Player Characters

Overview

The online worlds of City of Heroes and City of Villains are homes to an entire universe of heroes and villains, where thousands of other players take on the roles of super powered heroes - in a stunning, 3D graphical world.

Character Biographies

Player characters are as diverse as the players they belong to, and many players take the time to flesh out their characters by writing detailed biographies for them. Some veteran players who are more familiar with the CoX universe may even write bios for their characters that places them 'in-world', and give reasons why they became heroes or villains. Some players will elect to write their biographies over the course of their CoX experience, reflecting the growth or experiences of the character. However, the character ID card only allows for a limited amount of information to be entered, so bios do have to be short and to-the-point most of the time.

Cosutmes & Customization

Players are offered a variety of customization choices and options, including costume pieces and powers to create their own player characters. There are thousands of possibilities when it comes to customizing the appearence of character, ranging from costume sets (such as the "Enforcer" set) which gives a complete costume scheme, as well as other options that that are not neccessarily intended to fit together but do anyways.

With the introduction of Issue 11, players also customize weapons that their player characters carry as well, including types of weapons and colors of weapons.
