Praetorian Epic Archetypes

I rather like the idea of having Praetorian Epics, and even have on thought up, but I don't know what the second one should be...Post ideas if you have 'em.

Name: Leader, Praetor...
Function: Buffs and Minions
Damage: Low
Health: Low
Primary: Command (Would have a single pistol as a weapon and would have many team-wide buffs)
Secondary: Support (One summon, Minion upgrades, and minor healing)

The summon gives one minion every six levels, ending at 36.
In the powers tab, you would have another tab below it to customize the minions in a much limited fashion (no auras, capes, fancy stuff) including powers (Combat only, each minion set would be a mix between melee and ranged), though still control body type and some size parameters (nothing above 6? Feet). Added body types.
Minions would act like basic MasterMind pets, are are the one that needs to heal and buff them.

I know this could be exploited to troll people, but I like the idea of having minions you make yourself and having to babysit them more than MM Henchmen.


Name: Seer, Tracker...
Function: Debuff and Support
Damage: Medium
Health: Medium
Primary: Psionic Barrage
Secondary: Psionic Support

This AT would have the first costume have a similar model to the Seers that you see on the streets of Nova Praetora and would have inherent flight.

Bwah?

I... am not sure I follow any of that.

Same here. I look and see "Mastermind" and "Defender/Corruptor."

Plus, of course, the thing that makes an Epic AT is the storyline they're tied to - even craptastic rushed ones like the VEAT arcs.

Which makes it all the more sad that they are significantly more fun than the tedious and poorly written Kheldian arcs!
