That's easy, just use Procedure Z.

Karnage - Monster. Psychopath. Fun at Parties.
FyreShadow - Innocent. Naive. God-like Powerful.
Queen Armitage - Caring. Exiled. and out of Options.

I tell ya, every time I run my favorite villain the NPCs on the screen cringe away in fearÂ… some even run!
[/ QUOTE ]
I wish this were the case.
What ACTUALLY happens, is every now and then the NPCs run
away. But most of the time, they initiate Gamma Protocol - a
trick all citizens of Paragon learn in school like a fire drill, taught
to them by visiting Longbow representatives.
Gamma Protocol is a clever mix of zig-zag evasion tactics, and
a mass Delaying Action. To the average villain, it looks like
they're running stupidly around like decapitated chickens. But
what they're ACTUALLY doing is hindering the villains as much
as possible until PPD and/or Longbow can arrive.

You want to know what I hate? I'll tell you!
<ul type="square">[*] Being stuck in traffic
[/ QUOTE ]
At last! The real reason there are so few cars in Paragon City and the Rogue Isles! When Castle wants to go somewhere he doesn't want to have to fight traffic.
No Wait!! We have it here first folks! Castle is the one who came up with destroying cars in Mayhem missions! He hates other drivers so much he jotted down their license plates and make/models so he could replicate their slow moving vehicles in Mayhem missions!

Major upcoming Villain nerf.
[ QUOTE ][*] Sudden loud noises
[/ QUOTE ]
This explains why the damage sometimes flashes above my character's head some 4 or 5 seconds before the attack sound effects occur. Castle just wanted plenty of advanced warning.
[ QUOTE ][*] Temperatures below 50f and above 80f -- drop both by about 15f if I'm trying to sleep!
[/ QUOTE ]
Major nerf in the pipes for fire and ice sets. Said nerfs will also cause damage reduction during game night time hours.
[ QUOTE ][*] Insomnia
[/ QUOTE ]
Sleep attacks will be buffed beyond belief in both accuracy and duration. There will be no resistance allowed vs sleep attacks by either players or NPCs.
[ QUOTE ][*] Bad ideas -- especially when they are mine!
[/ QUOTE ]
You must really be hating the fact that you decided to post all this then... heh.
[ QUOTE ][*] Bitter food
[/ QUOTE ]
Castle to become vegetarian once he realized all the cattle, pigs, chickens and fish he'd been eating all these years might have been just a wee bit bitter about the whole "slaughtered so humans can eat us" thing.

Actually... I'm with you on this one.. it's one of the reasons I only watch about 1 hour of TV each week.
Oh... and... Castle advocates heavily censoring the Villain's Television contact. Any Villain embarassment resulting directly from a Television mission will now grant the player experience points, infamy and drops in Compensation.

Wow, I have a surprising amount in common with Castle. Interesting to know. Not necessarily useful information to know I have a certain amount in common, but interesting none the less.
Ohh and castle, when you are working with formula X to make it incorporate variable Y, don't forget to account for gravity where appropriate, Einstein forgot to do that once and all those other guys won't stop talking about it.
Just saying, it's less of a headache if you factor it in the first time.
