Zombra Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Yes! I admit my ulterior motive here is that I am looking for "secret identity" costume ideas 🙂 But that doesn't mean you shouldn't show off! What looks are you most proud of that DON'T stand out? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddrobin Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 This is a cool low-key look, for me. I might be a little biased because it's my favorite character, though. Â Polar Ghost: Staff/Ice Stalker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oubliette_Red Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Honey-Do is probably the most normal looking character I've ever made, he's long gone though. Got tired of the endless lists of chores.  5 1 Dislike certain sounds? Silence/Modify specific sounds. Looking for modified whole powerset sfx? Check out Michiyo's modder or Solerverse's thread. Got a punny character? You should share it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZorkNemesis Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 I've got a few civillian outfits for a couple of my guys and gals. Â My Thugs/Sonic MM, Garage Band, has her look styled after that of a punk rocker. Â A Ninja Blade/Super Reflexes Stalker, Disco Ninja, who is heavily inspired by disco stereotypes. Â Bar Maiden, a Water/Poison Corrupter where I was trying for something Oktoberfest themed. Â Shotgun Surgeon, Assault Rifle/Pain Domination Corrupter, who's outfit is basically bloodied medical scrubs. 6 Currently playing on Indomitable as @Zork Nemesis; was a Protector native on live.

Carnifax Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 I've 3 that count (sorta)  The Binman, my Savage / Shield Stalker  Mombie : Necro / Nature Mastermind  And finally one that was actually from hitting Random a lot, getting this combo and designing the character around them (I don't play them much because there's a much more famous Boyband on Everlasting and I felt weird having one on Reunion even though it was a coincidence).  Boyband : Thugs / Traps MM  4 My level 50 builds [Bullitt Time : DP/Kin Corruptor] [Carnifax : Ill/Dark Controller] [Kerriae : Plant/Storm Controller] [Echinoderm : Bio/Spines Tank] [Iron Brew : Mace/Rad Brute] [Snookered : Staff/NRG Brute] [iScream : Ice/Ice Scrapper] [Binman : Savage/Shield Stalker] [Modul-8 : Time/Sonic Defender] [Concussion Blast : Fire/NRG Domi] [Orblivion : Dark/Martial Domi] [Mombie : Necro/Nature MM] [Tempore : Water/Time Blaster] [Thermodynamic Flux : Ice/Fire Blaster]  [Carni's Online CombatLog Parser Alpha]  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhym Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Great thread idea. Here's my main, 70s Man.  I won't say his outfit wouldn't stand out in 2024, but he's wearing street clothes.  He also has a fancier outfit for the disco:  Then there's Mediocre Fred.  He's inspired by a Smothers Brothers song.  He's a werewolf.  His human form started as the first guy below, but then I decided to play off of the name "Fred" and give him a bicyclist outfit.  Finally, this is The Bureaucrat, with his standard outfit, ready-for-action jacket-free look, and a nice sweater vest for Casual Friday:    1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Player2 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 (edited) Oh, I do this a lot. Here's some of them:  Amateur Archvillain, an Arachnos Soldier that struck out on her own as a rogue hoping to make it big time without the big bad spider organization backing her.   Beat, a Symphony/Martial Assault dominator who freestyle rap battles when she isn't literally beating on heroes and villains alike for fun.   Blue Collar Criminal, War Mace/Shield scrapper who wields a pipe wrench and hides behind a manhole cover for defense.   The City Druid, a Thugs/Nature mastermind who commands the loyalty of some of what others would call the lowlifes of the city in her fight against those who would harm the environment. Although she frequently fights on the side of good, she's still something of an eco-terrorist.   Cloudbreak is an Electric/Dark brute in a pretty ordinary dress (aside from her bracelets which may or may not be the source of her power). Once she enters battle, she becomes an animated stormcloud lashing out with lightning strikes and the occasional hail storm.   The Expert is an Assault Rifle/Martial Combat blaster and retired Longbow agent that occasionally comes out to help with tough missions. (I made him in the likeness of Stan Lee. Excelsior!!)   The Hillbilly Hero, a Staff/Bio Armor scrapper who gets his power from alcohol.   The Junkyard Scrapper is not a scrapper at all, but a Gravity/Martial Assault dominator. He does some melee, but really he just loves throwing junk at everyone.   The Long Cool Woman (in a black dress) is a Mind/Cold controller. Just one look and you'll be a bad mess, because that long cool woman has it all.   The Man-God, a Street Justice/Invulnerability brute. He's a streetwise super man who upholds truth, justice, and the American way... very violently... and without a shirt.   Nadia Nightsong, a Symphony/Dark controller who patrols the streets to seek out criminal intent after hours and when she isn't performing on stage.   Perfectly Ordinary, a Dual Pistols/Martial Combat blaster with no special backstory. She owns guns, knows how to fight, and takes it to the criminals.   The Pizza Delivery Man, another Gravity/Martial dominator... because it's fun and funny. This one delivers!   Pretty Strong Guy, my Rage-less Willpower/Super Strength tanker. He can carry like 6 folding chairs all by himself.   Wilde Kingdom, a Savage/Willpower brute that transforms into different animal-human hybrid forms for combat... but she's been known to mix it up in her street clothes from time to time.  Edited February 29 by Player2 typos 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Player2 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 (edited) Some more...  Big Girl, a science-based Willpower/Super Strength tanker who stands at maximum height (with maximum legs). She's another Rage-less super strength build like Pretty Strong Guy, but I play her a lot more often. Her clothes fit a lot better when she shrinks down to her 4' 10" size.   Counterpunch, a Street Justice/Bio Armor scrapper. I think the gloves with chains kind of takes away from the everyday normal clothes stuff, but... whatever.   The Dude-Man, a Staff/Ninjitsu Stalker who fights with a broom to clean up the streets when he's not "cleaning up the streets."   The Man-Dude, cousin of the Dude-Man... just another Willpower/Super Strength build. This one has Rage and I never really liked it, but it suits him.   Googly Moogly, a Dark/Psionic dominator... not @GM_GooglyMoogly.   Halloween Girl, like Big Girl, she's one of my elite... a Dark/Storm corruptor. She's a bit gothy, but still sorta normal-ish.   Heritage, a Katana/Ninjitsu scrapper with a mix of traditional and contemporary fashions. She has costumes that are more Asian-thematic, but I usually use this one.   Playmate, a Claws/Willpower stalker of a child that is both empowered and motivated by the wicked little critter perched on her shoulder, which may or may not be some kind of demon or imp.   Professor Studly, a Beam Rifle/Martial Combat blaster who is the perfect action hero... sexy, brainy scientist in a swimsuit that's also ready to throw down with some martial arts action if need be.   Rock Singer, a Symphony/Earth dominator. Like Nadia Nightsong in my previous post, she's a stage performer in her "day job," but is ready to crank up the volume to 11 when she goes out to fight crime.   Sonix, long before we had Symphony, I made this Sonic/Sonic blaster as a pop singer super hero with pipes to make the banshees cringe.   Suggestive, an Illusion/Storm controller that I made more as a joke than anything. I tend to stick her with badge titles that fit well under her name. Currently she has Author from the AE badges, making her a Suggestive Author.   Veganstein, a Plant/Empathy controller. He's awfully scrawny, but mostly from the lack of proper protein in his diet.   Windy Skye, my favorite holdover from the Live servers... a hippie dippy Electric/Storm defender and one of my top five mains.  Edited February 29 by Player2 typos 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COH Radgen Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 A couple of my favorites:  Backwoods Bastage, similar to Player2's Hillbilly Hero, he got his powers from drinking some moonshine he made with irradiated corn for the mash. He'll be glad to introduce you to his trusty hatchet he calls 'Molly'. This is also his heroing outfit.   Eva de'Struction is a research scientist at Portal Corp. She got her powers when she unintentionally contacted a darkforce dimension.   Gold Bricker Bobby was a member of the Gold Brickers until he decided he could make more cash by being a politician Blueside. He still has his Gold Bricker suit and weapons and will occasionally help out heros....in return for a campaign contribution.    Groh...just another rage mutant but he DOES look similar to Carnifax' Boyband before he activates his powers...   Last up is Scion of Hell whose day job as a professor of demonology.  @Radgen Mostly on Torch and Ex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Techwright Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Some of y'all have some very strange ideas of "secret identity" clothing. Just sayin'.  Here's Grill N. Chill, and here's his off-duty "I'm headed to the club to hear some hot jazz" look. I utilized the old comic trope where the character's out-of-costume look still has his color scheme worked in.  2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
