Echo Night

The Michael Myers in me has always wanted: Knife Play Stab Quick Slice - (Close Cone) Shiv - (+def, -spd) Vital Puncture/Assassin's Strike - (minor -dmg, -res unhidden) Hit the Jugular - (Causes MassOT bleed, 3 sec short duration, -spd) Knife Challenge/Placate - (Taunt/Placate/Hide) Knife Fan - (Ranged, Close AoE) Under the Chin - (Uppercut, KU, Stun, +dmg, +to hit, -spd) Bleed Out - (Similar to HtJ, but with 2 massive spurts, 2 hits, Fear)

Wouldn't Nightmare be a construct of the Dreaming? Steal away. Although, as the Dream Lord, I may have to come after you and stick yah in the Dreaming. Best not to sleep ever again or I'll find you... mu hah ah aha hahahaha!

So, wait. Nightmare is Sandman is Dream? This is the "Helmed" look I came up with.

I'll talk to Neil about adding "Disco of the Endless" to his family so that hopefully, you will become d: Delighted.

Correct. Solo SG.

That's what I've been doing for the last day or so. But of the ones I've come across, none explicitly say what actual powers are used by The Endless except for Dream. As I mentioned in the OP, they are all Omni-everything. More powerful than Gods since they predate even them. They all have absolute control of their own realms, which to me, means some form of Mind or Illusionary control. But, I don't want to play that many Mind trollers or Doms. I guessed Destruction would be a BS/EnA brute because of a picture of him in full armor and that he can control energy, but this was before he abandoned the family and realm. I would have liked to make him a tank but there isn't an EnA set there. What he does after, I've so far, not been able to ascertain aside from just living a life of solitude. Death is an Emp/Psi, which shocked me when I read up on what her actual station in existence is. I assumed she was, you know, DEATH. Emp/Psi just seemed to fit. With Dream, I was toying with making him an Ill/Earth/Time troller, but Ill doesn't have any sleep powers, Mind has two and Earth, although it doesn't seem too far a stretch to say Dream could use these powers, aside from the color schemes, doesn't jive with what I feel Dream's powers are. That's mostly because of unfamiliarity with the books and comics. Maybe he is more Earth than Mind? Mind isn't boring by any stretch, but I have quite a few Mind//Mind already and was hoping there would be something else I could use. I decided on Mind/Dark instead of /Time. Destiny seemed fairly straightforward. Grav/Time. Not much else fit him in my mind. Delirium is Mind/Time I think. Some of the descriptions just lent themselves to this path. Ill/Storm could work too due to the chaotic and everchanging illusionary nature of her realm. Might just change that up to have something other than Mind and time. Desire is probably the trickiest for me. I chose Rad/Pain because of the effects of his (or hers) interactions have on mortals. Rad because it lowers defense on those it hits (in game of course) which D(d)esire definitely does do to people. Pain because D(d)esire makes people do things they wouldn't do under normal circumstances and that oftentimes leads to some form of mental pain and hurt and sometimes even physical pain. Despair's powers were chosen mostly because, again, she could be a Mind//Mind. So, I decided to look at what despair actually does to someone instead of what Despair of the Endless would do to someone. I know this is an odd take since Despair is the living embodiment of despair, but, again, that whole Mind//Mind trap. So, Dark was chosen because of the state of mind someone falls into when in despair. Complete and utter loss of Hope. This, unfortunately, is a state of mind I am very familiar with. At times, the Sun doesn't even seem to exist because of the seemingly always present "darkness" one feels one is in. Not always, just more than not. Poison was chosen because one emotionally poisons the very air they breathe with their endless thoughts of, stuff... and wherever one goes, (if one goes anywhere at all) that poison follows them like a thick cloud of very tangible and inescapable, depression. A birthday party or a baby shower could spontaneously erupt on one's face and one would seek shelter within oneself because that's where "true" happiness is. Despair sucks, lol! Now that I'm writing this, Claws/ could work too. Despair self-harms and that in turn causes others already in despair to self-harm... Yes, despair sucks. Anyways, hope this clarifies things if there was confusion, to begin with.

Desire, Despair and Delirium

Here's my take on The Endless. Attempting to recreate them has been difficult for obvious reasons, but, I do like a worthwhile challenge. Destiny, Death, Dream, and Destruction.

After watching "The Sandman" Netflix show when it was released last year, and seeing "Dream," I knew I had finally found the look I had been searching many years for my namesake. While impossible to recreate that look exactly, I came up with a very satisfactory facsimile. I am now rewatching and decided to try and recreate "The Endless" with Echo in front of their name. Admittedly, I know less than zero about the characters aside from the tv show. I've spent the last couple or so hours researching them to get as close to their look as possible, but when researching their powers, I'm fairly stumped. Most of them, if not all, seem to be able to use some kind of Mind and Time Manipulation power (which would be boring gameplay) but that's kinda where the descriptions become vague. Dream from what I saw, seemed to be the only one who actually has a specific power that he used to "win." All of them are nigh indestructible, super strong, immortal, capable magic users, omni-everything, can teleport and the list goes on. But, what CoH powersets would each use? Most of them would seem to be a Controller or a Dominator, but, having only seen Dream, Death (not your Winchesters' Death), Desire, and Despair in the show, I don't have much else to grab onto. Here's what I would assume each of The Endless powers would be. Destiny - Grav/Time Death - Empathy/Psy Dream - Mind/Dark Destruction - BS/EnA (Before he left his realm, but, after?) Desire - Rad/Pain Despair - Dark/Poison Delight/Delirium - Mind/Time

IKR?!

Sappers must die!

Guess I know who to blame if this probably true scenario plays out.

You can't see it from this pic, but I had already found the hostage just a bit south of the glowies. He was in the first alcove to the left of the entrance. The first glowie I found was in the next alcove on the opposite side of the street. So, yah, about 2 minutes, maybe less.

I recently deleted a kitted-out 50 Sym/Psi Dom. Stripped her of everything she had and emailed everything to myself. Well, I emailed everything but 190 mill. Forgot to email that. She took that loot to delete oblivion. 😞

Always dreamt about a scenario just like this and lo and behold, it happened.

This is what I use when deciding on colors. https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Costume_Colors/Palette

Thank you kindly, everyone, for the responses and clarifications.

For reference: https://cod.uberguy.net/html/power.html?power=pool.invisibility.stealth&at=dominator I'm deciding between Stealth and CJ (mule purpose mostly) for a respec on a Dominator of mine and I got to wondering how much Def is lost when using the Stealth power and one of the conditions having been met for the Def loss occurs. So, I looked up the above link and I think I kind of understand it, but still want clarification. I know that when using the Stealth power and detected, attacked, etc., a large portion of the initial Def is lost. What I don't know is how much (if any) remains. Is it the +2.125% number at the bottom of the page? And if it is that, does that also get lost when stunned, held, or slept as the (Sorry! I couldn't get that damned thing smaller.) icon to the right suggests? That, if true, would also mean all of the Def protection from stealth is lost when any of the conditions have been met. Am I understanding this correctly?

Kinda sad that this event wasn't even announced.

Lemme preface this by saying, I've downed a 5th of Cap, on the way with Jack, and just listened to Chlorine, Heathens, Ride, Stressed Out and Trees by twenty one pilots. I'm farming up said char with what I consider to be one of my most, 1023 space available, tragic char descrptions yet (mo,) but Chlorine got me misty eyed. It got so frackin bad that my vision became blurred and I had to stop, while getting flamed upon by mobs and pounded on my desk and said something like, "WTF! It's just a G***D character!" *sigh* Wiped my eyes clean and got back to work. My son asked me if I was okay. I said, "Yes bud. I'm okay. "I don't ever post garbage like this, but I'm in a complicated place with life atm and since this game has been more of a home then home at times since Issue 5, I felt like, wth, I'll ask the fam a dumb question. It may not ever reach anyone else the way it did me, but man, this bio wrecked me for some reason.

This is a wicked costume! Very F'N groovy!

Just a quick update on the "Battle Costume" for Elektrix Zazz.

Same with cape collars.

Wish I could've had at least kept the warp backpack as it would have played into how and where she got her powers from, but pretty happy with the way her costume turned out. I guess this could be her social function outift and the other could be her battle costume. Elektrix Zazz - Elec/Kin Corr

I know what a Rad/Fire brute can do. As I've said already, I've got one. I just thought the idea of a Corr farming was interesting and want to try it. I too have two accounts and do the same thing that probably every farmer with two accounts does. I figure, if my Firex2 Sent can "farm", why not a Corr? So, I'm gonna give it a try, only I think I'll make 2 versions. One for FF and one for S/LF. I spent the last couple of hours working on S/L versions and I'm about 8% off S/L resist cap (w/o Incarnates clicked on) while using Scorp shield. I have another S/L version using Power Mastery Ancillary. But when I looked at the defensive numbers, I was a little disappointed because I had PBU clicked on w/o realizing it which skewed the numbers by about 7% (also w/o Incarnates clicked on.) We'll see how it goes.
