The Royal Canadian Rando Tourney Nominations!

[Excal]

Having finally escaped from the top secret Maple Syrup Mines, it's time to getting back to running Rando Tourneys.

As such, we're gonna have a large event with the standard rules applying.

There's gonna be 128 folks going in, where they're gonna get stuck facing single, pair, and team events until only one of them survives!  Because there's gonna be a lot of spaces, we'll need a lot of noms, so feel free to pick twelve of your favourite people.  Or perhaps just the first twelve people your mental darts hit, cause random.  Like always, the only rule is that they have to be a fictional character, for a given quantity of fictional since sufficient pop-cultural mutation will get a person in.  (if he can win the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny, then Mr. Rogers can certainly show up here)

So, with all that said, the events are ready!  All we need now are the peons to dance and strive and struggle for our amusement!

I don't have any noms, but I have to formally request that there's an event involving Top Secret Maple Syrup Mines.

[DragonKnight Zero]

Time to send in some scrubs.

Akuma (Street Fighter series)  Shun goku satsu
Relm Arrowny (FF6)  Hilarious character
Inspector Gadget: just because
Big Joe (Xenogears): Great and dynamic and might actually win at something here.
Augst (Wild Arms 4): The perpetually boned.  A Castlevania skeleton probably knocks him out in one shot.
Jade (BoF1): BoltX is his solution to everything.  Which will probably cause him to lose the first round.
Ruby (Lunar2): Flying cats-that-are-really-dragons are awesome.
Slimer (Ghostbusters cartoon)  Because RANDOM
Marisa Kirisame (Touhou): One of my current favorite fictional characters.  I am not a normal human being.
Pokey (Mario series): Move faster
Mia Thermopolis (Princess Diaries) Will likely suffer a mental breakdown.  I am so cruel.
Ryu (unspecified) Excal's choice.  Or voter's choice for max insanity.  Either way will be fun.

[DjinnAndTonic]

Arcanine (Pokemon) likely to lose some match for not having opposable thumbs.
Millennia (grandia 2) has the tools to go far!
Goto (mana khemia 2) I'd like to see him fail a lot more
Hello Kitty - this cat has no mouth
Zelda - if getting kidnapped is an event, she's not easily outdone
Bowser - wins the Being Bowser event
Blue Mage (any) - copycat powers might be interesting
Rita Mordio (tales of  Vesperia) blah blah blah genius mage
Aegil (Rondo of Swords) nobody can vote on her except those that can and know she's awesome

How do you even know what this is? I grew up in the states and only barely know what this is.

[Hunter Sopko]

Roxanne "Roxy" Pelligrini (Jem & The Holograms)

How do you even know what this is?

This is possibly the dumbest question I've ever heard you ask, Djinn.

[SnowFire]

Today's theme: fragile things.

Edward (Final Fantasy 4)
Dahlia Hawthorne (Phoenix Wright)
Orc Peon (WarCraft)
Hope (the Platonic concept, not the FF13 character.  although the FF13 character is a good fallback if this is too weird.)
Julius Caesar (Shakespeare version) - Fragile to daggers, possibly buds with Gandhi above.
Princess Elodie (Long Live The Queen) - Okay, slightly obscure, and also somewhat open-ended in abilities (varies by game), but watching this video should really tell 90% of what you need to know to vote her.
Rinoa Heartily (Final Fantasy 8)
Fox Mulder (The X-Files) - Fragile grasp on reality?
Ichabod Crane - Formchoice presumably allowed between "cowardly school-teacher" and "time-travelling paranormal investigator who'd be buddies with Agent Mulder."
Koopa troopa (Mario series)
Mordin Solus (Mass Effect 2)
Ryogoui Shiki (Kara no Kyoukai) - Okay not actually fragile, but crazy, so close enough.

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

Roxanne "Roxy" Pelligrini (Jem & The Holograms)

How do you even know what this is?

This is possibly the dumbest question I've ever heard you ask, Djinn.

Indeed.

7. Reiji (Gundam Build Fighters) Will pilot the hell out of a tiny robot.
8. YHWACH (Bleach) Is Captain Planet and Jesus COMBINED.
9. Lucy Lawless (The Simpsons) Xena can't fly, but Lucy Lawless sure can!
10. Murky (Heroes of the Storm) YOU CAN'T STOP HIM EVER!
11. Sergeant Major Merrik (Dawn of War 2) A real man's man.
12. Shawn Spencer (PSYCH) Is he psychic?  Is he not?  Either way, he certainly fits in here!

[DjinnAndTonic]

No no. I'm not saying I don't understand that it would appeal to him. I'm just genuinely curious how he would have heard of it. Where did you find out about it?

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

You vastly undersell how indiscriminately your birth country exports its lower echelons of pop culture elsewhere.
