Who Is Going Down With Galaxy

With the relaunch of the game I thought I'd make a fresh start for myself and dump all current leveling alts and move all but two 50s to a tertiary server (the two 50s will act as representatives of the "old guard" of Heroes/Villains. The Obi Wan Kenobis, if you will).

In addition to all that, my current main MA/SR Scrapper Daemodand will take a career ending injury in the Galaxy City Incident and live forever in the Galaxy City Echo in an unending loop of his early career when he first came to Paragon (reunited with the deceased love of his life Ms. Bush Ranger). His mantle to be taken up by his daughter when Staff Melee gets released. Staff/SR...mmmmmm. Um, what were we talking about? Oh, yes, what everyone is doing with their lineup of characters (if anything) when Freedom launches.

So the question will must be asked:

Who is going down with Galaxy City?

I've always roleplayed that Shadow Guardinal has a condo in Galaxy City. I'm planning to have her be missing and seriously injured... maybe a classic memory loss scenario... not sure yet but not death.

My current main was midwifed into herodom by Galaxy City...he's going to die defending her and (via server transfer and rerolling) rise from the ashes reborn as a new AT. (Which will cannibalize his off server "corpse" for goodies as he re-levels up.)

So does Captain Photon, but fortunately he works in Steel Canyon. He's gonna be ticked about his Zoids collection, though, I tell you what.

yes, and some near Salamanca, and New York City, and even a bit over by Chicago. (those meteors hit hard!)

I've considered starting fresh, although if I do it will likely be with 2 new characters on the VIP server. There are a few on virtue that I plan to get rid of, either by straight deletion or server transfers, so that I can roll something new. Among these would be Planet Smasher, Karma Kincaid, Zero for Hire, Grim Fandango, Sunrazer, Warrior Widow, Incorruptible, and Galvanized. Maybe a few others, but at some point they just need to go if you're not enjoying them.


They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!

My one character who could be said to be emotionally attached to Galaxy City is a guy who thinks that his superhero career is actually a lucid dream. He'll probably shrug and figure that "those things happen in dreams" just like zombie invasions and a lot of other weird @#$%.

The devastation isn't quite as bad as you might expect, though there's some hand-waving about "reconstruction" to explain that away.

I start all my Hero characters in Galaxy City. They all call it home. But now I guess I'll have to run the tutorial to start them in Galaxy, or maybe just roll Villains from now on. That sounds like a plan.

Also: Six years of casual play begins to look an awful lot like one year of hardcore play.

From what I've heard from red side beta testers, the new arcs are pretty evil

I haven't ever started a hero in Galaxy City even when I made a warshade so I guess none of my toons will be going down with Galaxy.

I personally won't, but that's because I have only villains; to most, the day Galaxy City was destroyed was a life changing experience, to them it was Tuesday. Though you may want to ask Steelclaw.

All of my heroes have started in Galaxy. But none of them live there.

I'm not sure most of my heroes would live in any part of the city proper. Most of them effectively have no secret/civilian identity, and would basically "live" in their base/lair, which they wouldn't locate in a densely populated area. The ones that do have more normal homes live in Steel Canyon or Peregrine Island.

That would actually make for a good mid-level red side Trial.
