Praetoria as seen in the CoH: Going Rogue trailer

Praetoria, also known as Praetorian Earth, is a dystopian alternate Earth, under the rule of Emperor Cole, who is known to the heroes of Primal Earth as Tyrant.


Praetoria is, in fact, a "mirror universe", where, unlike on our Earth, the most famous superbeings are twisted and evil, having given in to their darker sides. The Praetorian Archvillains are not as strong as their Paragon City counterparts, but they still prove a challenge to all but the most powerful of heroes.


The Portal Corporation refers to this dimension as Upsilon Beta 9-6. Several missions assigned by Tina Macintyre and Maria Jenkins take place there, and it is also the locale for the upcoming City of Heroes expansion: Going Rogue. The early press releases for the expansion were the first to refer to it as Praetoria.


The Praetorian archvillains are:


Defeating all of the Praetorian archvillains except Mother Mayhem, Shadow Hunter, and Tyrant earns a hero the Dimensional Warder Badge.


Badge

You have made yourself legend by defeating the Praetorians, an evil version of the Freedom Phalanx from an alternate dimension.


Successfully completing the mission "Defeat Tyrant and his minions", earns a hero the admiration of Statesman and awards the coveted Statesman's Pal Badge.


Badge

You have rescued Statesman from the clutches of Praetoria.

Additional Notes

Sadly, none of the Praetorians have goatees (barring Malaise, but this opens up a new can of beans, see profile).
