Champions Online nemesis
Official box art for the game

There's a reason why Champions Online gives you the opportunity to create your own nemesis.  One is because Cryptic Studios is well-known for customization and another is because you need a nemesis if you're a hero.

In a three part feature at the Champions Online website, The Genesis of Nemesis will be revealed.  Right now, here's what Lead Designer Randy Mosiondz has to say about the origin of creating your own nemesis.

Based on our goal of making player created enemies, we took the player character creator and tweaked it for use as a Nemesis creator. And what is a villain without minions to help carry out their evil plans and thwart heroes at every turn? So we came up with a system of minion powers and costumes for players to select to complement their Nemesis. Finally, we began working in plotlines for Nemesis that would crop up from time to time in the game.

Sound like something that draws your interest?  Apply for the beta and find out what your nemesis could be.  And don't forget to watch the nemesis trailer here.

CO is scheduled to release September 1, 2009 with a console release sometime later this year.
