Battle Royale - Monsters Round 1

1) The Lord of Darkness VS. 16) Vincent; The Beast



The Lord of Darkness – Legend
This mystical creature is about as close as this tournament gets to Lucifer himself. Like most in this competition, this mammoth beast has the necessary super-strength and super-toughness. However, this creature has mystical defenses, making it impossible to kill him with a weapon not imbued with magical properties. Light is the only thing that this demon shies away from. Most impressive in this competition is his magical prowess. He commands dark magic that is designed to instill complete and utter despair in his enemies. He is also capable of casting a spell of hypnosis upon his enemies, leaving them in a trance-like state and even turning them into unwitting allies that he can use and abuse at his discretion. Without a doubt his mother named him appropriately. - Cyberman

Vincent – Beauty and the Beast
Certain as the sun rising in the east, No one wants to face Vincent, because he is a beast. This frightening looking competitor brings a ferocity that is little matched among those in this tournament. His dual nature causes him to recite poetry to loved ones, but also unleash a primal fury on his enemies. His strength and reflexes are greater than that of a human, and his heightened senses allow him to see in the dark and hear things that others would not. Don’t let the glam rock hairdo fool you; Vincent is a formidable match-up. - Dagromm

8) Sil VS. 9) Edgar



Sil – Species
Strong, sinister, and sexy!!! Like most women, Sil is programmed to procreate and destroy men’s lives. She quickly changes from stunning beauty to terrifying hell beast when ever a man doesn’t live up to her lofty expectations (man, I’ve been married too long). Her physical strength is on par with any on this list. Enough so that she can smash out the back of a man’s skull with her tongue alone. Sil also has good speed, and quick healing. Add to that the ability to disguise herself in a moments notice and you’ll never know when it’s coming. You just know it’ll look good when it gets there. - Dagromm

Edgar – Men in Black
A twelve foot cockroach with a bad attitude, this rogue space-bug wreaked havoc on earth while attempting to track down the Galaxy on Orion’s belt. Edgar is super-strong and super fast, making him capable of advancing on his opponents, lifting them effortlessly, and devouring them whole in mere seconds. With his thick exoskeleton, Edgar is difficult to wound but he is even more difficult to hit. He is tremendously agile as evidenced by his quick get-away from the New York morgue. Finally, Edgar has the unique ability to camouflage his appearance, by literally wearing the skin of his victims. This technique allows him to gain the element of surprise on his enemies. Don’t think that Edgar will not use this tactic to his advantage when facing his opponents in the competition. - Cyberman

5) The Indescribable Monster VS. 12) Shelob



The Indescribable Monster – Krull
A creature of immense power, this ruler of the slayer armies has conquered hundreds of planets. It has mastery over the mystical realm and can subject its victims to all forms of magical bombardment. It also holds sway over a mighty army of alien warriors who fight with the strength of super-men. Finally, this monster is able to shoot lightning beams and is invulnerable to all weapons save the enchanted “Glaive”. Top it off with the requisite super-strength, super-toughness, and super-ugliness, The Indescribable Monster need not bare any further description. - Cyberman

Shelob – The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
This ancient evil has lived for thousands of years. She is a mammoth bloated creature with a wrinkly thick hide so tough that she bares no weak-spots. Her powerful pincers and her venom soaked stinger are a deadly combination. She gives off a horrific stench that helps casts an imposing visage on even the most stalwart of warriors. Despite her massive frame she is unimaginably agile. Using her surroundings to her advantage she will lay webbed traps for her enemy, thereby taking advantage of their immobility. Shelob was such an unstoppable force that Lord Sauron felt no need to protect a secret entrance into his lands. He knew Shelob would take care of any foe that crossed her path. - Cyberman

4) Gozer VS. 13) The Fly



Gozer the Gozarian – Ghostbusters
Also known as The Destructor, Volguus Zildrohar, and the Traveller, this Summarian Devil God wields all the power of the paranormal universe. Gozer the Traveller will come in one of the pre-chosen forms before offering a final mercy of choice and her gift of destruction. In each of Gozer’s encounters it allows its victim to choose the form that Gozer will take, thereby capitalizing on the very deepest and darkest fears of the target. With lightning speed, super strength, complete invulnerability to all physical attacks, and the ability to discharge metaphysical bursts from its very fingertips, Gozer is the embodiment of all that is evil and corrupt in the known universe. So choose. Choose and perish! - Cyberman

The Fly – The Fly
There’s plenty of bad attitude under the gruesome exterior of this freak. With reckless abandon the Fly will toss about his opponent then break them down with his acidic vomit. He will attack without cause and fears no one. Indeed there is no reasoning with this beast that has forsaken all of humanity. - Dagromm

3) The Mummy VS. 14) Captain Barbossa



The Mummy – The Mummy
His friends call him Imhotep, but you may call him the Mummy. After 36 centuries of death, this denizen of the underworld is looking to party. And that means bringing death to the free world and ruling as a tyrannical dictator. His powers rival those of any in this tournament, with the ability to turn to dust, raise minions of the dead, and call up sandstorms and swarms of insects. Good luck to any who face this Egyptian terror. - Dagromm

Captain Barbossa – The Pirates of the Caribbean
Pity those who would face off with the accursed traitorous captain of the Black Pearl. He has a reputation for moving in quickly and leaving no survivors in his wake. With wit and wile he will outmaneuver his opponent, but this man of the sea is not averse to using the cutlass if it comes to that as well. Beyond that, the cursed Aztec gold that gives him his insatiable blood lust also gives him an immortal un-life and the inability to feel pain. So don’t bother asking for mercy from Captain Barbossa, because he is disinclined to acquiesce (means no). - Dagromm

6) Dracula VS. 11) Medusa



Count Dracula – Dracula
The poster boy for all vampires, Count Dracula represents all that is malevolent, imposing, and deadly in these mystical creatures. Quite possibly one of the oldest combatants in this competition, Dracula’s resume speaks for itself. He is an immortal beast incapable of being killed. He is able to turn himself into a bat, a wolf, or even a gossamer mist. He is stronger than any human being and can hypnotize with his very gaze. His intellect is vast, having spent thousands of years pouring over mankind’s literature, history, and science. He is as cruel as he is intelligent, living off the life-blood of his victims. Not to mention he has a swank harem of hot vampire brides. - Cyberman

Medusa – Clash of the Titans
This legendary beast is a grotesque monstrosity of the highest order. Her appearance is so horrific that to look upon her turns any creature into stone. This and this alone gives the Medusa a tremendous advantage in combat. Combining this incredible power with a mastery of the bow and arrow, she is able to pick off her targets from long distance while they scramble in disarray for fear of being literally petrified. Her serpentine body is surprisingly fast and she is able to cross vast distances fairly quickly, making it very easy for her to charge an enemy that is pinned down. Even in death she is a force to be reckoned with as evidenced by the unstoppable Kraken sea-creature fleeing from her visage. - Cyberman

7) The Predator VS. 10) Micheal Corvin



The Predator – Predator
The Predator is exceedingly powerful, deceptively quick, and highly pain resistant. More impressive is the Predator’s advanced technology. Equipped with camouflage armor, he is virtually invisible to the naked eye. His bio helmet allows him to filter his vision through the full scope of the visible and invisible light spectrum. His high-tech body armor provides added protection against all manner of weapon and acid attack. His Plasma Caster is capable of firing energy bursts with tremendous destructive power. His Smart Disc is a razor sharp boomerang that will slice through anything before returning effortlessly to the Predator. Finally the Predator’s Combi-Spear is a telescoping weapon capable of penetrating any hide or armour. While the Predator has even more weapons and equipment than this in his arsenal this is certainly all he needs to be victorious in this tournament. - Cyberman

Michael Corvin – Underworld
Part vampire and part werewolf, this creature fulfills an age old prophecy that was believed only to be legend. With the powers of both species and the weaknesses of neither, this hybrid abomination is faster, stronger, more durable, and more deadly than any vampire or werewolf that has ever lived. With the invulnerability of a vampire, Corvin can withstand all manner of physical attack. With the senses of a werewolf he is able to predict the actions of his attackers well before they are completed. With the combined strength of both he can deal devastating damage at lightning speed. His abilities are so incredible that it defies all logic, but then again, his very being defies all logic. - Cyberman

2) Alien Queen VS. 15) Caesar



Alien Queen – Aliens
Known only as “Aliens”, she is the queen of the most dangerous and deadly species in the entire galaxy. This monstrous beast possesses all the same skills that her drone underlings possess. She is a delicate and agile creature, capable of staying hidden from enemies until she is only inches from them. Her strength is so great she is able to overpower a ten ton fork lift and burst through reinforced steal bulk-heads. She possesses razor sharp claws and a spear-like tail that can fillet a victim so quickly that they still have time to realize they are dead before they actually die. Most notorious are the alien’s unique biological traits of a dual maw and acid blood. With literally a mouth inside a mouth, this secondary set of choppers gives the Queen that extra reach for quick and easy flesh rending. Finally the acid blood makes any damage done to the Queen an exercise in danger for the opponent dealing the damage. All in all, few combatants bring to bare such a deadly array of qualities. - Cyberman

Caesar – Planet of the Apes
This dirty ape fights…well…dirty. Caesar is a tough competitor for whoever has to face him. He has the strength of the mightiest primates, the mind of a world leader and reflexes and agility honed from performing acrobatic feats on horseback in a circus since infancy. His impressive resume includes igniting a rebellion that led to the eventual enslavement of mankind. This is not the kind of foe that you want to take lightly. - Dagromm
