Choose Your Meta Mentor in ‘DC Universe Online’ [Video]

The producers of DC Universe Online have released a new video that reveals the first missions for players who choose to create metahuman characters -- which is to say, characters with biological superpowers. Depending on whether you're good or evil, you'll be assigned a mentor in the form of Superman or Lex Luthor. The former asks you to go to Metropolis to help out The Flash, while the latter sends you to procure a piece of Power Girl's DNA (gross).As explained by DCUO creative director Jens Andersen, success down either path will build your reputation as a respective hero or villain. Saving the Flash and stopping Grodd will earn Superman's trust, while achieving Luthor's villainous ends will make you an asset to his criminal plans.
