>Well, there's always new characters if you haven't hit your cap

There's that, yeah. For instance, since I last played, they've added the 1-20 Klingon content (which means I may well reboot Bob the Gorn), and the Romulan stuff is all new (though, as with the Klingon stuff, I've never been a big fan of playing the bad guys in factionalized computer game worlds, and the TNG-era Romulans are even assholier assholes than STO's "peace is for pussies" Klingons).

In the meantime, I was farting around earlier and decided to reprise one of the DC Universe Online characters I created to mock the game's starting premise.

Invader KYRA
Lieutenant (Tactical), Starfleet
Commanding officer, USS Thraex

Despite the slightly sinister connotations of its English translation, "Invader" is a title of high respect among Kyra's people, bestowed on anyone who leaves the planet to undertake bold adventures among the stars. Sure, it's a relic of their aggressive, expansionistic pre-Federation-contact days, but traditions mean a lot on Kyra's homeworld, and they hardly ever conquer neighboring planets for sport any more. Tell you what, though, they're tough little bastards.

(I'll try and get a better shot of her later, with some kind of scale reference involved. She's set to the minimum height, which - amusingly - is actually short enough to make interacting with standard-height consoles a slight challenge. :)
