10 years and so many styles...

    I was thinking a little more on style pieces and why I went kinda generic on my favorites, and I realized that it's because I've got specific themes I stick with on my characters. So while there have been a lot of great styles they don't all get the same amount of use on all characters. So I thought I'd list my character themes and give some shout-outs to particular themes or styles that fit in with their themes (and I'll REALLY try and keep it short for each character, but no promises LOL).
    • Will Chill was my first character and kind of my prototype hero, so he's one that uses a lot more of the classic spandex looks. With him being Ice I also throw any ice themed/related Materials, Auras and costume stuff his way (he's the character I collected the Captain Cold holiday gear on, for example).
    • Techhawk is a Gadgets character with a Thanagarian/technology mash-up theme going, so any hawk or tech stuff goes her way. Wings, hawk helmets, tech/armored looking gear is all hers, as well as some of the more shiny metallic Materials.
    • AmericanArcher is my version of a super soldier with a bow (but yes, he got the Shield weapon when it came along lol) so his focus tends to be gear that looks like it could belong on a military outfit. He also got the Stealth and Tungsten Metallic materials when those came out, but I REALLY like the Neon Camo Chromas for some of his looks.
    • Headlong is my Electric speedster, and since I made her Magic mentored she gets/uses Wonder Woman and Shazam gear as well as Flash stuff too. Electrical themed stuff will also go her way, like the Tesla or Thunderstorm Auras.
    • Flynne Cordova is my Light character, so most of his looks are variations on the various Lantern corps (except Star Sapphires, personal choice to stick to the "ladies only" aspect of Star Sapphire canon lol). A lot of spandex styles here with the Kryptonian Flexsuit and Paneled and Daggerpoint Bodysuits getting some use as well. Though his Sinestro Corps outfit still looks more like a Halloween outfit than anything else...
    • Amelia Powers is my Superman Family fangirl. LOL Earth powers but done more with a super strength/Kryptonian theme, so she gets the Superman stuff (she was only one of two characters to get the Superman anniversary emblem when it was available). More spandex stuff, but I always try to incorporate some version of the emblem in her outfits.
    • WaterCooler started as Ice but switched to Water, so anything aquatic goes to her, as well as things that might look like they come from the sea (she got the full Gorgon Slayer and Primeval suits). She also received the majority of the Iridescent materials as you can see that a lot with sea creatures and scales.
    • WizardofSpeedandTime is my Quantum character but Tech-based so most of his outfits have some kind of tech look to them. He got the Time Torn and Cosmic/Dark Cosmic Chroma materials. All of his looks use the Split Personality back, though, which looks like a pocketwatch/timepiece.
    • GrimmSight is my Rage character, so mostly Red Lantern looks. I do have one outfit that kind of pays homage to the CO character I based him on, though.
    • DoubleFission is Atomic, so the Scorching and Nuclear Materials went her way, as did the Phoenix Material. Just about all her looks use the Phoenix material in her hair, and her outfits range a bit from spandex to slightly armored (sometimes uses a tech suit to control her power discharges).
    • MaliciousMomentum is Headlong's villainous counterpart, but she's Meta so less use of magic character stuff (though the Magic's Champion chest does get some use on one outfit, that lightning bolt is too good not to use). But mainly spandex and some Electric themed stuff. She did get the Negative Speed Force material, though.
    • Loveshock is my Electric Cupid, so a lot of magic/Amazonian stuff like the Shim'Tar gear went her way. She got the Wings of Sin, but anything cupid-related or stuff that could be found in Greek myth shows up with her. But since she's a cupid, I've also got some Star Sapphire outfits I can use with her.
    • QuikkBat was my Flash/Batman mashup that I made before Red Death came along (really, I swear! lol). She'll get some tech styles (Gadgets) as well as some Flash items but she's the one that gets all the Bat stuff. Even though she's more of a vanity character (doesn't get progressed) I still like making outfits for her. She did get the full Red Death ensemble from the TCs, though.
    Yeah, I know that's a lot there. But I DID keep it short for each one, trust me. With each character having multiple Armories (and more characters that I didn't mention) I really could have written a novel here. :D

    Thanks! I'm just glad I remembered the spellings of the character names right. LOL Had to get a little creative at times with spellings to get the names I wanted, and there are times I can't remember if there are spaces between words or which letters are capitalized. :D

    What a fun thread. There are so many it's hard to list, but let's do this:

    Gorgon style (that skirt)
    Rave Boots (#SassyGMBoots)
    Wings of Sin
    Cosmic Material (and Dark Cosmic Chroma) since they can bring new life to older styles in my own personal preference look)
    I love the cosmic weapons


    I know that there are more but I can't recall at the moment.

    I remember when I got wings of sin for my alt... I was the happiest girl xD Since she's a winged warrior (Hathor, and previously Hawkgirl)
    The wings are just unique and my favorite of all wings. Sadly I'm holding myself back from using my remaining replays to unlock it on my main, at least until I can get more. lol
