Userboxes Back to Mileerolje's userpage. To my Dark Control page.

Much like my Dark Control page, this page is more of a suggestions & ideas as well as sandbox, though this page is specifically for NPCs and enemy groups.

Hellions

<one sec, if you're reading this I'm editing this ... probably>

Urban Empire

A new dimension and its inhabitants recently found by the Portal Corporation was aptly named after the ruling government that exists there: the Urban Empire. It is a ... less cultured world, being little more than a medieval system applied to a very unruly lot of thugs. Despite their anarchic-looking lifestyles, the citizens of this world seem to adhere closely to an almost worship of their ruling power, favoring order over street brawls with any outsiders they find.

The Portal Corporation of their world seems to know little more than minor teleportation, which evidence points to their lack of a Rikti invasion (assumedly meaning they never recovered technologies such as medicom teleporters and the like). The empire itself, however, still poses a threat in the sheer number of "active citizens" it recruits.

Heroes visiting this zone for information collection or other tasks should always exercize caution, as any natives encountered could be armed to the teeth.

NOTE: This idea is not only a villain group itself, but rather a (co-op) zone idea, accessed through both Portal Corps and Arachnos. I know, I know, co-op isn't always that great, but personally I didn't want to give it to either heroes or villains only. The above text was a hero briefing on the zone.

Minions

Punk

Description The punks are the lowest on the food chain in the Urban Empire. They're little more than trained thugs, though they do top other groups' low-ranking members like the Hellions. Most will be armed with at least a set of pistols, even if they don't look like it.

Powers
Weapon: Dual Pistols

Dual Wield (Ranged) Foe Moderate Damage(Lethal), Knockdown
Fires a shot from both pistols at the same time, dealing moderate damage and possibly knocking a foe off his feet.
Empty Clips (Ranged Cone) Foe Moderate DoT(Lethal), Knockdown
Empties both clips from the dual pistols, harming all foes in front of you and possible knocking them off their feet.

Arsonist

Description
The unorderly in this world rarely if ever seek help for their fanatic addictions such as arson. Instead these hotheads tend to work for the enforcers of the government, relishing the days where someone forgets to pay up protection money, whence they get to drop a little present on those unfortunates.

Powers
Scorch (Melee) Foe Minor Damage(Smashing/Heat), Minor DoT(Heat)
A handful of hot coals hurts enough, but being punched in the face with them is even worse.
Molotov Cocktail (TAoE) Foe Moderate DoT(Heat)
A simple yet effective firebomb, no?
Spitfire (Ranged Cone) Foe Moderate DoT(Heat)
Yet another way to dazzle foes as they burn to a crisp.
Fire Bomb (TAoE) Foe Moderate Damage(Smashing/Lethal), Minor DoT(Heat), Knockback
For a not-so level-headed person, this must be what you call 'the fancy stuff.'
