Level 50 Aura

I know this has been brought up before by many people (myself included)...but now with power color customization, I think it's a good time to bring it up again.

The ability to have to different aura's at the same time.

With being able to select from a wide variety of colors for your powers, I believe you should be able to have two different auras for your character.
You get one at level 30 and the other at level 50.

Example: I would have red glowing eyes and black tendril fists.

I believe this would also "make" people "want" to play their level 50's beyond hitting level 50.

I don't know if it would make 50's want to play any more than they do simply because they have a second aura to look cooler but add no functionality. But I support the idea none the less. I always found it odd that at 50 there wasn't some sort of costume related mission. You get them at 20, 30, and 40 so why is 50 lacking? I think there should be something mission wise that happens at 50. Some sort of "Hero of the City" mission where you perhaps help the Freedom Phalanx and are award the second aura, additional costume, special badge, temp power, whatever. Just another way of saying congrats on 50.

More options looks wise that make sense?

As I recall from the last time this came up, the problem is a combination of Character Processing Budget (same reason we can't have 2 capes) and limited Costume Anchor Points (I believe it was something like we currently use 28 of a possible 30).

Not sure how do-able this is, but I have two things I'd like to see:

More Auras:
1. Energy Emissions (like energy aura waves that pulse out)
2. Frost (growing over your character)
3. Weapon Auras (choose the weapon type in the aura to make it match or whatever works)
4. Residual Images (residual images of your character left behind where you just were, or at least a 1 to 2 colored generic character scaled like yours trailing behind you so you look like you are kinda blurring or something)
5. Leaking Light (light leaking out through cracks in your suit; this would look nice with circuitry, tech suits, rock-like bodies, all kinds of things; it wouldn't have to be perfectly mapped to the specific texture at hand, like exactly matching the circuitry pattern, but a concept like this could be made to work)
6..... can't really think of more off the top of my head, but you get the idea

Second Aura:
We should have the option at 50 to get another aura. Maybe even at 40. I get bothered having to give up an aura to give my character glowing eyes of some kind, lol. What if my first aura is to make my character look like a ghost, but I want my ghost's eyes to glow too? Or I want some overlap of two auras to create the desired ghostly visual effect?

...wait, there's a costume piece mission at 40?

I'm wondering if the Alpha & the Omega auras that the GR special edition is going to have are level 1 and then some cool new unlockable level 50 auras, myself. Or if Posi was just taking a potshot at the "Omega System" the competition boasts.
