The Honoree

Overview

The Honoree is an Arch-villain of the Rikti. This character is the corrupted remains of what used to be the hero Hero 1, the leader of the Omega Team, who went to the Rikti homeworld to close the portal the Rikti were using to bring reinforcements to Earth during the Rikti War. This was done by erecting a magical barrier around the Rikti native planet, and the war ended once and for all. Like the rest of the Omega Team, he was tought dead, but we have had recently proof that the Rikti are now using him as their most powerful weapon to take the fight back to Earth.

Heroes and villains may fight him:

• during the mission Stop the Rikti, during the Lady Grey Task Force

Description

The Honoree reminds you of Hero 1, the hero who was sent to the Rikti homeworld and successfully destroyed the bridge between their world and ours. It is quite possible that Hero 1 was captured on the Rikti homeworld and subjected to mutations similar to what the Lost undergo, creating this new abomination.

Powerful focused punch that may Disorient your opponent!
Bone Smasher Melee, Smashing/Energy, Foe Disorient

Flurry Melee, Area of Effect Smashing/Energy, Foe Disorient
Launches a dizzying attack against everything in a nearby area.
Total Focus Melee, Smashing/Energy, Foe Disorient
Total Focus is complete mastery over Energy Melee. This is a very slow, but incredibly devastating attack that can knock out most opponents, leaving them Disoriented. Due to the exhausting nature of Total Focus, recharge time is very long. Damage: Extreme, Recharge: Long.
Mental Blast Ranged, Psionic, Foe -Recharge
The basic psionic attack does moderate damage and can slightly reduce a target's attack speed.
 ??? Self, +Resistance(Disorient, Sleep, Hold, Immobilize, Knockback), +Res(All but Psi)
When you activate this power, you become totally resistant to all smashing and lethal damage, and extremely resistant to most other damage, but also to most Disorient, Immobilization, Hold, Knockback and Sleep effects. Endurance recovery is also increased. Costs very little Endurance to activate, but when it wears off you are vulnerable again, and drained of some Health and Endurance.
