The City of Heroes Lore

Oh must dig them out of storage and re-read them must have missed that first time round.

Well i was thinking and ill admit that its pretty iffy if her original body was destroyed on purpose maybe by tyrant then to avoid any other attempts she may have split her self up a little as next time she mite not be able to just grab a new body. maybe that's why her patients all go mad they have shards of her mind in them?

I was joking, TRT.

Oh downloading that's a beater idea don't fancy digging thrue all those box's

Having just written an arc that flirts with the backstory of The Council, 5th Column and Arachnos - and Arakhn and The Center in particular - I have some lore questions relating to their pre-WW2 histories:

1) The lore infers that Arakhn has the same host body now that she had in 1926, the year she first met Paolo Tirelli (The Center) and Ridolfo Uzzano (Requiem's host). So before Arakhn's host merged with a Nictus who was she, what was her real name, and what year was she born?

2) What is the name of Arakhn's Nictus and what year did the current/1926 host merge with it?

3) We know from in-game lore that Arakhn was a member of Arachnos, so what year did she join Arachnos and when did she leave?

4) We also know from in-game lore that The Center tried to recruit Arakhn to his cause in 1926, so was Arakhn a Council spy within Arachnos, or did she not join The Council until she left Arachnos?

5) What year was The Council formed, and did Paolo Tirelli only start using the name "The Center" after he founded The Council?

6) In-game sources suggest that The Center provided funding for Requiem's 5th Column at some stage - was this before WW2 when the 5th Column was being created, or did The Center only fund the 5th Column when Requiem was rebuilding them post-WW2? I guess what I really want to know is whether Requiem, Vandal and Nosferatu were members of The Council before they formed the 5th Column in 1938?

7) Did The Council split from Arachnos, or vice versa, or were their origins separate? (which would be somewhat coincidental with both being present around Mussolini's government in Italy pre-WW2)

8) What is Nosferatu's real name and when was he born?

9) What year did Red Widow assassinate The Weaver? (allowing Lord Recluse to take control of Arachnos)

10) Is The Weaver actually dead, or did he fake his death and become The Center when it became clear Lord Recluse was going to take control of Arachnos? I don't necessarily believe it, but someone had to ask...

Greetings all,

I've reposted all the previous lore answers here on the European boards in a thread called Canon Fodder.

In addition I've compiled *most* of the questions you asked here and posted answers for those. From now on all answers will be posted on both the US and EU sites!

I'm also going to do my best to prowl these forums more often and see how things are over on your side of the pond.

Cheers!

Thanks Mr.

Edit: linky poos for those too lazy to search for it.

Hello again,

This week we have an action packed Canon Fodder post! Not only are some amazing facts about Blue Steel being revealed but I'm also posting a very small piece from the actual Story Bible to answer a question...and hopefully help answer some doubts as well.

Tally ho!

Dont you know manti? We're having a merge

OMG!

Blue Steel = Chuck Norris!

I think we already knew he was

Beneath that blue helmet is, another helmet.
There is no theory of evolution, just a list of being Blue Steel allows to exist.

We could go on forever tbh, the whole fact that he (reveal for spoils):

beat down the clockwork king so bad the king is now in a big robot body says it all really

Blue Steel can slam a revolving door
Looks like someone is a Chuck Norris fan

Chuck Norris wants to be Blue Steel when he grows up

Oh crikey not this again. I thought they banned these "jokes" a few years back.

If a dev starts telling them, in an official canon thread too, then they're totally ok

It's great to see part of the story bible (even if it is an old version or only part of the Igneous entry) So thanks for that.

But...

The question was "What exactly are the Igneous and what is their connection to the Devouring Earth?"

Your answer seems to leave out any reference to the latter part - i.e. What is their connection to the DE?

Any chance you can answer that? The link to DE came as a big surprise to some of us when it was included in the Hollows hazard zone info (from the recon officer). And I can't recall any Ig/DE link being mentioned or alluded to anywhere else outside of thois recon info.
