Arshai The Light
IMAGE(http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb191/meisterjvv/CO_Arsha_The_Light.jpg)

Arshai was once mortal, in another time and maybe another universe. Her God fell in love with her, and when she died their soul was bound together for eternity.
She took notice in humanity because they reminded her so much of her people and her mortal life. As a gift to her, she was given life again. It was also a gift to humanity, because soon humanity will face some of its biggest challenges!
Powers: Archery and Elemental (mostly lightning)

Mr Glass
IMAGE(http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb191/meisterjvv/CO_Mr_Glass.jpg)

Mr Glass was a normal person until a few years ago. He stumbled upon a strange device, maybe left for him, or completely by accident. It spoke to him, said it had a purpose. Its purpose was to grow strong, and he would help it. They would grow strong together.
It was hardly a small band of metal back then, big enough to be a bracelet. Over the years he has added to it, becoming armor to protect him and do some good to the world. He didn't dare take it out, but when the Qularr invaded he knew he could wait no longer!
Powers: Powered Armor

Su'Qulan'i
IMAGE(http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb191/meisterjvv/CO_Suqunali.jpg)

Su'Qulan'i is an alien, a distant cousin of the Qularr. His society uses a lot of mechanical augmentation, hence every one of his appendages being artificial. His intelligence was at the top of his species, and he uses his knowledge of weapons and machines to help others. With Dr. Destroyer using the Qularr as his pawns, he knew that his help would be needed on Earth.
His species can travel through the ground at high speeds, but his augmentations have made it difficult. He chooses to fly on a hover disk he made himself.

Su'Qlin'i
IMAGE(http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb191/meisterjvv/CO_Suqlini.jpg)

Su'Qlin'i is one of Su'Qulan'i's older brothers. Similar to the rest of his species, he had his appendages replaced with artificial limbs. He does not have the brilliance of his younger brother, but he has studied fighting for over 50 years. He is incredibly strong for his size, all his augmentations increasing his strength and constitution.

My main, Canadian Shield

His nemesis-to-be? Manifest Destiny

Trixy speaks little of her past, but the brutality of her martial artistry belies a deep seated anger and thirst for vengeance. The significance of the single bandanna she wears is currently unknown, but seemingly signifies a score to be settled in blood. When settling a blood quarrel, Trixy wears only the bare necessities.

I need to remake my char. I really mailed it in in the costume dept, i was going for an undead cybernetic MA but since it was my 1st char, it sucked. Great job guys!

You can go to a Tailor to change your costume, not sure how much it costs though.

Holding out til november is getting tough.

It's pretty cheap actually. You also get additional costume slots as you level so you can make costume changes when you toggle different builds, if you so desire.

SHODAN Drone Unit 32b
Probably going to start again with this one - needs a better head and more green and metal tendrils

I'm loving the gunslinger class...

Great time with the Goodgers today. Thanks for the help mutton, stevenmack and Unstoppable Mass.

Don't want to be mean to the people with lower spec PCs, but it looks like the extra power makes the characters look pretty awesome. Seems like a very Crackdown look. Looks cool.

Hypatian your character looks like your avatar.

Alexandria and Eleanor Peabody, her secret identity:

IMAGE(http://helwise.googlepages.com/Costume_Hypatian_Hypatia_CC_Comic_Pa.jpg)IMAGE(http://helwise.googlepages.com/Costume_Hypatian_Alexandria_CC_Comic.jpg)

Eleanor Peabody was working in the stacks of the city library when a Qularr ship was shot down and crashed through the ceiling and floor, carrying Elle into the depths of the archives. Elle wiped the blood from her eyes and struggled to rise, placing her hand on an ancient Egyptian scroll - suddenly, words rang out: "Hear the voice of Hermes Trismegistus! The pact is made!" With new strength, Elle stood and began stalking the Qularr that had invaded her library.

Hmm. Mainly just in the costume color matching the background, and the dark hair.

Is it just me or do all the non-human (robot, wolf, etc) heads look really bad. There just are not very many choices compared to how important the head is for a chacter. Hope they add more.

Once I actually figure out what the hell I'm actually doing it'll be even better

(side note : if you want to have crazy fun...and die a lot when you accidentally land in a pack of bad guys...pick the spider-man style "swinging" ability. It's awesome )

yeah the heads do seem limited...I wonder if there are other parts that unlock in the game (i thought i saw mention of it with that PVP quest you can do at the start of the main desert area).

The PvP quest is worth doing it opens a full mexican wrestler outfit. Best part is a nice cape graphic that looks better than the basic one.

There are other unlocks that you can see from the dealer in the Ret Con center but they require killing thousands of a certain kind of mob from what I can see.

The styling of the heads is lacking. I've grown fond of the insect heads, but almost all of the face sliders do nothing.

Great costumes all! Will be fun when we start tackling open content together!

There are also a number of weapon costume unlocks available as drops and via crafting.

I wish I would have taken a screenshot of the "Monarch Henchman" in his picture perfect outfit when I saw him in the open beta.

My current two characters that I'm quite happy with...

Comic-Book women are much more attractive than Comic-Book men? Seems pretty obvious.

I subscribe to the "staring at a backside for hours on end...might as well be a nice one" philosophy
