Nothing serious, but I need to drop out of all of the games and deal with things for at least a few months.

The thoughts are picked up by SCAMP, but they come in scattered, or appear to be scattered. It's a thought process that is erratic and almost animalistic, very unnerving. What you can make out though is even more so!

The man with the yellow eyes and bright violet hair thinks crazy thoughts. He thinks of his 'allies' as playthings, of the mutants below as more playthings, everyone being fairgame for the slaughter. Emotions of sadness float up, but not for the reasons you would think. Confusion swamps the mind, an internal battle between another? Thoughts of a smokestack burn into the final glimpses of the mind, and a dark curiosity.

SCAMP is unable to pick up on any lines of inner dialogue, only base emotions and mental pictures.

Anyways, yeah, those were the golden years for me. It was in that community, that my interest in good story writing and character creation kicked in, which eventually lead its way to my DnD work and its other RPG cousins.

My three main characters were:

Shivan Manifestation, my very first level 50 Rad/Rad Defender. For the longest time, I didn't choose his debuff anchors, and everyone hounded me on it. I learned the error of my ways with a quick character respec

CABAL 2, my very first level 50 Robotics/Traps Mastermind. He was very fun to play and served as the focal point for many of my CoX Fan-fiction stories, which were posted as actual missions in that virtual mission creating tool in-game.

Fun fact about the first two I mentioned, they are both the same person, just from different times in his life! In a nutshell, Shivan Manifestation became an influential leader in Paragon City, founding his own research company known as ShivanTech Industries. His main rivals were of course Crey Industries and Aeon Technologies. Over time he became disillusioned about his role as a hero and paragon of the city and went rogue! He donned the mask of CABAL 2 and systematically built an army of mutant cyborgs of his own! His goal? To overthrow the current system of supers and build it from scratch, in hopes preparing everyone for the coming invasion...

It was at that point that a new timeline formed, with CABAL 2 having succeeded but at a great cost. A new world order was established, heroes were banned and hunted down, villians were no more and order was kept by the World Defense Force (WDF). It was from this new age that CABAL 2, having hidden himself from everyone for years, emerges once again, but this time as Shivan Manifestation once more! He makes use of of the resources he collected in secret of the years, as well as the remains of his old army, and forges a new heoric alliance, one that was similiar to the Freedom Phalanx in the days of past. He crushed the corrupt WDF and gave the world its final warning of the invasion he had foreseen, the very one that is on its way right now.

All villian groups that survived like Shivan did, all the heroes and various in-game factions, they all came together under one banner, throwing away past grudges and ties to help repel... That's as far as I got, literally. The servers went down for good and I didn't get to finish that story. Everyone would have been able to play it, had I been given more time .

Anyways, my third main was actually silly one called Chocolate Thunda. His back story was his own, but suffice to say, he was my main healer who walked all paths of morality in the game, the good, the bad, and the gray zones in between. His mental state was crazy, like LG's, but sane like Hot Streaks, and sometimes brilliant like Symbiosis', in his own twisted way. He was loads of fun to play and his theme was chocolate. In-game, he was the owner of his own Chocolate Factory and Sweets/Candy Monopoly. Infamous in reputation, exalted by many for his business like qualities and genius in the fields of candy craft, no one dared get in the way of his business deals, and if they did, they were reminded why they shouldn't have!

Ah, how I could go on about each of my characters and how much work I put into them, those were the Golden days for me...
