*hops onto the wagon* Hi, I brought cookies!

Seems a trend has started with people showing off their costume-creation skills. I like to show off, so without further ado...

First up is my main and only 50 (*shame*), who goes by "Cobalt" though his registered name is the idiotic-sounding "Cobalt Avenger". He's an MA/SR scrapper but citygametracker thinks he's /regen for some reason.
Broken Circle is the same person, but on the red side. Ninja blade/ninjitsu stalker.
Dealus is the unwilling host of an ancient sorcerer's soul. All the Circle's fault, you know. Katana/regen scrapper, Cobalt's brother-in-arms.
Technikolour is Dealus' twin sister. She was in a coma the past two years or so and he was pretty pissed about that. All the Circle's fault, you know. Kinetics/Archery defender, which is not as much fun solo now that she's approaching the 30's.
Advent Destiny, a mutant from the future whose name is way cooler than his costume/concept. He's a goth/metal/rave DJ and bass player. He got to this time accidentally and hasn't left yet because he's looking for his brother. Dark/Dark scrapper.
Takeru Storm is from the future, where his outfit is decidedly less weird-looking [*cough*]. He doesn't care that his brother is looking for him, and he's in no rush to get home. He's been completely taken in by Lord Recluse's Projectestiny plans. Fire/Dark corruptor.
Crucius is a demented cyborg who thinks he's a fallen angel. He's working on getting powerful enough to take on God. EM/Stone brute.
Volkyr is a Russian 'werewolf' who robs banks and such because it's hard to hold a normal job when you sprout fur and fangs at the slightest irritation. He also has a bit of a Gwen Stefani obsession. SS/elec brute.
iH3RD by Pineapple Technology is the latest in robotic bodyguard hardware. It takes the hits so you don't have to, and dishes out punishment in return! Comes in three colors and includes the latest release of iBoomBox. "Pineapple Tech, we put the FUN in Functional!" [Fire/SS tank]
The Dusk Runners are a group of completely useless punks held together by their shared love of mayhem and astrology. They all have celestial-inspired nicknames. Their leader is the inexplicably-blue-haired Vega. Thugs/Traps MM.
OrdinaryGirl lost her space in the great naming fiasco of post-beta. No one is sure how or where she got her powers, or why she uses them to fight crime. The general concensus is that it's some grand experiment of some kind. Illusion/emp controller.
Tiffany Duke, my dominator from a failed group project that I might start playing again. Shallow, spoiled Mafia princess who happens to be psychic. Mind/Psi dominator.
Mara Gold is my Wolverine homage. Except she's female, not infinity-years-old, and hails from NYC. Claw/Regen scrapper, obviously.
Gun Girl Megumi and her posse are part of a mastermind duo with my spouse. She's the illegitimate daughter of a Yakuza boss and is planning on leading a hostile takeover of daddy's territory. Thugs/poison MM.
And finally, there's Storm-Angel, my ex-military AR/Dev blaster who's been stuck at 39 for god-knows how long.

As you can see I'm not a big fan of spandex, but I am a fan of black... Yay dark colors.

Wiiiiiiii!

Fun ain't it!?

On that note, Gun Girl Megumi and OrdinaryGirl are great! <3

I like iH3RD and Technikolour a lot.

I'm loving these topics - been far too few screenshots around here of late. But why are you folks showing just one costume per character!?

Oh wow, Storm Angel reminds me a lot of somebody from back in beta by the name of TechKnow (seen here on the right). (And Inferna looks great on the left, too - except the boots. I don't think it's possible to get any shoes/boots to work well with metal bottoms.)

Anyway, great characters, especially with a bit of background. (A vegan thug mastermind! Or is he from the star Vega?)

Posting more than one costume would take a much longer time X.x and I don't know about anybody else, but I change mine so often that it would be near-impossible to keep up.

Vega is his name. It refers to the star. The character's name in-game is "The Dusk Runners", but in backstory, the MM's name is Vega. All the minions will be named after stars/constellations/other celestial bodies. Punk#1 is named 'Rigel'. The other two tier-1s are planned to be "Sirius" and "Polaris". One of the tier-2s will be named "Orion", and I haven't decided the others. I like to keep with a theme when naming minions. All of Megumi's minions have biblical names (Cain and Abel so far).

Thanks for the compliments, all. The only one I'm not entirely pleased with is Advent... it's just so bland. Suggestions on how to spice it up would be appreciated. Maybe I should try for a 'raver' costume.

Not much spandex, heh ?


I like this russian Werewolf the most.

I hate spandex. >.> Sometimes I'll make a tights alt costume for one of the girls but generally, I'm not a fan. I think it looks boring 90% of the time, and I don't enjoy playing character concepts that call for the look. Just personal preference.

I'm one of those weirdos who plays this game obsessively but doesn't really like comics. I'm more of a manga fan. All I need are some outrageously oversized weaponry and I can pretend I'm playing City of Manga.

I like the Ultimate Spiderman comics, but that's about it. I love Manga with a passion, however.

Not really, no. More Bleach and Evangelion fare.
