My Superheroes


You have seen my superhero friends, now it's time you meet the truely awesome superheroes in Champions Online (CO).

Mine, of course! =P

While I love roleplaying games (RPG), I don't really roleplay in game, as in I don't usually speak with funny accent or behave in a weird manner.

I did however, wrote a very brief background for each of my superheroes.

LunaShade, elf, Marksman

Archery holds a special place in my heart, so it's easy to decide on which archtype (class) to create as my first hero.

all leather

Background story:

The elf maiden LunaShade has been abducted by an unknown entity from her lush homeworld in another universe. A universe where the most advanced technology was centuries behind compared to this one.

LunaShade keeps to herself and is determined to find out who or what has brought her here. She seeks a way home.

LunaShade is a ranged damage dealer, not very durable, but deadly.

I am not afraid of big bad muscular punk!

no introduction of LunaShade is complete without a screenshot of her with the moon ^_^
Next I wanted a hero with spells or magical powers, the Glacier's powers seemed a bit like my frost mage's in World of Warcraft. So Glacier it is!

Soul, human, Glacier

I like Ironman, so I want my superhero to be clad in a high tech power armour, hence the awesome cool looking costume. (If you disagree you are just jealous =P)

polished metal and glowing eye piece!

Background story:

Soul is an enigma. He is cold and borderline antisocial. Some believed that he is a brilliant engineer who has designed and manufactured his advanced suit of armour that generates freezing attacks from vapour. While the truth about Soul may not be known, it's clear from his actions that he is a judicator of justice and peace.

eat my ice shard!

The Glacier is supposingly a tank according to the maker of CO. While the archtype has hugh health, the powers are more towards crowd control, like chill and root.

stay there and eat my ice blast

Not having any skill with inherently high threat or to hold aggro, I am rather puzzled by this supposingly tank class. Still haven't figured out how to properly tank with this hero.

just gotta have a screenshot of this aloof and enigmatic hero =P

So I have a DPS and a tank, naturally I created a healer next! =)

Breeze, human/angel, Mind

Background story:

Breeze is a carer. She has delved deep into mysticism and obtained immense power which she uses mainly to heal or to support others in need. Breeze's sacred actions has moved the Goddess of Healing, whom granted her a divine halo, angel wings, as well as turning her irises pure white. Do not cross the carer, for she is equally capable of delivering divine vengeance.

The powers pre-determined for this archtype are relevant for her healer/support role, so I got a hang of playing this class fairly soon.

blocking with her telekinetic shield, something she does a lot of

My modus operandi for this hero so far is to cast the ranged AoE DoT power, then block until the mobs die or until I need to refresh the DoT, or heal myself.

Geek dictionary:
- AoE = area of effect
- DoT = damage over time


the occasional Ego Blast when I want to end a battle faster

just a really nice screenshot of Breeze, very divine!

Not very satisfy with Glacier as a tank, I tried the other archtype, the Behemoth.

Armour, human, Behemoth

Yes yes, I like my high tech power armour costume so much (cause it's freaking awesome!) I reused it with a different colour scheme and eye piece.

Behemoth is strong, really!

Background story:

Armour is the silent type, he rarely speaks of his past. Born with superhuman strength which is further augmented by the power suit developed for him by the multibillionaire S.E., Armour is a force to be reckoned on.

with great strength comes the capability of lifting huge stuff...

... and the capabiltiy to inflict great pain on the bad guys. Ouch!

This archtype has pre-determined powers that I am more familiar with as a tank: high health pool, high defence or damage mitigation, skills that generate threat, AoE stun, ranged intercept.

when that sign appears above the enemy's head, it's time to block

This will probably be my preferred tank character. I will still try to figure out the Glacier of course.

shiny metal and glowing eye piece, of course! =P

keeping watch over the citizens

So there you have it, my superheroes and their awesome costume. Remember, you see it here first.

If you ever found any other heroes with similar costume, you know they are just copycats!

Understandable, these costumes are just too cool and too awesome everybody wants them! =P
