helicopter and had never wanted to die so badly in her life. This place was even worse than the Zig.

    "Stupid, [censored] Arachnos..." She cursed under her breath, as she noticed Elan and Amos were still bickering even in this new environment. "Nothing ever stops those two." After pushing back the loose strands of her hair, she fidgeted with her two eyebrow rings before walking further away from the twin siblings.

    "So who is in charge around here?" She called out, her arms crossed over chest and her hips canted to the side in a sign of defiance.

    I hate to burst your bubble, but most of the folks are waiting for Blarg's 'Supervillain 101' so they probably don't want to put characters into this thread.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Err my reply wasn't to you. It was to the person suggesting there be an open rp format of something like this thread.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I realize that and I was replying anyway. Just wanted to make sure you knew of one possible reason why this thread hasn't taken off the ground.

    Hermod, like before, I am setting you up as Co-GM. Hope that doesn't put more on your life than you can handle! Second, I'll probably be setting up Supervillain 101 tomorrow. Start thinking of characters people!

    Lol. This thread has turned from an innocent story to a longwinded talk about my threads. Let's stay with the OP people!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I have plans for a character, but I hope it doesn't conflict with what you and Hermod are going to be setting up...

    Heh.. I was waiting and waiting for Blarg's new thing to pop up and I thought this was it...



    [/ QUOTE ] It will be on the way soon! Just give me two hours where I don't have anything to do in RL. Sheesh! Be patient!

    Heh.. I am waiting patiently and I would never had said anything if this thread hadn't appeared. I understand that your probably busy with other stuff. I do want to make sure I get a spot in this one though..

    Edit: I do like what you started, but I am waiting for Blarg's thing, sorry.

  14. Hero Name: Blazebolt

    Real Name: Chase August

    Race: White

    Origin: Mutant

    Hero or Villain: Hero

    Archetype: Blaster

    Former Job(If Any): Production Manager at VertTech Inc., one of many companies that specialized in finding new applications for Rikti technology.

    Current Home: Has always lived in Paragon City, residing in Kings Row until shortly after becoming a Hero. After living in various sections of the city, Blazebolt currently splits his time between his SG's base and his apartment on Talos Island.

    Brief Physical Description: 6'4" with dark green eyes, blonde hair and a muscular frame.

    Brief Personality Description: Serious at times but mostly lighthearted and comical.

    Goals and motivators: Early in his life as a hero, his goal was to arrest the Clockwork King (for reasons explained in his history) and put an end to the destruction caused by the King's minions. Since accomplishing that (at least in his on-going story, cause we all know the Clockwork King gets beat everytime someone does the Synapse TF), his goals have shifted toward proving that he's worthy of being a Hero and that his accomplishments were not for purely selfish reasons.

    Does your character care about Freedom Corps/Arachnos?: He respects the Freedom Corps and will work with them if the occasion arises. On the other hand, Arachnos is quickly becoming a force to be hated in his eyes.

    A typical quote from your character: "You mean that wasn't the right button? Oops..."

    Do Heroes or Villains Recognize your character, if so how: Blazebolt wears several different costumes and changes them at regular intervals with exception to one of those costumes. It is the costume he wore when he defeated the Clockwork King and he is easy to recognize when wearing it.

    History:

    Brief Origin (This link is also the link in my signature)

    Not as brief Origin
  15. Anyone notice that Ratchet posted in here just to have his name on the top of the list?

    Oh wait.. that's what I'm doing too!
  16. The best piece of NPC dialogue I saw in beta (well okay, maybe the most random) was when I clicked on a random citizen and she said: 'I like pie!'

    And that was it... she was a very strange NPC...

    Sally Spawn Rate

    I thought it was called Believer.. not Unbeliever?

    Sally Spawn Rate

    [ QUOTE ]
    Ok, we screwed up.

    We knew that Sally was going to be rare. We knew that with 1 HP she was going to dive under the water before most people ever saw her. This was going to lead to her being "mythical" and rarely seen on a server. We had a spawn rate in mind when we designed everything, including the lowering the requirements down to 2 Sally Defeats for the Believer badge.

    Then I noticed someone asking that the spawn rate be "lowered to 2 1/2 to 3 hours". I said to myself, "Self, that doesn't sound right, she should already be spawning at a better rate than that." So me and one of the programmers went in and looked at the spawn rate.

    Yikes.

    A minimum of 10 hours between spawns was NEVER our intention. This means Sally would spawn once or twice a DAY. Defeating her twice at this crazy rate is a task I would never wish upon CoH players.

    We have fixed it today (I don't know when it will make it to the Training Room server) so there is a maximum of 1 hour between spawns. This still makes her "rare", but it's now within the realm of possibility that casual players will get to defeat her twice within their time in Croatoa, and thus earn the badge.

    Again, we are very sorry about this.

    (Nip in the bud time: The spawn was set up in a way that we intended to have her spawn at a much faster rate than she was, but the fact that the spawn was ALSO set up to make sure that only 1 Sally was active at a time prevented her from being spawned at the faster rate. This was not obvious until we investigated claims that it was taking over 4 hours for her to Spawn. In our original thinking, it was just "someone else got to her before you did", but comments from you guys had me go in and investigate it further).

    I guess when this fix goes live it'll be time to bring out the old camping gear again. I sure do miss spending time with all the non-man-faced witches.
