History: This blog is the third incarnation, and started as a paper RPG & desktop gaming blog.  After starting the MMO City of Heroes days after its launch in 2004,  It developed into one dedicated to that MMO, as it remained for nearly eight years. On November 30, 2012 that MMO was shut down by the company NCSoft despite an outpouring of fan support and community outrage.  Starting In December 2012, I'm going to be opening up the focus of the blog to cover ANYTHING gaming I'm playing, be it PC, XBox 360, iPad, Dragon*Con, etc.

That being said, their will be images from various games posted on this blog.  No claim here is made to the games, and no intent to infringe on any copyrights are inferred.   Copyrights are property of the respective companies.


Rules: 

NO SPAM is welcome nor allowed.

ALL unsolicited off-topic posts and links will be removed, no matter how old the post used to hide them.

ALL SPAM posts will be reported.

Comments on-topic are welcome.

EMAIL any legitimate hyperlinks to me and if on topic, they'll be added to my LINK page.

Cover of the Day - June 22, 2012

I know -- I've been getting away from these -- Toon of the days are a lot less work sorry to say.   That being said I've got plenty of those lined up all the way into mid August already.    I should have no problem keeping daily updates going well past Dragon*Con.  I doubt I can do daily covers -- but I can at least set up a couple a week for a while.  MAYBE more, if I have some inspiration and some good luck with screenshots.

Here is the first cover for another toon of mine -- rampant altism strikes again.   I played around with the creator and found the FIRE/ICE stuff under what is usually reserved for cybernetic arms.  One such allowed for complete replacement of the right arm from shoulder down.    I noticed that almost all of the attacks for Street Justice were right-handed punches save 1 kick and 1 knee attack.   I got inspired and made a teen hero (Street Justice/Regen Scrapper) based around the concept of being magically contaminated by minute shrapnel in his hand after being too close to one of the Supernatural events that takes place every so often.  He wakes up the next day to a hand covered in stone.  Not good for someone who had been showing promise as a piano player. MAGI stabilized it only after it had already transformed his arm.  

Originally I had him pictured as much older.  That was not to be the case though.   I noticed an old friend running an alt in a new kids group -- "The Caped Combat Kids Crusaders".   It's a "kids" group, and based a few years younger than the usual teen groups.   So a quick visit to Icon's and he's good to go for this group.  I've had VERY good luck with him-- several recipe drops have funded him well (1 for 80 million another for 60 million -- just to start).   I've already got around 249 badges, and have got over a dozen beacons for the group. Thanks to all the extra funds, I've even donated 100K prestige.    The group is proving to be quite fun - a handful of core players already, a coallition , unique base builder .  The initial base room is a treehouse!

Costume has undergone some evolution, and I've currently got 2 someone different ones, and a casual outfit.
