Seems like every editor out there is playing the WoW beta, or the CoH beta...or both. ;) Just RPG has posted a screenshot-laden article covering Character Concepts in 'City of Heroes':As my Supergroup was patrolling Paragon City the other day to keep it safe from crime, we spied a group of thugs trying to mug a poor, helpless woman. They were taunting her as she cowered next to a building -- but not for long! One of the simple joys of being a superhero is busting the heads of bad guys. The moment my team landed in the middle of the fray, the faux courage of the thugs melted away and one of them shouted, "I smell spandex!" just before he fell over, unconscious. That spandex you smell is my boot on the side of your head, chump ... but it's not just any old boot. This particular spandex boot was lovingly crafted and carefully selected to be a part of my heroine's concept. Heroes, you see, are very style conscious. You can't fight for truth and justice with a towel tied around your neck. You have to have customized armor or skin-tight, day-glo tights. You have to have that sexy bikini, thigh-high boots or wings and a tail. You have to have a look, for heaven's sake -- a concept. You can't go out there just being you, can you? |
