Player-created NPC in game?

Hi, everybody,

I just remembered that, a good year ago, there was a contest where several website communities had offline costume contests, with the winning costume of each contest being sent to Paragon Studios. Paragon Studios was then supposed to pick the costume they liked best and put it into the game as an NPC.


I never heard about the results. Did they ever show us the winning costumes, or did that NPC already enter the game?

According to a new interview on Massively it sounds like that character may fill the gap that Statesman leaves in the Freedom Phalanx (not as leader though).

We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...

The only contests I'm aware of are the one we had at launch, where Numina was created by a player, and one we're going to have in the future that will see one of our heroes joining the Phalanx.

See, that's what I was thinking, but the OP made me think that I had just missed something.

No, I wasn't talking about Numina, this was merely a regular NPC, not a signature hero. It was something about Going Rogue, I believe... Now that I remember that, I should ask Google again.

Found it:
This contest is what I was talking about.

I would have liked to see some of the submissions, but the only response I got from the partner website was "you didn't win"...

According to that contest the selected character was going to be an NPC in Studio 55 (The Dance Area in Praetoria).

So is there any unique looking NPCs in there?
