FCN News Bulletin: Defiance Data Fashionista Fun!

Belle Starr: Starr Gazers, Frontier Corporation News and I, Belle Starr, your humble correspondent, are pleased to bring you, our loyal viewers, a special news bulletin that has nothing to do with killing anything! Instead, we are focusing on something near and dear to my heart: OUTFITS! Defiance Data, the go-to people for information as to where, when, and how on anything you might want to do or know about in the Bay Area, are sponsoring an outfit designing competition, and over 200 ark hunters, including yours truly, have submissions! Imagine that! I thought I was the only one that cared that much how I looked while adventuring in Paradise!

Lady Christianna: Obsessed, maybe?

Belle Starr: Perhaps! That was my protégé cub reporter, Lady Christianna who has no fashion sense at all! Give her a basic black outfit and she is perfectly happy!

Lady Christianna: Goth. Classic.



Belle Starr: As I said, no fashion sense as all! What does that outfit say? I’m an ark hunter who looks like every other ark hunter, except in black? You could just be a black soldier in fatigues among another dozen black soldiers in fatigues for what’s that worth!

Lady Christianna: Shatko.



Belle Starr: No, if you are going to become iconic in the Bay Area, like me, you have to pick an outfit that stands out from the crowd! Early on in my career, I picked out my Liberty Trooper Armor outfit, so that when my friends saw me writhing on the floor of War Master, they could say, “Hey, that’s Belle Starr!” and come over and revive me! Saved me a lot of scrip in my low level EGO early days, believe me!

Lady Christianna: Red, white, and blue pulp fiction.



Belle Starr: When I’m working for FCN and covering the special events around the Bay Area, it’s handy to have the Rebel Reporter outfit in my closet to slip into, because I am, as y’all know, both a reporter and a rebel! That way when other ark hunters see me, they won’t shoot me in PVP, although it didn’t work out that way in the community shadow wars! Died a lot!

Lady Christianna: With a rebel yell!



Belle Starr: Now that I’m a news anchor and a respected member of the Defiance community as an EGO Level 6000 veteran, I have to have an outfit that says, “Hey, look at me, I’m dignified as well as beautiful!” Stop snickering, Lady! Anywho, for that the Emerald Warrior outfit makes a wonderful fashion statement!

Lady Chrisianna: Green goddess.



Belle Starr: Absolutely! Anyway, although I usually don’t believe in wearing head gear of any kind, for who wants their blond tousled head to have helmet hair, sometimes goggles or the perfect hat just makes the look! For example, one of the outfits I designed for the contest, the Angel Knight, took the basic CODA knight outfit and combined it with a halo to “create” something unique – easy peasy! And wasn’t I clever with the name!

Lady Christianna: Awesome.

Belle Starr: Are you being sincere? Never mind, I don’t want to know! Anyway, there are a lot of great outfits out there that with a different head gear can look even greater, and give the ark hunter the unique look he or she should crave to stand out in the crowd during an ark fall, incursion, siege, or even an expedition! It is better to look good then to be good is my motto!

Lady Christianna: Incredible.



Belle Starr: Take the Bubblegum Killer outfit! Not bad looking by itself, but add the Colonel’s hat and ipso facto, it becomes as fashion statement that says, yes, I’m feminine, but I can still whip all the dangerous critters and two legged varmints in Paradise! Suddenly you ARE the Pink Avenger! The outfit designer at the Defiance Data website let me do just that for the Defiance Data Outfit Competition they are sponsoring!

Lady Christianna: Pretty in pink!

Belle Starr: You got that right! Anyway Starr-gazers, get in on the fun, but do it soon, as the competition ends on the thirty first, so not much time! You might win a sustained suppression weapons crate just for voting! The top three outfit designers win not only the outfit they designed, but the ones the other two designed! Too cool! So when you vote, THINK PINK!... As in Pink Avenger… Get it?

Lady Christianna: Say Good night Belle.

Belle Starr: Good night Belle! Hey, I didn’t hear any ringing! * giggle *
