I&#8217;m pretty sure I&#8217;m behind on whatever level Margie&#8217;s gotten <strong>Blue Point<\/strong> up to &#8230;<br \/>\nMeanwhile, we created another set of alts on CoV &#8212; <strong>Eliza Dee<\/strong> and <strong>Mistress Bacchante<\/strong>.

Funny thing is, Galatea is modelled somewhat after the DCU&#8217;s Power Girl, an Earth 2 Supergirl version (origin rebooted multiple times).  So, after creating her &#8212; visually inspired by Galatea to the extent I could get the costume creator to do so &#8212; not 30 seconds had passed before someone ran by and said, &#8220;Evil PG, I like.&#8221;<br \/>\n*sigh*<br \/>\nOf course, then someone ran by saying, &#8220;nais ondies&#8221; (which, after a minute of puzzling, I translated to &#8220;nice undies,&#8221; but by then he was too far gone for Eliza to pummel him).<br \/>\nEliza herself may, or may not, be based on another Paragon hero.  She&#8217;s a Crey escapee, regardless, so &#8230;<br \/>\nAnyhoo, fun.  Works well with Bacchante&#8217;s plant mastery.<br \/>\nLast, but not least, got both <strong>Psi-clone<\/strong> and <strong>Amorpha <\/strong>up to 39 last night, after an overly-long marathon session beating back the Rikti again (a\/k\/a Rikti farming off in some emergency-force-fielded neighborhood).
