Unlocking Capes/Auras using Merits

Is unlocking capes and/or auras using Astral/Empyrean merits account wide?

No, it's only for a single character. The purchase in the Paragon Market, though, is account wide and works into the Character Creator (the other, on the other hand, can't be used until you enter the game on the character).

We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.

Thanks for the info. I knew buying it on the market was account wide, but if I wasn't sure about the merit purchases. I hate to spend a months worth of points on something that you can get in-game for free, but having capes and auras from the get-go rather than having to wait until 20 and 30 would be nice.

iirc it only costs 160 pts for the cape unlock, or 320 pts for both permanent cape and aura unlocks, definitely worth it IMO
