Recluse is Classic

Seriously, every word out of the mouth of Lord Recluse is immediately quote-worthy. When I first saw the guy, I figured he'd be one of those "The world will fall before my evilness. Die, fool!" sorts, but the guy's full of class and assertive confidence! Silly blueside-only dweebs would listen to his propaganda in Grandville and assume he's Darkety McDarkdark, but that's their loss, I suppose.

So hey, here's to Lord Recluse! *Raises eight glasses*

I thought he was going to get whacked by the 18th, but I guess not.

Unlike the Statesman and Sister Psyche, Lord Recluse is an important character.

I remember nothing that he said. I vaguely recall handing him his battered helmet from the future with his severed head inside and telling him to leave me alone or else...

Have you seen his old henchman costumes? Class isn't the word that comes to mind. In fact, it's about two letters too long.

But that is why I thought he was surely going to get whacked too. I saw those helms and thought they were both going to get it.

Admittedly, I am not the best guesser when it comes to this stuff.

Good times. Good times.

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

Compare Recluse to Aeon in the STF:

You shall merely be the first sacrifices on this, the altar of my victory!

It drains super-powers, but instead of simply making them go away like the clumsy spells of the Mu, it transfers them. YES! They said it couldn't be done, but they also said it was foolish to tap a bound demon to power a city, but I did it! I did it! The Web then transfers those stolen energies into a specific individual. Oh, you'll have quite a time stopping Recluse's plans, once he controls the power of every meta-human on Earth! And all because of my meta-human scientific genius! Ah-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-WAAAit a second! If he gets every meta-human ability...
Then he'd get my...
I'd be just..
Uh-oh! You've got to stop him!
To see just how awesome Aeon is, read the souvenir from the Luddite, Brother Hammond's, mission.

Two letters too long?

CLS?

You see him and you want to clear your screen?

Obviously, Lord Recluse was an avid watcher of Stargate SG-1. After hearing Anubis' over-the-top dialog, and Jack O'Neill's reaction to it ("Come on, who talks like that???"), he made a conscious decision to never be that kind of villain.

All hail Lord Recluse!

A clear indication of his genre savvy. He only uses this propaganda on his own citizens!

More like you handed him his helmet and he was like:

"lol cool, want a promotion?"


Recluse don't give a ****.

Recluse and the Patrons were always my favorite characters in this game.

IDGAF about the Phalanx.

You mean the costumes that the Arachnos minions wore before he took over? Yeah, those outfits sucked. I'm glad someone fixed those.

And I was like, "Nope. You're a worthless hump and your islands are run-down, ruinous crapholes. I'm outta here." Then I slapped him a couple of times for good measure and left.

I've always loved Recluse. That's why I don't play villain side a lot. My characters don't live up to his awesomeness. Statesman always bugged me a little though, so I'm glad Positron is in charge now. Reading the Freedom Phalanx novel it seemed like he always should have been in charge to begin with.

Don't count your guess out just yet; you may actually be right before too long. Having read the teaser blurb for SSA2, apparently the villain-side missions have you working with a villain group gunning to rival Arachnos' power.
