"Turning to Superhero news here on Paragon Channel 5 News, the heroine Flambeaux was found dead in her apartment earlier today. While evidence suggests that it was a genetic heart defect, 500,000 heroes have come forward as claiming they are to blame in her death. Investigations are ongoing."

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

I'd gladly give up Goliath Bird Eater if he could become an NPC, but they've already got their poster child for villains turned good in Desdemona.
And in fairness, she does look slightly better than GBE in hotpants.

Isn't trying to reform a villain partly the reason why there's an openning in the Freedom Phallanx in the first place? |

Unless you write new content, and replace the level 40-50 tip missions, not eligible. By level 41+, she's gone full-blown villain.

She's not a very good villain, though, is she? Maybe she gives up and goes back to Paragon. I know I wouldn't mind her out of the Rogue Isles.

When you hit reply, the default title just copies the thread title unless you customize it. Beastyle changed the thread title, then had to go through and change everyone's post titles as well to display the correct information.

Edit: How could I forget, Desperate Guy for the Freedom Phalanx.
It's true. This game is NOT rocket surgery. - BillZBubba
I hope they make a replacement that varies the group a bit better. If you include BaB, (which they do for the LRSF) The team has 3 tanks, three defenders, a controller and a blapper. With the new archetypes and the open archetypes, I hope they consider adding in something different. I'd like to see a kheldian, dominator, corruptor, or heck- even a long ranged blaster.
Oh, and I'd hope to see a bit more diversity. The team has 6 'guys,' and 6 caucasians. Mix it up a little. A Latina, or someone of Middle Eastern, or East Asian descent. (But only if they can write these characters as people, not stereotypes) Somebody who brings a new perspective to the team. Hey, an alien would be cool. An alien could be used to bounce the whole developing/deepening understanding of how aliens relate to paragon city, especially with the rikti revelations in mind. It could be used to differentiate between the good, bad and grey areas of those fighting against alien outsiders.
I can't believe that no one has nominated War Witch yet.

B'Nadek, aka Benjamin Decker from Levantera's arc as a Mind/Psi Dominator.
The guy had the strength of will to resist the Rikti Group Mind to save his brother. I think he has potential.

See, while most people were thinking about what sort of character would be cool to have in the Freedom Phalanx, I was thinking about what the nastiest sort of powerset combination I would want to put into the LRSF.

[Guide to Defense] [Scrapper Secondaries Comparison] [Archetype Popularity Analysis]
In one little corner of the universe, there's nothing more irritating than a misfile...
(Please support the best webcomic about a cosmic universal realignment by impaired angelic interference resulting in identity crisis angst. Or I release the pigmy water thieves.)
With two active VIP accounts, I wonder if I get to nominate one character from each? Even if I do, it'll be hard to narrow down my choices. So many alts....
But taking a look at things, I can't help but think that it's not the powers that are important here. It's the morality of the character that's going to be important. Even at the end, Statesman refused to kill. He stood strong by his morals. Without him, the FP needs someone with the same moral strength, or they risk sliding down a far darker path.
They also need someone to replace Statesman's experience. They may not find someone as experienced as he was, but they do need someone that's been through hell and back, so to speak. Someone that can keep their focus and deal with whatever's thrown at them, no matter what it is.
Perhaps my choice isn't all that difficult after all.
