    I see Trendy's Laughter also brought Smirk to the deck. At least no Undine this time.

    We need a Dev fun time. Smirk and Trendy in deliberately OP ships in place of a regular Red Alert. With Trendy able to summon Undine every 5 minutes. If we can beat them before time's up (after countless respawns), we get one day of XP boost or Mark Boost or some other boost.

    Trendy BOff! First GOLD quality BOff in Star Trek Online!

    I LOVE IT!

    Except her uniform can't be customized and she spends most of the time in the Dyson Sphere Battlezone running into a wall.

    And she uses Photonic Banhammer III on unshielded Ensigns instead of prioritizing the mechasuits and other shielded enemies.

    Eh, it'll never happen. It'd be way too overpowered.

    Does anyone want to see my bookmarks in my browsers?

    But you are about to enter another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land of imagination. Next stop, the organicmanfred Zone!

    Kids, close your eyes. Trendy, you better stay here where it is safe, I don't want you to see those things.



    :P:D

    I'm thinking of 4 traits for a Trendy Command Bridge Officer.

    Teamwork (for working with PWE)

    Superior Pacify (to break aggro on her)

    Superior Stasis Specialist (for bans)

    Impatient (for publishing dev blogs too early)

    She should be an Epic level BOFF, so those should all be Superior.

    Posting a fun non-serious one; serious version would tone most of those down to more realistic limits. Still would be Epic rarity.

    EDIT: As it seems there's no other entrants, I'll go ahead and post a serious version. Some things balanced down.

    Mk ∞+ (Mark Infinity Plus) = Means the item fully scales (unlike regular Mk ∞ which only scales to between XI and XII) and is equivalent to armor of the appropriate Rarity.

    Mk ∞+1 (Mark Infinity Plus 1) = Means the item fully scales to one mark above equivalent armor of the appropriate Rarity

    Laughing Trendy - Fun Version

    Default Equipment:
    Epic Energized Leek Mk ∞+1 - Hardlight "sword" and beam-emitting "wand". Does LEEK Damage. Guaranteed Criticals. Cannot be unequipped. Scaled above the player's equipment level by 1 Mark (or 5 levels). In other words, if the player is level 60, this is scaled to 65, or Mk XV Epic.

    Epic Mod Armor Mk ∞+ - Immune to all status Debuffs, Expose, Slow, Holds, and Placate. Grants Superhuman Strength (major boost to Physical/Melee damage) and Speed. Cannot be unequipped. Scales to the player's equipment level (if the player is level 60, this scales to Mk XIV Epic).

    Epic Mod Shield Mk ∞+ - 100% chance of delivering a Psionic counter-attack for each incoming attack and double shield Regen rate. Cannot be unequipped. Scales to the player's equipment level (if the player is level 60, this scales to Mk XIV Epic).

    Devices:
    Epic Leek Tribble - Instantly restores all health and shields and grants a temporary doubling of HP and Shield capacity. Usable every 120 seconds. Cannot be unequipped.


    Traits:
    Superior Management - Ground/Space (Efficient, Leadership, Teamwork, Veteran)
    Superior Moderation - Ground (Logical, Nerve Pinch, Mind Meld, Stasis Specialist)
    Superior Patience - Ground (Pacification, Pacifist, Resilient, Mental Discipline)
    Superior Eagerness - Space (Impatient, Operative, Infiltrator (she appears when you least expect it), Pirate (her flag is 2 crossed Leeks))

    Ground Abilities:
    Photonic Banhammer Rank III - Creates a massive banhammer with the Leek becoming part of the handle and smashes it hard into the enemy. Guaranteed KO to the target, and guaranteed knockback and fall to all enemies within a 5 meter radius.

    Motion Accelerator Rank III - In order to get in and deliver the Banhammer. Also increases Dodge and Evasion rate.

    Mod Stasis Hold - Mod version of Stasis Hold. Holds the target until the user decides to free the held target. Regardless, target remains vulnerable to other attacks while held.

    Friendly Inspiration - Heals all allies by 100% and temporarily boosts damage and defense by 25%.

    Ah, its a 3D Model of somebody from anime. I was trying animating 3D models for Unity. I couldn't find any good human models or things like that for free, and I don't know anything about 3D modeling.
