Hmmm... an undead robot?
/headexplode
hmm... maybe he should be reanimated... he's an old cowboy, somehow mangled and dead, and his nemesis is the one who reanimated and repaired his mangled parts with robot parts in hopes of creating a reliable #2....
... but Bullet Eyes just wants to rest in peace, but his nemesis holds the key to ending the infinite respawns sans penalty...
Only my yet unnamed, uncreated nemesis can pull the plug on BE's [after]life, and allow him to rest for eternity! BWAHAHAHAHA
Ahhhh ok. Maybe he was once a dead cowboy, now reanimated by his nemesis with the help of robot parts.
I'm planning for my nemesis to be the origins of my toon as well. 
Behold, my characters! So far anyway, I'm a serious alt-addict in this game.
Raised in the northern reaches of Canada among the Siberian Yupik people, Imgalrea became fascinated with Japanese animation known as "anime." When a supposedly kindly doctor offered to turn her into the object of her adoration through cold-based surgery Imgalrea jumped at the chance.
Then things went horribly awry... and Eski-Moe was born!
Unsatisfied with the status quo, Magnus Major decided to change it the only way he knew how; with extreme prejudice. Now those who would oppress the downtrodden must face Magnum X!
Sun Tzu has come back to teach everyone the meaning... of WAR.
In a future where Man's unique genetics have been all but extinguished one of the last pure Humans, Madison Grant, was sent back in time to help keep Humanity safe from corrupting influences. Armed with advanced technology and purity of heart Madison took upon himself the moniker of the White Knight, protector of the One True People.
Now he fights a never ending battle against those who would warp humanity's genetics for their own perverse lusts in an effort to make sure his future never happens.

Their powers are, respectively, Ice, Munitions, Fire (from his dragon crown) and Power Armor. I'm still getting used to them and trying out various power sets/travel powers but I always start from some stupid name/historical figure and go from there. I'm thinking maybe Abraham Lincoln will come back soon as a Steampunk Gadgeteer. I was disappointed I couldn't create a good Chairman Mao because I couldn't put a Chinese Communist hat on top of a Feline beastial head.

So, shall we collectively roll a Supergroup of Cyborg Ex-Presidents?

How about giant robot presidents? I tried to make a robot Lincoln a while back. The metal beard isn't great, but he looked weird with an actual beard.
"The Emancipator"

We couldn't complete the set though. The body sliders won't allow for anyone to make a Taft.
Today I saw a floating Lincoln named "The Emancipator" I thought that was pretty good.
Why not, I want to play around with the Gadgeteering power set.
Though thought dead by many, Abraham Lincoln was in fact put into suspended animation through the sorcery of his wife, Mary Todd Lincoln. Famed inventor John Ericsson finally managed to revive Lincoln shortly before his own death in 1889.
Lincoln took up a job with the Secret Service, protecting America from threats unknown. His first real action took place in 1914, thwarting Archduke Franz Ferdinand's monarchist ambitions over Europe. Lincoln now protects Democracy around the world.
Well. I've gone through some revisions on my main, Alexandria. Here's the current costume:
Alexandria (alias Eleanor Peabody):
My alt. I really need to try some different powers, but I just haven't come up with a good combination for her yet—kind of want to do a mix of gunplay, claws, and some sort of blasty stuff. I just haven't found a setup that really made me happy, yet.
Anna Leviathan:
An alt I created just so I would have the free respec with her. The costume isn't great—just a placeholder for things to come. I couldn't really come up with a great look for "dead wet girl" quickly, so I went with all white ghosty with claws instead for the short term.
Rusalka:
I wonder if anyone has made a Leonidas yet.

I saw at least one in the starting zone a while back.
Not sure if anyone's made Legolas though.
Alexandria's nemesis Fahrenheit 451:
Another new one (not based on an existing character this time ...
Feyral, an exiled Sidhe Elf swordmaiden
Man. My friend Miranda tells me I am secretly a teenage girl, based on all the time I spend in the character creator.
Manhandler:
Better stay away from *Legion* then.
Uh oh. I think that may have given me an idea for my second nemesis. >_>
I planned on doing a Demon-hunting, supernatural investigator family.
Here is the Patriarch, Mister Midnite:
This is his "Silver Age" costume:
His Daughter, Pisha:
I'll probably be doing the brother some time later. Oh yeah, my first nemesis, S'anaa:
Nice! I should post my Nemeses the next time I'm at MCPD.
Nemesis creation was kind of problematic for me. Took me so much time iterating through costumes before I could settle on something that I liked enough to use for my Nemesis but not enough that I instead saved it for use on a later alt
how do you take screen shots of the chars posing and without the main menu gui?

On the loading screen just hit the Print Screen button, find them in your CoH folder (screenshots) and there ya go.
Another alt addict here. I'm already wishing I had more character slots - I still haven't even touched on my ideas for steampunk inspired characters. ><
Artemis - Archery/1h Sword
Kitsune - Dual Swords/Munitions
Prometheus - FIRE!
Nightfall - Darkness/Telekinesis
Anubis - Sorcery
Oh dear. An Anubis. 
Oh dear. An Anubis. :D
I just had to make one even though there are a million around. I've had a small Anubis statue in my office that was a gift from a friend in the Department of State, he's almost like a mascot now. Perhaps I should rename him at least. Inpu or Anupu perhaps.
I was going to make a costume for a big-eyed Anubis named "Nunu-chan" to share with you, and maybe to use as a nemesis or something. Sadly, I guess beast heads can't be modified with the head sliders, which is just sad. 
I've created a duo, that you never see together, for some strange reason, they are Sun and Moon.
Obviously Sun looks a lot livelier when hes "flaring", the ultimate flame guru
Moon doesn't have that luxury, but he can dip in and out of Twilight, and land martial arts crescent kicks with uncanny accuracy.
There has also been a temporal distortion which caused an alien to land and join forces although not for totally altruistic purposes it seems. He is from the planet Psychlo, and is known only as Terl. He cannot breathe our atmosphere, but has some back mounted equipment sourced direct into his body to enable him to go inter planetary without much trouble. He's enormous, with claws and an unnerving skill with odd firearms and gadgets.
Laden is a force pushing gravity manipulator who can laden his enemies down with great crushing force. This is the only image we have at the moment, but apparently he has encased his head in a protective helm, to prevent damage from insectoid venom or radiated zombie disease.

Nunu-chan must have a schoolgirl outfit.
The inspiration of Hermes gave Alexandria a lot of abilities. Unfortunately, the ability to breathe underwater was not one of them. Here's Alexandria modeling her diving outfit as she prepares to go to the aid of the Lemurians:
Just a very slight variation on her basic costume, but I really like the way it looks. The medium arched skirt, which feels entirely wrong in most circumstances, gives a great feeling of being streamlined in this context.

This is so much more What Not To Wear than I would have expected from you Hypatian.
