Shadow Shard Reflections

This article is a stub. You can help the Wiki by expanding it.

Overview

Shadow Shard Reflections is a faction in City of Heroes that inhabits the Shadow Shard. They were created by Uuralur the Mirror, who presides over The Garden of Memories. The beings that reside there are reflections of the worlds that Rularuu has consumed, though it is unclear whether he created them out of remorse or amusement. Uuralur has organized many of these reflections into a guard force that patrols the area and keeps the remaining reflections in check.

Reflections do not count toward hunt missions, nor do they count toward badge totals.

Villain Types

Minions

Circle of Thorn Reflections

The Reflections seem to be exact copies of the terrors that exist on other worlds. It is unknown whether these mystics are Reflections of Paragon City's Circle of Thorns, or of the Oranbegans from some other dimension. What is certain is that they fight with the same utter disregard for life that Paragon City's heroes have witnessed many a time.

It fires compact shells that carry a tremendous punch, exploding with the force of a heavy grenade or rocket shell. In the Shadow Shard, these magnificent weapons have been copied exactly, and the Reflections wield them with a skill to rival Nemesis soldiers themselves.
