@Dacy I feel like someone mentioned that like 20 days ago, it's probably
just that guy that goes around promoting everyone else's stuff though.
@Flashtoo If you were not aware you can buy them right from Amazon as well.
Are Tinhead and Paige the same person?

And she got an additional present when it was collaboratively
colored in turn by Darth Delicious, Bobby Aquitania and Lord Goat.
In many ways it's a gift to me as well when people do this so thanks again
you guys (and R.I.P. Bobby), I love seeing my stuff get tag-team colored like this.

@Rylas Um I am almost all the way through the blast sets above but I was just looking for mislabeling, typos
and other text stuff however I just noticed that under Fire Blast you have the "4 white corners" on the Aim icon.
It isn't on the other prior Aim powers and it isn't on the Wiki, is there some reason for them to be on Fire?
I wasn't even thinking to check if the symbols match the powers and such but perhaps I should do
another pass looking through the sets at a later date and check for any semiotic discrepancies?
Also I started updating the prior post because I don't want to keep making a new post
for every correction or set so as to not clutter your thread. I may just switch to a spoiler hide so
it doesn't become a wall of text and put a note outside the spoiler of what I am checking or how far along I am.
Will give it more thought later.

Ah, it would seem the devs behind that sign and I are in on a pop culture reference you are missing out on.
Fun Fact:
SpoilerThe catchy musical accompaniment to the seminal hiphop song "Regulate" by Nate Dogg and Warren G
was sampled from a 1982 Michael McDonald song called "I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)."
Give it a listen for yourself.

Are you sure you want that?
First block from the first post,
Master Mindis all one word Mastermind and Peacebringer is missing the middle E.Edit: Adding more as I find them.
Under the Armors:
Electric
Surge should be Power Surge.
Under the Blasts:
Dark
Nightfallshould be Night FallElectrical
ElectricBlast "the set" should be titled Electrical BlastElectricBolt should be Lightning BoltUnder the Control Sets
Darkness
UmbralBeast should be Umbra BeastAnimatedStone should be Animate StoneJack Frost and Hot Feet are in a different/larger font for some reason.
also Paragon Wiki has a error in that Fire Blast is missing from the Blaster primary sets.
The page exists but the link from Blaster > Fire Blast is missing. Not sure who to tell about that.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
update 11/25
Under Melee
ElectricMelee "the set" should be titled Electrical MeleeHavokPunch should be Havoc PunchJacobs
Lattershould be Jacobs Ladder(my own thought is there should be an apostrophe in Jacob's since all the Assassin's Strikes
have them but I am going with what is in the Wiki in case it is a proper name and not a possessive)
Sidenote: Taunt's iconography is a bit of a mess. Some of the taunts have the 4 corners white
and the 4 facets colored and some have all 8 segments white. I noticed some of yours did not match the Wiki
and was going to point them out but I think perhaps you were trying to make them consistent across all sets and have Taunt
be all 8 whites and all Confronts be 4 corner whites but then I saw the Taunt you have for Energy Melee is 4 corner white and 4 facets color style.
As far as I know Taunt is the same no matter what Tanker set it is in (not sure about Brutes), is this correct? If yes then I would suggest
you change the Taunt you have in Energy Melee to be the all 8 segments white style so it is consistent with the others.

Update 12/06
Under Melee
Martial Arts -
EagleClaw should be Eagle's ClawStaff Fighting -
Maiming Slashshould be Precise StrikeStone - Stone
Fistsshould be Stone FistSS -
Knock OutBlow should be Knockout Blow -ThunderClap should be Hand Clap -Hurl Bouldershould just be HurlSidenote: The white bleed around the edges is starting to creep in on some of the icons.
Particularly apparent in pieces like Kinetic Melee's Power Siphon. Whereas Smashing Blow has one white line top left right and bottom
PS has 2x lines deep of white on the right and 3 lines deep of white showing through on the left side. Not sure what is happening here
but I am guessing the whatever you use as a template has gotten slightly smaller across and more of the white base is showing through?
Is there anyway for you to use a transparent background or does that complicate things too much?
Done with text in Melee sets. 12/06

Protection aside at least you know they would Regulate any stealin' of your property and be damn good at it too.
Quick question though.... was it a clear black night with a clear white moon, you know, when you saw this billboard?

For the Assaults
Under Psi:
PsychicLance should be Psionic Lance and MentalBlaseshould be Mental Blast.Under Dark:
Nightfall is two words Night Fall.
Under Martial:
Envenomed
Daggersshould be Blades.This was just a haphazard perusal, I can do a more careful read-through when I get some more time.
On 11/20/2019 at 10:01 PM, Some Random User said:There is a typo in the name of Earth Assault's [Power Boost]. Just letting you know.
Also Earth Assault is missing the L in the post above. It has no bearing on the actual icons,
just stood out to me anyway as it is the only one different from the rest.

Hi there
Just discovered this part of the forum and thought I'd stop by. I've been a frequent visitor to the Roleplaying part of this form for a while and in there posted several story snippets about my set of characters in CoH - the Kallisti Girls. I've posted a link to that in one of the story threads. My CoH characters are essentially all the same person, but from different time lines who have been dragged into 'this one' due to an accident the original Kallisti in this timeline - Kallisti Gold - had with a Crey Portal generator.
Kallisti Gold was the first character I created on live back in 2004 and my first lvl 50 on live. Since we came back, I've got 5 of them to 50 and another 10 or so of them at various levels between mid-30s and 2 🙂 My current favourite is Kallisti the Friar, a staff/SR Brute (but don't let Kallisti Gold hear me say that, she'll get jealous!) and I've spent the last month or so collecting badges on her and got up over 1300 at the time of writing.
I commissioned some art works for KG back in the day and I enjoy writing stories and scenes around the various interactions between the Kallistis - they are all very different personalities due to their different timelines and its fun bouncing ideas between them.
Of course, Kallisti Gold is immensely proud that there is a zone named after her (at least that is her belief) and since Kallisti the Janitor turned up a few months ago, the Everlasting version of the zone has never been neater and tidier! She does pop up occasionally when there are Costume Contents to nag people to not leave a mess.
Think I said it elsewhere but Heya again @kallistiuk and welcome to the best part of the forums!
I am several stories into your Kallisti Girls page, so far so good!

Very cool concepts and costumes Sprawler, I particularly like Paragon Man and Encryption.
Welcome to the best part of the forums.
22 hours ago, Falsey said:This is Fleshrake. You really don't want to mess with her.
Or stand down-wind from her from the look of what's hanging
out of her satchel. My above point confirmed.
What's next a zombie summoning MasterMind who wants to tell me all about
how "the funk of 40,000 years" is actually coming from that Crey chemical plant over yonder?

@FireBrandi Just copy and paste it. It will automatically embed into the window and give you an option
to turn it into a text link if you so wish in a pop up at the bottom of the reply box.
If you mean to insert it into already existent text then you would click/drag over said text to highlight it
and then choose the Link option from the top row (5th symbol after Bold, Italicize, Underline and Strikethrough)
and from the window the opens past the YT link into the URL field and then click "Insert into Post."

You're welcome @kallistiuk and welcome to the best part of the forums!
Stan And Lou had so many great lines and gags and pop culture references that I am genuinely surprised so few remember it.
I post links to it on every game related forums artz section I can find and am always happy to hear when someone new
"discovers" it for the first time. Fishmorph the guy behind it all actually responded to me in one of them and was
happy people are still enjoying it after all this time. I probably had to listen to the whole series at least 3x
before I got all the references (that I was able to) out of it. Everything from the theoretical state of
Schrodinger's Cat to Scooby Doo and of course to CoH as well.
Stan: I know you opened that box and took out that big beetle thing and you ran like a little girl,
you ran so much like a little girl I was gonna ask if you sold Mutation Enhancements in Founder's Falls.
Lou: Of course I ran you Mook!

I enjoy the video but always wished he/she had used the original song and not the Korn remake.
But okay I will see your Dance Gun and raise you a Thank You! (cue the delivery truck)
Fun Fact:
SpoilerYes that is a very young LeVar Burton (a.k.a. Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge)
as the detective sent to arrest Cameo in the original Word Up video linked above.

Question though, does he know what Bo don't know?
Anyone test will hear tha fat lady sang.
I'm guessing he has "Hot Feet" too.
Sidenote:
SpoilerIt's not actually "Word 'em up" or what I thought it said for years "Word I rap" but in fact "Murderer"
Unfortunately the Jamaican enunciation makes the lyric sound like something much cooler than it actually is.

<--- Remembers the City Scoop.
Heya Innovator (a.k.a. Dika Wolf) welcome back the best part of the forums.
Nice artz you have there too, lots of great details.
In the first one I'm guessing that Skull rolled a 1 and failed his "Save vs. Irony" check.
The second is morbid and creepifying all rolled into one. Also I get the "DIE" spelled in blocks and Tragedy Ann
but a few questions come to mind... first is the upside down G just an extra letter or is it Anne G like Angie?
2nd does the HEX refer to her powers or something else? Also the straight jacket seems to be falling
in the shape of either a W-I or a W-! is that just coincidence? Also I have seen a colorful spinning
top just like that one in my Grandma's basement. That combined with all the toys positioned
to be in shock means she cared enough to stage them. So extra creep out points there.
Finally, ONOZ Raggedy Andy! You can't just die like that! Seriously not like that!
....do you have any idea how hard it is to get blood out of tile grout??

Heya @Tater Todd and welcome to the best part of the forums.
I remember seeing your handle on the old forums back on Live.
+1 for the good idea.
May want to add it here too just in case
they see this thread and miss yours.

@QueenBethari You were probably talking to Dacy but I'll chime
in anyway and you can disregard it as necessary if I am way out in left field.
I would say if the former they have more reason for their bond slowly building over time.
If the latter then you might need one BIG event that forcibly throws them together where their lives
(or sanity or hopes or reputation on campus etc etc) depend on each other.
So ask yourself would it serve the story better if they had a slow build up or a rapid transition? i.e. Would they
still doubt each other in moments of truth or would the trust be built in and only a big plot point could
shake their faith in each other. Is the story working to bring them together or tear them apart?
Will they reconcile?
Have those major directional points in place and things like how others see them
and what direction their relationship is moving in should sort themselves out organically.
For a third alternative you could go with a seemingly random circumstance or happening that
turns out to have meaning much later in the story (in a way that no one expected if you are fond of twists).
Like an identity mix-up or a seating assignment on a bus or they draw straws and are the only two to get the short straws.
The hand of fate kind of thing. That is a possibility more suited to foundation shaking reveals in the later acts.
This was probably a bunch of hooey but I hope it helps anyway.

@DJ1 Thanks.
@Flashtoo Loooong story short, it's complicated.
@DJ1 if you count PM's and notes it's more like a dozen... it doesn't just happen here either.
Also @RikOz is correct. Anyone who has quoted one of these posts has seen this. I used to use a transparent one
but it was much more time consuming (with the methods I use anyway). This newer way is "nearly as good" but much faster.
Not sure if people can choose a red background here like you could on the old forums but it wouldn't look as good
on that as my images have a muted blue background. Optimized for heroes I guess (villains stink anyway).
@Mistyr You're killing me Smalls.

In my continuing quest to find ways to use things other than they were intended
I was happy to stumble on the fact that you can use the "Dark Matter" (aka Kirby dots) aura
to simulate bubbles in a headless tank. Combined with the Radiation Armor and Psi Melee sets on a
tanker in a light blue color range makes for an interesting effect. Here then is my new tanker hero Omnibubs.
**Tinga ting ting FX continue** "I am not Left-handed."

edit: yeah okay good point but I'm not sure how to use the spoiler things but i took out the stuff that might give away stuff. Better?
At the top of the comment box, in the second row, after Size and Font go 6 symbols over to the right.
It looks like an eye. Click on that and then type anything you want hidden into that new box that
opened within the comment area. When you're done click submit & it will auto hide that text.

May want to use the spoiler widget there @DJ1 as most people haven't read Dacy's story yet (what are you guys
waiting for, it's good!) and may not want to see details about some of the penultimate moments in advance.

Thanks everyone and thank you Christopher Robin!
awww do I have to? I was hoping for the song (j/k) 😉
I am away from home right now so I don't have access to my computer but I should be back Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest. I hope this is okay?
Oh don't thank me yet, you have no idea if what I end up drawing
will be any good at all and... oh wait you want a song instead???
Well okay then. You asked for it!

@iynx I am enjoying Agent of Chaos thus far. Good build up.
Not sure if you are looking for constructive critique or not?
