If you are new to City of Villains or just looking for a quick answer to the most common questions, please read the game's FAQs.
Welcome to the Paragon Wiki!
Welcome to City of Heroes and City of Villains, the online world that's home to an entire universe of heroes and villains, where you and thousands of other players take on the roles of super powered heroes and villains in a stunning, 3D graphical world.
This wiki is intended to be a central repository of all things that have to do with NCSoft's two MMORPG's, City of Heroes and City of Villains. This wiki is a community effort. If you cannot find the information you are searching for, please add it to the wiki for other users to see.
To find information, use the search box on the left, or feel free to browse the available categories.
This wiki is provided by the Paragon City Free Press, a fansite dedicated to the enjoyment of City of Heroes and City of Villains by providing more depth to the game.
Please see the Editing User's Guide for information about how to write and create articles for this wiki.
Recent Updates
- A link to the forums has now been placed in the navigation tool bar. Be sure to check in often to see what is new and planned for the wiki!
- The site now has an icon! Some browsers (Firefox and Opera, among others) support icons in the address bar, and you will now see it there. Others (such as Internet Explorer) support the icon, but only in bookmarks.
- The sites formerly listed on the front page have been moved to the Community portal page, accessible by a link in the navigation box on the left from every page. Please check out some of these sites, as many of them provide a wide variety of utilities and services and in-depth information!
- The effort to complete the documentation of the City of Villains exploration badges in a standardized format is done. (See News item below for more information.)
- Added a Warburg Missile Launch Mission article to describe the steps involved in completing this mission and receiving your Warburg temporary powers!
- Confused about how coordates work in City of Heroes and City of Villains? Check out the new article that details the coordinate system!
- The site has recently changed hosting providers. This process should be rather transparent, as everything works as it did before. There is one change, however: the site URL has now changed to http://paragonwiki.com. The old site (http://www.pcfreepress.com/wiki) is redirecting to the new site, so all old links will still work, but please use the new URL going forward.
- Yes, we do stay on top of everything! Within hours of the Valentine's Day Event 2006, Paragon Wiki had articles about the event itself and the two badges (Heart of Light for heroes and Heart of Darkness for villains)!
- Thanks to the dedicated efforts of StarGeek and Yakovlev, there is a ton of new content about villain groups in the wiki. Check out the Enemies category for the list of enemies, expanding daily through the hard work of these users.

New Hero Wiki Skin Implemented
Changes are afoot! There is a new skin called "Heroic," and it has been set to the default skin of the wiki. All existing accounts have also been switched over to the new skin. If you prefer the old skin, simply go to your Preferences under the Skin settings, and set your skin back to MonoBook.
The changes are purely cosmetic and do not affect the look or feel of the actual wiki content, merely the outer navigational, header, and footer appearance. If you experience any difficulties with this skin or you have any comments or questions, please post a message on the wiki forums and let me know. Otherwise, enjoy!

Software Upgrade
The Paragon Wiki has been upgraded! This weekend, after extensive testing and and development of software installations and automation scripts, the MediaWiki software that runs the Paragon Wiki was upgraded from verstion 1.4.9 to version 1.5.6. (If interested in the technical details, please see the MediaWiki release notes.)
When all was said and done, the upgrade went very quickly and smoothly. The wiki was down from 3:20 am EST until 3:23 am EST. For a pretty major upgrade, that's not bad at all. Still, if you notice any glitches or problems, please e-mail tonyv@pcfreepress.com or post a message on our forums.
If you happened to try to access the wiki between 3:20 am EST and 3:23 am EST early Monday morning, I apologize for the inconvenience.

City of Villains Exploration Badges Complete
Hey all, a rather intensive effort over the past couple of days to document and audit all of the City of Villains Exploration Badge articles is complete. In addition to the normal wiki information fare, each article has got the badge description, a detailed explanation of how to get to the badge, and an in-game picture showing you exactly where the badge is. Also, each has been formatted according to a rational standard and categorized correctly.
Valentine's Day Event 2006 Wrapping Up
If you have not participated in the Valentine's Day Event 2006 activities, you should be sure to log on now. The event wraps up the morning of Wednesday, February 22, 2006, so you only have a little time left!

Valentine's Day Event 2006
Wow, a brand new unpublished event was sprung on us today! At midnight Eastern (for the east coast servers) and 9 pm Pacific (for the west coast servers), heroes and villains who logged in received a new costume part and an accolade! Read more about the event in the Valentine's Day Event 2006 article!
