New Nyarlathotep's Dungeon - Nominations and Ideas

[Nephrite]

It's time I finally put pen to paper as it were and got this rolling. If there's interest, great. If not, that's fine too.

Here are the rules of the tournament:

Pick 5 characters that have some sort of theme to them, be it:

"5 PCs from the same game"
"5 PCS of the same class/similar classes"
"5 people with similar names"
"True Rune Users"
"People who's names start with Al"
"Mascot characters"

It doesn't have to be something serious or something strong. Any combination will work. Just so long as the five people on the team have some sort of thematic connection, that will work.

Effectively, I will take all the teams and put them against custom challenges and we'll end up seeing which teams function given non-standard and standard fights to go against. Generally speaking, the teams will go up against 4-5 different fights in a week and if they win more than they lose they'll move on to harder things and then perhaps one day Ragu o Ragola. Again.

For the most part, all of the teams in question would be taken as DL Normal, we won't be dealing with any of the interpretation of the old dungeon unless there were very specific circumstances, such as "For these fights, assume the characters are from the earliest stages possible" or something.

You don't have to worry about using the old Dungeon list for this either and there are no points to worry about.

The only rule is that you can't use bosses unless you can come up with a really good theme for them.

EDIT: One final thought, don't worry about balance. Make them as strong or as weak as you want.

Is it for nominations one team per person or?~

Let's go with a variant on an old Bonus Match: Final Fantasy main-ish characters.

Terra (w/ spells learnt below L. 40, & Maduin, Tritoch, Ragnarok, & Sraphim spells - notably this means Cure, Cure2, Life, Life2, Remedy, Dispel, Drain, Element2/Element3 attack spells, & Ultima)
Cloud
Zidane
Tidus (w/ Brotherhood force-equipped)
Lightning

Terra is mostly a push (elemental variety beyond Fire at the cost of Break/Pearl/Qartr), Tidus gets a slight nerf.  Only 2 revivers so shouldn't be THAT broken.  (Squall would be an interesting addition, but probably too swingy, he's either godlike if he gets his limit off or underwhelming.)  If other teams are higher on the power level, can always throw Cloud some non-DL legal materia.

Heroic Hunters:

Elc (AtL2)
Chaz Ashley (PSIV)
Ryudo (Grandia 2)
Ryu Bateson (BoF2)
Jack (Radiate Stories)

The theme is "Main characters whose job is to hunt monsters or otherwise take odd-jobs to make ends meet". Elc, Chaz, and Ryu are all even called 'hunters'. Read is a 'geohound' which is basically the same thing. Jack is a member of theater Vancoor, but this is pretty much his job description too.

Team dynamics aren't too good. Only Chaz can revive (unless you let Jack use items...). Chaz is also the only healer, although Jack can do some MT healing at the cost of VP via commands. Elc isn't really that suited for team combat, although a few of his buffs could help. That said it could be worse. Everyone here except Ryudo is Godlike by themselves... they just don't really fit together that well.

As many as you want. I guess keep it less than 6.

PCs who also have a boss form:

TimeLord (SGF)
Kylin (SGF)
Kanon (WA2)
Nash (L:SSSC)
Jessica (DQ8)
