Want to contribute to the Paragon Wiki but don't know where to start?  One good place to start is by editing articles that are designed as [[Special:Whatlinkshere&target=Template%3AStub|Stub]] articles and [[Special:Whatlinkshere&target=Template%3AWip|Work in Progress]] articles.  These articles need anything from minor tweaks to major overhauls, and anything you have to add would be appreciated!
 
If you want to dive into writing some highly needed articles from scratch, check out the list of [[Special:Wantedpages|Wanted Pages]].  These are pages that are linked to from other pages but that have no articles associated with them.  They are sorted by the number of links that point to them, so by filling in the articles towards the top of the list, you will be giving the most bang for your temporal buck.

Welcome to the official Rebirth Rebirth Wiki, the comprehensive reference written and maintained by the players.

Celebrate the return of City of Heroes!

Mecha beam rifle.png

City of Heroes is back and it showed us one important thing.

Seems not everything is remembered with rose tinted glasses, older games can be just as fun if not better than what you actually remembered. Value those memories but also relish the fact that you can finally, not only relive those memories; but also create new ones with your friends and loved ones in City of Heroes. The game lives today thanks to the brave leakers and self-less coders who worked day and night (for free) to bring you the possibilities you have at hand today. Don't let their efforts go to waste, what are you waiting for? Hop on your favorite AT and start playing today!
