Seems like a solid concept, my own suggestion for thugs customization, which might fall into Bouncers, would be Gansters, guys in fine suits and such who look like Family enforcers.|

Ninjas: Ninjas (default), Sentai (for heroic MMs) Robots: Robots (default), Androids (humanoid robots akin to Cylons or Praetorian clockwork), Cyborgs (Terminator style endoskeletal bots). Thugs: Thugs (default), Bouncers (in suits), Clowns(?) Demons: Demons (default), Demon variants, Ghosts, Incorporeal essences (balls of fluff). Thugs, Mercs and Ninjas could even have female versions of certain models. What do you think? Any other ideas? |
Also, I love the idea of the Sentai Ninja, but to expand on that, how about a ninja variant that uses things like the Tsoo outfits, a Yakuza type (more guys in suits!), and maybe even add a Middle Eastern model for Hassan Ibn Sabbah assassin types.
Mercs might also benifit from a sort of a SWAT/police officer look for more heroic types, or maybe villains who want to play having a very extensive security network.

Demons -> Elementals (So rocks animated by ice, fire or hellfire as appropriate)
Demons -> Acolytes (Evil wizards in shady robes, with ominous latin chanting as standard)
Robots -> Power-armoured stormtroopers with laser rifles and high-tech weapons (The Assault Bot replacement gets a Heavy IDF backpack to play with)
Robots -> Steampunk Automatons (a la Nemesis)
Zombies -> Mutants (puking, deformed monstrosities with a hyper-evolved brainmutant in place of the lich)
Mercs -> Guerrilas (Headbands, ammo belts and revolutionary slogans)
Mercs -> Stormtroopers (Goggles, gasmasks and sleek body armour)
Thugs -> Agents (Think Crey's PR goons)
Thugs -> Wiseguys (Pinstripes and tommyguns for the Enforcers)
Since MMs can be created in Praetoria, why not Praetorian Police or Rebels as alts for the Mercs and Clockworks as alts for Robots?
I have long wanted female ninjas as alternates. I would also love to see Pirates and Clowns. And many other pets drawn from active mobs in the city, like Carnival, Freaks, CoT ect. . .
I also think the current demons suck, they are way too ugly have poor visual effects and make the most annoying noises. Yes I could turn off the sound, but I would rather have a choice for an alternate form as I do love the powerset.
I would also love to see a Heroic MM counterpart. Call it a "Commander" or "Leader" with Pets from Longbow, Wyvern, PPD or even minor class heroes. Perhaps the Thugs equivalent could draw reformed gang members from the various gangs in Paragon City.
I would love to see a Pro Wrestler or Lucha Libre type MM with Luchadore pets and flashy Pro Wrestler alt forms.
*Sigh* I have lots of wishes for MMs but not many hopes. . . .
