CoH: Doctor Dave

[dvandom]

Replace the vest with a long-sleeved cardigan in the same color and add a watch, and you pretty much have what I wore at work today. I like how I manage to get a bit of a paunch on there too, although the hero version is still a bit too ripped. :)

Trivia note: the original Solar Max costume from 1989 was me in red shirt, black pants, wraparound shades and a gadget bandolier (my hair was longer and I had more of a muttonchops thing going on, though...and no gray in there). Doctor Dave is a Gravity/Radiation Controller, which is pretty close to the original Solar Max as well. Heh.

Earth Control (http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Earth_Control) mainly does things like make rocks surge up around a target and trap/crush them, and there's a "stamp your foot and make a spiky shockwave" Stalagmites power too. TerraRyze does that stuff.

Might have to check that out, thanks.

(Is there a FX-based guide to character building out there? I poked around the official message boards a bit over lunch, but the character guides I saw were mostly concerned with how different power sets interact from a character power POV.)

Edit: Aha! Sonic resonance! Thanks for the wiki link, Dave.
