Please note, it seems 2 of the Mercy Island names haven't made it into this week's Wordblock (namely Burke and Marino). I have updated the above post to reflect this.

Those are two of the ones I've been searching for for the past hour and a half. If I had known it was 13, I woulda posted back then.

Well done Gorbified! That's some refreshing skills you've got there for posting a mere minute after my last post!?!
I've sorted out your title so all you need to do is PM me your chosen code.
There will be more opportunities to get a costume code but expect Ebil-o to mislead you again in the future!

Welcome to our "Search the words, save the world" forum mission!
A super computer turned evil codenamed Ebil-o is attempting to take over our most powerful nations' computer systems and exterminate us puny human beings (how original, huh?). However, every week, a short window of opportunity allows us to break into Ebil-o's matrix and reset the timer leading to our undoubtedly apocalyptic end!
How do we do that, I hear you ask? Well, we happen to have an anonymous little helper and each week, he or she snail mails us a word search puzzle containing anywhere between 10 to 15 words related to City of Heroes related theme (Ebil-o likes City of Heroes; apparently, it helps him unwind after a long day hard at work planning to get rid of humanity).
Each week a new theme will be passed along and you will need to find the exact number of words you’re being told exists within the block of letters you are given.
Your opportunity to save us all is through a word block located at the bottom of this post.
The goal is to be the first one to find the words based on the theme (without being told what they are), circle them in the word block (using Paint or an equivalent program) and then list them below it.
If you are the first one to answer with the correct words, you win and only then will we be able to input the words into Ebil-o's matrix, thus delaying our impending doom. As a token of our gratitude, we'll give you the "Ebil-o FTL [date]" forum title as well as 1 (one) costume code amongst the following ones:
- Carnival of Shadows Harlequin
- Freakshow Tank Boss
- Paragon Police Department Hardsuit
- Carnival of Shadows Ring Mistress
- Knives of Artemis Lt.
- Praetorian Clockwork
Have fun…but not too much as each week we’re counting on you to save the world!Rules
