"Bananiac" was definitely not my 1st toom on live, and definitely not my Global at that time. I just remember when I came up with this name, I found it so absolutely brilliantly funny that I kinda kept it as my Alias for all future things I would do on the Internet from then on. And when I discovered HC, it had become 2nd nature and was the obvious choice for my new Global. Even though, it was not the first toon I made. I had about a dozen new and re-made toons before I settled down on that one. This is by all accounts and for the purpose of this excercise what I will roll with! For the record: Rad/Plant Controller (*) (*) Even though the original on live was I think a Spines/Rad Scrapper or something... but that Controller fits the idea much better).

I have a ghosty toon that I have readied for this: Shade Queen (War Mace / Electric Brute). With this being the easter weekend, I am not yet 100% sure if I will be home for Theme Team on saturday, though.

Great idea! I am all for it!

I loved everything about this! Look at all those awesome concepts! We should have spontaneously created a Supergroup for them! Welcome to "Captains of the World"! Makes me think, could the same be done for a "Thundergod" Theme? Like... you know, Thor, but from other Panthei of the world? And did we have a Mecha theme yet? Could do "Rainbow Iron Man" Theme some time...

A bit of an outlier here, but my best source of Merits was actually from the HC costume contest 😇 I think I had a couple thousands stored in my global email that I slowy went through converting to converters to IOs, which basically funded my ever growing stable of Incarnate builds... I have finally almost run out now, so time to go out win another one (*) Other than that, I hop on GM hunts pretty regularly, which is a fun way to farm rewards and monster merits. (*) Nowadays they award prismatics and not reward merits anymore, don't know if one is actually better of with those... I have hardly a use for these, I just keep them for the occasional special FX costume if that suits a certain character concept

In the light of recent events, I chose to go with Captain Ukraine (Shield/Energy Melee Tank).

Good luck with the Surgery then. hope it is nothing too serious.

Hey @Midnyte, great shots as usual! Thanks for posting the pics together with the Bios again! Great read everyone! @FrauleinMental: Had to ROFL when I actually saw your badge title here (I miss those eassily when we play)! Where do I get that? Need one, too! 😄
-
I also will have to miss the next one again. Good hunting!

I move my toons around quite frequently, especially for Theme Team. I got most of my toons on Reunion, in many different states of neglect. TT has always given my great opportunity to revisit them. If I need to accelerate levelling to meet TF requirements, they usually spend a week or so on Everlasting, as it is much easier to group there, before I move them to Indom for the weekend.

I am planning to bring either Silent Huntsman (Kin Melee / Regen Stalker) or Idaho Jones (Super Reflex / Street Justice Tank). Will decide on who else shows up and which powersets, basically. EDIT: I toyed around a bit more with Huntsman and decided I like him much better than Jones. So going there, even though we already have another Kin.

Would "Plant" powers include "Nature Affinity"? Because otherwise this will be an all-Controller/Dominator team. Which is totally fine, of course. For the sake of variety, I have prepaired my Emerald Arrowmage Arrows / Nature Blaster to look like an orcish archer. But I also could bring Driftwood Druid, which is a Plant / Marine Controller, if that is The Thing tomorrow. That being said, I can't guarantee right now to be back home in time for TT. We are still 1h less in DST this weekend and 5pm will probably be too early for me tomorrow. Or even 6pm. So don't wait for me, I will either be there or be square...

Well, I just thought it would be cool to see how a "Captain Amerrica"-Like toon would look if he were from somewhere else. I don't care from where. I think these indian tribes or lost kingdoms are faboulous ideas, I love to see what you come up with!
-
I am planning to bring my Sonic / Sonic Defender Amber Siren, to round out the Support Role.

Btw, I had another idea for a fun theme, I think. Something I came about on one of the Reddit threads about making Captain America. What about this: World of Captains - Pick a Nation, make a Captain! Obviously you need Shield Defense, and any type of Melee Powerset you think will fit the theme. And don't bring the American guy! Look somewhere else! Naturally, we should have each nation only once! (*) (*) For the record here: Feel free to pick a "Hauptmann Germanicus" if you like 😉, but if nobody does, I have something waiting in the wings. But I am also happy to pick any other nation, got many concepts in my mind that I would love to try out anyway...
