Toons on Parade!

So, now that I have Psi-clone at 50 … what now?

  • 50Psi-clone: I expect, inevitably, that playtime with him will drop down some. I do still have some “story” to tell about him, but no realistic reason to think it will happen any more coherently than it has pre-50.
    Did a bunch of scrambling to respec him a couple of times over the weekend. I was singularly unimpressed by the Flash+Psychic Tornado combo — but, then, we were going against Praetorian Robots, and so any sort of psychic power is of dubious use. We’ll see.

  • 31 – Velvet Jones: Still regularly appearing during Phalanx Prestige Days. With the new I7 Defense bits, it may be that P-siren is more viable as a bubbler, in which case she might get more play. Otherwise, she’s still around as my “low 30s” toon.
  • 27 – Lynn Calodo: Just transferred her over into the Boomtown Saints, which should be interesting. Haven’t been giving her a lot of play lately; I should change that.
  • 27 – Torchielle: Current high-rotation toon. Was surprised to discover the other day that fire blasters are, any more, rare birds. I like the power set a lot. Awaiting I7 for a freespec to change to Fly. Though I suppose she could now join into the TV respec. Might be fun.
    She’s currently in an online story — which I’m not handling well, it seeming to drop off the bottom of my priority list way too often.

  • 21 – Fazenda: Pulled her out for the first time the other day, and had a lot of fun. Need to play her more.
  • 20 – Ho Ho: Stamina! Oh, blessed art thou among powers! Getting regular Monday play, and enjoying every bit of it. Still feels “slow” given the low attack rates on Axe, but playing quite solid beyond that. Made a fun Golden Age “mannish” costume for her for the 2nd Anniversary.
  • 16 – Mr. Azure: Needs more playtime. He and the Mrs. are in sort of a slump at the moment.
  • 14 – Amethyst Crown: Top candidate for dropping in favor of a new Squid. A solid contender, but Margie’s stolen her AT thunder with Blue Point, and I have plenty of other solo toons.
  • 14 – Honor the Flag: Just dinged 14, so she has (ta-daaah!) a travel power, Fly. Huzzah. Still sucking wind from endurance, but a good “let’s just run out to the Hollows and have fun” character. Still gets complements on the uniform.
  • 10 – Big Lungs: Second in line to be dropped, though I like her appearance.
  • 09 – Lady Zebra: Getting a fair amount of playtime. Still low enough that she’s a bit of a struggle. Like the powers, like the look, not impressed by the SG she’s gotten hooked up with.
  • 09 – Al McGordo: I really like him. Never play him. Rats.
  • 08 – Fr. Frank: Third on the list of drop candidates. No particular reason, just not playing him.
  • 17 – Mister Thorne: Lost his leadership role due to lack of playtime. Got it back. Just need to put his appearance on a schedule. Still not happy with the powers. Re-roll?
  • 16 – Mister Ravenous: Gotten some playtime in the last few weeks. Enjoy brutes. Maybe will do more now in my copious free time.
  • 11 – Eliza Dee: Sadly neglected. A pity, because I like her.

So, beyond the above status, what’s next? Kheldians, of course. I need to do some reading/ research, and there’s still the question of whether we want to run a two-squid team or not; yes, because that would make it easier for us both to start from scratch; no, because we could then hook them up with one of our at-loose-ends tunes (e.g., Al McGordo). Also need to ponder doing “experimental” squids first, to get the hang of the AT. To be pondered.
