  1. In my little backstory, Convector took the name of his fallen mentor and set out to find his killer in Paragon City. He was a sidekick from age 13 and never really had much time to be
    "just a guy" or "just a kid" as it were. Long story made short, he traced the killing to the Clockwork King and had his vengeance. My development arc with Con was about what happens to a person bent on revenge when they come to grip with the fact that they don't need that revenge in order to become something heroic.

    Convector's story spun off into that of his girlfriend Orika, a Japanese pop addict with a penchant for fast cars. At first I played her as an Ice blaster, but that got old for me. On the one hand I liked her "flashiness", but playing a blaster just wasn't cutting it (no offense). So I made up a story where she had to accept becoming bound to a demon in order to save her father.

    That set me on my current path as scrapper Venemous Hatred. I wrote a series of short stories for the Fellowship of Paragon website about Orika's struggle to accept her decision and to move on. Ven is what her name implies, she is something foul barely held in check by Orika. In many ways Ven's body is a mystical power armor piloted by Orika's spirit. There is no way for her to be "just a girl". In fact there is no way for her to even really be a girl at all. Following the breakup of the Fellowship, she has embarked on a solo journey both professionally and in romance.
