Say I wanted to move my main character over to another server, but he's the founder of a SG. What happens to the SG?

I played on Triumph. My Supergroup was the Sentinels of Honor. We all wore matching costumes. My main was Ionic Burst.

I used to run a SG called the Sentinels of Honor on Triumph. Notable members included Ionic Burst (my main), Neutrina (played by my wife who sadly passed away in 2022), Green Dolly, Red Mongoose and Misty Knight. I hope that at least one or two of them may have returned, and hey... if you just remember my characters or SG, let me know! It's great to be back!

Honestly, if people want ERP, there are sites devoted almost exclusively to that. I'm a longstanding member of one of the more respected (and thankfully heavily moderated) one of those sites. I wouldn't expect that kind of RP here of all places.

I haven't done any RPing in the game (though I have written collabrative stories with CoH characters on a writing site), but I wouldn't be against it.

I originally named this character "Streak" because he was very fast, but settled later on the name "Guardian", as I felt it fit him a lot better.

Agreed. Those are pretty epic imho.

Thank you so much! I did not draw those. I never developed any artistic talent I may have had back in Middle School (ages and ages ago) when I saw so many folks who I thought were already way better than I was. No, these were done by a buddy of mine who I commissioned them from in 2010. I can link to his DeviantArt page if that's allowed, but he goes by the Art name "Mr Happy". Fair warning though, he works slowly. Well worth it in my humble opinion, but he works at a slower pace, mostly due to health issues and other obligations and interests. Again, thank you for the compliments. I'll pass them onto him for sure. This character's name is Multiversal Guardian here on Homecoming, mostly due to the fact that "Guardian" wasn't available. I do have one more image that I could share if folks wanted to see in the style of the old "Official Handbook to the Marvel Universe" books.

Images are mine, please don't steal. Comments and questions welcome. 🙂

Hey there, chase. Thanks for commenting! I never have fleshed out the alien race that saved him or the creature that attacked him and his deceased girlfriend. In my mind though they're like an intergalactic police force akin to the Nova Corps or Green Lantern Corps. Like peacekeepers around the galaxy. I'm unsure of how long it had been since the original Rikti attacks that we took part in in the old game in lore. Has it been 20+ years? If so, then yes, he was there in the original raids. I am a returning player from 2004-2010 and Ionic Burst was my very first level 50 character. He still looks young because of the alien DNA, I suppose. Right now I have the new version of him up to level 41 but he'll probably be my first Homecoming level 50 as well.

Questions or comments welcome btw.

The code here is a bit different than I'm used to. Sorry for any errors.

Name: Kevin Spencer Nom De Guerre: Ionic Burst Sex: Male Height: 6' Weight: 205 lbs Hair: Brown Eyes: Blue Place of Birth: Paragon City, Rhode Island, USA Current Nationality: Citizen of the United States with no criminal record Known Relatives: Father (Leonard Spencer), Mother (Kathleen Spencer), Sister (Veronica Spencer; see Ionica) Current Occupation: Superhero, founder of the Sentinels of Honor Current Place of Residence: The Sentinels of Honor's underwater base near Striga Isle, Paragon City Affiliations: Founder and leader of the Sentinels of Honor, reserve member of the Freedom Phalanx Hobbies: Charity work, Video games, Pen and Paper RPGs, Listening to music (Alternative, Goth Rock and Oldies) Quote: "Bravery is not the absence of fear... Bravery is the will to do the right thing, to overcome adversity despite one's fear" Origin of Powers: Science; Infusion of alien DNA with his own Strength Level: Ionic Burst possesses the strength and endurance of a human of his age, height and weight who engages in intensive regular exercise. KNOWN SUPERHUMAN POWERS: Ionic Burst is an amalgamation of human and alien physiology, though of what alien race is as yet unknown. This has resulted in his body essentially becoming a cosmic battery; at any given moment he is absorbing small amounts of various types of energy in his environment. This process is largely involuntary, though given the right circumstances, he is capable of voluntarily absorbing vast quantities of energy, the upper limits of which is currently unknown. He is able to convert this energy within his body for various uses, the most notable being the ability to project blasts of high intensity plasma, a combination of concussive force and heat so intense that it can cause many objects to shatter upon contact. He is immune to the effects of the energy he generates. Over the time he has been a hero, he has gotten quite accurate with his blasts, and with enough concentration, almost never misses. Other ways he has learned to harness this energy include: * Charging his fists with explosive energy, infusing his melee attacks with incredible damage potential. * Gathering energy up within himself to temporarily increase the damage of his plasma blasts. * Gathering up all his power at once, to release it in a devastating omnidirectional blast which he calls his Nova Blast. After using it, he is exhausted, but few things can remain standing after being hit by it. *Manipulate space to teleport an ally to his side, with an upward range of around 1 to 2 miles. He is as yet unable to teleport himself. * Manipulate the gravitrons around his body to carry a negative charge, partially negating the force of Earth's gravity upon him. Further, he can expel invisible blasts of energy in any direction needed to propel him through the sky at high speeds. Considering the fact that this doesn't seem to require a great deal of concentration, it's likely that this process is largely subconscious. * Create a field of solid energy around himself, to protect him from harm. Since he seems unable to attack with this field up, it's likely it requires a great degree of concentration to maintain. * Create a tight field of superdense formfitting energy around himself, making him nearly invulnerable, while still allowing him to attack. However, this cannot be maintained for more than a couple minutes at a time, so it seems to be very draining. Blanket his body with a lesser form of that field, to protect him from kinetic energy (Punches, kicks, gunfire, etc), though the energy matrix is loose enough that attacks of pure energy and elements cannot be stopped. This field can be maintained indefinitely. Limitations: Ionic Burst is limited by the fact that he still needs air to survive, though his force field can allow him to breathe in inhospitable environments for a short time until the oxygen within the field is depleted. HISTORY: Kevin Spencer grew up in a nice middle class family in Paragon City; specifically on the streets of Galaxy City (Then Paragon Heights). As with many young boys surrounded by vast statues of larger than life heroes, he grew up idolizing many of them, fantasizing that when he grew up he'd be a hero and fight badguys, just like Statesman, Sister Psyche, and Miss Liberty. There was even a retired heroine living in his very neighborhood, Kelly Graham, once known as Galaxy Girl. The whole neighborhood loved her, but she was an especially good friend of his parents, and Kevin got to see her often (She even spent one Thanksgiving with his family). His own grandparents passed away before he could even remember, Kelly was literally the grandmother that he and his sister Veronica never had. They called her "Gramma Graham", and due to her influence, Kevin grew up to be a clean cut young man of very high morals, always thinking of those least fortunate first. After finishing High School, Kevin received a scholarship to Paragon University, where he planned to study the humanities and eventually become a teacher. He and his High School sweetheart Elizabeth already had plans to get married once he graduated and got a professional job. His future seemed bright, or so it seemed. The summer before he was to start college, he and Elizabeth were walking home through King's Row after seeing a movie late one night. Suddenly, the two were rocked by an explosion, sending them sprawling across the pavement. Struggling to maintain consciousness, he realized that his arm and both his legs were shattered, and saw that Elizabeth wasn't doing much better. He watched in horror through a bloody haze, as a hideous creature, easily 10 feet tall with blotchy gray skin and an enormous maw of razor sharp teeth emerged from the crater caused by the explosion. It chortled and spoke in an alien tongue, before swiftly moving toward the wounded Elizabeth, snatching her up. Kevin screamed through blood and tears, unable to move as he was forced to helplessly watch it devour the girl he loved... a memory forever etched into his nightmares. He gritted his teeth as the creature grinned wickedly and strode toward him.. it was clear that this was no animal instinct hunting beast, but a sentient creature who took malevolent pleasure from killing. I'm sorry, Elizabeth, he thought as the creature reached for him. Just as he thought his life was over, the air was filled with the sounds of high powered energy blasts... heroes, he thought, looking up. But it was not heroes he saw; rather, a group of six three fingered humanoids in a strange silver garb, each assailing the creature with blasts of high intensity plasma. The creature fought savagely, but was quickly overwhelmed, and all that remained was a charred husk. The creatures stood around the monster, nodding, before looking at Kevin... they began conversing among themselves in another alien tongue, and finally one of them kneeled over him and placed a hand on his brow. "Yttfihjrolnas'ctimonyagr..." it spoke to him... Kevin shook his head, confused and dazed. It spoke again, it's words somehow trailing into something he could understand. "Stgjowak'at'rry for your loss.. this criminal we have ben chasing for come time now... he will never hurt anyone again... you are dying, Terran... and while we cannot bring your mate back, we can save your life, as well as gift you and your world with something great..." Kevin merely closed his eyes... he couldn't think. He felt apathy and guilt... if only there'd been something he could have done... The creature passed his hand over Kevin's eyes, and he blacked out. When he woke, the pain of his injuries were gone. He looked around, and saw that he still lay at the scene of the attack. The crater was still there, but the silver garbed beings and the dead creature were gone... Elizabeth's body lay nearby, mangled but in one piece. He scrambled over to her side and wept, even as the words of the alien resounded in his mind. "Kevin Spencer of Terra, your genetics have been combined with our own, in order to save the life that was quickly slipping away... you will find that you possess many abilities that most of your race does not have. We have searched your heart and found you to be among the most noble of your race. The power we have imparted to you is yours to use, so follow your heart. I know you will use it wisely. Farewell." Kevin heard the words, but at the time was focused only on the immense pain wracking his noble heart. Elizabeth's service was held the next week, and he took small comfort in the consoling he recieved from his parents, his sister, Elizabeth's parents and Graham. In Graham he confided several weeks later what had happened, and of the powers he now possessed. Graham was very understanding and helped him through a very difficult part of his life, even introducing him to S.E.R.A.P.H. contacts. Now in a moderate control of his new powers, Graham felt he was ready. He was to become a registered hero in the city the very next day, but fate intervened. The Rikti attack came swiftly and without warning, and his beloved city was threatened to be extinguished. In the initial assault, Kevin tried to help in the fight, but his nascent powers and lack of skill in using them sealed his fate, or would have. Severely wounded, and about to die, he was shocked to see his "Gramma Graham" in full costume as Galaxy Girl, at his side. Her healing powers brought him back from death's door, but he was still too weak to fight. She smiled at him; her smile always had the power to warm anyone's heart and this was no exception. She whispered to him, "You and all of your generation of heroes are this city's future. Never forget that, Kevin". With that she flew off to help in the fight for the city, leaving Kevin in the care of the Paragon Heights Hospital. Little did Kevin know as he drifted into unconsciousness that it would be the last time he would see her. When Kevin awoke, the Rikti War was over. His sister and parents were at his side, and broke the news to him of Galaxy Girl's valiant sacrifice to save Miss Liberty and scores of other heroes. The news devastated him, but now more than ever, he was proud to have been a part of her life. Galaxy Girl's was but one of many services in honor of Paragon City's fallen heroes. He attended that memorial, and was one of the people to give a heartfelt eulogy. It was at the service that the mayor announced both the erection of a beautiful statue in her honor, as well as the renaming of Paragon Heights to Galaxy City. His resolve now strengthened as he recalled her last words to him, he dubbed himself Ionic Burst and began his career as a hero... over the months as he defeated various villains, he came to meet a heroine called Neutrina, whom he fought alongside on many occasions. On June 17th 2005, Ionic Burst and Neutrina officially founded what would become one of the city's most respected supergroups, the Sentinels of Honor. Over the next year, he would make many friends and allies, and the ranks of the Sentinels would grow. The mayor of Paragon City has now officially recognized Ionic Burst as a "Hero of the City", the equal of any Freedom Phalanx member in the eyes of the city. Recently Kevin had visited Galaxy Girl's memorial statue, speaking aloud softly, "Well Gramma... I did it... I fought hard, and I'm still fighting... for you, and all whose lives you enriched... I miss you... but your sacrifice wasn't in vain... as long as I breathe, I'll make sure of that".

Is there a place I can post my very long winded bio and OHTMU style "sheet"?
