I have a crush on Jonathan Frakes, and that translates to Eiko having a crush on Jimmy Temblor. Being a villain, she thinks the solution is to kill Fusionette, then Jimmy will be hers.

So my only question is..........is Lady Jane - Fusionettes mother?
They both exhibit the same lemming style battle choices.

@Doctor Gemini
Arc #271637 - Welcome to M.A.G.I. - An alternative first story arc for magic origin heroes. At Hero Registration you heard the jokes about Azuria always losing things. When she loses the entire M.A.G.I. vault, you are chosen to find it.

But then I never really understood the appeal of Shipping or Die For Our Ship. |
This next line will be my revenge for linking to TVTropes.
You've been warned!!!!!!
Wait, there's incestuous necrophiliac MK fanfic out there? Did not need to know that.
Muahahahahah!!!!!!

I like the pairing, personality-wise they seem like a good match and they make a nice couple. It also helps that I think with both of them the devs did a good job of matching their personalities to their powers.|

I say FEH to all this Statesman/Tremblor slash yaoi!
This thread is now about BROMANCE~!
Let us celebrate the original CoH bromance: Positron and Synapse!
TOTALLY MANLY!!!!
Positron: "There are no bugs [in City of Heroes], just varying degrees of features."
I love this thread. Tenderly and sincerely.
More Statesman/Faultline! Wait... shipping names! Statesline!

Synapse isn't manly. He's a closet emo.|

He tried cutting himself once, and nearly sawed his arm off before he could stop.

My first mission with her, I was one a blaster, and I was able to basically shoot things before she could see them, and then when they took few steps WHAM! double blaster, double barreled beatdown!
My next time was on a tank, which meant I was able to keep everything taunted AND she provided some MUCH needed additional firepower to compliment my tanker's dismal damage output.
The there was the time I was on a scrapper. ... Poor girl was struggling to keep up with my scrapperlock.

I remember doing the Maria arc, I died, and while I was on the ground, Statesman flew around the entire room (it was a big room by the way) and cleared it, it would be awesome, except for the fact it made me feel weak, all I did was hit something, and he would fly over to it and deliver a Knockout Blow straight to it's face, knocking it all the way back into Praetoria.

Baby Statesline
Aww, he has Jim's 6 pack and Statesman's arrogancy...wait, he was born with his powers! We can officially call him BNY a mutant.

How do we know he has one? Has anyone ever seen him topless?

I think his arrogance stems from his Half-Mask-Is-It-A-Mask?-I-Don't-Know compressing his brain. Infact, that's probably the reason he gets curb stomped a lot.
"Blessed with godly powers! CURSED with a stupid mask-thing!"
I was doing some playthroughs of City of Heroes. Now they will serve as memories of a better time ...

I'll pay 20,000,000 Inf for a banner shipping Statesman and Faultline to use as my sig. Something romantic and sweet like this.

Somehow this seems appropriate. And creepy.

I'm not talking about the dev.
The Character has always been portrayed as an arrogant jerk.
You are correct: Statesman is pretty much a jerk in the comics elsewhere, while in the backstory to the game, he is an inspirational and selfless leader. In the backstory, 1,000 heroes willingly follow Statesman to almost certain death (800 die) in the Alpha Gambit so that the Omega Team could enter the portals and disable them. The arrogant Statesman of the comics could not inspire anyone to follow him anywhere.
Where have you gone, Troy Hickman, a nation turns its lonely eyes to you...
"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"
"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."
