Heather "Storm Angyl" Hoffman was young SG leader on Protector who succumbed to complications brought about by cancer.

We had a special tanker event held in her name during our herolympics some years ago.

I will add details and pictures later as I track them down.

As mentioned earlier, @Salsakitten, but with first letter capitalized. She was married to @Thorgar and was formerly known as @Rowankitten.

She also did this station ID for The Cape: http://www.thecaperadio.com/files/mp...n%20Dreams.mp3

These are ones I know of, and I'll see if I can get others to supply costumes and/or demorecords as I do not have any.

1) @Lyme, of Virtue and Infinity (Lyme, Bloody Roger, Rory the Roman), died of a seizure earlier this year
2) Sentai Kickblast, of Triumph; many Triumph folks can speak well of this young man.
3) Richard, @James Crey, Victory, Chibi Hell-OOO Nurse, lost to liver cancer
4) CC, Testy Chick of Protector; I never knew her real name but her group took me in when I started playing.
5) I don't know his name, but he was the father of @Space Nut; played on Triumph

MOre used to Muad being from Victory... 's where we played, at least.

Character I'm used to seeing him on: Acoustic Delusions:



... dont' know that we have demofiles of him or anything, fairly simple costume though. Have to try to recreate.

See my Guides and Tutorials

I'm not sure if its mentioned or not but I've not seen any Artful Dodgers post from Virtue but one their own was a guy named Stripling who passed away a few years ago from cancer.

Was always very friendly and personable to me.

You are missed sir.

The Freedom Horde lost one of our own on January 13, 2011. His name was Timothy Johnson and his global was @Scruffy/Scruffy Muffy. But he enjoyed playing his main character Barstow Betty the most. I still miss him, both in game and out.

I may have some pictures of him in group, but I'll have to dig for them. I don't have an online photo account, so if you want pictures please PM me an email address to send them to.

Thank you for doing this.

My best friend, Jeff, left us 5 years ago (Mar2007). His wife gave me his game account and I got his main character up to level 50.

His character's name is Steel Blue. We played on Infinity.

I have pictures of ALL the characters he's created and played...plus RL photos of him.

I don't have anything to add to your Rolls of the Fallen, however I did want to applaud you for this Samuriko... It's a damned fine thing.

I'll see if I can reach @Thorgar - I may have his phone number somewhere, and I know his Guild Wars 2 ID. He should have screenshots of Salsakitten. Some of The Cape regulars may have screenshots of her DJ identity too.

Walter Padilla aka veil one or macron

Again no screenshots, but he was fairly well known at the time

Michelle,

I can help you with Richard @James Crey

His full name was Richard Butler, and he played his original character, Templex, on my wife's account. We never deleted it after he died, and I can fire it up for you on Virtue if you want to take pics or video. Just name a time that's convenient and I'll try to swing it.

CP

Thanks to everyone who is helping on this. I'll be continually updating my original post with names and info as I get it - if you see that info is missing (RL name, server), please include it in this thread as best you can.

This is for @Death Conqueror from the Victory Server. His name was Jacob and he was 23 when he passed from Hogkins Lymphoma on December 24, 2011.

Mino already posted a link to one of the threads, so I will not repeat that one, but here are some other links/pics:

A Hami Raid we did in his honor: http://dc.coh-perc.com/ and pics from the raid:
Gone, but never forgotten my friend, love you!

From when we did a 10 man Hami Raid on Victory (DC is far left)


I will look for more later, I miss him so much.

From Liberty Server

Goob (Sadly I have no images) perhaps one from Maulders and Medics (their SG) will post an image.
Whit Sterling from Crimson Order SG, again no image.

My friend who doesn't have a global, he died before globals but played the game shortly. I made a tribute toon for him. Bub J Simps... Jack Simpson, he died in an accident.

Image of the toon I made in honour of him:



And here's the democode of his costume:

@Tax E - RIP CoH 2012

Dunno if anyone has mentioned him yet, but the most recent loss was someone that was on my global list ever since I started playing. @Chowder on Liberty.

@Victim 51, per this thread: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=264245

You'd want to contact Jagged Legion (if they're still around?) for pics of his character, probably.

There was a listener to Rogues Radio who died August last year, I think her global was @Black Veil Bride, which if I remember was a renamed global. I think she played on Union, and was called Kerry in RL.

I have no idea who might know her or have screenshots.

I have no names to add, but in reading Arcanaville's thread about making physical character models I followed this link, and saw Malibu Sally is there (in the group photo of City of Heroes: Unlimited and sixth from the end of the individual ones).

Also, I wanted to say that I remember @Steel Seraph.

Paragon City Search and Rescue on Infinity lost Pure Empathy in March of this year. I don't know her personally, as she had stopped playing by the time I had joined the group, so I don't have much information on her. I've asked some of the other PCSARs if they have more info and given them the link to this thread.

This is a lovely idea, and I can't wait to see the finished product.

Just posting here to say that I sent you a PM regarding some further info, I know you're probably getting a ton of PM's lately, so wanted to make sure it went through okay. Thanks again for doing this.
