Lab Work - Suit Updates

I took some time out from more critical inventions like my Incarnate Devices today (since every good scientist needs a break) and went back over some old designs/prototypes I had.

While my Vanguard Flight Suit has been a fine success, my older Battle Suit and Thaumaturgical Haz-Mat Suits have languished without upgrades for a few years now.

Back to the drawing board, and I've produced some much sleeker and more efficient armours for high-magic and heavy combat areas. I expect I will be utilising these outfits much more frequently than their predecessors.

Further Praetorian Invasion Attempts

It's been a while, but it looks like this so-called Emperor Cole has tried to send more of his lackeys to take over our Primal Earth. This time, they hit Paragon City - specifically in Kings Row (a grimy little district, which I never had any cause to visit even when I was a PC resident).

Regardless of where they hit, Arachnos refuses to let them get a foothold on our dimension, so I suited up in my Vanguard Flight Suit (so that goody-two-shoes hero Apex wouldn't recognise me) and took Apex's mission.

I was ably assisted by a selection of heroes and villains - namely the Scrappers Super Ready, Mystel, and Alexander Hamilton; Defenders Neo-Gene and Quaver; the Brute Inihilus; and my fellow Mastermind Nidah.

Once we arrived in Paragon, we discovered the Praetorian WarWorks had made short work of the police precinct - it's officers were just barely holding out. Once we cleared up that mess, and an issue with some Rikti Pylons and Hydra creatures in the sewers, we were then rerouted to Steel Canyon's Blyde Square where one of Cole's Lieutenants - Battle Maiden - was causing havoc.

Unfortunately, her nano-technology jammed my ability to get a signal out from Steel Canyon, so i have no footage of the fight. Her tech was impressive, but I feel overly whimsical, taking the form of swords flying through the air.

That said, I need her orbital bombardment capability. Perhaps I can rig some form of satellite with some Incarnate-level components. Or perhaps.... yes, I could rig the ZR Aegis Transponder to emit some charge of requisite power...

My Incarnate Power Grows!

Today saw the furtherance of my latest project - to harness the power of the Incarnate. Working with Lord Recluse I was able to gather eight villainous allies (alas, their names now elude me from the heat of the moment) with whose assistance I was able to fight past the Kronos Titan, the Vindicators, et al to face off (once more) with the Freedom Phalanx.

Statesman and his lackeys were able to put up a valiant fight and caused us to retreat a good many times. However, each pass was data for my ZR Aegis Transponder to analyse. And eventually they broke - and I had the data I needed.

Now, I am more powerful than ever - my level of Incarnate power is now rarer than ever. Indeed, the device now has the ability to boost the combat ratings of both myself, and my ZR Autonomous Combat Systems.
