Curse You!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Finally, I wanted to give public thanks to Lee for sticking with me through Hang Time&#8217;s first Arch Villain storyline &#8212; he was especially helpful while HT was suffering from the Vazhilok wasting disease&#8230; though the pointing and the laughing didn&#8217;t exactly add to his Good Samaritan act.<br \/>\nEnd result: we saved the city from being dosed with a nasty virus, completed the mission, and I got a cool reward, but Doctor Vazhilok escaped through the city sewers (the two of us just didn&#8217;t *quite* have the firepower to beat him down, and by then it was took late to invite anyone else along).<br \/>\nThe coolest thing was not having to DIE to figure out we couldn&#8217;t beat him.<br \/>\n<b>Update: 1\/27\/05<\/b><br \/>\nLast night, While I was talking with Stateswoman about a place for Hang Time in the Freedom Phalanx (a Super Group on Champion server whose goal is to play In Character as much as possible), she got a call from a Group member named Doppelganger, who had tracked down Doc Vazhilok again.  Stateswoman was tied up (and actually way to &#8216;big&#8217; to do this Arch Villain mission anyway), and I immediately asked for another shot at the rat bastard.<br \/>\nSo, once again, it was a two-person run at the leader of the Vazhilok.  Doppelganger was great, and it felt like I was playing alongside a higher-level version of Rose.Red &#8212; he has almost exactly the same power set &#8212; so I know just what to expect from him (except for his Green Lantern-like ability to summon a Phantom Army &#8212; that was fanTAStic).<br \/>\nAnyway, we wiped the floor with Doc Vaz and teleported his disgusting self back to the Ziggurat.   Then HT went and had himself a good long shower. Ugh.  If I never see another sewer again as long as I live&#8230; UGH.<br \/>\nAlso, joined the Freedome Phalanx, which is a really large group of players who can TYPE &#8212; and like to type IN CHARACTER.<br \/>\nVery very pleased.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Finally, I wanted to give public thanks to Lee for sticking with me through Hang Time&#8217;s first Arch Villain storyline<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-626","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-mmos"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/randomaverage.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/626","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/randomaverage.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/randomaverage.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/randomaverage.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/randomaverage.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=626"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/randomaverage.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/626\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/randomaverage.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=626"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/randomaverage.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=626"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/randomaverage.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=626"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
