Featured Hero #35
Name: Skyborn
Origin: Mutation
Archetype: Blaster
Primary: Energy Blast
Secondary: Energy Manipulation
Server: Protector
By: [info]mahdi
Skyborn came to Paragon City shortly after the first Rikti invasion, and has spent his time since then helping the citizens of his adopted home. He has worked closely with the PCPD, as well as the Vanguard. During the second Rikti Invasion, he was instrumental in stopping several incursions.

When not in "uniform," Skyborn is Marcus Chiang, a doctor at Steel Canyon Medical Center. Marcus was born in San Francisco, California. His childhood was a fairly normal one, but when he began puberty, he noticed he'd developed an affinity for energy sources. Over time he began to develop ways to harness and channel energy in a raw form, using it to do anything from firing bolts of charged particles to flying. He resisted becoming a super-hero until after he finished medical school, and might have continued on as nothing more than a doctor had it not been for the Rikti Invasion.

The Rikti war proved to him that he was needed. With his family's blessing, he moved to Paragon City to begin his two careers: Doctor and Superhero!

Like it really matters. [userpic]
I love my Emp's build <3

My Empath has gone through a lot of tweaks and changes throughout his 2 1/2 year lifespan. I've been in love with him all over again, over and over, as he has adapted to my playstyle and group and everything the game threw out since i3. He's been pretty much everything, from a staminaless build with leadership and attacks with 6slotted damage, to his most recent build with 50+ HOs (which are a pain to remove). But the point is that I don't think I've been this geeked over his build, ever, including preED. The only thing that could make it better is if they hadn't nerfed the status protection IOs... though who knows where I'd nab the slots for them at this point.

So I'm gonna share. I know most people really don't care... but I keep trying to tell my friends - who already know I think he's hawt. And I thought, hey, the community is supposed to be a place to get geeky with people who at least have a clue what you're talking about, right? And I am geeky about him to the point where I will stare at his slotting and, finding nothing I'd do differently, beam endlessly.

IOs and HOs ahoy. )
