Character Death in Praetoria

White would be more heroic, and closer to my normal outfit - but black might blend in better - and be useful for night spying

Not always.

Bloody Bay, Siren's Call and Warburg are technically shared zones, and they have separate hospitals for heroes and villains

You seriously are. You're about the only other sane one here mind you.

And when I feel like the sane one, you know things are getting real.

According to the GR info we have so far, if you make a new avatar and start out in Praetoria, you can choose to help the Resistance, or Tyrant and his thugs, which will push you towards being good or evil.

As for higher levels who change sides, like 50s, we don't know for sure yet what kind of interaction they'll have with the good vs evil battle in Praetoria.

Thanks for the clarification, GG.

Why do you never mention Ms Liberty and HER thugs (Longbow) or Manticore and HIS thugs (Wyvern)? There's enough shady stuff going on in Primal Earth on the 'good' side to balance ANYTHING Emperor Cole is doing in Praetoria

Not really a unique situation. Have any significant comic-book characters ever stayed dead?

Just because we all want to kill Cole and spit on his grave doesn't mean we're ignoring Ms Liberty and Manticore. They're next

I've not heard any reports of them repressing people

Longbow? Pretty sure I've seen them on foriegn soil, shooting at citizens of that country who are trying to have a private conversation with a government official.
Namely: The Arbiters in Nerva.

Arachnos is an organization that supports and promotes violence and crime against Paragon City - it doesn't really matter that they call themselves the "governemnt" of the Rogue Isles or not

Grey, she pops them off like they were ducks on duck hunt.

The Resistance has boobs too, and better hair!

That's a slanderous and unproven claim that the United Nations has in no way legitimized despite all international investigations. The fact remains that without proof of these claims, both Longbow and Wyvern are engaged in criminal acts of war against the citizens of the Rogue Isles, who rely on Lord Recluse and his military structure to defend them from jack booted thugs like Miss "Liberty" (who's unwarranted assaults on our nation are too many to number) and Justin Sinclaire (who is currently wanted for acts of espionage against Aeon Corp and Arachnos). And even without the constant threat of these meddling candy stripers, the Rogue Isles are home to many threats that can be traced to have originated in Paragon City, including, but not limited to, The Circle of Thorns, The Freakshow, The Carnival of Shadows, The Malta Group, not to mention the invading Rikti, who threaten the security of all nations of the earth with their ongoing campaign of destruction, which has the ultimate goal of utterly destroying all the nations of the world, the United States and Rogue Isles included. A war we can scarce afford to ignore while squabbling over international politics as Longbow and Wyvern would have us do! Even if all their claims were true, which they certainly are not, these undeniable facts remain; firstly, Stephen Richter, better known to some as Lord Recluse and his military are protecting the innocent citizens of the Rogue Isles from a great number of threats that can ultimately be traced to Paragon City. Secondly, the Rogue Islands have contributed a massive influx of metahuman soldiers to the Vanguard efforts in the ongoing Rikti War, more than any other nation with the exception of the United States, and we can scarce afford to lose those valliant soldiers support by violating their homelands on a daily basis.

We the people of The Rogue Isles have a petition demanding that these illegal violations of our sovereignty desist, and that the criminal masterminds behind them be handed over to face trial for their warmongering in Grandville. If the global community will not support us in this matter of law, then we will have no choice but to seek these threats out on our own.

Actually, loyal citizen, Nerva Archipelago in an international territory, and not technically within the dominion of Arachnos. Though we have many delegations there involved in various matters of state, it is not our territory, we are guests on Nerva. It is for this reason that the cowardly candy stripers often strike against us when they see a loyal Rogue Isles citizen on Nerva. But do not despair, the same technicality they hide behind can be your weapon against them, should you see a known terrorist among their number, you may consider yourself free to serve them a warrant for their crimes as well!

I'd side with whichever one would sanction the most bloodshed to win. Probably Recluse, by that metric, but I wouldn't rule Tyrant out.

Damn it, is this thing still on?

As has already been pointed out, they are attempting to repress the citizens of the Etoile Isles COSTANTLY!

cheese, open your eyes GG...

And by "repress" you mean "liberate"?

By "liberate" do you mean "roast with flamethrowers and lob grenades at"?

I don't think Longbow attacks civiliains
