Heh. Harriet got ambushed. Talk to us, and please remember what I said at the beginning about not being all Lore this month (so, basically, don't talk about that).

I miss making holiday outfits! True, I miss making any outfits, but the holiday parties were always fun!
Happy Holidays to everyone and my Xmas wish this year is that we can get together in-game somehow this time next year!
Phoenix Rising's Model Citizen
Or at least be able to post screenshots of our Holiday Heroes from the Avatar Builder.
Nice story so far. What happens if Tarot's casters forgot the apostrophe, and the cursed presents are exchanged for the Paragons, and not the Paragon's?

Hopefully, Harriet won't get offed before the game even launches. That would be- for lack of a better word- awkward as hell. By the way, does anyone know where I can find some images of the heroes and villains mentioned? I just need, like, a depository or compilation of all these awesome concepts so I know what I'm visualizing here. If no concept art is released yet, I understand.
Also Merry Christmas.

Interesting plot. I think the hole Agent Tower was looking for is pretty obvious.
(Obscured for those who don't want to read speculation; highlight to read. We need spoiler tags.)

To the best of my knowledge, the only one with art so far is Anthem/Harriet. She's been getting art since before the KickStarter, but the rest have been a bit neglected...Other things have taken priority. Fear not, the art will come!
Happy Chanukah, or whatever else you may celebrate this time of year.

There has been some concept art... *goes off to check Winter's [url=http://cityoftitans.com/forum/kickstarter-update-reference-list]Reference List[/url]....*
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/missingworldsmedia/the-phoenix-project-city-of-titans/posts/943841 has her new look.... [img]https://s3.amazonaws.com/ksr/assets/002/531/640/832469a6cbc3cfc4209379e8ef11d608_large.png?1409786876[/img]

We're not actually sure who her allies are in this one. There has been speculation. ^_^

I should point out that there's something revealed in this update _about_ our Harriet.
[color=#ff0000]Project Lead[/color]
There's lots revealed about her. Not married (except maybe to the job), no children, needs (in the opinion of her teammates) to have more fun, can have the gauntlet on and not realize it...
What caught my eye was that she doesn't drink alcohol. I know of Marines who don't drink, but mostly because they were too young to drink legally, or they got into problems with alcohol. There are exceptions, of course. ^_^

One more thing you missed. (Unless we already revealed it.)
[color=#ff0000]Project Lead[/color]
Really good update! Glad to see these characters in a very laid-back, humanized light instead of all heroics. I feel like there's not enough of that in games. Also good to see the dynamic of Tarot and get a bit of info on them. :D
(Foradain, I think he's talking about the mention of her hand - or lack thereof - if I'm not mistaken?)

Well, I have to [I]hand[/I] it to you, Warcabbit. I missed that the first time I read through. Good thing I hadn't quite [I]left[/I] yet...

Is it that she changed her name?
I bet it's something like she's a lesbian
Currently trapped inside the Speed Force...
Wha..?! o.O Nope.
Why No Alcohol You Ask?
Maybe Because...... She's P_______! ;)
To the best of anyone's awareness, Anthem is straight. On the other hand, it'd take a heck of a person to keep up a relationship with her. Maybe one day she'll find that special someone.
City of Titans has characters of all orientations and genders, and welcomes them from the side of players as well.
(Honestly, I can't wait for some very special stuff I have in the back of my head to get approved through Composition.)
[color=#ff0000]Project Lead[/color]
Verrrry interesting...
Having read the story, and in light that there will be no voice acting, I now have to wonder if there will be Comic book style intros to some events in City of Titans?

Perhaps CoT will have an official narrator character who will perform puppet theater for us.

Can I [url=http://futurama.wikia.com/wiki/Robosexuality]discretely[/url] ask if Overclock is available? ;)

Perhaps the most interesting aspect of this story, so far, is that it shows us that it is quite normal for superheroes to have families.
This does assume that the Paragons are a typical example of a (hero) supergroup, but I believe that is a safe assumption to make. At least to the extent that one can apply the word "typical" to superheroes.

Based on what we've seen in the Comp chats, any such narrator, if it exists, may have a somewhat croak-y voice.

Hmmm... i just watched an [url=http://www.hulu.com/watch/723917]episode[/url] from that TV show Forever.. and after i saw it, i went to the comments at the bottom of the page. One person noted (Marie J. King) how s/he figured out who really Done it! (its a Murder Mystery crime solving show BTW). :)
It feels like the Lore was taking the same approach this time. Its Obvious on subsequent review(s), but not on the 1st viewing / reading. ;)
I tried for about 5 episodes to get into Forever. I thought the idea of an immortal guy was pretty cool but it just couldn't hold my interest. Too much like Elementary.
Currently trapped inside the Speed Force...
I love the acknowledgement that Anthem, even with her Armor on, still takes off her makeup. Symbolism of saying "I'm still a hero even if I'm not putting on my public face". I feel there's a lot of pressure for female heroes to be "attractive" and it's good to know that when Anthem goes home she can take of BOTH masks.

There is pressure on male heroes to be attractive too
Currently trapped inside the Speed Force...
And dont forget that she herself doesnt think shes worthy.. not so much not being worthy to use the Gauntlet, but what it entails to be wearing it... because of who wore it before her.
I am very glad you all are enjoying the story so far. You guys rock!
