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 a half scottish, half puerto rican twenty something currently living in the greater philadelphia pennsylvania area. I live here with my wife who is a graphic designer.
  
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 Niviene's oblivion just yet which amazes me. So I guess I can't be that annoying.
 
 
Have current guides on:
 
DRR theory<br>
 
SO slotting<br>
 
Simple Market money making<br>
 
The Cap SF - focused on speed running<br>
 
 
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.

I mainly play on the Guardian Server. I have yet to actually reach level 50 despite playing for over three years and having my account active for over two years, I have the most fun running the lower level story arcs and making new characters based around what I consider to be interesting concepts. Most my characters tend to be on the "darker" side of heroism. Closer to Batman and Gambit rather then Superman or Spider man.

[[image:Archetypeicon_scrapper.png|left|22px]][[image:Originicon_natural.png|left|22px]]'''''Catwhoorg''''' level 50 Claws/Regen/Weapons Soloer of AVs and general defeater of Evil doers. My main Hero and he recently passed the 2.4 million prestige mark. With Police Scanner, Shard Missions and Safeguards he is pushing towards the 2 million mark pretty quick. A Lord in Fusion Force Legends. Sucessful soloer of Hamidon, in the Lady Grey TF

[[image:Archetypeicon_defender.png|left|22px]][[image:Originicon_science.png|left|22px]]'''''Mister Wales''''' level 50 Rad/Rad. Defender Superpower in Global Heroics. A Much in demand build I'll often switch to Wales to help with AV Runs or GMs in response to Calls in Triumph Watch 2.0.
+
 
+
 
+
[[image:Archetypeicon_defender.png|left|22px]][[image:Originicon_mutation.png|left|22px]]'''''Doc Pinewood''''' Level 50 Emp/Electric Defender Fusion Force. His background is confusing, crossing genres from 80s Films (Doc Hollywood) and Terry Pratchett (Trained by an Igor). Was a throwaway character at the time I made him but he fitted so well with on of my wifes characters that he worked to 50 pretty easily. Leader of a small superteam of all empathy defenders (along the lines of the Green machine). He has completed the States TF as primary empath, his well slotted vengance being used a few times. A few 'tweaks' to his build will optomise him in that role.

+
 
+
[[image:Archetypeicon_defender.png|left|22px]][[image:Originicon_science.png|left|22px]]'''''Dark Soy Sauce''''' level 50 Kin/Dark Defender Fusion Force Reserves. Originally part of the Condiment Crusaders (a food themed SG) who pretty much never got going as an SG. Transferred to Fusion Force as I do enjoy playing her a lot. Yay for Fulcrum shift!
+
 
+
 
+
[[image:Archetypeicon_scrapper.png|left|22px]][[image:Originicon_natural.png|left|22px]]'''''Kittenwhoorg''''' Level 50 Claws/SR My 3rd attempt at a RP child of Catwhoorg and Magrat. Not quite soft capped defence yet. He is a pretty fearsome adversary in his own right now, but I still prefer /regen to /SR.

[[image:Archetypeicon_scrapper.png|left|22px]][[image:Originicon_natural.png|left|22px]]'''''Rampant Lion''''' Broadsword/Invulnerability Scrapper. A Defender gifted into the world from the Kindly Ones.
  
[[image:Archetypeicon_tanker.png|left|22px]][[image:Originicon_magic.png|left|22px]]'''''Firey Red''''' level 50 Fire/fire tank originally from Liberty. Now transferred to Triumph and a member of Fusion Force. She has tanked the STF as the main tank as well as the ITF. Doom sayers about fire being useless still get short shrift in my book.

I'll be dual building him for sure with a Bane second build. Considered my villain 'main' these days. Very fun team build, lacking a little solo, hopefully the Bane build will cover that aspect.

I am a half scottish, half puerto rican twenty something currently living in the greater philadelphia pennsylvania area. I live here with my wife who is a graphic designer.


Paragon City

I mainly play on the Guardian Server.

Badge Year 10 Veteran.png Who's Counting?

It's been at least ten years since your first edit at Paragon Wiki, and, like fine vintage items, any more anniversaries are just numbers. This'll do.

You've helped welcome Paragon Wiki to its new home by adding more information about City of Heroes. (Awarded to everyone who made an edit in the year prior to September 1, 2009.)
