Who is this new character? Is he a Hero or a Villain? We’ll reveal the secrets during tomorrow’s NYCC City of Heroes Going Rogue panel.
There's a lot of specualtion this is Tin Mage, referenced in the Omega Team time capsule and in the I19 page.

Technically, I think it must be some kind of "Tin Mage 2.0", based on the blueprints from the time capsule.

And he/it looks real good!

Oooooooo. I love the eyes.

Me.

I know, I know, an unusual drop system, but when I got that free year of the game back at the last Hero-Con, it included some unusual fine print. Apparently I'm a Strike Force boss now. If you want to do this, let me know. I'm usually home around 9 PM. My room mate collects weapons, so we could probably figure something out. She has a katana, some escrima sticks, gloves, boxing supplies, and a few knives. I have a dagger myself, but I think it's only fair that I get that, ya know?

It's not too open of an area, but we can work with it. Try not to knock over the DVDs, though. My other room mate just brought them in.

Oh, and there are a lot of pets in the house. Please don't use them as summons. Most of them aren't trained.

Hit me up. We'll rock this.

Whoever that person is, I'll happily assist in the ritual if I can have it too!

WANT.

One thing I've noticed is how the RWZ is becoming less of a "War Zone" and more of a "generic co-op zone", simply because it's the only co-op zone in the game besides Cimerora and Pocket D. Heck, there's an Architect Entertainment there (not to beet a dead horse, just sayin').

IMPO devs, it's time to create a new co-op zone or re-purpose another existing zone into a co-op zone.

From the looks of the characters in the aura, mastermind's demons.

-Passes mastermind trap-

I like the look of him. I'm not yet excited about the incarnate content at all, but I know a lot of people out there have been waiting for something like this. He looks funky.

Technically yes, but Citadel had to be rebuilt after the Rikti War, but he's still called Citadel.

Ooh, I was expecting him to be blue - no idea why


EDIT: This is also another example of how awesome the game is - a contact who's a robot in a tall hat and tux doesn't seem weird

He looks cool but kind of like a Tin Pilgrim.

What they should do is release an expansion with, say, 4 new zones in it, and then make them co-op.
Maybe they could make it so the new palce was hostile to both the blue and the red sides, so we'd have to go there and do co-op content to fight them?

1. First you steal the Magic Super Booster (assuming you still don't have it, if this is false skip to Step 2.
2. Kidnap a Customer Service rep and force him to tell you your NCSoft Master Account Login Name and Password. (If you do know this information, skip to step 3.)
3. Kidnap Jay.
4. Sacrifice Jay to Lughebu (If you are an atheist, you can just hold him for ransom.)

(Caution: Such extreme measures MAY get your account suspended. I recommend you just ask nicely!)

I think it's very cool how Tin Mage, who was part of a team sent to another dimension to help stop an invasion, is now organizing teams to go to another dimesnion to stop an invasion - it has a nice progression and flow to it.

The Shadow Shard comes to mind as a candidate for that. You could even set up a multifaction system like Praetoria:



A Heroic faction that concentrates on rescuing and protecting the poor humans trapped there, and on researching the place. Much like the existing missions, but hopefully better made.

A Vigilante faction that is focused on keeping Rularuu from breaking out and searching for a way to destroy him, even if people in the crossfire suffer. Keep in mind that if the theory that the Shard IS Rularuu is true, success at killing him would probably kill everyone there along with him.

A Rogue faction that seeks to exploit the Shard for their own profit, but is willing to help against Rularuu since he'd get in the way, or because the other factions pay them.

A Villain faction that seeks to restore Rularuu and break him loose in return for sharing in his power, even if it turns them into inhuman abominations (assuming they aren't already) and destroys humanity. The sell-your-soul faction.
