Description Commission for and . Both are characters from City of Heroes.

*Parallel Earth #3: Moscow - The thriving commercial center of Eastern Europe. Known as one of the largest and wealthiest cities in the world, it also boasts a large number of individuals endowed with special abilities and powers, on both sides of the law. Six months ago everything came to abrupt halt for the grand city as an alien invasion appeared overnight in the sky, a terrible and devastating battle ensued for 14 days. Upon the conclusion of the war half of Moscow laid in ruins, untold thousands have died, and the ranks of the cities protectors were decimated.

Today the only two remaining heroes of the once great metropolis lead a rag-tag band of Russian military on a quest to once and for all to vanquish the Rikti forces. The heroines Rowr - a humanoid tigress with ferocity in battle unmatched by any other - and Valkarye - discovered as a baby, raised by the military and taking the moniker based off a note found with her body – work tirelessly to see the day when the last alien has been destroyed.

Not another step back! For the Motherland!

We know. It's an alternate reality, where the USSR did not dissolve and became a very big world power.

Why all superheroes wear such a stupid costumes? I can't understand this thing for many years, so may be you can help me?

Rowrsie In reply to Charanty [2007-04-08 16:11:19 +0000 UTC]

That's a good question. But it's kind of like asking what's the meaning of life. I don't know why superheroes appear to wear not very functional outfits. I think it's more for style and appearance than anything else.

egmccann In reply to Charanty [2007-05-10 10:13:47 +0000 UTC]

Why do groups come up with uniforms? Why do sports teams have the designs they have? How about companies?

It's identity and image recognition. Some want to be identified with a country or idea, some just want to stand out and be identified. Some want something "awe" (or fear) inspiring. And some are just goofy.

It's their "brand."
