If ya want me in, I can submit the costume code whenever ya like.
July 4th is a ways off before the contest ends. I know that's a long time, but I want to be sure I at least *try* to be there in-game on each server to accept submissions and I still haven't even started the actual writing of the arcs yet... then there's real life, work, friends, family, other CoH stuff...

Plus this gives time to those who don't frequent the boards like I used to not do for years.

PEACE! (and happy gaming...)

So, wait, you're arranging personal meetings with the characters? Talk about going the extra mile

Nice to see a Triumph submission. Thanx!

And not arranging personal meetings with the characters, per say...
I'm stopping by a different server each week with the A/Envasion team... so, trying to get some submissions while I'm there visiting. If there will be more than that... I'm not sure of it yet.

Oh, wait, is that what you were doing yesterday? I spoke with Zamuel about that - kept trying to distract him all day, but he said he was doing an "AEnvasion of Pinnacle"

Okay, I played "Dark as Midnight" with my built-expressly-for-AE Controller Avatari. (Get it? Avatar + Atari? I crack myself up.) She was only level 11 when I started so she got her behind handed to her repeatedly, but no one can claim I shrink from challenges! Although I hated the map with the fog (I know why you chose it, but ugh), I liked the writing, so I'll throw in a couple of my characters. Since Virtue is already well-represented, I'll use my two 50s from Guardian.

My most recent 50 is also my second-oldest character and my namesake: Ironik. The character is actually the second one to hold the name, an in-game explanation for why I changed him from an Invincible/Super Strength Tank (beta) to a Martial Arts/Regeneration Scrapper (live). He has a much longer origin story than the in-game bio, but it hits the highlights.

Name: Ironik
Server: Guardian
Alignment: Hero
Motivation: Trying to atone for past mistakes, helps out all he can
Archetype: Scrapper
Powersets: Martial Arts / Regeneration
Origin: Technology




One of my favorite characters is my Electric/Electric/Electric Brute, Future Shock. I not only like how the powerset plays, I also really like how he looks. It was the first time I made a character utilizing negative space as the costume design.

Name: Future Shock
Server: Guardian
Alignment: Villain
Motivation: Insane; Doling out pain to try and quench his own. Terminator-esque in behavior.
Archetype: Brute
Powersets: Electric / Electric
Origin: Technology

Quick question: Are we looking for one submission per player?

Can submit as many as ya want... only 1 of your characters can possibly win tho.

Thanx for trying "Black as Midnight" what you did Ironik... ironically (har har), went thru and made about 12 text changes after the Tip Writing thread. I obviously didn't scrutinize myself enough and was hoping to update it before I contradicted myself. Mission FAIL! Oh well, always room for improvement and I'm learning... I'm learning...

Yea, the arc is really geared for those actually in that level range (22-27+) WITH inspirations on the final map. Both EBs(Bosses) are alone and should present a moderate challenge. There should also be enough enemies inbetween to resupply Inspirations between the two. I've played it with every AT so I know some will struggle slightly more than others... but it's the best balance I found.

I also must say since Guardian is my home... I believe I've teamed with Future Shock before and that's a very nice character.

I really want noteriety to be the drive and focus of this, but if prizes are what it takes to entice more participants ( risk vs reward? O.O <--j/k o.O--> no problem with having a prize ), I'm all for it.

Well, we'll see how it goes... I'm wrapping up the last of my builds (Merits and drops will handle the rest)... we'll see what I have come July.

Here's my Submission! Lvl 50 Dark/Sheild Scrapper from Infinity called Wounded Dark!
He is an RP character.



Kevin Scott was just your average citizen in Paragon, till a large group of Skulls moved into his neighbourhood and started roughing up the people there. Concerned for the safty of his wife, he decided to take matters into his own hands and looked into various forms of magic. One night the two of them were out late and a small portion of the Skulls gang decided to mug them. Kevin tried his best to play the hero, but he didn't know how to use the magic properly. Now his wife is dead, and he's stuck with powers he doesn't fully understand.

Ok, let's see if this works. I figure I'd offer up an alternate villain choice for Virtue. Or Rogue choice, as the case may be.




Alias: Toy Dispenser
Alignment: Rogue
Server: Virtue
Archetype: Mastermind/Blaster
Power Sets: Bots/FF/Mu or Elec/EM/Elec
Origin: Technology (With a fair bit of magic tacked on)

Bio: Droid Control Prototype Unit 2 was concieved as a pair of circuit boards and several pieces of scrap metal that survived Unit 1's only trial run. Several million dollars and a few months later and Unit 2 was ready for testing. The only problem was finding a suitable facility that would test both Unit 2's abilities and new AI. Eventually it was decided that Unit 2's tremendous processing power and its ability to link with and control most military hardware would be best tested in the prison known as the Zig.

Unit 2 spent one uneventful month, or as uneventful as handling hundreds of formerly super powered villains can be, before Lord Recluse decided the time was nigh for the Destined ones to come forth. Unit 2 was co-ordinating the air defense systems when an Arachnos spy managed to infect it with a powerful virus. This virus interacted with Unit 2's AI and created a new entity. Calling itself Toy Dispenser, Unit 2 escaped from the Zig, ready to start life anew as a villain of the Rogue Isles.

Additional information can be provided if necessary. Also, if you end up without anyone from Protector, I have a couple 50s there I can dig up. But yeah, this looks interesting and I've always been a fan of inter-connectedness.

Edit: I forgot to add that either of those two costumes up there would work fine. It's just one is more serious than the other, but the first is more true to the character.


Statesman said let there be heroes, and there were heroes.

Lord Recluse said let there be villains, and there were villains.

NCsoft said let there be nothing, and there was nothing.

I just think it'd be cool to see something like this. A collection of Heroes and Villains from all servers here and there with their own unknown objectives during story arcs. And for those that read the details... it'll be like "Whoa, this chump went through a lot of work to make it feel like a bigger world"...

I'd appreciate it all who win would do this, but I'm willing to analyze the heck out of pics and do my best to create a duplicate. Actual Costume File details will help out tremendously.

To expand on this, you may also want to use costume files where people provide them to get a better look at the character on your own machine even before you announce any winners. It's sometimes easier to see a costume if you load it on your machine and look at it from all sides, as opposed to the sometimes cheating pics we provide.

And I say this as the guy with the most cheating pic

Just seen this thread and thought i'd add my main, Robot H3 NRi. Spines/Regen scrapper hero on Union. Dunno how many people have said to me, 'A Spines Robot? Can't imagine how that'd look...'

Kinda looks like this
