Villainish Drift

I might as well post this here – incentive to eventuallywork on the rest of the character bios, and to have it someplace handy so I don’t lose it in the future.

I don’t remember much of who I was, most of which was told to me by him. There are times where things feel familiar, smell familiar, blurry memories that I’m not entirely sure are mine. Sometimes I have fleeting memories that I can’t quite pull into focus, memories from this world, and memories from another. Another world that I can’t remember, yet I’m certain I’ve been there before. Memories of this world, places that I can’t quite recall.

I look into the mirror and see a face that isn’t entirely mine, yet is mine. I can shapeshift into another form that isn’t entirely mine, yet is mine. I’m told I nearly died from a horrific accident, yet I remember none of it. I’ve also been told stories about the alien who merged with me to save my life, yet I remember none of it. We don’t remember any of it. Not entirely human, not entirely alien.

I look into the face of the beloved of the person who was once me. He’s a stranger except for fleeting memories that hint at the bond of what once was. I see the pain of my not knowing, the patience on his part that one day I’ll regain the memories of who I was, who we were. I don’t know if I’ll ever truly remember who I was, who we were.

The tally of 50’s has increased by 1. Radi dinged 50 the other day and I’ve been remiss on mentioning it. And she dinged flat on her ass. Let me explain. I have a screene of her dinging, while getting knocked on her ass by a PPD Awakened (aka PB’s ala villain group on the villain side). The screenie of this may or may not get posted – it depends on how badly I wish to humiliate myself.

Midnight’s also back for a second incarnation. This time she’s an elec/nrg Brute, which as of level 5 or so, is insanely fun to play. For me, she’s kinda trampy looking, but it somehow fits her. Scantily clad in black, thigh-high boots and purple hair.

And in other news, I’m still in love with Night. I forgot how much fun she was to play. I know I’ve said that before, but I can’t help but repeat that again. I ran her through the third respec last night, only had her in Nova form for travelling (I still can’t quite get the hang of SJ and Teleport, though I was using TP to put her in a mob then hitting Mire with Inky Aspect running. Fun stuff). And she didn’t die once. There may have been one or two others that didn’t die once, but for the uber squishie AT? Not shabby.

It was funny having someone call out “I see a White Dwarf”, and because of who it was that said it I didn’t believe him. Then I turn the corner and see…. a White Dwarf. Didn’t phase me in the least, took him out easy. Voids, Quants and Nova’s/Dwarves don’t seem to bother Night as mush as they do when I play Star. I know it’s because of the differences between PB’s and ‘Shades. But dayum.

Meanwhile, I need to take an evening and work on sorting out salvage, recipes and whatnot on the V-side. Both base enhancement bins are bursting, and all of my villain alts are stuffed to the gills with salvage, recipes, and more salvage. A chunk of the recipes are invention enhancements that I’m hanging onto to either sell until I get that badge on Rae, or to craft to work on /those/ badges. Now if I could get a frelling costume drop. Grrrr. I have yet to see A. Single. Frelling. Costume. Drop. This has me pissed beyond belief.
