Not content to merely allow players to create the visual style of a
hero to their liking, Cryptic has gone the extra mile to truly immerse
players in nearly every aspect of what shapes their
character’s overall role in a world threatened by countless
supervillains.
One such means of shaping your hero is the use of Innate Talents, also
known as Characteristics. While you have the option to select a
