That's what inspired her.

I don't know if this could really be considered a pun, but I was super excited to get "Punk Rock Girl" recently on both Excelsior and Everlasting. Both characters are female fans of punk rock. The Excelsior character is a Symphony Control/Earth Assault Dom, and the Everlasting character is a Seismic Blast/Stone Armor Sentinel. I considered making a Brute or Tanker, but melee combat annoys me unless I'm running solo.

I think you're running into what I ran into - when you check to see if a name is available, the system reserves that name to give you time to create the character. I don't know how long the reserve period is, but I'm guessing it's 15-30 minutes. It doesn't matter if you create the character or not, and it doesn't even matter if you log out of the game - the name remains reserved for whatever the time period is. However, if, as you (and I) found, if you go through the process of creating a character with that name, and then delete the character, the name is freed-up immediately. I don't think this is a bug, and as long as you know the work-around it's not all that inconvenient.

I had an Olivia Neutron Bomb back on live. I don't recall which server. Looked for it on Excelsior, but it was taken.

Not really a request for a costume piece(s), I'd just like to see the costume color palette expanded a bit. If nothing else, I'd like to see some more neutrals or earth tone colors added. For example, we have gold and we have yellow, but we don't really have a decent tan or beige. Pastels could fall under this request too, but my focus is more on earth tones.

The "Gardener" badge was a must-have for my alt, "Crazy Plant Lady" who is based on my wife. I also like the fact that lower level characters, which I have a multitude of, can earn high level recipes by fighting the Time Capsule spawns. Finally, for a while there the tokens were selling for 100,000 to 500,000 inf, which was a great way for lowbies to earn some funds.

Back in the '90s I wrote a superhero parody story where the hero fought a villain named The Thixotropic Man. The villain was a jewel thief who would escape by slamming his body on the ground, liquifying and oozing out through a floor drain with the jewels.

Thanks!

Thanks! Duck Duck Zeus, Mallard Killmore and The Quacken are probably my favorite names, but DDZ wins on overall theme.

I seem to recall that in the original game, you had the ability to toggle the visibility of your character's name and title on and off for yourself. Am I mistaken? If not, how do you do that? Thanks!

A month or so ago I discovered the rubber duck costume piece and that set me off on a path of duck-pun characters on Excelsior. The origin story for all of the charcaters begins in a toy store in Steel Canyon which was caught in the crossfire of a CoT and Clockwork battle that took place during a Rikti Raid. The store was destroyed by mystical and Rikti energy, but the combined forces granted the toy ducks sentience and super powers. They used the scrap parts from the destroyed Clockwork to build themselves bodies. Some decided to fight for good while others turned to evil and fled to the Rogue Isles. I don't recall the power sets for each of them, but the list consists of: The Mighty Duck (not really a pun, but a nice find. He is the main/Superman-ish hero duck) Mallard Killmore (name based on President Millard Filmore if it's not obvious. He's the main villain duck) Quacksilver (a speedster) Duck of the Irish (would have preferred Lucky Duck, but alas, not available) L'il Miss Firequacker (would have preferred just plain Firequacker, but again, it was taken) The Quacken (whose battle cry is: "Welease the Quacken!") Thunderduck (whose theme song is AC/DC's Thunderstruck) Quackenstein (a Frankenstein's monster-esque tank) Duck a l'Strange (Mallard of the Mystic Arts with a name based on the dish duck a l'orange and Doctor Strange) Clubber Duckie (a war mace brute) Bubble 'n Squeak (a squeaky toy with sonic powers) Duck Duck Zeus (a weather-controller)

I recently released the following name on Excelsior: Skate Not a terrible name, especially with everyone having access to Prestige Power Slide, but I simply couldn't come up with a concept for it. Better luck to someone else. There are two names on Excelsior I would love to have if the person who is using them sees this and is not overly attached to them: Crazy Plant Lady Acoustician These names would be used for characters modeled on my wife and me. She has a bit of an... obsession with plants, and I'm an acoustician in real life. If you have either of those names and are willing to part with them, please send me an IM. Thanks!
