Character Concepts you always thought of and never used. (Or alts you've deleted or shelved)

There was The VR Kid, my ill-fated BS/SD Scrapper. A young hero who had the entirety of a virtual reality hack-and-slash RPG accidentally downloaded into his brain, granting him years worth of compiled combat data with the unfortunate side-effect of making his grip on reality...loose. Much 4th Wall humor was to ensue, but I never got into the sword-and-board combo.

One who I plan to revive once /Poison is available for Corruptors was Blood Plague, a man who's mutation turned his blood into a potent virus. The applications of said virus are vast, but before he learned to harness it it ate the skin right off of him. The pain drove him insane, leaving him "elightened" and seeking to "share the wonders of pain with the world". Origionally he was a Zombie/Pain MM, to represent the infected people he controlled. Later he was remade as a /Posion, but still tehe Zombies were too magical-looking to fit the concept. I think I'm going to make him a Dark/Poison Corruptor and of course color all his powers blood red.

One who has sat in my character list for entirely too long is Captain Copyright, who may-or-may-not be the last son of a dead alien race, and may-or-may-not have an allergic reaction to green rocks. His blue and red spandex outfit is completely origional, as it has a large C on the chest. Who were you thinking of?

Then there was a character I never got to making because I could never find a suitable name. A teenage girl who was born with incredable magic potential, who could command the power of hellfire and call forth demons. Unfortunately, she never recieved training to harness this power, and the vile whispers of the demons became too much for her to bear. Her mind snapped, and now she and her "friends" are a threat to everyone, especially herself. She was to be a Demon/Thermal MM, I wanted something with "Hex" in the name and never found anything that got the right feel to it. If I could have made ti just "Hex" I would have been happy, but names liek that are impossible to get nowadays.


The off-beat space pirate...Capt. Stormrider (50+3 Elec/Storm Science Corruptor)
The mysterious Djinn...Emerald Dervish (50+1 DB/DA Magic Stalker)
The psychotic inventor...Dollmaster (50 Bot/FF Tech Mastermind)

Virtue Forever.

Ohh Emm Gee, let me see if I can hit a few of the high(low) points. Click on the images to see the larger versions...if you have the nerve.

Jim Earl was a trailer-livin good ol' boy who wanted to be a hero to his son. After a few too many beers, and falling asleep in front of WAY too many rented chop-socky ninja movies, he put on his black sweat pants and red tennis shoes, his old karate gi from the free lesson he took a few years ago (sleeves cut off, of course) complete with the white belt, his bright red CAT Diesel hat (put on backwards) and the katana he bought at the flea market, which he previously used as a wedge to keep his closet door closed. He burst onto the scene with a confident, "Back off, folks! Ah'm a ninjer!"



He was an old man, bitter and alone. His combover was the most colorful thing about him...until... He found an ornately carved box in a back corner of an antique shop. When he opened the box, it contained an enormously expensive hand made hairpiece. It was as if it was calling to him. He HAD to have it. Purchasing the box (and hairpiece), he took it home and put on the hairpiece. Suddenly, the hairpiece turned blood red and glowed with an uneartly energy. The old man found he could control and generate fire from his body. Now...they would all be sorry...all those who ignored him or made fun of him over the years. Now there would be...HELL TOUPE'! (The character still exists, parked redside.)



The kid was a comic geek and general failure at having any type of social life. He was also as absent minded as the day is long and generally totally immune to any form of common sense. One day, he had just bought a candy bar at a local convenience store. His mind being elsewhere, he didn't even care what brand he got. He opened it and took a bite without thinking, as he looked at the contents of the store's magazine rack. Just as he swallowed the first bite of chocolate, an armed man burst into the store. As the man confronted the clerk and demanded money, the kid's adrenaline hit the ceiling and his latent mutation kicked in. (Powersets not decided on. You choose.) He quickly and almost effortlessly subdued the armed robber. Realizing the candy bar that gave him his powers must have been magic (told you he had no common sense), he was overjoyed. He decided to take his hero name from the candy bar which had given him his powers, so whoever enchanted it would know who he was and come for him, to give him his additional training and such. He went right down to Hero Registration and became the newest hero in Paragon City. He was...spunoW! (Yeah, he was holding a regular Mounds bar upside down and didn't realize it.)

There are more, but I have to stop for now. Be thankful of your good fortune.

Absolutely BRILLIANT. Haha.

I really want to have my homage at some point, just not too enthused about doing her up proper as an Inv/SS when I have my broot.
As a follow up, I found the urge to have a Golden Age hero was too much. I deleted Raizo Tanaka and went ahead and re-created her as an Inv/SS. I'm feeling much better about her thanks to the initial random color generator giving me a striking base color which lead to her new name:



So if you want 'Miss Thunderstrike' or 'Raizo Tanaka', they're all yours. And if you could use a lowbie tank on your team, send me a tell. I've heard good things about Inv tanks!


Blood Widow Ricki * Tide Shifter * T-34 * Opposite Reaction * Shaolin Midnight * ChernobylCheerleader

Well, here comes part two. Click on the thumbnail pics to enlarge.

Imagine Homer Simpson getting super powers from working at the nuclear power plant and you'd pretty much have...ATOMIC DENSITY.




The search for gender equality produced...WOMANTICORE.




A geeky, smart-alecky kid suddenly finds himself with super powers. He gets several different costumes to emulate his favorite heroes/groups. In order to have "THE BEST SUPERHERO NAME EVER(tm)" he becomes Super Mega Ultra Guy, but those who know him call him...SMUG.

I once had an idea for a zombie/dark or demon/thermal mastermind who was just a guy in a tie-die shirt (baggy with psyche pattern applied) who'd accidentally picked up a cursed amulet that summoned zombies/demons to 'protect' him, which pretty much slaughtered everything around him. He was a pacifist and just sort of ran around horrified trying to get them to stop.

  • Well there was the French Brute.
    A villain with a vendetta for the low-level defender Minionette, who somehow managed to defeat him on her own. He'll eventually be in a short AE arc. He's mostly based around a few battlecries and simple theme:

    "I'll tear you apart like a baguette!"
    "Time for some filet Minionette!"
    "I'll kill you! I'll slaughter you! I'll commit (French word that sounds like murder) all over you!"

    Yeah, his understanding of the French language and culture are seriously lacking. You can damn well bet he'll be wearing a stripy shirt and a beret.

  • And then there's Jonathan Grahilah aka, the Mana Thief.
    An Energy/kinetic corruptor who's even got a bit of a history behind him and a minor reputation as a teen idol. With website.
    I love the costume but I've already got one corruptor which I'm working on and he hasn't really developed have much of a personality in all the times he's been brought back so...he's been locked up in the Zig for over a year now!

  • And the good Lady Reprimand.
    A stern and unyielding archivist who decided to use an uncatalogued pair of medieval, magical skyglasses to take to the air and fight crime.
