Real Life
In the real world outside of Paragon City I am a professional scientist. I'll joke about watching the curing properties of a coating film caused by solvent evaporation ie watching paint dry, but at times that is genuinely what I do. I work for the worlds 3rd largest producer of Carbon Black, and look at it uses primarily as a pigment in the inks, coatings and plastics fields. I have a PhD in Material Science, as well as two Masters degrees. I Studied at the University of Cambridge (Fitzwillam College) and the University of Dundee. I also worked as a post-Doc at Cardiff Univeristy.
I am British, but I am married to an American, and we live just North of Atlanta, GA. Together we have a Welsh cat named Magrat (who came over with me), and no children (but 3 nieces and 3 nephews within a short drive). Our Wedding in May 2006, was preceded a week earlier by an in game ceremony/party for our friends from around the world. Never imagined I’d be geeky enough to do something like that, but it was kinda fun.
Prior to my association with CoX, I was married before, and nursed my wife through terminal cancer. I am occasionally active in spousal support groups, especially when someone younger is diagnosed. Most spousal support groups for cancer have an older demographic, and different priorities. (Such as how to continue your relationship with your grown up children, rather than the younger persons sense of loss at maybe losing their chance to ever be a parent).
CoH Forums
I guess this is where I am most well known in the community, having posted enough nonsense to have joined the organization that doesn’t exist. Outside of the CoH general, I spend quite a lot of time giving input to the suggestions forums, answering player questions and the scrapper, defender and to a lesser extent the Mastermind sections. I haven’t been banished to Crickets Sugar Mines just yet – which amazes me. So I guess I can’t be that annoying.
Have current guides on: DRR theory SO slotting
But strangely never a claws/regen guide.
I believe defenders should blast, and will one day solo the Terra Volta Respec trial with Mister Wales just to show it still can be done with a defender.
Paragon City
I mainly play on the Triumph Server, and am part of the so called ‘Grand Coalition’ of Global Heroics (Winner of the best SG Award in 2005), Wildcards and Fusion Force.
A selection of notable characters:
Hero
Catwhoorg – level 50 Claws/Regen/Weapons – Soloer of AV’s and general defeater of Evil doers. My main Hero and he recently passed the 1.4 million prestige mark. With Police Scanner and Safeguards he will be pushing towards the 1.5 million mark pretty quick. He is in Fusion Force Legends.
Villans
ShadowCatwhoorg – level 41 Claws/regen stalker. ShadowCat’s background is tied to Anti-Catwhoorg, he is quite quite mad and a true assassin (no defeating here). Double Xp weekend were good for me here. Currently mid -patron arc and loving the storylines there
General
City Game Tracker character list
Fusion Force - also home of Triumphant Union/Discord
I have characters on every server, altitis really grabs me at times, and then at others it is focus focus focus on my current most played character. Liberty, Triumph are both Full. Justice and Infinty nearly so. Freedom is being used for new alts as of now.
I was part of both the SG and the SVG that don’t exist, and have never yet been part of the Legion of Catgirls.
