City of Heroes - Online Hero Game

Re: City of Heroes - Online Hero Game

 

I tarted-up the Legion of Heroes supergroup base on Champion. We have a control room now and a small workshop. There's also a base salvage rack and some minor decorations. Any newbie items folks care to make, like a telepad, would be great.

 

I'd like to respect the couple of toons I have in LoH, so I'm going to avoid leveling them until someone is on to re-invite me.

 

We have about 30k prestige left now, not enough to do anything with (like make a teleporter room with a telepad, or a medical bay with a rez ring) but we can add bits as folks like and prestige allows.

 

Thanks, Gojira. Sorry I missed you last night, I fell asleep and my sweetie shut my computer down.

Re: City of Heroes - Online Hero Game

 

So some friends and I decided to make a loose confederation villain team on Protector. We each have like 5 villain toons, and they were all unaffiliated. I had the only level 10...

 

So I got to choose the name...

 

And I got...

 

The Criminal Legion of Wacky Nefariousness.

 

Our motto? "Better than Denny's!"

 

This is going to amuse me for days... :D

Somebody already took the Guild of Calamitous Intent, I take it.

We added a new member to CLOWN last night...

 

Dohar, Lord of Robots. MM Robots/Traps (6th level)

 

2 Battle Drones: Raccoon and Cave Rat

 

And yeah, he looks a lot like THE Dohar, but with a Robotic Arm. Anyone who knows Dohar and clicks the info button for the back story on that toon will probably try to hunt me down and either smack me, or offer me a job writing sitcoms.

Re: City of Heroes - Online Hero Game

 

Vis a vis my last post, how many "joke" toons do you have? Homages?

 

Joke:

 

Mr. Miyagui - MM: Ninja/Poison

William Zabka - Stalker: Martial Arts/Energy Aura

Wayne Brady - MM: Thugs/Dark Miasma

Dohar Lord of Robots - MM: Robotics/Traps

Baron Unterbheit - Brute: Electrical/Electrical

Darylon Evenwater - Defender: Empathy/Archery*

 

 

*This is a joke character because he's an elven priest of Corellon Larethain of D&D fame. My friends and I made an entire D&D adventuring party because apparently we're just THAT geeky.

 

Homage:

 

Proditor Cappela - Tank: Inv/SS

Manta-Man - Defender: Storm/Electrical

Evergreen Dryad - Scrapper: Spines/Regen

Dr. Wraithman - MM: Undead/Dark Miasma

Mercury Mercenary - Corruptor: AR/Kinetics

Sabre Carstairs - Scrapper: Broad Sword/Invul

 

Huh...I still have 15 other toons...

 

But I'm not addicted or anything. ;)

Re: City of Heroes - Online Hero Game

 

I have no real joke characters. Maybe I need to lighten up a bit.

 

Punctilious Punster - Joker homage. Kinda a joke because he's Ninja/Trick Arrow. It's ridiculously hard to play. But using ninja's and funky arrows which flash-bang instead of, like, a gun for example, seems truly mad to me so the concept works.

 

 

I have a few homage type characters:

 

Mary Mar Vel - Invul/SS. Obvious homage and all-round badass.

 

Witchcraft - Mind/Emp troller. Obvious Champions homage

 

Corrie Sapphire - Enrgy/Elec blaster, Sapphire homage.

 

Iron Mistress - Robot/FF mastermind. This one is interesting. Rather than a homage, it's basically the opposite of Iron Man. Female instead of male, evil instead of good. She still has force powers like Iron Man, but her primary Robotics is a bit of homage to the CU villainess Engineer. It's a fun combo to play..

Re: City of Heroes - Online Hero Game

 

FYI, folks, I've changed my global handle from @Tyger FenianB to @Celt FenianB.

 

edit: and for those who want to know how, the slash command is /changehandle . If the desired handle is taken you will get a box prompting you to select another. You can only do it once, but if you already have some time in the past like me, the system has been reset or something so you can do it again.

 

Most of my playing has been on Virtue. I've a 50 tanker there, Tyger by name, and a 50 Mastermind, Lady Coral. Everything else has been alt-itis, no out and out homages.

Well, I got versions of three of my PCs, Shift (although spelled .Shift), October Raven, and The Scrapper (As Silver Scrapper.). I also have Kapitan Chen, a homage to Balalaika from Black Lagoon. And while I retired her, I breifly had a Corrupter based on The Major from GITS.

 

EDIT- Also, for those that remember my posting of The Cabal of Nightmares, I have Geisteskrank as well.

Quite a few, but here's a couple:

Kitty Kat Bravo was named because of one of the other players was complaining about one of the Malta missions. "I can't believe we got wiped by someone named KITTY KAT BRAVO!"

 

Nothing Left to Lose is on the Freedom server. 'nuff said.

 

Joan of Jett is a mixed homage...

 

Mr. Green Genes I'll have to get him superjump...

 

Nurse Feratu and EtherBunny for the names

 

And I have about a dozen names based off of songs, like Harvester of Eyes and Metal Postcard

I do have two 'joke' toons, Ninja Gecko and his archenemy Sumo Roach. These were inspired by a shirt my brother sent me from Hawaii with their unending battle emblazoned on it.

Celt: Well, that's how I pronounce, it yeah. I decided to spell it correctly and hope people got the joke. Since you did, I think I erred properly on the side of caution. :D

 

James Gillen: Too. Darn. Funny. You sir, win the HERO internets. All of them.

 

Now a question about the aforementioned Dohar...

 

Tenative naming:

 

Third Battle drone: Squirrel

 

Protector Bots: Mountain Dog, Eagle Hawk

 

Assault Bot: Elephant

 

Thoughts?

 

Oh, Wayne Brady just hit 16th, so he now has his Enforcer: Brad Sherwood, to lead his thugs, Dave Chapelle and Ryan Styles.

I'm hotdogging up a mastermind on Thug Champion, Rabble-Rouser by name. Planned pet names, in no particular order, are Punk, Orphan, Rogue, Gramercy Riff, Turnbull AC, and Baseball Fury. Name that homage for a no-prize, true believers!
