Yule time toon for all year round play?

Greetings,

I now have an all year round toon that I want to play as my main toon. Mind you I've been playing said game for 15 months off and on! I have been fishing for a theme that might work for me and nothing seems more unique than an 'Evil Santa Lady'! Only problem is I can't permanently have a Snow Beast pet following me around! That would be awesome if I could get that! I can't forever have the snow ball throwing power, or the ring binding power. If I could have just those two abilities on this toon forever that would be great! Now since I won those gloves, hat, and boots they aren't going to vanish after the Holiday time of the game is over are they?

I wish We could AT LEAST get the Santa Belt if not the whole coat. I'm going to get the magic pack too because I'm going to create a Witch toon to set myself up for next All Hallows Eve (a.k.a. Halloween).

With all that said what do you all think about Halloween and Xmas toons being rolled all year round? You think I'll get tired of my evil Santa Lady? I mean she does have super strength and invulnerability. Would love thoughts and opinions. I've even though of trying to create a Legion of Yule Time Evil Santa Women!

Short answer; no.

Long answer; since they are costume unlocks they are tied to your character, not the 'season'. No, they will remain available all year round.

It might get kinda tiring to try and be Xmassy all year but as long as she's got a decent background to fall on or something besides being a one-trick pony; she should last.

You're out of luck on the temp powers. One of the reasons people still love tham after 6 years is because they are only available during the special events. Being limited keeps them fresh and exciting.

The costumes however are different. We get to keep those once the character unlocks them. I have several characters that make regular use of them. Some are also holiday themed.

I knew a guy on Truimph a few years ago who's villain was themed for holidays on each of his costume slots.

Valentines day, July 4, Halloween, Thanksgiving(I think), and Xmas.

I thought it was a pretty neat idea and he made it so he could play his toon year round to go with the different holidays.

Do they have a Thanksgiving event? I didn't think they did. While the above mentioned is a good idea I'm going to hook up a cool backstory on this ss/inv. villain to the point where it will work for me. I wish I could have gotten ice melee on a brute though. You can only get ice melee on a tank hero side (sigh). It will still work out in the end.

When they first announced the jack-o-lantern helmet with the Halloween event (back whenever that was), I made toon especially for that - how many other toons might just happen to wear such a thing, really? He was something of a techie-themed toon so it didn't get old for me; maybe if I had made him 100% Halloween all the time he might have, but I doubt it. This year I made a black cat toon for Halloween though and I'm still enjoying playing him.

In both cases it doesn't hurt that they play like awesome on toast.
