Titan Network

So, yeah, we are in the post apocalyptic era now.  :-[
Let's rebuild what we can and keep the community alive.

This is Coffin, formerly known on CoH boards as Coffin, global was @Koffin.
Mostly played on Virtue, but started on Infinity at launch.
Skyfighter, Osirian, Inviktus, Red Reaver, Dune Hawk, Boomtastic and a lot more.

Experienced lurker, altaholic, costume enthusiast.

Who else is here? :)

Father Xmas hanging out my shingle here for now.

@houtex, Pinnacle.

I make weird characters such as Brawling Humiliator (Solo only, Street sweep only, Brawl only/WP Brute, to 50, then teamed for Incarnate stuff) and Total Dependent (no real offense in rad, helpful Ice defense, Team only oriented Defender 50)

And general wise-*** of Pinnbadges.

Pinnacle Represent!

<==== Tanstaafl

Whoever I am, I am not here.  I would have to be lacking Virtue to be here.

Electric-Knight, your friendly neighborhood uh... electric... knight?  :P

@Zethustra - pretty much only on Virtue

And I just finally changed my bookmark toolbar and put this forum in the old one's place.

I'm looking forward to keeping in touch and... hopefully, finding ourselves back in the game some day and, hopefully, continuing on to something even greater some day... but I'll take what I can get for the moment.  ;D

Was everfreefire, @L'thes, general nobody running around Virtue.

Mostly found on Yumi Eryuha, Celeste Seusen, Lady Mirriella, Meyami Kitsuna or Mirria...Or one of my uncounted alts, I suppose.

Same name everywhere I go.

Player of Hyakki, Anmitsu Shinobi, Lock and Load Lari, and Clairene on Virtue

I may not post here much, but I was Organica on the forums and that's the name here... though I was Shinobu to most of my friends in the game.

Did my final night blog post @ http://postalvalhalla.blogspot.com/2012/11/90-days-to-apocalypse-last-day-91.html (http://postalvalhalla.blogspot.com/2012/11/90-days-to-apocalypse-last-day-91.html)

I'm here.  I posted to the official CoH forums as JohnRobey17.  Next time (should there be one) I'll have to invent a more clever secret identity than appearing simply as myself.  I should probably note that my global in CoH was @Kristoff von Gelmini as some people know me better by that name.   

'Sup guys. I was the same Little David you saw on the City of Heroes forums and in-game. Some of my alts:

Corrupted Haruspex (Villain, Magic Psi/Psi Dominator)
Wildfire Pete (Praetorian Resistance, Natural Thugs/Thermal Mastermind)

Mike Jules XII (Villain, Natural Mercenaries/Traps Mastermind)
Cerenkov E-RADS (Hero, Technology Rad/Rad Defender)

Hamikini (Hero, Science Super Strength/Stone Tanker)

Virtue: Rad Volcan, Anodizer, Dark Brane, Ion Fuser, Plasmodian

Pinnacle: Banelord, Collider, Doctor Howser, Duke Nukem MD, Dutch Schaeffer

I started on Pinnacle at launch in 2004, played a lot for 3 years then took a break for LOTRO, WoW but always came back here and there even before f2p (I never minded resubbing to CoH).

Virtue was home from 2009 onward.

Tiriahna KnightRose. Executive Officer of the KnightHawk's supergroups. My global is @Tiriahna KnightRose.

KnightHawk Prime here, I was the Commanding Officer of the KnightHawks SuperGroups, my global was boring and obvious, @knighthawk prime. ;]

Have you met my lovely wife?

2cp. ;]

@Blue Phaser here.  Blue Phaser was on Freedom, with a couple of villains I had.  I mostly played on Protector (variety of toons; heroes & villains) and Liberty with my Squadron Supreme homage toons.

Made a lot of good friends on all of these servers. 

Damn, I miss the game already.

:(

@JamesBonnell... or @James_Bonnell in city of heroes.

Infinity:
Heroes Kinetic Barbie, Dirtmaster, Firewarden, Jo D'arc, Clone Arranger, Jennie Hayden
Villains Shadowboxer Mark 4, Dominic Black, Angry Adeline, Omega Klaw, Vandal Von Grun, Vivian Von Grun

Virtue: some but not as memorable

One of the leaders of Trapsters on Triumph, back in the day (Commander O'Neal).

Sounds like I missed out on some things since I could not swing logging in for the last night, but ... I got characters extracted and screenshots. 

Felderburg on the forums, @The Holy Flame in game. From Pinnacle, and inventor of the second place slogan: The only server that faceplants before a fight!

Lurked in CoH more than interacted, but I had fun and played with good people.

Sad to see my first MMO go.

Eternally and forever stuck in the void where Atlas Park 33 once used to exist.

Tidbit here from Pinnacle, my main hero server. Played a lot also on Triumph. And some on Libery, Infinity, and Freedom.

Lace of freedom server. also known as Pikachu/Pikavolt, Sharshen, MoonFox, Whiskers, VoidDragon(my only villain)But most importantly...Lace!

And about 70 more alts, of much lesser play.  I'm glad I thought about this, given another week I might have forgotten some of them.

Pogoman from the Virtue server here. My globals were pogoman and pogoman2. on the coh forums I was pogothulu.

@klaw and _klaw_ on the forums (always first on the list of who's online :))

I switched between Triumph and Freedom servers.

My favourite toon to play was Thool my faceless dark/dark corr.

Hotaru from the forums, @Hotaru in game. Hotaru, Cannibal Clown, Micro Jackson, and Sister Incinerator among others on Victory.

Here's to the greatest online community I've ever known!

This may give the wrong impression that there are less people still interested than there are (http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/5356/cityofheros7years.jpg) (I read somewhere the playerbase is around 15 million, but I can't find a source if anyone has? :)) since most people do not read forums - on 'star trek online' there is this post (http://www.webcitation.org/query?url=http://forums.startrekonline.com/showpost.php?p=2497782) dated April 2010: "we have over 100,000 active players who do not post on the forums" from  when their total players was... around 100k... So, that's probably the most scifi/tech orientated online RPG{*} having 1% or less people posting on the forums, and instead keeping in touch more casually with a) ingame chat [obviously we can no longer count on that] b) facebook and alternatives (diaspora!!!) [very few people use twitter, it's a similar phenomenon to forums in that twitter and forum communities often kind of exist in a bubble from the rest unless say, the "normal" media reports on something in twitter - good for that, but shouldn't be relied on])

{*} (which I don't play cos it's well, just pretty boring really, tried it and it seems to be very much a "franchise game" trying to rely on people that are fans rather than how it was advertised as being genuinely *exploring* new worlds with rich stories and depth rather than just auto-generated grind, not endorsing it at all just using it as one of the few examples I can find of a games company officially admitting the people who actually engage with them are a minority)

Also you posted it in the General forum which doesn't really have much posting going on, I think most people have the Save Paragon one bookmarked since a lot of the subforums aren't really used and just clutter (that should probably get fixed) compared to the big active SAVE PARAGON CITY one that kinda stands out. :)

Anyway yeah, signing in :)

@Atlantea     from Primarily Virtue server. (though a smattering of alts on Champion, Infinity, and Justice)

Mains:
Cyberman 8 - Scrapper - Martial Arts/Super Reflexes/Fighting Pool/Body Mastery
Movement Powers: Superspeed and Superleap
Notes: Cyberman 8 - if you saw him, and had been around in the early 60s or new enough anime history to spot the reference was nearly a straight homage to 8-Man (or to use his American sobriquet - "Tobor The Eighth Man").

He was created almost entirely as a result of the Samurai Costume Set that became available for Veterens in 2006. The "hat" brim sparked an old old memory when I was looking at it on a round helmet, and I evolved the rest of the costume from there and reference to old pics of the show.

He became so much more than that homage though. Something in him resonated with me. I came up with a complete backstory that dovetailed with his original concept and brought it forward in to Paragon City.

I thought about what it would be like to be the "ghost in the machine". A human mind - NOT an AI - residing in a "positronic matrix". I rejected the whole cyberpunk "angst" thing so prevalent in shows like "Ghost in the Shell". Reasoning that this is a 74 year old man who has gotten over any of that long ago. He's seen almost as much as Statesman. Including magic that reacts to him as a living being. He KNOWS he has a soul. He sees himself as human. If pressed, he'd concede he's using a "prosthetic body and brain".

I lavished concept details on how he worked. I created other costumes for him, but wore the original most often, and was surprised how many times someone would send me a tell complimenting me on the homage and not report me! In fact just in the last hours before shutdown I received a final compliment along the lines of "Congrats on rocking the 8-Man look for so many years!"

Kara Skye - Controller - Gravity Control / Kinetics / Psionic Mastery and Leadership Pool
Movement Power: Flight (Wings)
Notes: Kara was made because of a friends character from a table-top RPG. The striking thing about how that other character was portrayed was that the player took pains to role-play the downsides of having a 15+foot wingspan as well the advantages. I made Kara's look initially attempting to always keep her back free of clothing that would restrict her wings (later I relaxed that a little bit).

I also took the "realism" a little further. Even with a 15+ wingspan, she shouldn't be able to fly aerodynamically. I came up with the idea of her using some form of TK or Gravity powers to negate her mass and/or directing "pulses" of TK force downwards with her wings.

About the same time, I was playing Mass Effect, and the whole idea of Biotics combined with all of the above intersected. Thus she became a Gravity/Kinetics Controller. Which went completely against my usual tendencies of making melee-based characters. I struggled a bit with her in the early levels, but about the time she hit the mid 20s... WOW.

And when color tinting of powers became available, I re-colored all of her power effects a deep blue - matching the biotic effects from Mass Effect.

And I always took pains to never use any environmental emote that would intersect her wings with a wall or the floor. That 15+ ft wingspan is still as much of an inconvenience as it is a blessing. YOU try stuffing yourself into a compact car with those! Or sit in a normal chair, or go to a movie theater. On the other hand - FLIGHT.

And if she hugged you, she did so with both her arms AND her wings. ^_^


Lily the Diamond - Brute - Super Strength / Willpower / Mu Mastery
Movement power: Superleap
Notes: Lily has the distinction of being the only character I ever took full circle through the alignment process. Started as villain, went hero. Last 3 months I tried doing as much hero side content as I could with her, while taking her vigilante, final week before shutdown I took her back to Villain, and on the very Last Day - Nov 30th - she earned her final Alignment badge and then I nudged her right past and into Rogue status. I never thought of her as a hardened Villain, just someone who refused to adhere to anyone's rules but her own.)



Sassinak - Blaster - Dual Pistols / Energy Manipulation / Electrical Mastery
Movement Power: Technically none (she got around via Ninja Run/leap and temp jet packs and Rocket Board)
Notes: NOT an homage to the character from the Anne McCaffrey novel of the same name. I just liked the name and decided to use it on a character. Sass was my first and main Praetorian. Started as a Responsibility Loyalist and wound up leaning toward helping the saner parts of the resistance (the Wardens) at the end of the 1-20 Praetorian arc. I had a LOT of fun RPing the whole "responsibility versus power" angle. And mostly kept her consistent with a personal code of honor and service to others. I did allow her to do Mr. G's arc long enough to lay the smack-down on Reese. :) And she let Vanessa Devore escape from Mother Mayhem. She never encountered Katie Hannon until First Ward though.

Lora Doubet - Scrapper - Martial Arts / Invulnerability
Movement Power: Superleap
Notes: My very first character in COH ever. I pretty much retired her about the same time that Cyberman 8 was getting my attention, partly because invulnerability for scrapper was so gimped at the time, and I was having more fun with Super reflexes, and partly because of the next character below... 

Lora'lai - Kheldian Peacebringer - Luminous Blast / Luminous Aura
(Tri-form Peacebringer - Fully embracing the "shift to what's needed at the moment" versatility)
Movement: Kheldian Flight/Nova Flight/Dwarf Teleport
Notes: Lora'Lai was my first Kheldian, and I conceived her as the merging of Lora, above, with a Peacebringer. Some of my RP hooks I "borrowed" liberally from Jadzia Dax from DS9 in terms of young/old personality/experiences.

Others:
Startracker Zero - Energy/Energy/Munitions Mastery
Kamen Rider Blade - Willpower/Dual Blades

The above two were vague homages to Samus Aran and the Kamen Rider series. But only in a general way. There is actually a "Kamen Rider Blade" character and show, but mine wasn't designed to directly reference that character or any other Kamen Rider character. Instead KR Blade was a general riff on the whole genre in terms of his costumes.

Neither Zero or KR Blade were meant as RP characters. They were utility characters mainly useful for helping other people accomplish stuff.

Then there some characters I made specifically as jokes.

There was "Burning Sensation" the Fire/Fire scrapper who looked like a Power Puff girl in her teens and whose singing idol career was derailed by a trip to Paragon when she got in a series of events that gave her her powers. Her manager pulled an almost "Ascendant's Uncle Saul" level of goof in helping her choose her superhero name. Neither of them were native speakers of the English language, and "Burning Sensation" sounded cool to them (she's from Japan.)  Slight cultural oversight there. And the spawn of an INCREDIBLE amount of puns and entendre from my Supergroup whenever I played her - to the point that she died more often because I WAS LAUGHING TOO HARD TO SEE!

Quote[Team] Burning Sensation.: ((STAMINA! FULLY SLOTTED!!! YES!!!)
[Team] CAPTAIN ALTITIS: [Burning Sensation. IT keeps going and going and going...]
[Team] Gamma Emission: [the burning sensation will last forever]
[Team] Burning Sensation.: ((Damn your eyes, I'm getting high on the oxygen debt...))

I also made "The Stig" from Top Gear. Who made many appearances at DJ Valor's show from The Cape Radio.

And there was "Dr. Stephan Fayte" - who really was "just a gifted surgeon, and nothing more!" 

(And I couldn't BELIEVE that name was actually available on Virtue server and that I thought of snagging it first! I had fun occasionally wandering into the "D" on that character and going around thanking all of the superheroes who had rescued "Me" in that radio mission in Peregrine Island. :D)

Those are just the ones that pop to the forefront of my head at this hour after an emotional night and not enough sleep. Overall across the servers I had FIFTY (50) distinct and unique characters (not counting a few duplicates of Cyberman 8 and a couple of others like Lora'Lai rolled on different servers back before server transfers were available). Many of them were little more than a unique costume looking for a character hook before I could really play them. Some of them were created and then never played past level 5 or so.

@Som3one here, from Union.

Used to play a lot on trials so if you have done trials on Union you have probably seen me.

Q'uanix - Peacebringer
Som3one - Rad/Nrg/Fire Blaster
Mr. Mordus Demon/Therm Mastermind
Hydrofreeze - Water/Ice/Ice Blaster
Dominix Mk. II - Bots/Forcefield Mastermind
Dominix Mk. III - Beam/Rad Corruptor
Test subject 004 - Huntsman SoA
Mal'ak - Kin melee/Ninjitsu Stalker

@Shadowe and @Shadowe2 (which was formerly both @Luminescence and @Corpos) from Union server, owner of Shadowe, and far to many bit-part roleplaying toons that I never had the heart to get rid of (I'm looking at you, Clarissa Stone, Andrew Martin, Helena H Mk. 1, 2, 2.1 and 4, Richard Huntington, Andrea Huntington, Samantha Huntington, Sam Huntington, Sammy Huntington, Julie Slater, Kara Sloane and... this could go on a while, and yes, I did have three characters who were not only the same person but had the same powersets).

Lurking as usual, but I come here every day.

Paragon City Forever.

You can find me on twitter using my "other" Internet handle - @Chemlak

@ohmsEU and @ohms 2, mainly Union with some Defiant thrown in for good measure :)

Blastor here, proud member of Union since day 1 of the European launch.

The game manual said find an easy name for your toon so people can easily remember. Well, my first toon was a blaster and I was so anxious to play :)...

The Spectacular Sparky from Virtue signing in. Too many alts to list but Sparky was my first and most played character.

@Lady Luck was my global.
Victory was my main server altho I started on Justice and played a smattering of other servers.

My level 50s

Guardian Server
Elementalinator - elec/mental manip blaster

Justice Server
E'Lan - elec/fire blaster

Liberty Server
Mercury Midnite - kin/dark defender
Pure Damage - fire/fire blaster

Victory Server (bolded toons are my most recent 50s and I may have played with you)
Amethyst Shade - Kheldian warshade
Crystal Glow - ice/rad controller
Demon Dominatrix - demon/pain dom mastermind
Flight of Fantasy - illusion/empathy controller
Flora H2O - water blast/nature affinity corrupter
Full-Quiver - archery/ice blaster
Hothouse Flower - plant/thermal controller
Kitty Fantastico - claws/super reflexes scrapper
Lady Danu - earth/kinetics controller
LitterBug - gravity/storm controller
Lucky Bullets - dual pistols/devices blaster
Melody Force - sonics/energy blaster
Mercury Midnight - kin/dark defender
Ondee Bubble - force field/rad defender
Pay-Back - willpower/fire tank
Pure Damage - fire/fire blaster
Quicksilver Flame - fire/kin corrupter
Re'lan - elec/fire blaster
Slicey Dicey - dual blades/willpower scrapper
Sweet Time - beam rifle/time manip corrupter
Willow DeWisp - empathy/rad defender

@minotaur here (and a few on @mino2), characters on every server, 250+ of them, nearly 90 50s. Best known as:

Mr Minotaur on Freedom, my first 50 something like 3rd Jan 05 - Stone/axe tank
Black Hole Sun on Protector, my first 40 villain when it stopped there, never did hit 50 - dark/thermal corruptor
Your ex from hell on Pinnacle, energy/invul brute
Spinifex devil and Ronin-ko on Virtue, spines/dark and Katana/SR scrappers
No brain no pain on Justice, fire/psi dominator, my first purpled out permadom
Death crackle on Justice, a marketeering project, zero to a pimped out 50 with a base and 3BN in the bank in 6 weeks - Elec/nrg stalker
Yeti's bride on Victory, ice/MM blaster
T0wer of p0wer on Victory, elec/shield scrapper, the only toon I got hybrid unlocked on and I T4 hybrided 3 hours before shutdown
Baron von Tollbooth on Victory, DA/stone tank, yes dark armor can tank
Tweenage rampage on Justice then transferred to defiant for the EU player meet DP/elec blaster and sort of Hit-Girl knockoff

And my final favourite toon only created 5 days ago, finished at 50+2 and played like crazy for the final week, a martial arts/shield scrapper called Kinda Lingers. Now the name may raise a smile, but it has more significance than the obvious to Brits of a certain age. A much loved satirical TV show in the UK (Not the 9 o'clock news which had its origins in an early 1980s journalist strike so there was no BBC news, it launched the career of Rowan Atkinson amongst others) finished its final episode with a song called (the memory) kinda lingers which can be found on Youtube, and it seemed somehow appropriate to make the toon.

I was a proud leader (with @ace who posts here as AceSteveC) of Eurocore, a network of SGs of European based players on Victory. We had something like 6 full SG/VGs at one stage, and 24 people logged on in Eurocore's global chat channel as the servers went down, several of whom had played all night to the 8am our time shutdown.   

I was @Kistulot - and if you recognize that name you probably know my only real character, Sarah "Argent Girl" LaSilvas. I started on virtue, and I mapserved on virtue the last time. But...

Argent Girl       - Elec/elec Brute
Argent-Girl       - Elec/elec Blaster
Argent-Aegis    - Elec/shield Scrapper (it was an electric shield!)
Argentia           - Humanform Peacebringer
Domina Argenti - Elec/Elec Dominator (Praetorian version! Long story . . . )

I had planned to have Silver-Girl (I always wanted Silver Girl, but it'd been taken since i12 when I first started forever ago - curse you @Pixy! Unless you're really nice. Then sorry.) as an Elec/FF Controller, but that fell through because I am TERRIBLE at using control powers properly. Always have been. Always will be.

Cosmic Herald from the Justice server.

Quote from: KnightHawk Prime on December 01, 2012, 08:49:30 AM
KnightHawk Prime here, I was the Commanding Officer of the KnightHawks SuperGroups, my global was boring and obvious, @knighthawk prime. ;]

Have you met my lovely wife?

2cp. ;]

Funny bumping into you again. ;D

<---- Night-Hawk07 on the forums, mostly played Knight'Hawk on Freedom but also had a few alts as well.

I started on Victory and Guardian, but then migrated to Infinity. I too am a lifelong altiholic who started playing CoX right after Issue-3 went live.

Stormistress on the boards, and @Bjorn Stoutarm in global.

I made it my mission to fill up as many slots as possible with new character creations, and that limited my path to 50 for many many of my characters. However, it was all about the FUN and the journey for me, and about all the wonderful people I met all along the way.


Notable characters are:

Tess Tamoni on Virtue (Shield/Elec. Tank)

Starr Quake on Virtue (Gravity/Elec. Dominator)

Dragons Spawn on Protector (Fire/Fire Blaster)

Stormistress on Infinity (Storm/Elec. Defender)

'Mirage on Infinity (Illusion/Storm Controller)

I was honored to have 'Mirage bestowed the leadership of The Natural Disasters, Inc. on Infinity several years ago. I remember fondly being recruited by Weather King, and all the good times that all of the NDI members had. It was great having the light RP going on with our many events (one of my favorites was the Talos beach party. Circle-head volleyball anyone? Awesome!, and let's not forget the in-game wedding of the NDI's own Bethany to Gabriel in Founders Falls.). The constant quest for the perfect SG uniform, with all those fashion shows. You guys were just wonderful.

There are so many experiences it could fill several books. The sudden random Inspiration or Enhancement dropped on you by an unknown benefactor. Being caught in a street ambush, and then having someone come along to keep you healed during the fight (or flight). Cruising the Rikti Crash Site with 'Mirage (yeah!, all those screen shots), or the Shadowshard.

It was inspiring to have all the good community help and contact. It made you want to contribute, and I often would just slowly fly overhead looking for heros to heal.


I will be visiting here often, and I look forward to spending time with all of you.

Wingnaut here. Global @Wingnaut. Started on Triumph 6 1/2 yrs ago, but managed somehow to find homes on just about every server. Pushed out the door by force when all went dark last night on Champion doing what I loved most, teaming with friends while fighting Arachnos....seemed fitting.

While I loved all my alts...the ones that stand out for me are Wingnaut, Pandimus, Stingshot, Mindblankk, Guardian Teslin...omg,the list goes on.

Hiya, Paragonners.

For those of you just coming on board, welcome. Tissues are on the left, the well stocked bar is on the right. There are plenty of comfy chairs spread about the place and we'll be having snacks brought in later.

@JWBullfrog here.

For those of you who played on Protector you might know me as the man behind Cassadega Delgado, Valentina Rose, Caridad Esperanza, Northern Spirit, Alexis Alexander, and many, many more.
If you came from Guardian you might have teamed with Doc Vendetta or Whispering Swan or Quiet Vindication and if so, you've met me there.
Triumph players might have seen me as Gray Goddess, Project Terminated, Janey Chain.

Again, welcome everyone. As you get comfortable you'll find that we're the same bunch of people you knew, we just have a new clubhouse.

I was @Li Sensei in game, Canine on the boards, what relatively little I did post.  I was a Union player and only ever a Union player, except for a trip to Freedom for the 'let's crush the server' Praetorian invasion and a toon for the city hall steps vigil.

Li Sensei was my namesake and original toon (Katana/Regen scrapper) since the day before EU official launch (the servers came up the evening before the official launch day :) )

Tufa was my second favourite, and the toon most people probably saw me on if I was on a trial.  Stone/Fire scranker, Granite mode purely as a panic button, and almost an obscene amount of fun how hard to kill he ended up being.  Tufa also generated me Karmic payback for all of my toons' pain fighting Carnival of Shadows, because he was immune to Carnies and so spent enjoyable hours giving Vanessa DeVore a headache by ambling into the Psychic plane and burning clowns (yes, I was stupid enough to have a Carnie farm).

I loved all 25 of my alts (all on Union), and they all got to 50+3.  Was still working (slowly) on Hybrid for them all, but it would have come eventually even given my pathological aversion of farming for anything.

Let's see.  list of my alts in order of creation:
Li Sensei, Aiag, Heat Haze, Toybox, Raffles, Bight, Fitzroy, Darquenesse, Thermal Interface, Tufa, Rifleman Gurung, Boreal Howl, Aerial Deceiver, Noctes, Operative Harris, Springheeled Jacques, 'Kin Freezing,  Doohicky, Chan Yang, Albedo Null, Hallow Point, Nine Tenths, AMP Alpha, Beam Line.

Hey everyone, Abyssus from CoH forums and Pinn/virture server.

@Turjan, mostly from Union - originally @Sword of Albion - long story there...actually no, it's not that long, so I may as well tell it here now - why not? ;)

I started playing CoH at the first Christmas, but not on my own copy of the game. I'm English, and that first CoH Christmas, an American friend had come to stay over the holidays, bringing both CoH and World of Warcraft with him to show me.

I was instantly smitten with CoH. When my friend went back to the States after the holidays, I still had his CoH installed on my PC, and he kindly let me continue to mess about with it now and then. So I made Sword of Albion, a broadsword/regen scrapper.

Some time after this, Global names were introduced - it was a time when my friend wasn't using his account, so when I logged in as Sword of Albion, that became his global. He liked it, and so it stayed :)

Eventually, CoH was released in Europe, I got my own copy, and the first thing I did was remake Sword of Albion, which of course became my (European) Global. Finally, when the servers merged, my friend retained the Sword of Albion Global, and I renamed mine to Turjan...which, as it is the name I use for everything online anyway, actually made things more logical in the end ;D

So, yeah - @Turjan of Union, primary toons (i.e. my Incarnates): Sword of Albion (broadsword/regen scrapper), Lady Enceleda (empathy/rad defender), Dr.Turjan's TEA Mk.I (rad/elec defender), Gordon's Guardian (willpower/battle axe tank), and Street Shade (street justice/willpower scrapper)

Multiple Girl II - been on here for a while, always lurking ;)

@Thunderr here.

Most of you knew me as either Atomic Guardsman, American Vanguard, or Atomic Juggernaut on Virtue.

Look ... this hit me hard as well but I want to say thanks to Titan for giving us a way to stay together.

I have some characters on other MMO's but COX was MY game, the game I ALWAYS turned to to relieve stress, meet friends, or just create something new.

For anyone who knew me and wants to keep in touch, I have an e-mail address and FB account I will post in a contacts thread if one is ever created.

For those of us on Virtue last night, we got royally screwed by the server crashing. I had luckily made a backup on Exalted and was able to watch as servers died 3 minutes late ... prompting some of us to wonder if it was a cruel ruse.

Am I emotional, hell yes. Am I mad at NCSoft, hell yes. Even thought about leaving MMO all together. I do hope to keep in contact with some of my old friends. If you see this post and you are in another MMO, shoot me a message. Maybe we can meet.

Bionic Flea, mainly from Justice, checking in.

Yesterday was bittersweet.  I haven't played much in the last month or so due to a combination of depression over the announcement and real life.  But I have logged in the last few days to savor the last moments and say goodbye.

I was buoyed by seeing my global friends list lit up more than I ever remember seeing it and by getting to run a +4 ITF and LGTF and some Itrials.

My eyes welled up a few times this morning reading Facebook posts and looking at screenshots and videos.

But the biggest punch to the gut was trying to look at the COH forums one last time and seeing that it was already gone.

My sincere thanks go out to Tony and the Titan Network team for keeping our community alive.

@Artillerie here but with loads of alts - Mostly stuck to Union, especially in the last handfull of years but used to dabble a bit in Defiant. Great times :)

Doc Gemini here, used to be I could be found on any server keeping the city safe while most of you slept.

I've been registered here since they opened the Ouroboros Portal site, so I suppose it's about time I posted something...

I was AkuTenshiiZero on the boards, @Rose Prince in game.  I wasn't very well known, but you might have seen me on Virtue mostly as my Corruptor Capt. Stormrider.  If you ever were involved with the small SG Young Freedom I was Zeta Silver, though I had retired that character long ago.  And of course I had 20+ alts fairly evenly spread across both factions, but only on Virtue.

@Rageycat   Virtue mostly.

If there was someone misspelling words and placing letters in the wrong places on your team, that was probably me Virtuous ones.

I have way too many characters to list so here is a pair and their alternates

Caraecyn               lvl 50 dom garv/psi (shapeshifter, semi entity- makes duplicates of self over the multiverse)
Beurocrat/Secretary in scirocco's faction
Mouthy in the Abyss on red hami's
I liked to lead an in character LGTF now and again.

aliases: Caraesyn lvl 50 widow/fort (and yes female costume)
Caroran lvl 50 grav/kin controller (unknowing duplicate)
Karaecyn lvl 50 peacebringer (duplicate rebelling from Cara with the collective(council of duplicates) )
Daemocaer lvl 50 mastermind demon/storm
(from an old rp on a mud where Cara was infused witha  demon, releaseing his darker nature, out to mess with duplicates and Cara)
Daemokaer lvl 50 stj/energy aura (second alt for daemocaer, now shackled by Caraecyn and off doing.. bleh heroic deeds)
I also had planned but scrapped a warshade version, though he was mentioned in rp.

Jonas Sahandra     lvl 50 scrap dm/sr (vampire catman)
one of my two original charcters around before badges were even out, he went through crazy bloopers back then like not having practiced brawler until lvl 22
I got to meet the Kil Skuls guy, teamed with him.
He became soemthing entirely different and fun to play on the game.
I even had spectators in dead teamates who couldn't rez from council spawns once.
They said it as like watching jackie chan =)
aliases: Jaiger lvl 50 scrapper db/will (when I first made Jonas., I wanted dual blades but all they had was broadsword )
Sanoj lvl 50 brute db/will (I made 2 at the time sicne there wa sno side switching, this ebcame my priamry farmer and did my 'Bughunts' in AE. They were small winged insect customs that grouped nicely for db and at +4x8 were a challenge to even io'd farmers. I also ised them to test the strength of my builds.)
J0NAS lvl 50 tanker DA/Staff - I did not get to play him enough =(
My DA/elec brute build was clunky and slow. This was godly and enjoyable to an extreme, last night I LGTf's with pyroembryo and loved every moment of this character. also had spring attack for set bonuses, but it became part of my defensive spin, stomp and whirl aoe of combo attack.

I started with the launch of  COV with @maelestrous on the Defiant server, Red side.  As the COV patch dwindled, I moved to Freedom, blue side, for the population.  I had one lvl 50 (artimiste- archery/tech blaster).  I closed my account just before NC-soft bought paragon.

With the release of GR, I returned to COH with @cosmic comix.  My still existing supergroup name from my previous account.  I forgot all my old account info and had lost the original game and key.  Luckily, I still had a few friends left from the old days to help reclaim my old super group.  With this account, thanks mostly to the MF's, I had a ton of 50's, and a bad case of altitis.  My main server was Virtue, but Freedom was a close 2nd.

Thank you Paragon, GM's, dev's, and players alike for a most enjoyable and *musing* experience.  The stories I've imagined for my characters, and other players stories, will live on in my memory.

Hawt Earth here.

megabros on the forums

I was on freedom a lot, but I did have a few heroes on Infinity and Virtue.

Junkyard Wolf checking in  ;)

Not much for forums, but seeing how I have no choice now, if I want to stay a part of the community, here I am.

@Strype here, Mostly played on Virtue  5339 hours on main toon at zero hour (or so civilian NPCS said).

I was @Dynamite Monkey. I played mostly on Triumph, and started just before Issue 1 came out. My main was Flamesprite, a Fire/Fire blaster, and she was the very first character I ever created.

So depressed and angry right now. It's finally sinking in that I'll likely never get to play this game again.

It was really good seeing you on Justice United yesterday, Flea.  I'm really glad you came back.  It had gotten so empty and discouraging, sometimes taking an hour to recruit for the Hami Raid, and niggling in the back of my mind was always, where are these good people?  Yes, going next to the Official forums where we could have written about this after "sunset' and seeing it all gone was horrible!  I truly loathe them for that!  Bad enough killing City of Heroes before our eyes but then to take away the venue where we might share final thoughts, memories, condolences, was heartlessly cruel.  Either they're really desperate for computing space, but my take on it is they'd prefer we each become Titans as well as written off customers.  (The ultimate icing is I can't even log into my NCSoft Master Account. Sheesh!  Looks like they've disabled or deleted those records.  They don't need to tell me again how much they do NOT want my business.)  I'm glad you got to do ITF and other fun stuff.

Modifying to note when speaking with an attorney today (she's a friend) she explained that if the purpose of closing CoH was to end all related contracts then the forums would also have to come down and that it would be cleaner legally to do it all at the same time.  So I'm done being POed at NCSoft for that.

Hotaru from the forums, @Hotaru in game. Hotaru, Cannibal Clown, Micro Jackson, and Sister Incinerator among others on Victory.

Here's to the greatest online community I've ever known!

Glad you included this list.  While @Hotaru rang a bell, Cannibal Clown brought back the memories.  Sorry I missed seeing your other characters, but glad to see you here.

@Uun

Played from December 2004 through December 2009 mainly on Protector and Victory and was co-leader of Phantoms of War (later merged with Paragon Punishers). Was fairly active on the CoH forums as hudsonsmith during that period (I eventually changed it to _Uun_) and wrote a couple of guides. Started playing again as a free player in September 2011 when Freedom launched but played only on Protector and was absent from the forums due to the limited posting rights given to free players.

Protector:  Uun, Night Window, Susanowo, Spiney Norman, Mr. Green, Mahu-ike, AudiBabel, Virginia Creeper, Gosh Darnit Man, Ulan Bator, Joules Faraday, Zodiac Prime, Miss Hap, Cielo Oscuro, Carbon Arc, Culverin, Gamma Decay

Victory:  aix, Short Charlie, Argent Destiny, Ice Coffee, Niobium Flux, Sonara

This is Arcana.  Arcanaville on the official forums, but of course NCsoft took away the 'Ville.

I'm not sure how active I will be here yet, but I will be around.

Glass Goblin on the forums and as my global, but in the last days I primarily played Gorilla Girl and Black Ibis on Exalted, and Mister Dramatico and Glass Goblin on Triumph.

Golden Girl - @Godlen Girl and @Golden-Girl - all servers :P

@BobMc in game (or was it @Bob Mc ?)

B0bcatmc on the forums - active on Guardian in the old days, and the last couple years with the Iron Eagles II SG on Justice

altoholic

"Amyra" -Empathy/psi/psi Defender 50 incarnate - Main character - Guardian

"Nine Lives 9" SR/Staff Tank 50 (she made it with a couple days to spare! - Justice

Freedom is the Home of me and my wife's "Holiday Heroes SG"- full of themed duos- "Gingerbread Man" and "Gingerbread Woman" would be coming out for the Winter Holidays right about now...

Union had our "Fae Folk SG", and Infinity was the" Perfect Partners SG" themed duos

@El Corvo

Many of you may know me as "I L L Y R I A" from Virtue, because that's who I've spent most of my time as in the last month. You may also know me as "Pete P. Powers" on Virtue/Infinity, "Vamp Angel" or "Vampire Spike" on Victory, "General Supernova", "Avatar of Ra", or "Illyria the First" on Champion, or "Avatar of RA"/"Ra's Avatar" on Pinnacle/Virtue.

If you know me and want to keep in touch, just PM me! :)

Silver Spartan and Engine Jean on Union. Plus also Ghostslinger and Booster Angel on Beta.

@retched. (note the dot)

I played quite a few toons on City of Heroes over the last four years. Especially Mina Ichikawa, retched., Metamistress Gem and several others.

Hopefully someone here who remembers this GN can get at me as well.

I'm also looking for friends too. Specifically @Whisper X (Amena), @Tuscon440 (Xnobia), and @slyveer (gliss). Please. if someone happens to know either of these four names I mentioned, please PM me. Thanks.

Quote from: Canine on December 01, 2012, 03:31:08 PMI was a Union player and only ever a Union player, except for a trip to Freedom for the 'let's crush the server' Praetorian invasion and a toon for the city hall steps vigil.

Don't forget Beam Line's day trip to Defiant for The Really Hard Way run ;)

I cant just disconnect from the community. I had to come. I'm glad to see you, and other familiar names here.

@OVCorax here.
I played on Union and Defiant.

blackjak here and formerly on COH forum. Mostly played on Virtue where my first and only 50 lived. Only got to play a little over a year. My biggest regret is not meeting everyone earlier. :'(

Virtue:
Moonsun (Japanese member of Evolution-X)
Dynamo Jr. (time lost member of American Legion)
Pink.Eye (former Outcast girl turned hero)
Crimson Fury (Russian nuclear powered firebrand)
Double Sixxes (Brit singer/songwriter/superhero)
Sabre Kat (women's self defense instructor taking it to the streets)
Quantum Stranger (scientist/fugitive, happily his own guinea pig)
The Mystic Kirin (learning magic in unmagical times) [last toon made]
Bloodhunter (villain mercenary, member of the VSTF)
Scorpio-X (mute mystery man)

Champion:
Blackjak (British millionaire/adventurer) [first toon]
Redwing Blackbird (vigilante stalker in the night)

Justice:
Shield Marshal (it wasn't his costume, but it fit)

Triumph:
Gosuto (possessing the demon possessed sword that possesses, walker in shadows)

Guardian:
White Talon (friend and mentor to Ballista [daughter's toon])

Union:
Stellar Girl ( from the future with a message too late)

@Fulcrum

I played on Virtue and Infinity under the names  Deeds, (as well as Randal Deeds, Commander Deeds, Agent Deeds, Operative Deeds, and Capt. Deeds), Decatanium, Dr. Fraust, Dr. Phoenyx, Demigod Shard, Demigod Riven........ and Operatives Orange, Silver, Prism, and Titanium from 'The Operatives' Super-group....  before the Super-group mechanics were even in place.



I saw the game launch.  I saw it end.   

Felt like someone not only kicked my dog, but that I lost a good friend too last night.

@SacredLokapala here.
Started 8 years ago on Guardian, spent the final months on Virtue as Lord Yaweh, Benjamin Steel (Hi FANSY  ;)), and Chou En Lai. Got all my fingers crossed hoping that the Mouse can help us out.

I was @pyber, perhaps better known to some (mainly on Guardian) as Hammy or Hamster, thanks to one of my mains, Little Red Hamster.  Been lurking around the forums here for a little bit now, but this is my first post.  So hello folks, and holler if you need me.  I'll probably be lurking around here somewhere, heh.

Chase Arcanum here.  @chasearcanum.  My wife (@Sibylla aka Cinder Flame) is here too, lurking.

Main server was Liberty, but we had alts virtually everywhere. 

To me, there was no apocalyptic event, no "end" for my characters.  The story's just moved to a different format.  Chase and Cinder,  Shandora Ward and Devouring Flame,  Targe and Ka'rayi, Char Cool and Sibylla... they all still defend the streets of Paragon as they always have.

I've been tempted to re-imagine these characters in my own world- one not tied to NCSoft properties anymore, but all these characters were interwoven into the lore of CoH.  Change the lore and eventually these characters stop being who they are anyway.   They are part of that world.

Maybe someday I'll find inspiration for reinventing them, but for now, they continue the good fight there.

I signed up in September to see what all the fuss was about. My principal avatar was Miss Sakura on Triumph, though I also played some on Infinity.

There are screenshots from last night here (http://shuffly.net/wp/2012/12/01/time-to-hang-up-your-tights/) if anyone is interested.

Lord Omi here, the eccentric billionaire of Virtue.

@Rien

Hyperstrike here (please don't leave!).

@Hyperstrike1
or
@Hyperstrike's Butler

Home was Protector.  But I had toons on every server.  Was a part of Tanker Tuesday, and ran an open Fire/Rad group on Freedom for about 3 years.

I came in during Issue 12.  As far as I'm concerned it was a PERFECT entry point for CoH.  ED and GDN were long over, the invention system was well established, and 90% of the existing zones were already in place.  It only ever really got better for me (regardless of any bitching I did over trivialities).

@Lava-Lad and all my alts (Pinnacle, Justice, Virtue and Freedom) all took something from the name (Nova-Lad, Lava-Nictus, Leopard-Lad, Lava-Lass, Amaz-O...I like the hyphen, sue me).  I had been playing since late 2004 with some long gaps in there and as Pinnacle dried up, I was playing more and more on Justice.  I was glad to have gotten to team with so many people over time and see how ad hoc groups form/storm/perform even over brief periods of cohesion.  Thank you all for giving of yourselves.  Special thanks to Todd the Fire Kin and all the great folks at Paragon's Immortals for taking me in, and most especially for finishing out my WS's old i3 Dreck farm last night.  It was the last mish I ran.

Happy hunting to you all and feel free to look me up for team if you see my global in other games.

I'm around, and while I'm not likely to post often, I don't think I care to let go of the community, however much on the periphery I have kept myself.

I first played in June 2004 (on a friend's account), and bought the game myself in August of that year. First character was Keihran, a BS/Regen Scrapper. Ten levels in, melee was ruined for me by trying to run missions in Skyway, dodging Rularuu invasion forces along the way.

@Valaton, mains are Valaton on Protector, and Myrielle on Infinity & Protector. Elec/Dev Blaster and Bots/Traps Mastermind, respectively. Also my only two 50's.

Heya all!  I was Rocket Bob on the forums and in game (another one of those Auto-name login changes that I grew to really like). Sad longtimer ;(

Played mostly on Virtue and Infinity.  And on Beta.   Hel/Lady Hel/Lady Hela, Eskimojo, Vambrace/Templar/Spirit Twin,  Elementar, Trollll (spelled properly) Hero, Insidious,  Amazing Nimbus, Fortunada, etc. 

Shout out to any Paragons, Amazing Family, Aurorae, or Debtinators who might be on here.

@Epelesker, mainboards handle QuarriosSoul. Virtue server (mostly), started on Triumph and have had brief tenures on Freedom, Exalted and Union.

My main character and first 50 was the Malleable Mechanic. I had over 20 characters on Virtue at the shutdown. I have a Virtueverse page but it's in a horrible out-of-date state.

And I will be on Champions Online.

@Dr.Gamma here. I was mostly a lurker in the forums though, aside from one post about playing CoH with gestures and a few build opinions here and there when I found myself with too much free time and away from my CoH computer... Everybody I played (and in which server) is listed here: http://www.drgamma.co.nf/ (although some pictures are not showing in Chrome, apparently).

Global: @Stratoshock

Level 50 Characters, all on Virtue:

Stratoshock (my very first): pure electric blaster, started on Protector, migrated to Virtue; I went out the way I went in - with Stratoshock in Atlas Park
Stratoburst: Peacebringer, my favorite; MoLGTF
Stratoshade: Warshade, Praetorian version of Stratoburst (RP only of course), my only Vigilante; claim to fame:  tanked Lord Recluse successfully in crabform (couldn't buy a tanker or brute that night)
Brilliant Twilight: radiation/dark defender, arguably my most powerful character (L4 incarnate around the horn); MoMLTF, MoATF, MoBAF
Golden Eve: invulnerability/kinetic tanker; wussy offense, could take an INCREDIBLE pounding
Azure Sting: Arachnos Widow (went Hero ASAP); my second favorite character

When Plan Z/Phoenix gets up and running, these characters will be reborn - or should I say, 'dimensionally shifted'....

Great idea. 

I was electric_emu on the forums and @AP in-game.  Also if you ever met a character with "Allen" in the name, that was probably me.

Arachnion from Exalted, though I first started out on Freedom.

My global was @Morgan at the time of the shutdown.

I used the same name I have here on the official forums.

Electric-Knight, your friendly neighborhood uh... electric... knight?  :P

@Zethustra - pretty much only on Virtue

And I just finally changed my bookmark toolbar and put this forum in the old one's place.

I'm looking forward to keeping in touch and... hopefully, finding ourselves back in the game some day and, hopefully, continuing on to something even greater some day... but I'll take what I can get for the moment.  ;D

*waves to Electric-Knight*

Ghost Vision from Virtue here.

I was ThugOne on the CoH boards.
My CoH global was @dpawtows

I'm Aggelakis almost everywhere I go. (If you see an Aggelakis in a game, SAY HELLO!!! You have a 99% chance it's me and I will ALWAYS make time for a City refugee!)

I didn't post on the official forums often and I only extensively played CoH the first couple of years before returning off and on after Going Rogue went live.

As for my characters, they were all on Virtue.  I only played three extensively:

@SpectralHunter
Silverblade - kat/regen scrapper
HAWC - energy/energy blaster
Raveness - ill/rad  controller

I was Coulomb2 on the CoH forums.  I figure it's much more likely you'd know me from there (in the unlikely event you recognize me at all) than anything actually in game (I'm a staunch soloer, so the chance you interacted with me in game is virtually nil).

I *think* if you recognize me at all, it would most likely be as the guy who did threads about taking a character (Pro Payne) from 1 to 50 using nothing but mission architect - people would request I try out their arc, I would, and then post a review of it on the forum.

The only other thing I can think of was compiling the information trying to figure out the most likely drop rates for incarnate components in the solo content (i.e. DA and later).  Incidentally, heh, I still have that information: by sunset I had information on 1,075 drops, with a rate of 76.4% common, 18.0% uncommon, 4.4% rare, and 1.2% very rare.

@wei yau here.

Played mostly on Virtue as a proud member of the Dauntless Reverie.  I was also honored to have served, however briefly, with the Iron Eagles on Justice.

Didn't have much of a presence in the forums, except for posting many of my characters and their costumes in the "Show Your Best Costume" thread.

That was a great thread, the creativity and support in this community was a wonder to behold.

Name's the same.

My characters (http://www.virtueverse.net/wiki/User:Megajoule) (link goes to Virtueverse):
Miss Megajoule, V-Max, Sky Raider X, the Watchmaker, Taxibot Gamma, VERB, the Spirit of the Row, the Star of Justice, Star Champion, Officer Martinez, Papa Lobo, Shockwave Ryder, Rajaan

the Abomination, Dr. Forsythe, Max Thunder, Foxtrot Maiko, Operative Kowalski

Tahquitz, same global (@Tahquitz) from Triumph.

After making a Facebook account to join Triumph United, I was asked by Facebook to provide proof of my identity.  Being that it's a fake name, they deleted the account 14 days later (and for employment reasons, I can't use Facebook publicly.)  So if you don't see me on there, that's why.  Apologies.

So I guess I shall reside here on Titan as long as they can/have interest in giving us refugees a home.

Present.

I was Peregrine Falcon on the CoH forums.

Not sure right now how often I'll be here, but I'll keep checking in at least.

Sad.

Adrenalin on the Alpha boards and forums, @Adrenalin global, played on Freedom for the most part.

My main heroes were Adrenalin, EbonWing, Gamma-Frost, Stormfinch, Ally Kazam and Mercury Maid. Villains were Merry Mayhem and Adverse. I had other characters scattered across other servers, including Cherry Bomb, Postal Polly and Lady Corsair.

Lord Omi, I remember you!!!! Cheers :)

@MishiTakii....  = Khodek, Bonavox, Synodontis, Blind Envy, Soloxine, Jaklova, Toxocara, Taenia....

Wish I could have had time to bring them all to 50 and above.  Wish I had had more time to spend with all of you.

Great to see a lot of forumites and players I know of coming in. I feel a little better tonight because of it. :)

@G1ass here.  I was never active on the boards though I did lurk frequently on the General Board.

If there was a controller to be found though, it may have been me as I had them on every (English speaking) server.

OH my gosh, there are SO many names I recognize from the CoX forums!  /em happydance

Healix here

(aka Angelikah, Pengie, Karmic Ashe and so many more. I Formed the sg, Wings Over Paragon, in 2005.)
All of my characters were on Triumph.

I was known best as Moolana the Medicow..

On Justice  I was Harlequin Gold as my main

Champion and Guardian knew me best as Moolana although I had a Moo on every server.. Many is the nights on Champion server did I sit in the Hollows doing SAR for the lower toons.  My Purple cow flying through the air to rescue people, rezzing them healing them then teleporting them to their missions. Those were the days.

Guardian I was Moo, Calliope Wren, Wait. What the ((And YES I got away with that name.. ))

Virtue I was Mother - Hello Paladin.. You never got back to me with pics of Us! Also Vincent St. Valerie, Nexus Libra, Amythyst Flame, Thorny Flames ((Miskatonic U. VG )) I inhereted and kept running Powers That Be since 2005. Also I was Mishal Van Ruin and Bunny Thulu.. I also had a Bunny Thulu on Ever Server, Either a Peacebringer or a Warshade XD.

I had a ton of chars on Every single server.. But Virtue ended up being my home at the last. I returned there and stayed.. But Guardian was right up there.

@Rangle M. Down

Mostly Justice Server, but was involved in the Tanker Tuesdays event since it hit Justice.
Don't plan on being active here. Will occasionally visit to say "hi".

Hello all!

@Power Play here...Power_Play on the coh.com boards, same as here.

Was on Virtue with Liberty Eagle (my main) and Vergeltungswaffe (my nasty Nazi villain).  Other characters were Longbow Rifleman, Taxibot 59, and a bunch of other alts.

A special shoutout to Kistulot and Epelesker, two of my comrades from the Golden Age Heroes SGs ( http://goldenageheroes.guildportal.com/ ), Gods of the Golden Age, Young Gods of the Golden Age, and New Gods of the Golden Age.


Gods Protect!  (Our SGs' slogan)

Starsman here. My Forum  name was Starsman, my Global in game was @Starsman, my main character was Starsman in Triumph... well you get the idea.

I was a member of the HUB and had no super group. I used to play so casually I ended up getting booted out of every super group rather "quickly" for breaking the 15 day inactivity window rules (i hate those rules btw, but understood them given limited size for SGs.)

Some of you may know me for my number crunching on the tanker forums, others may only know me for my anger and frustration against NCSoft during shutdown since I rarely left the tanker forums to talk balance anyways.

I'll be honest: I don't think think I will be too active in these forums. I should have not been as active as I was in the last 3 months but the game shutting down made me push a lot of real life stuff aside. I'll give it a try, though. I tend to always have steam running in at least one computer (may not be looking at it all day, though) so you can find me if you look up Tharsman or Starsman. My public name is Starsman and my icon is a tanker shield.

But I will try to pop up once in a while.

Gothenem here, Gothenem on the CoH Boards, @Armie in the Game

Order Mage, Syn Apsis, Doc Doubletap, Kanochi the Demon, The Gemstone Knight, Red Radeon, the Paintbrush, Armie, Nurse Bee, and many others.

Altaholic galore. Played on Guardian, Virtue, Freedom and Exalted.

Same handle.  @Portland Underground

Repeat Offenders forever!

Glad this site is here.  I am staring at the NC Launcher at it makes me ill.

Hopefully no surprise, @UberGuy and @UberGuyDeux , essentially exclusive to Justice. If you played with me, you probably saw me on one of these, in this order of most hours played:

   
• Nightfall (Dark/Dark Defender)
• Fortune's Shadow (Dark/Psi Defender)
• Sable Slayer (Dark/Regen Scrapper)
• Golden Ember (Stone/Fire Brute)
• Abyssal Frost (Ice/Dark Corruptor)
• American Steele (BS/Invul Scrapper)
• Shadowslip (Dark/Dark Corruptor)
• Final Rest (MA/Regen Stalker)
• Sanguine Strike (DB/Regen Scrapper)
• Archaeidae Noir (Night Widow)
• Tachyonic Daze (Mind/Rad Controller)

I haven't been posting around here much, as I was focusing on playing while I could and still posting on the game forums. Depending on how things shape up around here, I'd like this to be my new home for things City of Heroes related, particularly some technical things.

Ad Astra Here, @AdAstra in-game.

Minorly altoholic, so I won't punish you all with all of my characters.

But since I was mostly Infinity for the past year or so, I will list those:

AdAstra, dark/ice/dark blaster, 50
Maurya, en/elec/elec blaster, 50
Brighid Frost, fire/ice.elec blaster, 50
Agoniste, fire/rad/fire controller, 50
Winter Shock, elec/cold/ice controller, 50
Scorching Wrath, fire/thermal/fire corruptor, 50


(wow, I had more 50s than I thought, these plus Libby Belle, kat/regen/body scrapper &  Isotope 167, rad/dark/dark defender, on Liberty)

Others of note:

Lady Veridian
Tina Beretta
Incarnate Shadow
Unseighle

and the new kids:

Briony Deep (water blaster)
Ebony Shadows (dark dominator)
Morea (NA controller)
Last Hurrah (staff scrapper)

Played the Saturday TFs with Johnny Taxibot, Ms. Cats & Ironblade (successive leaders) and the Tuesday evening TFs led by GATE-Keeper. During the final days, I ran a good bit with the Just a Little Bit global channel.

@Lago from Guardian, Infinity, Exalted (yes, people actually played there) and Virtue

suffering serious CoX withdrawal symptoms, but here.

Well this is going to be pretty easy to figure out :)

Altoholic Monkey on the COH forums
Global: @Alty / @Alty M

One of the founders of Repeat Offenders Network. (http://www.repeat-offenders.net)  {Begin shameless plug: We're still around and many members play other games}
People probably have assumed I was male on the forums but for the record, I am a woman.
Known for naming colors on the costume creator for the color blind.  (Never got to finish those last 3 palettes :( )

In game I played lots of Defenders, Controllers and Masterminds. I also love Kinetics. I have several themed groups of alts.  I have several Monkey named alts like: Drain Da Monkey, Hot Monkey Love, Shock da Monkey, Razorblade Monkey, Iron Monkey Paw and more.
(I really should be writing past these but just can't seem to do that yet)

I was global @Manga in CoH, and CuppaManga on the CoH forums.

For historical perspective, I was CuppaManga because I changed my forum name in honor of CuppaJo leaving.  A very short time after, the forums upgraded (so you couldn't change your forum name anymore) and I got stuck with the name ever since.  :)

If anyone needs me I'm playing mostly Star Wars: The Old Republic, I'm on Steam (PM me if you want to contact me there so I don't get flooded), and I may occasionally be on Star Trek Online or The Secret World.

I'm here.

Feycat, a/k/a @Trillium

Global @srmalloy, pretty much exclusively on Guardian, having moved there, bringing my characters with me, when the group I had been playing with on Pinnacle, most of whom were in the military, got rather forcefully removed from regular play -- deployment aboard ship for a nine-month cruise, shipped out to Iraq/Afghanistan, etc.; I'd been playing mostly solo, then had another player suggest I move to Guardian, inviting me to their SG there, so I shipped over my characters and never looked back, finishing out the game in the middle of a Rikti Mothership Raid in RWZ 1 on Guardian playing Pakfront, the first character I created -- May 8, 2004.

@gameboy1234 here.

(https://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m185/GojiraRed/CapC80.png)


Dat guy.

In game I was @Redcap... and on the forums I was mostly collecting Mod warnings ;D

and for whom it might concern, my PSN name is Snaptooth. So if you see me on WH40K: Space Marine or Transformers: Fall of Cybertron wave, smile...and let me tear you to shreds ;)

Lady Malachite, Lvl 50 Invuln/Rubber Mallet...I mean War Mace Tanker.  Magic origin, hunting CoTs was her "raison de guerre." 

8 year veteran.  My husband was in Beta before the game opened, and I joined after it went live.

Total of 48 toons - one (Afterglow) made on Beta after the main servers went down. 

@Metal_Mountain


Yeah i was pretty quiet.

;D

May as well add myself to this list.   :)

Global name, @Akili  (That was easy!)

On Freedom, redside: Radiant Chaos, Radiation/Thermal Warmth Corruptor, in the Shades of Grey SG.

And then on Champion (and briefly on Virtue, after the shutdown notice was given):
All members of the Heroside Champions of Annor SG, and all 50+3 Incarnates:
Akili, Gravity/Empathy Controller
Jiona Fox, Storm Summoning/Electric Defender
Solar Maelstrom, Peacebringer
Kunga, Dual Blades/Regen Stalker
Isharai, Ice Armor/Street Justice Tank
Jiona, Electric/Energy Blaster

And finally,
Ravenlight, a level 40 Warshade.

That was my contribution to the world!   8)

@Metal Britches, though I use Darkwing Turducken for a lot of things, him being my first level 50.

If you see a character in another game with a subtle City of Heroes reference as a name, there's a decent chance it's me. ("Rikti" on SWTOR, "Paragon Champion" on CO, you get the idea)

Also, any way an admin could post a ballpark population increase since the closure, maybe a rough trend if it has been going for longer?

Guess I need to add in here.

@Profit in game.
Profit on the Official Boards.

Almost Justice exclusively.

Characters you may have seen me on,
Guardian Spirit - INV/SS Tank
Kheldian Detective - Peacebringer
Velocity-9 - DM/SR Scrapper
Burning Fuery - Fire/Fire Tank
Guardian Ghost - Fire/Rad Troller
Doctor Fortune - Ill/EMP Troller (Ironically made for the Old hami raids and right as I hit 45 and could get in the hive, they changed hami lol)
Tachyon - Kin/Elec Defender
Parapet - Will/Mace Tank
Capt. Profit - Broadsword/Regen Pirat... I mean Scrapper
Deinaira - Inv/SS Tank
Menthu - Warshade

Quote from: Kistulot on December 01, 2012, 02:10:28 PM
I was @Kistulot - and if you recognize that name you probably know my only real character, Sarah "Argent Girl" LaSilvas. I started on virtue, and I mapserved on virtue the last time. But...

Argent Girl       - Elec/elec Brute
Argent-Girl       - Elec/elec Blaster
Argent-Aegis    - Elec/shield Scrapper (it was an electric shield!)
Argentia           - Humanform Peacebringer
Domina Argenti - Elec/Elec Dominator (Praetorian version! Long story . . . )

I had planned to have Silver-Girl (I always wanted Silver Girl, but it'd been taken since i12 when I first started forever ago - curse you @Pixy! Unless you're really nice. Then sorry.) as an Elec/FF Controller, but that fell through because I am TERRIBLE at using control powers properly. Always have been. Always will be.

I know you from Formspring!
I was @tarawc
I still use it actually

Right, roll call time!

@Tanklet in game. Virtue was my home, from the moment I was shown the game, till the moment I couldn't get back in @ 2am Friday.
LadyPhoenix on the forums ... Don't ask me why. And I wished SO much that I could have changed it to my global, but, there you go.
Some of you may remember me from HeroCons past.

Characters:

Daria St. Claire
WynterMaiden
Valiant Katana (had many alts that began with VK-)
Twilight Embraced
Molten Terra
Lil' Tyke
Kiara Eternal
Lady Fyre Strke
Sera Delina
Gigawat
Mystic Daydream

I was also on Formspring as @tarawc (still active), @MandyDil (still active), @angelbenton (not active at current).

So many names from Virtue. I wish I knew more of you :( I realize now how many ppl I'd not RPd with. I think that's my biggest regret, more than anything. That, and not attending more of the M&Gs.

*raises her glass* To the city that will never die, as long as we're here to keep its legacy alive.

Is that a glass of Pepsi?  ;D

LMAO! Yeah .... not even close. Unless it's a chaser for something more ... potent :D

My global: @Capt. Calgary

I started off on Protector with Capt. Calgary ice/ice blaster. Then had many alts.
On Justice:
Firebourne fire/fire blaster. Was a member of The Hand Of Judgement SG.
On Guardian:
Rats claws/regen scrapper
On Virtue:
Shadowstream Warshade

Had A LOT more spread out among the servers.

Bought the game at Walmart because the box looked cool one month after the game came out. Was the best purchase I ever made... Until Friday 11/30/2012.  >:(

I was;

On Infinity, Emerald Blade, Hell's Succubus, GYPSY PRINCESS (My first character), and Astra Blaster.
On Justice, Really Fast Guy and Lunar Paladin
On Virtue, Nefra-Isis

My daughter (who loved the game even more than I) was;

On Protector, Jolly Roxette (originally Teen Terra, but they made her change her name) and Small Blue Kat.

Several other servers had other characters. Notably Commander Justice on Exaulted, and I will miss EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM!

Salutations!  I'm Heliphyneau, global @Heliphyneau (surprise), most often called Heli.  I didn't really post on the CoH boards, since my account was joined with my husband's (CapnBarcode) and thus I didn't have a separate login.  I mostly played on Freedom, but also played on Liberty and Virtue.  Some toons you might have known me by:

Freedom:
Heliphyneau (grav/kin troller)
Heli's Revenge (DB/WP scrapper)
Ms. Katonicue (DM/Energy brute)
Heliphywhill (dark/dark controller)

It was a pleasure teaming with you and the RO community.

It was an honor to be recruited by Sailor Rush and meet all of you. I am hopeful I'll get the chance to spend more time with my RO friends and all of the other people I encountered over the years.



@Bjorn Stoutarm

@Heroette here.  My son set up this account originally, that is why it says "scalebeast".  I kept playing when he quit. I had toons on every server but I played mostly on Justice at the end.

Woot!  Hi, Heroette!!  Glad you're here!  I'd forgotten that Scalebeast is your Titan handle.  Thanks for the last dance under the Statue of Atlas in AP2 on Justice!  Unfortunately, my screenies from 11/30 are Shine-Ola or else I would post them.  Did you happen to get any good screenshots of Penelope Pistol and Capt Aqua dancing?  I don't know how you managed to get the timing right, but that synchronized Pop dance looked pretty cool on my monitor.
Your pal and SGmate,
@Kristoff von Gelmini

Sailboat here.  Played with the Amazon Basin on Guardian, Infinity, Liberty, and a few other servers.  Played with the Iron Eagles on Justice.  Teamed with the Tanker Tuesday folks on various servers.  Ran a few Gathering Storm pickup groups.

Lots of characters.  Old timers might remember from Guardian:

Sister Power
Queen of Knives
Ironclad
L'Oriflamme
Easter Island
Last Minoan
and from very, very long ago, Airacobra.

More recently:

Atlantean Princess
Stratospheric
Raintree
Daisycutter (especially a lot just before the announcement)
and especially...the Rainy Knight

And many others (Edwin Druid with the Lords of Destruction on Liberty)

DJMoose here(DJMoose1 on the offical boards).  I only started posting on the official forums in July of this year, and have been a lurker around CoHTitan until Black Friday.

Freedom:
My main Serkana (http://www.ladymoiraine.com/forum/gallery/27/2147-190812161917-27927119.jpeg) (Katana/Willpower Scrapper)

I had a lot more than that, but those were the ones I played most often.

My global was @Kane1.  I started using faith_grins as an internet handle long ago, but had already used my global handle change in CoH, so I was stuck with it.  I didn't really mind that, except that when I picked up a second account, @Kane2 was taken, so I couldn't change my global handle to match. =P  Oh, well.

Not that anybody here except maybe houtex would remember me anyway.  But, hey, I'll be hanging around these forums.  Maybe I can convince somebody that I'm funny for once.

I was @Kuriosity's Kat and my main spines/regen  the same. I played mostly on Triumph with characters on most servers.
On Triumph:
I was Izanami's Neko (fire/fire / fire tank) ; Erin's Kat (emp/eng  defender) specialty taking down Rikti commo officer's portals before the xp nerf; HH's Kat ( WS, in homage to a Big military science-fiction character & morphed into a memorial for my cat who was also named after the same character) losing her hurts the most.  :'(
If you saw a toon on Triumph with a possessive, followed by "Kat", it was probably me.

@Aehaed here. Somehow I managed to abominate that spelling even further as the atrocious handle I have here. I was always Airhead, although I was only able to nab that name on Exalted and on the forum. My main went by Aehaed, Air-Head and Air.head as he transfered around the servers, before finishing back on Infinity. I had other toons from the same unfinished novel: Knitwit, Duffer, Geezer, Kenning and Auntie. I also had a few toons that started life in CoH - Turnturtle, Bang Galore, and Weal.

Being on Singapore time I met only a few of you, but I know lots of you from the AE and Art forums. Awesome to see you all alive and well!

Hi! @Bunny Bullet reporting for duty!  In a sad kinda way  :-[

And so many more...

Many of you on the titan boards know me at this point, the rest of you may or may not. 

My original beta toon was a illusion/storm named Phase Light...when we went live I was a subscriber and Phase Light became an Illusion/empath who revelled in the pre purple-patch days.  Although I just didn't have the dedicated leveling time as some players, wow did my little scout/healer have adventures.  I choose hover-tp for her travel...and in the days before stalkers she was one of the few completely invisible toons.  She was retired and reactivated many times as the game changed...she came out of moth balls for the end because she was my first and I wanted to have some kinda of end to her story.  She ended her time 1 bar shy of level 40, having just participated in the battle inside sister psyche's mind and ensured the destruction of malaise.  Her home was Pinnacle and all her original friends were pre global names and are lost to the mists of time.

Psionic Avenger found her home on the Liberty server.  A member of the middle elves supergroup, along with several of my other Liberty server heroes.  Although originally human, the elven persona she took on in order to join her account sister in this wonderful SG became a near permenant look.  A kinetic/psi blast balenced build with jump kick, hover, fly made a synergistic, effective, and wildly fun toon to play.  She could send foes flying, put they to sleep, or weaken them merciliously, heal and boost friends, or destroy foes.  She was versatile and able to take on multiple roles, a true hero.  She was the hero to complete who will die 3.  It was an epic battle and she prevailed before the cruel destruction of her world.

Bloodstryke, also of Liberty, was a member of the Middle Elves and their base designer.  The very first toon I ever got to fifty, was created for that exact purpose.  An Elven Warrior Lass wth bloodsplattered golden armor and a broadsword she was originally shared by my husband and I until he got his own account.  She still misses her long lost friend Boognish and wishes he had appeared before COH vanished.  She became an incarnate, got several new suits of armor, but she remained an elf of action, without a real story.  She did not log on november 30th as an incarnate and having finished who will die 5-7 with her (without getting the chance to play the earier ones) I felt her story was complete.  She saved the world that day and could not avert the fcomming storm.

Siphoning Spark, Theta Light, and Paragon Thorn lived on virtue along with less important sisters.  Theta spent a little time adventuring in Kings Row a few weeks prior to Nov 30th, she chose to protect a bank and then camped out on a truck to wait for a miracle...she wanted a future but there was no time to give her one, only a few hours for a final memory.  She specialized in radiation.

Paragon Thorn did not have a particularly amazing story but she stood far more hours on the steps of Virtue's AP33 then was really wise considering I was using a laptop...on nov 30th she stood the entire time I was at work.  She was spines/sr and destroyed at the tender level of 12

Siphoning Spark, one of two kin/elec defenders my husband and I called "the twins".  She never got a final mission with her partner but she did get a gorgous flight over IP a resting spot on the bridge and was there in the channel talking to various devs when virtue crashed.

More to come, so many more...including my namesake and the very special story of the toon for whom I raced time itself to place on the Atlas Globe of Guardian with only moments to spare.

QuantumHero
We shall rise from the ashes, it is just a question of how.

Lt. Bad Guy. Started on Pinnacle moved to Virtue for more action. @drniceguy. Started With Dr Nice guy(fire/fire manipulation) on Pinnacle Shifted to Virtue when COV started to Create Dr. Bad Guy (fire/therm corr) then went on to Lt. (Merc/traps mm)

@LordArkasas, otherwise known as Lord_Arkasas and Lord Arkasas, a Necro/Dark MM on Champion, and later Beta. Joined in I9, subscribed on and off from I11 to I17. Never did get around to buying GR. Stood at the feet of Lord Recluse in Grandville on Beta until 2:18 AM, holding a torch. Waiting for City Rebirth.

@SargeMorris on station from Virtue.  Primary character was SGM Morris, secondary was Roland Krovacs.  And I'm still wondering how I kept Doctor Spengler for three years without being genericed, but I only ever pulled him out on October 31st...

all servers but Triumph was my home :
  globals :      Talos Maltalomar , Talos Maltalomar2, Talos Maltalomar3, Talos Maltalomar4, Talos Maltalomar5

Mains :

Talos Maltalomar  + any others with Maltalomar in the name ,

Hey, I teamed with you on an Ernesto Hess on Thursday, I think.  I remember you and Houtex and I think One True Blue were there, and then everything went insane in the last room and someone playing an Empath basically saved all our asses.

Hi, Wondy!

I remember you from BD's Mongolian Barbeque at Origins, couple of years running!

Hey, Hyperstrike was muttering about how we should still get together at Origins - you in?

I am The PumBumbler. I go where I am needed. I see some familiar faces here...

I already checked in, but I do want to say I love seeing all the new faces (to Titan Network) and old faces I've ran into throughout my seven years in the City.

Iorn Bull, Mr. Joshua (And all of the alts for him.), Kaymen, Schadow Shot, Anabell Lee among others.  or to simplify things @cerabus.


"I think I'll miss you most of all."  -Dorthy to the Scarecrow, The Wizzard of Oz.

Started the game in June of 2004, active for the whole ride.

Early Days on Virtue:

@TivoManiac

Miss Osculation
Ms Osculation
Sgt Dsylexia
Shade of Pale
Purple Haize
Dark Oosik
Blade of Enforcement
etc.

As I ran out of slots (before we could have more than 12) I moved to Triumph and somewhere along the way changed by global:

@PricklyDarkness

Prickly Darkness
Lady Valhalla
Flame of Enforcement
Obelisk of the Night
TerraStormer
Storm of Night
Dark Licorice
Sgt Haggis McAngus
etc.

About 32 50's in all.

Our proudest achivement was our time on a Sara Moore task force on Friday night about 5 hours before the end of the world.  We ran it in 1:17.

It's nice and yet sad to see the familiar names here.

I was Creole Ned on the CoH forum and that was my global as well. I had four 50s when the game was shut down. In order:

Angry Carrot, storm summoning/energy blast defender
Johnny Saturn, peacebringer
Carl the Bat, mind control/psionic assault dominator
Pacifier 1000, dual pistols/kinetics corruptor

Each took roughly a billion hours to get to 50 because I was never speedy at leveling.

As some others have said, I will check in here but don't know how much I will post.

@b0o-yeah

Started on Infinity a tad over a year ago. Finished a few 50s there and started my SG "Think Different". Yes huge Apple fan! Moved my SG and those couple 50s and some lowbies to Virtue which became my main home, mostly because there were people and lots of itrials \o/ Yes if you saw me it was most likely on an itrial although I did like to check out the interesting costumes/bios in the D.

Toons (50's only):

bro-yeah (grav/psi dom -- my first 50!)
b0o-yeah (empathy/dark def -- 2nd 50)
Miranda Widow (melee fort -- became my main toon for awhile)
Miranda Rad (rad/rad def)
Miranda Kin (kin/elec def)
Miranda Dominari (mind/fire dom)
Miranda Anechoic (cold dom/sonic def -- moved to Union in the last few weeks, really great group of itrial folks there!)
Miranda Evanesce (fire/cold dom corr -- moved to Freedom >_>)
Summer Shower (water/time corr -- my rogue and became my favorite toon! -> turns out red side is really fun at least in terms of strike forces)
Moncha (ss/fm brute)

I only had a few lowbies that I was experimenting with.

@Harlequin here... Played from September 2004.

Most of my toons were on Virtue:

50's
Mellenta: Emp/Psi Defender
Longbow Archer: TA/A Defender
Speed Ghost: Kin/Energy Defender
Sukie Redflower: Fire/Storm Controller
Ilya: Ill/FF Controller
K-Core: Ice/Ice Tank
Karpathia: Inv/SJ Tank
Seraphime: Fire/Fire Blaster
Powerslinger: En/En Blaster
Trella: BS/SD Scrapper
Antithesia: Mind/Psi Dominator
Mellendra: PB
Alpha-Echo: DB/Elec Brute

And sooo many that almost made it...

Ah haven't 'checked in' here yet.

Went by the global Thor's Assassin or @Thor's Assassin.

Characters were many but the mains were Thor's Assassin E3 Blaster and Assassin of Thor on the red side as a Ninja/Dark/Mu MasterMind.

Still archiving my other characters as we speak. But You would all know me from the forums as the resident artwhore ;)

Hey, TA!  Glad to see you here!  Thanks for the many TFs and iTrials you led.

Like many I'd maxed out toon slots on various servers, 107 characters spread across 9 servers, many of them long neglected lowbies I just wouldn't delete since I was hoping to get back to them someday.  It would have been a major work project that I put off indefinitely to  review each to see whether I liked the powerset combo I'd come up with was any good; but I also had a sentimental attachment to the character concept and often costume design of my early lowbies.  It was rare that I had a character who didn't have a toon biography.  I think I deleted only 3 characters total.  I'll add my 50's to the list:

Kristoff von Gelmini, triple dark def, Incarnate (hybrid 1 or 2), Infinity, also my global handle
The Battle Hag, rad blasting/dark def, Incarnate, Justice
Dr Starheart, grav/thermal moved to Exalted, probably had alpha unlocked, heh a neglected 50 who I never got around to respecing for Inherent Fitness
Aleksander Lavode, energy/mental manip, Justice, my "main" for long time, tier 4 everything even hybrid; both he and kristoff had the portal workbench. Crafting R Us.
Ebon ShadowStorm, dark/storm def, Incarnate, Justice
Mark Davis (I wanted a very vanilla name for him), Powers division, a near clone of Alexander, energy/MM Vigilante blaster, Incarnate, on Victory
Startide, grav/rad emission, Incarnate, Victory (designed for the SG 1st toon I built entirely on Mids prior to "rolling" him.)
Everett MacCrae, kin/psi def, barely Incarnate, Virtue
Capt Aqua, water/ice blaster, Incarnate, Justice
Mrs Frostfire, ice/fire dom, only had alpha unlocked, my last 50, Justice.

Hi everyone!

I'm @JennyMachX on Virtue (old handle @Mach_JenX). Played in late '08 to late '09.

I played heroes named Pyro-Wasp (later renamed Nova Wasp), Many Strikes Kachina, Kabuki and Cassie Bionic. I've only played one villain named Syndro-Tech.

I've met so many people during my time in the game but going through the thread, sadly no of the names ring a bell. It's been four years. If anyone remembers me, do drop me a message :) I'll do the same for anyone whose handle comes to memory.

I'm Von Krieger, went by Von Krieger on the forums and was @Von Krieger in the game. :P

I played all over the place, but mostly on Freedom and Virtue.

Most often I'd be on my SS/Fire Brute; Infernal Infested.

My previous go-to character was Spiny Sister, my Spines/Regen Scrapper, who was my first level 50. And I'll always remember WHERE I dinged 50 with on her. Last mission of the LGTF in the last room, just before Nemesis hit.

My other projects over the years have been:
Grape Jawbreaker (Energy/Will Brute)
Valin Erikson (Crab Spider)
Cowslip (Plant/Psi Dominator)
Ecstasy Wasp (Katana/Will Scrapper)
Latex Love Moth (Dark/Dark Brute)
Vanguard Phalanx (Shield/SS Tanker)
Depthkrawler (Claws/Elec Brute)

And a huge pile of characters who never made it very far.

Cobra Man checking in ....

Cobra-man, Cobra-Man
Doin' the things, a Cobra can
Spits some venom, in your eye
Sees a Mongoose, and then he cries
Look out!
Here comes the Cobra-Man!

...

Yes, I know I have a problem :D

Howdy! The name's Triplash. (@Triplash) I spent most of my time on Virtue, chatting, tailoring, street sweeping, afk'ing to deal with house stuff, ninja running or super jumping around checking out the scenery, and every once in a blue moon, running a mission. If you ever saw anyone in the 'Crystalguard' sg, or got a fortune cookie with your mystic fortune, that was probably me :)

I did have a few characters I played more than others, nearly all blueside and all but 2 under 30:

Triplash
Swathe
London Rain
Starchase
Inutsuk
Doctor Gizmo
Crash Test
Cage Match
Plucky Sidekick
Axebackward
Laserdisc
Dual Core
Firing Pin
Right Cross

And about twice that many that I only played occasionally or was waiting for other powersets to start properly. ...Yeah, the altitis was strong with this one.

It's good to see all these familiar names though! Hi! *Passes around a plate of cookies*

Freedom:
Vasarto
Dante Moretti
Persea Anderson
Dr. Granz Kilinger
Action Bastarrd
Sailor Star Fire

Here we go:

@StormVyxen aka Vyx from Protector.

My most notable characters were:
StormVyxen
Raelith (Member of the Scorpion Clan no less :) )
Babylon Project
Resonate
Stopmotion
Electrostatics
...and the list goes on, but those were the most notable alts I could be found playing.

Known variously (4 vip accts) as Bowan, Wikkid, NotListed, Mu Master:

Primary shard was Justice for blueside, or Freedom for redside.  Played at least occasionally on all servers, and nourished an extreme altitis.  When the sunset became imminent, I deleted pretty much everything below level 20, closed extra bases & consolidated most characters to my 2 primary server locations. 

The last few months I'd found the Iron Eagles SG with Ineffablebob & have been enjoying it immensely - the other hardcore SG's I'd been in both collapsed after a couple of months each - these guys just seemed to love making fresh toons & running together, seldom got bent-up about losing one.  I'll really miss them all.

Here's a fairly comprehensive roster of my remaining character gallery:  http://cit.cohtitan.com/profile/19537 (http://cit.cohtitan.com/profile/19537)

@TigerBaby and @Horizon Fire in-game (DH and I shared 2 accounts)
My 'main' and home base was Tigerbaby (MA/regen Scrapper, 50 +1) on Pinnacle, but i had a Tigerbaby on every server except Virtue (but I think the name might have been taken there by my first Tigerbaby, piggybacked on a friend's account when I was seeing if i could even run the game, as I live so far north connectivity is always an issue).  Between DH and I nearly every server list was filled, except for the expansion servers.  Tigerbaby had a Pinnacle villian-side analogue Wicked Tibby (also Incarnate) and some of my notable toons included: "This Little Piggy", "Nice Puppy", "Runs With Scissors" and "Ded Kitty".

I started playing shortly after launch, and played avidly for many years, but had moved away from the game up until recently (suffering from an excess of rl) but came back shortly before the doomsday announcement.  I mostly played on Tigerbaby, as he was the most-comfortable of all my characters to play (I was very rusty after several years' hiatus) and it made me terribly sad that my 'baby' toons would never be given the chance to 'grow up'.

Tigerbaby was a proud member of Twilight, Inc. SG and spent the 'end of days' in the company of fellow members Tanglespire and River of Dreams, right to the final dc.

I am grateful to Titan Network for giving us this refugee camp after our world was destroyed, and am keenly watching the efforts of those who fight to return it to its glory.  You never truly appreciate what you have until it is gone.

@Keiphy from Union here.

I really love iTrials, to the point that I consider it a compliment to be called 'obsessed' with them. I think I missed less than two dozen iTrial while I was on, over several months. If you did some iTrials on Union, you probably have seen at least one of my chars:

Eleasy (my main, fire³ blaster, been on way too many trials just because it's fun. Has WAY too much spare incarnate components ... if only there was a use for it ...)
Kistra (son/son/psi def, really fun ... but makes nearly everything boring with buffs/debuffs)
Fuzzykins (kin/son def)
Aekena (en/en/force blaster)
Namari (ar/en/mun blaster - really crazy range, can hit targets I can't even select)
Hot Spring (water/therm corr that I'm still getting used to)
Hidama (ss/fa brute that I originally made for farming ... but then brought to trials whenever an extra taunt was really needed; Eleasy farms better btw).

@Dispari from Virtue. Also an annoying poster and beta tester on the forums.

Currently playing GW2 with my girlfriend and some other CoH refugees. But I'm around doing other stuff too.

So many names here I remember fighting with.

@Perfy in game. Perfidus on forums. I played exclusively on Virtue, and was a heavy RP'er. (Still intend to be. NCSoft can take my game but it can't take my hobbies.)

My characters were as follows,

Raine Heartfall (And her praetorian, Lightsparrow)
Zaxa
Hellgirl
Auriana
Aeka
Kinzie Rose
Heavenly Sun
Snowbelle
Resplendent

Not all of these were still active, mainly just Raine and Zaxa were active in the end months. But that was my roster, and they're all preserved in screens.

o/ Howdy folks, @Vivace from Victory chiming in. Nice to see some found a second home here.
