I've played all of the armor sets except Stone, which I decided I'd give a try now that it has been improved.  So...

In my head, Pete Steel and Kenny Hickey sing this as a shanty version of All Hallows Eve. (They make it work.)

 

The Syn of Saint Grimm

 

In the dank, musty grave of Saint Grimm
There lies buried a sad story of Syn
A chosen man of the cloth
But soon gave into the flesh of a goth
She was wispy and sultry and so full of charm
He promised love and devotion and would keep her from harm

 

Married one day, child the next
The kingdom was theirs at her father's behest
Saint Grimm!, she cried. Saint Grimm you are wise!
Tell me how I may please you and do not lie
"Love me and honor me and you shall rise."
"I'll love and honor you and you will also rise!"

 

Ho he ho
Saint Grimm and his wife he betrothed
Together they rode, together they clothed
Many a man, woman and child
Givers, the Saints they were
But love costs nothing a penny they sold
But love costs nothing a penny crumbled

 

Under the midnight light of the moon
Wicked Syn was abound
Come to take the life of the first man she found
Saint Grimm answered the call, unknowingly he swooned
She was a vampire and a beauty and all soon would know
That he was a liar and conspired and his life has now crumbled

 

Ho he ho
Ho he ho
Saint Grimm his life cannot be amended
Once so proud now covered in shroud
No man nor woman or child commends him
Sinner he is, the silence so loud
And love costs nothing a penny he stole
And love costs nothing a penny crumbled

I find it a lot easier to create backgrounds for characters of Praetorian origin, likely because Praetoria's lore is much more established compared to Primal Earth.  Compared to my Primal types, my Praetorians almost always have more flavor out of the box.  I have headcannon for my Primals for sure but just haven't sat down to put their zest into words.  So here's a few of my Praetorians that I have done so with.

 

Augmented Reality, a solid-light hologram of a person who believes they are playing Guardians of Praetoria (a popular game mentioned in passing during the Deputy Assistant of Information's story arc), except they are instead unknowingly controlling an actual holographic soldier employed by the IDF to fight the Resistance.  Due to character limits I couldn't add the extra note that, following the events of the Praetorian story and learning the truth about what they actually were doing, this particular player was able to get in touch with the Vanguard after fleeing Praetoria who were then able to set up and authorize continued use of the VR hologram tech so that the player could continue fighting the good fight.

Megan Volt, the only survivor of a super soldier program devised by Neuron that involved subjecting its (unwilling) participants to painful and deadly amounts of electricity, much like Synapse but conducted differently.  Also similar to Synapse, she's pissed and wants to do whatever she can to bring down Neuron and the Empire that allowed this to happen to her.

Outland Warrior, a scavenger from a region of Praetorian Earth deemed too inhospitable for even Hamidon to reclaim (someplace like the Sahara or the Australian Outback perhaps).  The humans that reside there live Mad Max style, but stories of a utopia beyond the wastes occasionally sees the hardiest attempt to find it.  One such adventurer was able to reach the city of Praetoria but found that the utopia he had discovered was nothing like the legends foretold.

Finally, a non-Praetorian I gave a quick blurb to.  Created during Halloween, Kindred Huntress is a vampire turned vampire hunter after being demonstrated unusual compassion by a group of humans so now she goes after the vampires seeking to harm humanity as a means of returning the favor.

I'm going to post a few of my bios, starting with this one, since she's my main toon, and I've been complimented on the bio in game.

 

 Ardat_bio.thumb.png.e3d3cd006ccbb40c40f3bbcebc0cee6b.png

Not a vampire... something much older, but not unredeemable.  As in many tales, the Monster was defeated by a Hero, who was as wise as he was powerful.  He bound her, and turned a Monster into a Guardian.  Over centuries, she has paid her debt to civilization, and learned many things - that she cannot alone stop an invading army, that museums are happy to employ someone who is fluent in Sumerian and Akkadian, and that, perhaps, it is now time to fight again, as a Guardian for all people.

 

Not a vampire.  Not a Djinnah, although the Hero in the description is in fact King Solomon.  Not really a succubus, not in the ordinary sense certainly.

This character is based on an in joke, but I think the general idea carries.  I should have found a picture of him standing next to someone else - he's only about four feet tall.

I had this Ice Blast/Sonic Manipulation blaster named "Coldcore", but I wasn't really sold on the name and I hadn't written a bio for him. But I played him a bit this evening and started turning over "pun" names that would fit his powerset combination. And suddenly, I had both a new name and a bio to explain it:

 

Tony Coldwell's mutation came with a downside. While it granted him the ability to control ice and snow, it took his hearing. But Tony wouldn't let that stop him - he realized he could take advantage of his deafness by employing technology to generate intense, focused sound waves that would overwhelm opponents with their sheer volume - a volume he was effectively immune to.

 

He became ...

 

The Deafroster!

This character came about thru a fusion of V-Ger from Star Trek: The Motion Picture, and a passage from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
