Description At the end of November, City of.. got its latest free expansion. Within this expansion included new power sets, one being Dual Blades. I had never been able to get into the other sword based sets, but Dual Blades was described as being fast...so I thought this might be the sword set for me...

So I made up Saberstrike...he's the Praetorian version of my main villain, Saberslash. The Praetorian Earth is basically opposite land from where the game takes place, and Saberstrike was cloned from the Praetorian version of my main hero, Razorstrike. However, the cloning process wasn't perfect, and due to the experiments the donor had done to himself...Saberstrike's got different powers than Razorstrike, Saberslash, and Razor's Praetorian counterpart.

Saberstrike can channel energy from inside his body and create energy based weapons. Though there is a catch, these energy weapons have to be attached to something metallic (the metal allows him to channel the energy and control it outside his body) and sohis choice weapons are dual energy blades, he also has mild invulnerabillity (aka Willpower, another new powerset).

So now Saberstrike has come across dimensions to help stop the evil Praetorians...which is what he is doing in this pic, surrounded by one of the Praetorian big bad's robotic minions.

Wicked awesome, man--I like the use of lighting for effect here--not just in terms of using the light-blade as the main light source but also the eyes in the BG--adds a really creepy edge to the pic. Excellent work! Very well done!

Thanks! I wanted to try out doing more colored lighting and with him having energy blades, I thought it would be too good to pass up on.

I think it worked out very well, and really shows how far your use of colour has come along.

Very nice. Costume is good and I LOVE the background, very scarey.

Thanks! I think the background fits a Scrapper too, always running off to do everything themselves...

Don't be ashamed, I play every single one of my characters like a Scrapper...and let me tell you, some of the looks I get on my TA Defender when I take off into an 8 man spawn by myself...
