Seeing as the pallet's name is 'poison', I went with a spines/regen scrapper, and just worked out a costume to go with that. Used a more classic costume again, and actually came up with a name this time! Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you, Crackthorne!

Well, I made mine, and just noticed it was some what similar to CrackThorn...but hey, I still like mine ; )

Corrupt Thoughts!

A Mind Control/Thorn Assault dominator ^_^

Nothing is as satisfying as 'thinking' your opponents to death >_>

She has toys ^_^

And she ain't afraid to use em!

All about the flair.

I just like this part of the jump pose : p

She has a little possessed garden gnome, his name is Stubbs.

Gotta try thinking her way out of this one.

Any who, I like taking screen shots, and coming up with character for my characters...so I will probably be keeping her around for a while >_> I like that she will always have a slightly sadistic smile, because it is important to enjoy your work ^_^

Here's mine:

Venus Dionaea
Venus2

Not my best, but I liked the concept. The colors reminded me of a tropical or exotic plant.

It looks like there's going to be a lot of Spines and Thorny Assault entries for this one. Both of which I am also guilty of creating.

I think I just don't like the color pallete for this contest. The last pallete flowed together more smoothly. A lot of these costumes, while good ideas in general, are sort of ruined by the awkward pallete.

Just my opinion, I could be wrong.

It is difficult to balance the colors without giving it a Christmas theme.

Yuh..

This was a really hard pallet. I originally had a red/green theme, but then decided I didn't like how it turned out, and used black as the primary color instead.

I like how most of it turned out, buuuut... she's in for a major costume revision down the line, for sure.

Yeah, perhaps this was a rather difficult one to use. Chose it because I could clearly see the colors it matched up with in the default COH pallet.

Hopefully, the next one will be a bit easier. By the way, winners of the previous contest, I've gotten your messages and your sprites are underway, so don't worry. They'll be out alongside the judgments of this round of costumes.

Alright; I'll allow submissions on Saturday up until 2:00 PM EST, and after that, it's judging time!

So, last minute entrants, get those costumes in!

 

Posted

Heh, I thought it was Saturday >_> That's why work shouldn't give me Fridays off, it throws everything out of whack!

And since every one else did nifty composite shots of their entries : p

Composite Corrupt Thoughts!

Made my entry too soon, don't have anything else to distract myself with >_>

I guess I could try and get a few more levels in the meantime. >.>

Tried to go away from the usual "poison" motif, since I prolly couldn't make anything better than what has been posted so far, that and I saw the reds and thought.... demon... and the greens screamed CoT.. so I fused them:

Erme - Mind/Sonic Controller

(Note: couldn't add the demon tail seen on the Succubus mobs as the Robed Tops didn't have tails available under belt. Everything else is close as I could get it)

Little is known about Erme. She was discovered on a Longbow investigation into a suspected Circle of Thorns Oranbegan temple. The Longbow party found the temple full of unconscious Circle of Thorns cult members, save one person: Erme.

She was found huddled on a summon altar, the rest of Circle in the room crumple don the floor. As the Longbow party entered the room, Erme sat up a bit but did not attack as they entered. She seemed confused as they explored the room. Once of the Longbow Guardians noticed one of the fallen Circle robeless. Longbow assumes Erme took it and wore it however they've found it difficult to communicate with her. The Sergeant in command of the group attempted communication, asking her who she was and what happened.

The only response she gave was "Erme" accompanied by a high shrilled voice, which was high enough to knock out half the Longbow party. She repeated it one more time, pointing to one of the fallen Circle members, until only the Sergeant and one Guardians was left conscious, for they quickly placed earplugs into their ears. The two waited until Erme said nothing further, then called for backup. A few heroes from MAGI and the Midnight Squad were both dispatched to the location, where they were able to safely transport Erme to a Midnight Squad safehouse.
The Midnight Squad has yet to discover much more about her. They theorize that she was a Succubus summoned by the Circle, but oddly isn't as aggressive as the typical Succubi. She only seems to respond intentionally aggresive if she senses danger to herself, as some Longbow soldiers entering her room in the Midnight Squad attacked her assumed she'd harm them.
Her true name unknown, they've stuck to calling her "Erme." The Midnight Squad researchers studying her assume it may have something to do with Ermeeth, the Circle of Thorns god, as Erme keeps saying the word any time she sees something Circle of Thorns related that she recognizes.

Poison Pete

A former "Family" man who was fingered as a squealer, for this he was shot, stabbed, electrocuted, dropped into a vat of toxic waste and flushed into the sewer system. Much to the families surprise it didn't kill him...now hes back to hand out some pain.
