Super Tailor Feature

When visiting the Tailor or Facemaker in City of Heroes or City of Villains, a new NPC is available. The NPC will allow you to change the inherent body type of your character. You can choose Male, Female or Huge body types. Additionally, you will be able to change your character’s height. So characters can change from a short, skinny civilian to a HUGE powered brute!

NOTE: The described scenario will only work if you have an additional costume slot available at Level 20 or through the redemption of Halloween Salvage.

Emotes

Science! Emotes

This pack unlocks two emotes:

• /emote experiment

Costume Change Emotes

Main Article: /cce

Also unlocked are two costume change emotes, which function like the /cc slash command with additional particle and sound effects. These emotes can be tied to a costume slot, or used with keybinds, macros, or directly input in the chat command line.

Historical

Sneak Peak

This section contains information about a past event in City of Heroes Freedom. It is provided for historical purposes.

In an April 28, 2009, interview at Massively.com[1], Positron said that the third booster's theme would be "superscience".

The next Super Booster is "Superscience" so players can look forward to crazy lab experiments and even cooler costume-change possibilities than we've ever offered before.

Also on April 28, 2009, Positron gave several clues to possible inclusions/exclusions during the anniversary event (partial chatlog):

04-28-2009 18:40:08 [Local] Positron: and Dr. Jekyll-costume change emotes

04-28-2009 18:25:35 [Local] Brutax: Positron, it's possible to give us more monster cossie like shark face, wolf tails, tentacle arm...

04-28-2009 18:25:50 [Local] Positron: Sounds like a Mutant booster, Brutax

04-28-2009 18:40:34 [Local] Zortel: Speaking of Dr. Jekyll, any chance of costume changes involving height change, or even from Male to Huge and such?

04-28-2009 18:40:50 [Local] Positron: Hmm Zor... that is an... interesting... idea...
