Well, Ghost Rider rode on to victory in his little match-up, but now we have a much more...intruiging mismatch. This is the quitessential Speed vs. Power throw down.
And away we go. Please see this thread: http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/showt...&threadid=85613 for background and rules. This is basically a poof battle. All participants have what they normally carry with them. Please remember that the setting may have a huge effect on the outcome. The standard 10 second KO counts, and a 20 vote blowout ends the match.
Here are the current matchups:
Round One:
Shaman vs. Ghost Rider in the Dark Dimension
Thialfi vs. Gilgamesh in the Equatorial Jungle
Juggernaut vs. Ares
Athena vs. Nightmare
Sersi vs. Wendigo
Balder vs. Ikaris
Sobek vs. Thena
Clea vs. Thor
Hercules vs. Loki
Leir vs. D'sparye
Tundra vs. Makkari
Horus vs. Doctor Strange
Dagda vs. Anubis
Sphinx vs. Cernunnos
Sif vs. Hades
Snowbird vs. Mephisto
Chthon vs. Morrigan/Nemain
Zarathos vs. Caber
Sattanish vs. Seth
Round Two:
Ghost Rider vs. ???
Fight Two:
THIALFI: A young lad brought to Asgard after his parents were killed by Vikings, Thialfi has become a "psuedo-Asgardian" and a messenger for the realm. He has Superspeed (Think roughly Flash level) and is considered an accomplished fighter. As a sort of Asgaradian, he is tougher and stronger than a normal human, but not to the level of a true asgardian. He is however in excellent physical condition and should be considered to have almost superhuman strength as well as very limited damage resistance.
GILGAMESH: Eternal whose true name is not known. Over the centuries he has been mistaken for Samson, Beowulf, Gilgamesh, Hercules & Atlas. He also learnt to rope from Buffalo Bill Cody, fought alongside Achilles in the Trojan War, fought with King David in Judah, and helped Aeneas following the Trojan War. He was also responsible for cleaning the Augean Stables, rather than Hercules. At some point he did befriend the Interloper, but otherwise, has been mostly solitary. In the identity of Gilgamesh, he became King of Uruk, and befriended Enkidu, a hairy wild man he once faced in combat. But after Enkidu was slain, he became obsessed with his own mortality, and sought the secret of eternal life, apparently unaware that he was immortal. During his adventures, he also fought the Kronans and an enormous snake. At some point, Zuras banished the Forgotten One to a corner of Olympia and stripped him of his name, forbidding anyone to speak with him. The Forgotten One also went blind, and it is not known when or how he ultimately restored his vision. He has the powers of Cosmic Energy Manipulation, but not as developed as other Eternals. This energy can be used for eyeblasts at roughly half the power of his strength, it allows him to fly at Mach Speeds and can be used to replenish his endurance if he somehow managed to task his Superhuman Stamina. He is comfortably in the Class 100 range on Strength, he has Superhuman Stamina and like all Eternals, unless you basically vaporise 75% of his body in one shot, he'll come back from it. He in functionally invulnerable to cold, disease, electricity, heat, radiation, and toxins. Add in his centuries of training and this guy is a freaking monster.
Setting: Equatorial Jungle - a gigantic ziggurat dominates the center of the arena, and can be seen even from the farthest edges. Soaring trees, frequent monsoons and lightning storms, a raging river cuts through one half. The temple is full of pit falls and traps but contains an artifact that enhances a bearer in some way (Functions as the +20% boost a god gets on his home terrain).
