He let his concentration slip from his opponent just slightly to create an energy field behind him, buffering the impact. His energy field hit first, then the slight dampening field, then his body as they crashed through the other wall into...

[/ QUOTE ]

The room they landed in was very peculiar. It was filled with fur and velvet and a large canopy bed. It seemed to be a normal but something was wrong, the walls were lined with weapons and armor of al sorts. “Ah! We have tumbled into my room have we? Well then, this should be very interesting” said the valkyrie as she neared the wall and grabbed two large and rather sinister looking hand axes, “don’t even try to use my weapons, they were all especially made for my hands, but, on the other hand, if you want to try….BE MY GUEST!” she screamed as spun the axes and jumped towards Shiro at an incredible speed.

[ QUOTE ]
Matamoros fell to one knee, but within a few seconds he stood again, cracking his neck. "That's quite some power you have there," he said, raising his assault rifle towards her, the grenade maganize rotating a fresh round in, "but I know you cannot keep up these shields and attacks forever. Your psychic powers are based upon your willpower and I know that you can only stand so much. Soon you will grow weary and you will be all mine!" A grin stretched up in the corner of his mouth under his full-helm as he pulled the trigger, firing a grenade at her.

[/ QUOTE ]

“Ha! Are you really serious” the goddess laughed at the grenade as it zoomed through the air toward the goddess, “Did you forget what happened to your last grenade?”

The grenade drifted through the air but was enveloped, once again, in the shadowy embrace of the shadow charmer. “don’t tell me you forgot about you first dance partner” said the pixie. She grenade was muted and the shadow loosened. “Mommy, I want this man’s blood on my hands you must help our new friend Lenny” she whispered in her characteristic mischievous whisper. The pixie now began to teleport this way and that. She ended up inches in front of Matamoros, her claws trajectory was aiming directly for Matamoros’s heart.

[ QUOTE ]
Perfect. Mischa thought as she drew close to the unconcious villain. Still cloaked, she began to extract this energy and shape it into a entity itself, with just enough intelligence to tell friend from foe.

Now, go and be a nice little diversion. She mentally ordered it before hiding again. The small cloud of twisting purple flew off across the room and began firing beams of energy at the villains, occasionally sending one airborne.

[/ QUOTE ]

“Nice trick you little snail!” said the goddess as she now neared to unconscious Lenny, “But this is not the first time I have dealt with your kind!” The goddess whispered an incantation and became a floating purple apparition. “I will find your deepest fears and make you so miserable that that thing inside you will have no choice but to leave!” said the apparition as it floated into the mind of the warshade woman.

[ QUOTE ]
He launched himself toward his adversary. Their punches landed square on each others chins and they both flew back equal distance. He brought his hand to his chin and craned his neck."Nice punch ya got there ****," he began, then louder so his voice would carry, "But when I get done with ya, I'll deal with the OLD **** on the chandelier."

[/ QUOTE ]

“How dare you refer to my mistress in such a manner, you will pay for your disrespect!” said the valkyrie as she began to sparkle with a sheen which Shiro, an experienced fighter, recognized as some form of invulnerability. The valkyrie charged Shiro in a low fighting stance allowing her hands to slice through the floor as if it were made of water.

[ QUOTE ]
The goddess swung her head at the well aimed insult, and lost just enough of her concentration to keep Jonny Rocket from becoming a rather unsightly mess on the ballroom floor

[/ QUOTE ].

“OH YOU MUST REALLY HAVE A DEATH WISH YOU LITTLE WORM DON’T WORRY, I’M---” The goddesses voice trailed off as she snapped her head to the opposite end of the room towards the pixie.

[ QUOTE ]
Matamoros rolled to the side and quickly retrieved his assault rifle once more, the switch still on 'Full Automatic.' "You want to play, demoness? Alright, let's play." Matamoros squeezed the trigger...

[/ QUOTE ]

The little pixie backed up against the wall revealing panic as Matamoros pulled the trigger. The goddess dashed in between them and glowed a splendid psionic energy. It was a kaleidoscope of pink, purple, and scarlet. Each bullet stopped mere centimeters from the goddess’s perfect eyes as they were lit with a Fiery tears.

“Never will I let anyone harm my darling charmer,” Said the goddess in an eerily calm and echoing voice. “Sweetheart,” said the goddess to the pixie, “mommy, has business to take care of use a jutsu like a good girl and heal yourself a bit”

The pixie stood, feet together and with her hands in a special position, performed a quick jutsu that caused a green energy to spin around her for a few seconds.

“Mother, this is my fight, allow me---” said the pixie before she got cut off.

[ QUOTE ]
But suddenly, one of the henchwenches struck him hard across the jaw, removing his options. Rush lost consciousness as he teleported to the nearest hospital.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
Rush's assistance arrived a moment too late as the mob of henchwomen was lifted off of the floor and scattered in all directions by a blast of dark purple light. The Goddess looked at where the beam had originated from and saw an unusual sight,…..

…….The flying squid swooped down and opened its mouth, firing another blast of purple light which knocked the Pixie off of her feet and sent her sprawling.

[/ QUOTE ]

“Charmer,” shouted the goddess a little shocked but confident that her pixie had been healed enough to with stand the blast, “go to the dark commander and ask him if he has the teleporter jammer up yet. I would myself but telepathy is not a valid use of my power when I need to kill this crazed gunman.”

“yes my mistress” as the girl faded into a shadow.

[ QUOTE ]
The flying squid swooped down and opened its mouth, firing another blast of purple light which knocked the Pixie off of her feet and sent her sprawling. It did a whimsical flip then came nearly to a landing next to Matamoros and in a mindbending display of color it transformed into a hulking yet still semi-transparent creature with glowing eyes that resembled some sort of bipedal rhinocerous.

[/ QUOTE ]

“Ew, I guess I have to dispose of both---” said the goddess until she was cut off

[ QUOTE ]
Mischa let out an unearthly roar and crossed the room in a single step as she teleported in the oncoming mob. The ground and air around her filled with strange light and the villains felt as if some of their energy had been drained away.

[/ QUOTE ]

“Ugh, how did you do that you little garden slug” said the goddess
“Ow! what the %@#$ was that!” said the valkyrie

“No matter” said the goddess, “I still have more than enough power to kill you.” she said as she shot a wave of psionic energy flowing toward Matamoros.

[ QUOTE ]
Out of the corner of his eye he saw the masses of villains closing in, and realized soon he wouldn't have very much room to run.

[/ QUOTE ]

“Oh don’t think I’ve forgotten about you!” said the goddess as she sent barrage of needle sized psionic darts towards the little speed demon, “Even if rush is gone, I still want a manservant” said the malicious beauty as the tiny pink darts converged upon “Johnny”

(( wow, you people write up a storm don’t you! well you may now continue posting and if I got chronology or actions wrong….please bare with me and fix them in your own posts

As the woman closest to the partygoer reaches for one guest, Rush grabs her wrist, twists, and pulls, flipping her over onto her fellow henchwomen. Rush's fists and feet are flurries of movement, striking at their knees, arms, ankles, hips, and other body parts in order to prevent them from advancing any further. With any luck, he'll end up hobbling at least a few of them.

[/ QUOTE ]

One particularly voluptuous vixen seized rush around the waist and brought him to the ground. He was instantly piled upon by a multitude of slutty warriors.

[ QUOTE ]
"Under normal circumstances, my dear, I wouldn't hesitate to kill my foe, but being a young woman has granted you my mercy." He thrusted the taser towards her.

[/ QUOTE ]

The pixie shrieked as the tazer hit her shoulder and filled her tiny form with electricity. Matamoros looked on, and he heard the shriek become maniacal laughter. The electrically charged girl now faced him. Her steel grey eyes were black as twilight and she spoke in a wavering tone, “like I said Before, Nice toys” She seized the sides Matamoros’s head and kissed him with electricity still flowing from the tazer.

“CHARMER!! BE CAREFUL!!” yelled the goddess, revealing a brief moment of compassion

[ QUOTE ]
Shiro hammered his fist directly into his face, knocking himself out of the pyschics manipulation. He shook his head, trying to refocus himself. He heaved a heavy sigh of relief, "That was close." He returned his attention back to the festivities.

[/ QUOTE ]

Another fist hammered into shiro’s temple. “Do you really think I’d let you stand me up!” said the valkyrie as shiro rocketed towards the party guests.

[ QUOTE ]
After this the second pilot mans the gun that seemed to have been modified to fire explosive rounds and began to scare off the freak show as they try for cover as the payload drops forming a single wall covering the breached glass windows and damage done to the wall. While the team with this Dark Commander on the ground made their way to the front door.

[/ QUOTE ]

The dark commander’s communicator crackled again, “Good evening darling,” said a silvery and somewhat distant voice, “this is your employer also known as the “goddess” i am speaking to you through telepathy so I’ll make this quick. Listen closely, these are the threats! One hero dressed in red and two villains One martial artist and one gunman, the others are not to be harmed! If I am impressed with your work, you can expect a triple in your payment, Over darlings. The voice faded delicately.

[ QUOTE ]
"God I love my job" was the last thing that left his mind as he rocketed toward the vixen at neckbreaking speed.

[/ QUOTE ]

“I bet you do love your job,” said the goddess as she now levitated Johnny in front of her in a psionic bubble, “ If you havn’t guessed by now, I’m a psychic and I see that you know that little annoyance by the name of Rush. Well then, I think it would be fun if I made you my manservant,” The Goddess closed her eyes for a short second, concentrated, and then gazed directly at Johnny. Her beauty became radiant as it flowed into Johnny’s mind. It was if she was directly gazing into his soul.

[ QUOTE ]
His punch landed hard on the valkyre's chest skull, cracking it. "Sorry to cut in like this tramp, but I will be your dance partner for the evening."

[/ QUOTE ]

“ How dare you do know how much money that titanium cost!” screams the valkyrie now furious. The valkyrie tosses her new playmate on nearest pile of glass. “you will pay for this in blood!” the valkyrie screams as she picks up one of the pieces of broken titanium and stabs it in the marble floor. She now selects two particularly sharp marble slabs and charges Shiro holding them like two twisted stone swords.

[ QUOTE ]
Focusing his attention on Shiro, he looses a blast of energy from his outstretched fists, attempting to knock the heroic newcomer through the last remaining window. "Sorry, 'ero, but you weren't invited," Lenny intones menacingly at the newest target of his rampant aggression.

[/ QUOTE ]

“I truly am impressed Lenny” says the Goddess now looking the wave of sheer power now heading towards Shiro “RUSH! Look around you, do you really think you can fight off all of my lovelies?!” shouted the goddess with a sadistic smile now creeping across her perfectly sculpted face. Her harpies were now so close to the party guests that they could smell the pure fear radiating from the herd.

[ QUOTE ]
Matamoros rose from his knees, the girl still clutching his arms, and threw himself, with the girl facing towards it, into a pillar. He felt an arm go free and with the other arm he tossed the girl off...but she looked relatively unscathed.

[/ QUOTE ]

“Ow, that hurt” the pixie said in a mockingly pouty voice as she immerged covered in scratches. Each scratch was leaking ribbons of black vapor creating a truly horrifying figure. “I love it when men play hard to kill” said the tiny voice as it began to fade again. “ Let’s play another game” said the tiny disembodied voice “Its called Gut the gunman. Find me before my blades find your stomach. starting…..NOW!” her figure was now completely unnoticeable.

[ QUOTE ]
he attempts to knock her off the chandelier with a flying kick. He puts as much speed and strength into the attack as he can muster.

[/ QUOTE ]

Rush is cut of inches before her reaches the goddess by the valkyrie who, he now realizes, can fly. They shoot across the room and they tumble through a large stone pillar.

“Oooooh, this is interesting,” says the valkyrie now straddling Rush against the rubble of the pillar, “I do hope you know what happens next?”

“Yep!” says Rush as he uses the rather awkward positioning to his advantage and flips her on her head.

“Fine, the gloves come off!!” The valkyrie ripped off her dress revealing a truly wicked (if not slutty) costume. It consisted of thong bottoms and fishnets and a skimpy flared shirt just covering her chest and everything was covered in red metallic skulls. “Enjoying the view? Regretfully, it will be the last thing you see” she says as she tightens her gloves and then tackles him.

[ QUOTE ]
He clutched his helm again in pain, dropping the grenade. It managed to roll slightly further into the room before exploding.

[/ QUOTE ]

Unfortunately, the bomb was muted by the dark cloud of deep black smoke twisting around it. “I’m not called the shadow charmer for nothing” says the little girl as her head appears in the twisting ribbons of smoke containing the flash. “Lets play” says the pixie as she rips off her dress revealing an adorably evil short robe and boots. She grabbes Matamoros’s arms and twistes them above his head. She then puts her feet on his back and stands leaning on Matamoros's broad sholders at a 45 degree angle still holding his arms. The two of them stand there like a torturous sculpture.

[ QUOTE ]
Shiro unconsciously cracked his knuckles and craned his neck. He loved a good fight and this certainly looking like a good fight. A smile snuck across his lips as he walked confidently into the mass of socialities trying to blend in to get a better view.

[/ QUOTE ]

“Lenny, so glad of you to join me,” said the goddess as Lenny drifted above the carnage towards her. “Now, take care of the ruffian at the door, I sense he is also intending on ruining my slaughter. I swear the next person to crash this party will feel my true wrath.”

((You guys are really good at this! keep up the good work))

((The Valkyrie attacked Rush with the banister ps. rush you might wanna watch out you have apsychic wave shooting towards you ))

(( TO everyone participating in this Rp the code for my three characters from this point on is as follows:
Pixie: THe girl with blades strapped to her wrists
Valkyrie: THe amazon woman with super strength
Goddess: THe perfect psychic woman

THanks))

"Impressive, Lenny keep this up and you will not be sorry when this is all over" said the goddess as she watches the wave of luminecent energy flow through the air towards rush.

"Rush dear," said the goddess, "dont worry about the room, i'll have it repared by next week at the latest" she let out a laugh that resonated through the ballroom as she jumped from chandelier wire to wire in a mockingly whimsical fasion.

"oh my," Said the Goddess now levitating the Velvet Seductress upside down in a psychic bubble. Rush drools at the sight of The amazon's dress slipping up her thigh as the goddess perched on the wire says "You mus'nt let your enemy gain the upper hand Seductress. Now get down there and make your mistress proud." She tosses her toward the shocked rush and she recovers in mid air. Rush easily doges the lusty metiorite but doesn't expect the shockwave when she hits the floor. the temptress rises from her crowched position and she flips her hair, "ready for round two darling?"

She grabs the second half of the banister she didnt destroy and hurls it lengthwise, clothslining Rush. Rush gets up, recovers for a few seconds, dusts himself off and says.....

“WHY DO YOU CLODS ALWAYS BREAK MY GORGEOUS WINDOWS? THAT’S IT!!?” The Goddess slid like quicksilver through the air passing both Lenny who seemed to be considering her question carefully. She also slid over the party guests, now being chased about the room by her small army of lovelies. She stops just short of Matamoros. He skillfully followed her slighted movement and when she was almost upon him, he fired a barrage of psionic-disruption bullets from the muzzle of his gun that forced the elegant goddess to turn and flee.

The bullets stopped as the bladed pixie placed sliced the bullets out of the air, protecting her mistress. “Impressive toy you have there,” said the tiny voice as it faded along with her form as she disappeared and reappeared behind him. She slashed at the gunman and he rolled out of the way barely escaping her knifed wrists. “You will feel pains incomprehensible to the human mind as conveyed by the true charmer of shadows” The girl dashed forward, claws outstretched and her eyes full of homicidal delight.

The goddess slid through the air away from the new battle to focus her attention on the conflict brewing 30 feet away.

Across the room, “Rush” had decided to attack the valkyrie with a complex martial arts move he had affectionately dubbed, “Cobra Strike.” After executing the attack he used the woman’s neck as a springboard and landed the banister behind her. She cracked her graceful neck and turned to face her assailant. “My My, You’re a playful little thing aren’t you? Saddly, you dont know the first thing about foreplay with me, I'm invincible” she said in a lustful moan that would bring any man to his knees. “Now, please allow the Velvet Seductress to assist you to a horrible death.” The woman gave a swift kick to the banister and it toppled from the staircase as if it were made of mud. This caused rush to tumble to the floor where he recovered with agility.

“Darling, try not to destroy the room, there no reason to destroy the house, now is there” Said the woman as she now stood, perfectly balanced on one of the wires supporting the grand chandelie looking down at the chaos below.

((I LOVE THIS!! lol oops it looks like the last two got a little out of order ))

The Goddess snaps her head to look at the oddly dressed figure crashing through the window next to the first. He introduces himself as Mean Lenny which frankly, disgusts her.

"You two!" she shouts with a hint of bloodlust, "how dare you crash through my magnificent windows! Wait, i don't care who you are!" The woman drops her glass of cognac and and it floats in the air for a few seconds. Like a bullet, the glass of amber liquid shoots towards the two figures. The clawed pixie standing at the foot of the stairs throws a flaming dart at the glass, setting the liquid aflame as it races to the two figures.

The one called "Mean Lenny" twitches his eye ant the liquid is suspended aflame in the air. "Ah a psychic, how absolutely marvelous. Let us see how you compare to the true Mistress of Desires." The goddess’s eyes flicker a brilliant purple and their psyches become intertwined. She senses the evil in the cur’s heart and they release the mental hold on each other.

“I see, Help me with this job and you get more than your name in the papers. You see, the vice president of portal corp. development is in this room and if you help me you can have his job. Or if it suits you better, you can take the work for Allure inc. under me. I only ask one thing, KILL THAT FESTERING BOIL BESIDE YOU HE IS A HERO!” Now regaining her composure, “Now if you’ll excuse me, I still have socialites to kill, CHARMER, SEDUCTRESS, have your fun” *she smiles seductively as she awaits Lenny’s decision*

The two other women begin to close in on the increasingly panicked herd when Lenny speaks……

((OCC Please help me with this rp. the main character is my new villain and this will get me into the full villainous spirit))

The room is made golden by the light of the chandelier. The music in the background is a soft waltz that charms the guests into pleasant laughter and dance. The room is filled with a high class crowd drinking the finest champagne and merlot the earth had to offer.

The lights above dim and two great spotlights illuminate the top of two grand staircases dripping with deep red cloth. The music fades and then transforms into a strong and swift tango.

The curtains rustle and out walk two gorgeous women. This first, a mere child no more than 18 years of age at the most. This tiny girl wears a delicate ruffled gown with silk embroidery. Her eyes sparkle with mysterious charm as the floats effortlessly to the left of the curtains.

The second woman is a valkyrie. Standing at a good 6 feet at least, she gives off and air of both dominance and pure sensuality. Her golden dress shimmers as if it were woven out of champagne, glistening and intoxicating the eye. It hugs every curve of her perfect body and she seductively steps to the right side of the curtains.

The two women drew the curtain revealing a goddess. The perfect woman standing before the guests. Her auburn hair drifts about her gown that seems to be made from the very essence of crimson. She and the other two make the entire party coo at their beauty.

The goddess sips a glass of fine amber cognac which she now lowers from her lips. She takes a deep breath and says, “Welcome my adoring friends and colleagues. You have all been asked to participate in this most auspicious occasion for one reason, you are perfection. You are the highest ranked in society and that…my dear friends… *she sips her cognac* you have to die.

The crowd reels and gasps in sheer disgust as the goddess begins to laugh a laugh that would wake Satan himself. The little pixie standing to her left jumps over the railing and walks toward the guests with a pure insanity now glowing in her eye revealing her hands which are now in clad a set of sleek claws. The statuesque woman on her right walks down the stairs and at the end of the banister she rips of the stone cherub and crushes it with her bare hands. The goddess now lets fourth another laugh and says, “Oh don’t worry, your businesses and positions will soon be filled by a loyal member of The Twilight Masquerade!”

The people are now in a full out panic as they look around and see more gorgeous but lethal woman appearing from behind pillars and out of the shadows.

A crash is heard and a figure bursts through the window across from the now herded guests. The goddess snaps her head around to see who it. She allows a small wince to cross her face when she realizes it to be…

Anyone heard if we are going to get a free costume repec with the release or the ablity to adjust size and features at least once for all current characters.

Maybe a tailer mission for the feature readjustment for example.

[/ QUOTE ]

This is what I have been wondering for weeks. Since red names are posting in this thread, maybe this is the place to ask. We must be allowed to adjust body type with old heroes. I'd prefer if we were given it once for free, but we definitely need the option. I've got 14 heroes across 2 different servers, and I'm not about to re-start any of them just to redesign them with new costume options.

And thanks to Megajoule for the link to the screenshots. Very informative, getting to see some of the new menus and options and how it will work. Some nice shots of the body and head sliders in there.

[/ QUOTE ]

You can see the sliders in action at gamespot, the screenshot with the different models (female/huge/male) is at the character creation screen.

but the is another screenshot from within ICON and you can play with the sliders for body parts, different sub-body models and the height.

please please please let them give us a respec............ OH ALMIGHTY DEVS IF YOU CAN HEAR ME PLEASE GIVE US A HERO SIZE/PROPRTION RESPEC................amen

*cough cough* sorry *~~Ahem~~* AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEE THIS ROCKS!!!!!

Lilac and Lilo, still bustling about the building, suddenly felt a huge rush of magical energy. Torrent, finally finished, sends a huge tangled mass of water tentacles into the building and they seem to be supporting the building. Lilo and Lilac glance over to Torrent and they see him straining emensly. They also see that the magical symbol, that he took so long on, is now begining to bend back and fourth and the network of tentacles were slowly begining to pulse with a radiant blue energy. Lilo accidentaly touches one and realizes that they were not just thin ribbons of water, but they were also Torrent's consciousness! She looks at a 5th column soldier nearby and sees him wriving in pain as all the water in his body is being drawn to the lucid ribbon. Lilo tries to comminicate to Torrent through the tentacles but there was only one message found in the mass of concentration for her : GET LILAC AND THE SURVIVERS OUT NOW!! I WILL TRY TO CONTROL WHO I DRAIN BUT I CANT DO IT FOREVER!!!!

Terrance Dylan Kai, aka. Torrent, is walking through Atlas Park when he passes his old high school, Paragon High. He sits on one of the benches in front of the school and rememberes all of the good times he had there. Just as he is entering the school, he hears a large crash and sees a huge squad of fifth Column tearing a nearby building apart. He immediately rushes into a nearby alley and once again becomes, Torrent, master of the waters. He formes a mist cloud around himelf and flies up to the roof of the high school. He begins writing elegant magical symbols in the air, preparing to douse the flames that were now nearing the school. He is just finishes writing his "submerge" spell, when he sees various teenagers running, flying , and jumping out of the school in obviously homemade costumes. Torrent seales his spell, stores it on his arm as tatoo, and watches as the energetic newbie heros storm into the building. He doesn't want any of them to get hurt, yet he wants to give them this chance to shine, so he startes writing new, less complicated, spells in the air and attacing them to his body so that he'll be ready if things got out of hand. Torrent takes a closer look at the teens and noticeds the composition of their team. He sees a lot of psychics and blasters of all shapes and sizes but for some reason, he sees no martial artists. This, he knows, will cause trouble later in the battle. After about 20 minutes of just watching the young heroes, he notices that the battle is not going so well so he begins to fly toward the action. In the distance, he sees the figure of a woman flying toward him. He takes a closer look and notices that it is his good freind....................
