(I actually have another pair in mind, but I don&#8217;t want to belabor the matter too much.)<br \/>\n(While I&#8217;m sure someone will draw a parallel to <em>Mr. and Mrs. Smith<\/em>, it&#8217;s completely coincidental.  The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hill-kleerup.org\/blog\/heroes\/2005\/03\/weekend-update-1.html\">Thunderclaps<\/a> were an earlier version of this duo\/concept.)<br \/>\nWe spent a fair amount of time over the weekend running this pair, getting them up to 8.  Lots of deaths &#8212; hey, I&#8217;m playing a scrapper &#8212; but so far I&#8217;m pretty pleased by how its going.<br \/>\nActually, in some ways, this pair is the opposite of <strong>Psi-clone<\/strong> and <strong>Amorpha<\/strong>, power-wise at least.  Mind and Illusion Controllers are pretty similar, power-wise (though having the bubbles vs empathy does make a diff), and DM and MA Scrappers have a lot of close parallels as well.  A very different dynamic, personality-wise, but from gameplay I can understand what Margie&#8217;s doing, and she can follow my own issues and problems, and we both have ended up advising each other on character builds.<br \/>\nNext thing up for them will be getting them into the Alliance (since I think their chatter will be the most fun with them).  I&#8217;d been planning on bringing them into the Consortium, just for sake of ease, but Margie was mentioning going in as Allies.  Either would work; we&#8217;ll see.<br \/>\nAnd, hrm, yeah, we need to get some pics posted &#8230; (we did get some nice tells about their matching uniforms while we were running about yesterday).<br \/>\nMore info on our weekend gameplay <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hill-kleerup.org\/blog\/mtarchive\/008979.html\">here<\/a><br \/>\nUPDATE:  Hess and Citadel TF story written up <a href=\"http:\/\/freedomphalanx.com\/v-web\/bulletin\/bb\/viewtopic.php?t=1853\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Margie and I have finally gotten around to doing a husband-and-wife team &#8212; Mr. and Mrs. Azure.
