Back in October, City of Heroes gamers got a treat in the form of three arcs created by high-profile creative minds. The Guest Author agenda used the Mission Architect system and gave gamers the enjoyment of working through missions scripted by authors known outside of the realm of Paragon City. We haven't heard much about the agenda since then, and so it might have seemed as if the feature had been forgotten, but it turns out it was simply in brief hibernation, as the official site has announced the next group of writers.

Mercedes Lackey (known for her series of fantasy novels set in Valdemar), Troy Hickman (known for the meta-superhero series Common Grounds), and Austin Grossman (longtime writer of video games and author of Soon I Will Be Invincible) make up the next batch of guest writers crafting their own arcs in City of Heroes. Two of the arcs should be live today (assuming you're reading this on January 26th), according to ashortsupplementary piece which includes a few words from Sean McCann. It's good to see the game continuing to emphasize and enhance the experience of user-created substence, and gamers should look forward to some high-profile names continuing to take their swing at it.
