Terror Volta's Something Wicked Sundays
FrauleinMental replied to TraumaTrain's topic in Indomitable
I should be able to make it next week. I'll plan to have three alts parked there, in case there's time to alt between runs: Coffee Ring (Water/Dark Corruptor), Sister Lyra (Fire/WP Sentinel), and Cryomania (Ice/Ice Blaster). -
I plan to be there with Aluminum Patriot, Energy/Devices Blaster.

The Burnination Squad takes on the Silver Mantis SF! Our starting lineup...juggling fire. Burning down Sky Raiders. Add Freaks to taste. And then the 8 Vampyri-spawn capsules. And Colonel Duray goes down like a chump!

LRSF -- Givin' those heroes a thumpin' A few early desserts. The starting lineup! That room is terrible for wide shots. Atop the ruined Atlas Statue, where pulled...everyone except Manticore. I caught three people during their zone-out after defeating Ms Liberty. Mission complete! It really is a strange looking rifle...

Congrats to @Bananiac on the Overall Win!

I brought an angel to the CC, which is tangentially on-theme: And here's the group shot I got at the CC finale:

Yeah, I've never known them to take bios into account. I've heard of a few privately-run CCs (mostly on Live) to look at bios, but that's a lot of work.

I'll also have to miss the 8/15 event (and 8/14 Theme Team), since I'm scheduled to work that weekend. -
Superhero genre TTRPGs
FrauleinMental replied to TraumaTrain's topic in Comic, Hero & Villain Culture
MHR's "guidance" is essentially saying how they wrote up Captain America, and basically saying: do something like this. And they say up-front that the it's meant for established comic book characters. That's insufficient guidance to generate a brand-new character which, frankly, is why I play RPGs. I do understand a lot of people like to RP the established characters, which is why CoH traditionally needed to 'generic' characters, and that's really the audience MHR was written for. FASERIP did give some rules for creating new characters, especially in the Ultimate Powers Book. Yes, it was random, but it didn't have the benefit of 30+ years of advances in game design. -

All I got was the starting pic today. Thanks for the run, @TraumaTrain! We got our 10 alignment missions and a morality mission. I'd forgotten Vig->Vil uses different morality missions than Rogue->Vil, and the wrong one doesn't count for changing alignment. -
My understanding is that bios have never been taken into account for the official contests. There's not enough time for that. I've spent enough of my life grading papers to know how long it takes--most people aren't going to stand around long enough for one judge to rack-and-stack bios, let alone debate them with their co-judge. That's in addition to the actual costume, which is why we're here. To account for bios in any meaningful way, we'd have to submit them prior to the contest and the judges would have to volunteer extra hours of their time to read, judge, and debate them. Even though attendance was light on Indom, there were a lot of really good costumes. Mine was only tangentially on-theme (depending on how 'folklore' you think an angel is), several of my friends had better costumes and were closer to theme, and none of us won anything.

Barring a work call, I hope to bring my rad/rad stalker - Ruby Kit Kat.

Double-Yin Run! Run #1 begins. That's gonna hurt when the mine goes off. I'm terrible at remembering to take screenies during the TF. But here's the first run complete! Happy anniversary to Theme Team! Thanks for keeping it running! Run #2 begins. Fewer of us on theme. 🙂 Why's that big grey armored thing always in the way? 😛 Clamor...clamoring for the floor. Run #2 complete! Time for lunch!

Assuming I can get my freshly-created character up to 20 for Penny Yin, I'll bring Aluminum Patriot, Energy/Devices Blaster.

If you're below level 50, the WST bonus includes a pile of XP rather than the Notice of the Well. It's somewhere around half a level, modified for the TF like the merit reward.

Love it. Missed you guys this week! I've never played Devices or Traps, so I have some work ahead of me!

Alas, I'm working this weekend. But I'm interested for next time! -
What are you guys doing to revive PvP? A suggestion.
FrauleinMental replied to Illy's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
I don't assert people to be fragile. I just have no desire to be the object of your power fantasy. But if every PvP zone is empty, what makes you think making every zone a PvP zone will magically make people like it? -

FrauleinMental replied to Illy's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
If you want to obliterate the server population, this is a way to do it. Plenty of people on Indomitable have little interest in PvP.
