Description
Relatively late in the production of GOING ROGUE, we realized that the first zone (Nova Praetoria) would need an additional low-level villain group beyond the ones we already had planned. Enter: the Destroyers, Praetoria's version of the Trolls. Like that low-level villain group from Primal Earth, the Destroyers are a street gang that relies on a drug to gain super-powers, but at the expense of their humanity.Their distinguishing feature is a series of tattoos that expand in complexity as drug-use, power, and group rank increases. They also tend to get redder, culminating in bosses who are a deep, dark red in contrast to the Trolls' signature green.
Had to build these with mostly "off-the-shelf" costume pieces, as there wasn't a ton of time to make them, but I think they worked out pretty well in the end.

All the Destroyers had a fun "Mad Max" / "Fist of the North Star" vibe, from the Big Dogs and Blast Masters right down to the Mohawk-sporting Rocket Girls. For some reason, I especially liked the orange-skinned female Shredders in the urban camo...

They look good unfortunally I never got a good look at them to see the uniqe tattoes, to busy surviving. I like the backstory of them as tol by White as well.

They've definitely got history with him.

I'll be the first to admit I'm not fond of the Destroyers.
Oh, not on a looks or concept regard. They fit in well in the place. No, it's just the actual mobs. The overpowered bosses and the screwed up female mobs. I hate it when the game expects my character to shrug off rockets but be harmed by thrown rocks. Not boulders. Fist-sized rocks. Further, exactly how is my lvl 1 character just ignoring being shot at with rocket launchers? That shouldn't happen until well into the 30s, and is my main gripe with the 5th Column.

I just draws 'em, I'm afraid. You'll have to take up the powers choices with the Designers.

Hah. Hey, I am an equal-opportunity complainer.
And hey, good work. The Destroyers are a good show that you don't need special assets to make a group look good.

Indeed, though they definitely became one of the more nightmarish groups to fight for their levelband.

That's just the mez-immune, defense-equipped, high-regen, high-damage bosses.
