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.

Urban Empire

An idea for an end-game thug-type enemy group.

Enemy Types

Minions

Punk

temp image

These young hotheads are not the brightest bunch, but they are extremely loyal to their 'rightful' leader. This makes them a valuable asset to the Urban Empire which is smart enough, and strong enough, to utilize their talents. The punks' gang-related activities have taught them well, and they are pretty good shots with their pistols.

Weapon: Dual Pistols
Resistance
Punks have no inherent resistances. They do, however, benefit greatly from the leadership of enforcers.
Brawl (Melee) Foe Minor Damage(Smashing)
When all else fails, you only have your two fists to depend on.
Pistols (Ranged) Foe Moderate Damage(Lethal)
Small caliber sidearm.
Dual Wield (Ranged) Foe Moderate Damage(Lethal), Knockdown
You have been knocked down by the dual wield.
Empty Clips (Ranged Cone) Foe Moderate Damage(Lethal), Knockdown
Good at close range. Fires a cone of bullets and can knock some foes down.

Arsonist

temp image

The arsonists probably suffer from some form of pyromania. They likely hide some deep-seeded trauma or have some background of family dysfunction. None of that matters now. The arsonists' only pleasure is to burn things, and people, to the ground.

Resistance (Auto) Self +Resistance(Heat)
Experience Give the Arsonist some resistance to Fire.
Scourge (Auto) Self +Damage(Special)
The arsonist is a dastardly villain indeed. As an arsonist's foe's health wanes, the arsonist can start to land scourge hits with his attack powers for up to double damage. The weaker the target is, the greater chance the arsonist has of landing scourge. Once a foe is weak enough, there is no escaping the arsonist's wrath. An arsonist shows no mercy.
Molotov Cocktail (TAoE) Foe Moderate DoT(Heat)
The arsonist has set you on fire with his molotov cocktail!
Spit Fire (Ranged Cone) Foe Moderate DoT(Heat)
The arsonist has set you on fire with his spit fire!
Spit Fire (TAoE) Foe Superior DoT(Heat)
The arsonist has set you on fire with his petrol bomb!

Lieutenants

Enforcer

temp image

A natural leader. In another life, the enforcer could have amounted to something. Never-the-less, younger thugs can learn a lot from him, and are more effective fighters when he is around. He has seen his share of gang wars, and his experience with street weapons is invaluable.

Resistance (Auto) Self +Resistance(Lethal)

Bosses

Bruiser

temp image

These thugs are massive brutes. The bruisers have worked their way through the ranks and have nothing left to prove. They are strong, tough, and have mean tempers.

Resistance (Auto) Self +Resistance(Smashing, Lethal, Heat, Cold, Toxic), +Protection(Confuse, Fear, Placate)
The bruiser is a brute. He has good resistance to lethal and smashing damage and some resistance to heat and cold damage. He is street wise and his training makes him resistant to confusion, fear, and placation. His experience in the elements makes him slightly resistant to toxic damage.

Haymaker (Melee) Foe High Damage(Smashing), Knockdown(Chance)
The haymaker is a slow attack, but it makes up for it with a greater damage and a high chance of knockback.
Knockout Blow (Melee) Foe Superior Damage(Smashing), Knockup, Hold
The bruiser has hit you with a knockout blow. You are held.
Hurl (Ranged) Foe High Damage(Smashing), Knockback

The foot stomp has damaged you.

Elite Bosses
