Just want to add that I love having tons of NPC heroes and villains running around like the characters you mention, both in the world and in missions. They can be lore heavy famous characters, or just some two-bit character, doesn't matter to me. It makes the world feel much more alive.

Released: Adversary Magik Metal Sigilist

Really great work on those Carni!

More street level than my usual style of heroes, this is Skyway, reformed member of the Trolls striving to be a hero.

I mean, now you got me thinking.... Tier 9 Blast - Shinobi Ichizoku "Summon your Shinobi Ichizoku (ninja family) for a brutal, area attack around your target." I'm picturing smoke, ninjas darting around, then disappearing quickly. Knockdown so when the ninjas leave and smoke clears the baddies are either dead or trying to get back up.

This would be great for a Moon Knight type character. Can we get Random BS Go for a Tier 9 though?

Amazing as always FP, especially love Boneyard!

Love this, great name and look wow!

I don't usually have it on, but tried it out just for Ooze-Man and it really worked with his simple design.

Loving my new Dark/Dark Tank, this is Ooze-Man!

Eh, I'd rather Statesman stay dead. HOWEVER. I'm pretty sure it's illegal Psyche is still dead. She's a red-headed telepath, they aren't allowed to stay dead more than 30 days at a time!

Found free in the wild, too good not to share: Geomorph

I know we've got a lot of names released, but I just found this one free and thought it was too good not to share. If you need the ultimate, archetypal villain name: Antagonist is available.

Introducing Netizen, he's a Kinetics Defender, a synthwave 90s Trapper Keeper come to life, and 100% hero.

There's some great "dark" options for all those weapons, I especially like the Rularuu weapons for a concept like this. War Mace/Energy Aura (color the powers dark) is a fantastic combo, there's some Endurance help in /EA. Katana/Ninjutsu is a classic for a reason, would work well with your concept. /Bio Armor works great with almost anything, is a top tier set for damage with great survivability, you can re-color or minimal FX most powers into a dark concept, but there's a few powers that still use the biological type effects. With some effort you could explain that as darkness stuff too though. /Shield is great and has some good designs for a dark concept. /Super Reflexes is great but beware it has no endurance tools, you can fix that with IOs and especially Incarnates, but you'll be out of breath a lot while leveling a, for an example, WM/SR. Plenty of other sets but I've got the most experience with those.
