So, looking on some of my "unused servers"

Man, I have a ton of character concepts that I abandoned. Here's a few:

Bloody Heart - Freedom, Level 1 Blaster, 2324 days off
Probably a reserved name for something, but I love the name. I'm sure I will eventually get to it, sometime in the long away future. Could go 18 ways on the concept.

King of the Thugs - Freedom, Level 2 MM (thugs, obviously), 1781 days off
Kind of a trollish kind of concept. Sounds generic, but I really did have a decent backstory about the political infighting in a street gang, but I can't find it now.

Programmable Machine - Freedom, Level 4 Scrapper, 868 days offline
1950s machine turned hero. Would work great now, just would have to work in the much in improved options for techy costumes.

Fountain of Youth - Freedom, Level 12 Scrapper, 869 offline
My concept was a character that IS the fountain of youth. Dark melee, sucks souls, stays eternally young. Had a great vibe back when I made him. I LOVE his costume, maybe I'll upload a pic. It is just ragged clothes on top of a sunburned, youthful body, with blackened hands and feet, but still feels unique and fresh even after years away.

Prey Bites Back - Freedom, Level 37 Night Widow, 870 offline
A male night widow. Spiders have a nice habit of cannibalizing the smaller, weaker male members of the species, and I had a feeling that the night widows of Arachnos would be similarly harsh. This character survived that.

Lumbermill - Freedom, Level 1 Crab, 892 offline
An arachnos crab spider that works part-time as a mill. Yes, that was my concept. I saw spider crab backpack and thought: that could cut trees!

Heart's Thanks- Freedom, Level 1 Scrapper, 1083 offline
This guy looks like a mobster. Suit, cigar, etc. But he's the badass with a hard of gold that donates time at the burn wing of the children's hospital. I think he was supposed to have cancer, but I can't remember exactly.

Disco Doctor- Freedom, Level 1 Defender, 1775 offline (look ma, it's almost Independence Day!)
Combine an afro with scrubs, throw in some dance moves, and you have the disco doctor. He's a tribute to main character, who has undergone many changes in concept throughout the years, but seems to like the look.

Hun - Liberty, Level 2 Blaster, 860 offline
Hun was one of the first female characters I ever made. She was equal parts amazon warrior and southern lady, if you can combine the two. Sure, I didn't make it far, but it was a major milestone for me.

Let's Do Our Warmup - Liberty, Level 1 Corrupter, 2110 offline
Bright purple jump-suit, check. Annoying yelling, check. Zombie? Check. He's the exercise zombie, and he wants you to PERK IT UP.

Bashin' Rock- Protector, Level 4 tanker, 2110 offline
He bashes people with rocks. He is a rock. He's the bashin' rock.

Autoshot- Protector, Level 14 Blaster, 1890 offline
He's loud and obnoxious. He is an action-movie star fit to the City of universe. One of the first characters I every tried to roleplay, though he was annoying to play at the time.

Patched Up Man -Protector, Level 1 Tanker, 2466 offline
He's the Salvation's Army version of a hero. Hand made, hand me down, worn out, patched up, and still fighting. Looking at his costume, I am amazed. At one level, it looks like a badly put together old costume. But then I realize: IT'S ASYMMETRICAL!! I honestly don't know how I did it with the options at the time, but he has an electron outfit for a chest, a left arm made of rock, a metallic right arm, and patchwork pants. Even for an old costume, I was still amazed at just how much potential the character creator has.

And now for a "few" other characters with a little less to their names:

Overall, I collectively have over hundred thousand days logged off, average approx level 4 (mode is 2), and my slots on every server except Exalted and the Euro-servers are completely filled. To say I'm an altoholic would be an understatement, though I have managed a few 50s (7, I believe).

Anyway, does anyone else have characters they've abandoned that they still remember fondly?

*grins*

Lessee...

Trouble Magnet (Justice) - The name gives you an idea of the concept. Now that I think of it, she was the en/en blaster precursor of a far more fun character, my mind/FF controller, Cluster Flux.

Distraction (Liberty) - Extremely tall, extremely stacked, strapless black dress with thigh high boots and the battle cry "MADE YOU LOOK!" (If you've seen my TIME TO START video, she's the redhead dancing in the black dress.)

Rabid Spoo (Triumph) - Ever seen BABYLON 5? He's short, squat, bright blue, ONLY moves at a walk (kid you not - he has no travel powers and even for a "huge" body, he moves slower than molasses in January), and his battle cry was *sigh*. He drove his teammates insane, but they LOVED the concept. (He was also the star of my TIME TO START video.)

Up until a month ago, I had 4 under-appreciated characters but I found a use for them as AE mules collecting tickets on really simple non-exploitable missions.

It was fun to bring them to life again and re-discover what motivated me to create them in the first place. Now, once a week or so, I run each one through the AE missions; have a bit of relaxing fun and bank 300-500 tickets per session.
