I would love to have Void Hunters for my Warshade.

Come to think of it, that seems a natural fit.

If you could create a new Lore Powerset, what would you make? Personally, I'd like to see the Cabal Witches from Croatoa as allies... |

hmm...PPD perhaps? Don't think they're an option yet. One branch could be the ones that have Ghosts, Equalizers, etc and the other branch could be the Awakened.

I would just like the option to turn off the ghostly transparency effects.

Yeah I hate the Ghostly effects too.
Besides, how exactly am I supposed to have essence of Robot?
Just giving me a robot would be alot easier.

Devouring Earth and Carnival of Light.
I do like the Carnival of Shadows and they'll probably be the first Lore ability I make, but the Carnival of Light are a very cool mirror. And have cooler outfits, especially for the higher up Lts. and Bosses. Plus I'd rather be able to summon good guys than villains with my Hero Illusionist >> (plus I wouldn't be stuck with Strongmen in most of the abilities)
And the Devouring Earth... I just think they're cool. Plus it'd be nice to have some deathspores stunning and holding things that *weren't* me.
Also Arachnos with an option for Bane Spider Executioners instead of Toxic Tarantulas
The ghostly effect is part of the story - they are from the Well if I'm not mistaken.

And I have a hold power that's got the power of a Basilisk's Gaze, but enemies don't turn grey and stony when I hold them.
Moreover, as I understand it, the ghostly effect was only added after players objected to the original Lore choices - as in "why am I summoning Praetorians?" Now that we have choices that aren't Praetorians, it would be nice to have a hero summon non-ghostly Longbow, for instance.
Luddites and Vahzilok. Ludds already have the support type pet that heals and gives a fort, maybe rename it to be different from seers. Give Vahz a mort support pet..that can REZ you, if you die! How run would that be? As well as spitting on baddies too.
KoA lore pets just to be able to cover a map in caltrops.
I personally don't mind the aura- I think it's visually helpful, especially when people are summoning their Warworks on Incarnate trials, and more recently I've caught the bug of people summoning their Cimerorans on ITF's, but if I weren't doing the same they would confuse the hell out of me-- Since I know what to look for though, I'd call the "ghostly aura" nothing if not helpful, heh.
All of the existing Mastermind pets.
Where to find me after the end:
The Secret World - Arcadia - Shinzo
Rift - Faeblight - Bloodspeaker
LotRO - Gladden - Aranelion
STO - Holodeck - @Captain_Thiraas
Obviously, I don't care about NCSoft's forum rules, now.

We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...

This. So very much this. It'd give me a reason to actually get my bots mastermind to 50 so I can have an even bigger robot army.

Over the lifetime of this game, I've probably spent more time earning, buying, and crafting IOs than I have working on Incarnate powers. Yet nobody ever tells me my character concepts should include being an inventor and a savvy marketeer, or that I should incorporate a connection to Positron when I equip his Blast, or similarly silly things.|

The lore behind Incarnate powers has been rather more intrusive, but there's no compelling reason it must always be so. Why can't my Incarnate powers grant me greater influence among my allies, to call on them at need? Or the power to command my enemies? Why do I have to summon ghosts? Leave in the ghostly aura as an option, the default option even. It fits some characters perfectly. It would be nice to also have the option for corporeal Lore summons.
Now, where did that stopping point go...?
Seriously, there are some good ideas here, but eventially everyone could chime in with what is cool and what isn't. They should have just made one basic Essence and gave us the option of picking any NPC. Now there is a problem of what powers to give them... I dont even want to touch with that- unless the just put out generic +def is 5%, dam rez is %10, de-debuff 7% etc. and let us mix and match...LOL!

I want the option.
My story says that my Incarnate powers are so cool and Incarnate Charisma rolls so great that Longbow/Arachnos/Praetorians/Soldiers of Rularuu were impressed enough to follow me into battle.
Someone else's story may be that they broke into a Warworks warehouse, hacked their programming and hijacked some for themselves.
I'd rather powers give people the option to tell their own stories. More customization is always better than none.

I'd like one which uses the doppelganger tech to summon copies of myself. I'm fine with the copies having preset powers. :3
