Welcome to the City of Heroes WikiBook. Note that there isn't much here, but hopefully everyone that visits can help me change that. What is really needed is some guides on [[City Of Heroes/Archetypes|Archetypes]] and [[City Of Heroes/General Help|General Help]], but anything you can contribute is appreciated. --[[User:Mrnoj|Mrnoj]] 00:13, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

'''City of Heroes''' is a [[MMORPG]] set in a comic-book-style universe. In it, players create their own unique hero and then perform deeds to halt or prevent acts either criminal or immoral, usually by force. It has proven to be among the most rapidly-changing [[MMOG]]s to date. The game was shutdown on November 30, [[2012]].

Big thanks to everyone who contributed, biggest thanks of all to Curveball for letting me use his guide to bind. Still missing some [[City Of Heroes/General Help|General guides and primers]], but the site is looking good. '''Keep up the good work everyone!''' --[[User:Mrnoj|Mrnoj]] 19:09, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)
==Story==
The universe of City of Heroes is centered around present-day Paragon City, one that, through coincidence and happenstance, has grown into the central hub for heroism and villainy in the world. Paragon City is confirmed to be on the coast of the U.S. state of Rhode Island, although there is no immediately obvious evidence of this within the game.


In addition, everyone have fun with Issue #4, now released on the Test Server!
To accommodate a wide range of heroic styles from comic-book culture, there are a few major changes from the world we live in. Everyday technology is roughly the same, while the technology that heroes typically encounter is the stuff of science fiction. The existence of magic is not denied by anyone, as indeed, many heroes and villains use it as their primary source of power. Martial arts techniques are potentially so deadly that someone can, with enough talent, take down any modern weaponry or machinery with their bare hands. Mishaps or processes regarding radiation, chemicals, and other things relating to science are very common ways to obtain super-human ability. Additionally, some people are super-human by virtue of extreme genetic mutation, akin to Marvel's "X-Men" franchise.
