Finally having fun with CoV

[jeffxandra]

I've tried a couple of different characters, well three, with City of Villains but none really got me going. There were:

Pele's Fury - the Fire/Earth Brute remake of my trial character who didn't feel right after I couldn't call her Fuel (the trial name).

Chauncey Gardiner - the Plants/Poison Dom who was just a weird rip-off of the Being There character but I didn't really feel like playing an old guy.

Alwayz - the Claws/Dark Stalker who I actually did enjoy somewhat. The look was right, but I just don't like Stalkers. It's not fun for me.

Well tonight I made a Mercs/Traps mastermind and I finally felt like a super-villain. Maybe it's the henchmen thing, I dunno. But I finally had some fun with it.

You made and played a Super-villain baded on Peter Sellers' character in Being There?

...

You are SO much stranger than I am. How did I not spot this before?

Miss you buddy.

His tagline was, "He likes to watch... ...you die!"

As the number of henchmen start to rack up, having them (in your case) let go with a long burst of machine gun fire all at once on a target is exceptionally satisfying. :)

Perhaps we should form a villain group?

rheoryn and I batted the idea about, the name "Random Night Rogues" came up.

I like it. :)

I've heard worse names.

Awesome. I just started playing a villain: went with a wrapped-up look with goggles, and stalker. Then wound up choosing the hidden talent. And realized, without particularly meaning to, that I apparently have reinvented Claude Rains' most celebrated role. Only stabbier than the original. Heh.

What level is your stalker? My MM is 6.

[momentrabbit.livejournal.com]

Eight, I think. I'm just off of Mercy Island.

My MM's Sinister Cyborg and just dinged. I should be able to catch-up pretty quickly
