Christmas has come to Paragon City!

14 Dec, 2005

Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat - and heroes are filling the skies with their jingle jet packs....

Jingle jet pack in action!Thanks to the kindness of Ms Liberty, heroes are zipping around the city with their brand new, top of the line ‘jingle jet’ rocket packs, and brandishing their unique badges.

If you haven’t taken one of these babies for a test fly yet, login to any European server to see what you’re missing!

But while these first gifts have arrived for all good heroes, that was only the beginning…

Operation Holiday Cheer

Longbow contactWord of the joyful celebrations in Paragon City has reached the shores of the Rogue Isles, and Lord Recluse grows uneasy. Fearing that his villainous lackeys will be lured away by the promise of a jolly holiday season, he has set Operation Scrooge into action.

At his bidding, villains will soon begin to creep towards the peaceful streets of Paragon City, intent on making sure that no one has anything to celebrate.

Details of this nefarious scheme have reached Ms Liberty, and she has organized a counter strike: Operation Holiday Cheer is now in motion.

Heroes, prepare to enter enemy territory! Beginning Thursday, December 15th, Operation Scrooge and Operation Holiday Cheer will battle for control of Christmas.

Gamester’s Holiday Festival of Fun

You've been nice!While these operations are beginning however, a new figure is watching from the shadows. Acting outside any simple definition of ‘hero’ or ‘villain’, this mysterious figure is known only as Gamester. Delighted by the growing tension, he is ready to intervene and announce his presence in a shocking way!

No simple trickster, Gamester is irrationally fond of dangerous pranks and fiendish shenanigans. Seeking fun in his own twisted mental world of games and puzzles, he has no concern for outcome, but is searching only for the next game to play. To him, the bigger the risk, the more thrilling the challenge. 

Inspired by both hero and villain operations, Gamester has hatched his grandest game yet and plans to release it upon both cities! Gamester’s Holiday Festival of Fun is a game of chance that allows everyone to play and see what fate holds in store.

With gleeful anticipation, Gamester plans to unleash his Holiday Festival of Fun across Paragon City and the Rogue Isles on Monday, December 19th!

Come and see what fortune might be yours before the festivities end on January 2nd!

Oh fantastic smile

I am looking forward to depriving you pathetic heroes of Christmas cheer this season.

As totally unofficial spokeswoman and rogue operator of the Sex Demons, I warn you heroes…

You’d better watch out
You’d better not cry
You’d better not pout
And I’m telling you why…

Cuz we’ll kick your sorry a**es goodbye
smile

You have been warned!

Nicely nice.  Cheers dudes.

Don’t know who this guy is, but I don’t wanna meet him. He could give me an exploding present or somethin like that. He might just get me to turn into one of his minions or somethin like that. But I must stand strong for paragon city! Let my superhero roam the lands in freedom of Gamester(my character isn’t created yet)!

0Posted by Uncle Scam on 16 Dec at 17:35

If there’s one thing i love in life it’s making kiddies cry so it will be a pleasure to steal there presents.

Beware villains!!!

I the Ahl man will soon be back from my special training with my 5 man team of special (and legendary) caracters.

And villains im so happy you finally showed your ugly aura in town, i was starting to get bored going tru your minnions to deliver the message to the eavil forces opposing peace and order in Paragon.

Those 5 caracters of mine whold be all lvl 33 and smile

Blaster: AOE energy blaster can deliver an AOE alpha strike with same (or eaven grater)damage dealing as an NOVA (and that is ½ of the maximum power he can use in less than 30 sec).

Tanker: Invincible tanker able to herd lusca arms (that defence counters so mutch aggro so ondly 8 people is needed to take him down with less than 2 deaths in team per lusca).

Controller: Able to controll an army of controllers (CoT’s), and hes full potential has not been reatched yet but will at lvl 35 (yay 2 more to go)

Defender: Able to heal and buff team with so mutch force so using RA power will not be enoph to ceep end from dropping to 0.

Scrapper: An basic martial artist with one mean Jump-kick (imagine beeing kicked from an SJ user when he jumps you lol).

And i might join the dark side as well next year so heroes beware (especially you statesman).

0Posted by Eklips on 16 Dec at 22:14

Everyone shuld keep an eye on Gamester. we don’t know who’s side he’s on yet. if he sets one toe out of line (and this applies to heroes AND villains) beat him til there’s nuthin left!
Statesman or Lord Recluse with reward you greatly.
BTW i’m getting COV 4 christmas. thats why im in such an evil mood. >rasberry

0Posted by Zebal on 19 Dec at 16:07

Oh, joy. We can now get truly wasted! Christmas really rocks that way…
But on a more ‘serious’ note, the Gamester Probably doesn’t like me. No one else does. I am Zebal! A Humble mind-controller, which means that people awake at 3am think im a girl and everyone else uses me as a tool to look cool. Not a bad idea, just an annoying one.

P.s; Zebal Is a jake! -Sweeper D

0Posted by Zombielord on 21 Dec at 08:10

HAHAHAH like i planned i stole th presents now ur all goin to cry coz i killed all those longbows on that boat n turned them to my side now those presents are gonna go to lord recluse n again
U BETER WATCH OUT FOR ME
MERRY CHRISTMAS SUCKAS

0Posted by Keneticam on 22 Dec at 00:48

I was really fun. In city of villians you have to steal the presents. In city of heroes you get the presents back that were stolen.
