Dark Force vs Indalecio
SageAcrin An insane weapon of mass destruction. A manifestation of pure evil. In a contest to see who could produce the greatest evil. Dark Force produced a twisted tentacle-laden hellspawn with fangs, claws and a tendancy to eat small towns. Indalecio used his extensive genetic engineering knowledge to produce a genetic splicing of Roger Bacon, Tifa, Draggy and Lilina and specified that the resulting spawn be a young girl. The winner is pretty obvious. Dark Force: 22 
Vigoro vs Choko
Cmdr_King When people read there was a match between Vigoro and a recognizably humanoid female, well, they assumed some things. Shockingly, Vigoro was pretty annoyed about it. Yes, he was leacherous. Yes, he chased after Aika with a singlemindedness seldom seen. Yes, he confronted her in a jail cell, desperately... Anyway, for all his faults, Vigoro set out to prove that, dammit, he had standards! Well, sometimes. Occasionally. As long as he wasn't drunk... or lonely... or... At any rate, Vigoro set out to show that, yes, there were some lines he wouldn't cross, and hitting on an (apparent) little girl like Choko was one of them. Of course, while distracted by all this, it was, as she so eloquently pointed out, Choko's Turn. Things didn't really go at all as planned. See, sitting there and taking a beating from Choko while wearing your finest piratical fishnet stockings sends some messages... Suffice to say Vigoro won't be having a pleasant week. Vigoro: 24 
Deis vs Deamoned
LegendaryCountryBoy Deis has one problem: Deamond's Absolute Defense needs to be pierced by combos, and she can't do that. She'll end up trash, since his absolute defense requires no MP or anything, and when Deis has DefDown... Deis: 31 
Ryu vs Yuna
superaielman A summoning war. Ryu brings a one use only, tactical nuclear bomb. Yuna brings an entire army. Which happens to be exceptionally good at absorbing punishment. Ryu brings a shiny sword after his one attack! Yuna brings another creature. Run Ryu, run! Ryu: 35 dark_yamiyugi
T260G vs Hallec
Meeplelard An Axe to the face can go a long way, as we've learned. Two axes should obviously go twice as far, by that logic? Well, maybe they do, unfortunatly, robots that have enough power to blow up small space stations, that is equipped with a weapon that might as well just be considered a Light Saber, and can hurt things by ramming into it 7 times in a row go somewhat further. T260G: 46 
Lundgren vs Pesmerga
Grefter Pesmerga never stood a chance. Right at this moment he is in the ICU while they try to get a doctor that cares enough to try and stabalise him. It wasn't smack in the mouth that did him in. Nor was it the savage beating with Lundgren's cane. No, it was from the swarm of hookerbots trampling him after the match was over as they swarmed to Lundgren when the match was over. Never mess with a pimp unless you are sure you will win. Lundgren: 43 Lyndis
Freya Crescent vs Garai
Tide Spears > Swords? Maybe in Fire Emblem. However even then, Garai weilds not one, but TWO swords. And two is always better than one. The lesson here is to walk softly but carry a large weaponry store on your back. Or something like that. Freya Crescent: 47 
Ayla vs Artea
Cmdr_King As it turns out, 65 Million years ago, Man and Elf got along far better than they do now, indeed having the best race relations seen in any RPG realm. As such, Alya suggested a simple arm-wrestling match to determine the winner rather than a brutal fight to the death. Artea agreed. Of course, this was actually more of a ruse, since he promptly blasted the cave woman with a well placed Zap spell. Having lost, Ayla went back to her own time. Bearing a rather understandable grudge against elven kind, she promptly ordered all elves banished from human villages, beginning an unprecidented age of bigotry and persecution. And thus the historic hatred of Elves towards basically everyone else began. Ayla: 38
Anastasia Romanov vs Shion Uzuki
Cmdr_King Anastasia really did her research for this match. She spent hours going over Shion's past matches, got relatively exclusive video footage of her training with KOS-MOS, and even arranged an interview with her colleage MOMO. All of which, while fun and frilly in a tea party sort of way, weren't as effective as she had hoped. And so the plucky young Romanov decided to sneak into Vector's labratories on Second Miltia and get some direct evidence of Shion's talents. It was here she saw KOS-MOS testing out her infamous X-Buster technique. It was just too good an opportunity to ignore; she pulled out her camera, took careful aim, and... snapped. Giddy enough that she actually forgot what she had come for, Anastasia left. By the time of the match, Anastasia was more than confident. Her Snapshot of KOS-MOS had been successful beyond her wildest dreams in practice, and even Kurando couldn't stand long against it (this, incidentally, marked the first time Kurando actually said no to Anastasia; being smacked by KOS over and over was just too much.) And so, the match began, and eager as ever, Anastasia immediately unleashed her secret weapon. Unfortunately for her, she lacked some critical information. First, in Shion's time robotics had advanced to a point where, even if copied, it wouldn't betray its original programming. Second, KOS-MOS would, of course, never attack Shion. Probably. At any rate, Snapshot KOS certainly didn't. Instead, she appeared, assessed the situation, and promptly X-Bustered Anastasia into unconciousness. Since there aren't really any rules against a dueller taking out themselves, Shion won the match. In unrelated news, Anastasia and Kurando made up rather promptly after that. It seems shared pain really does strengthen a relationship. Anastasia Romanov: 33 Lyndis
Watari vs Gafgarion, Gaff
SageAcrin "...What are you doing here, Watari!?" Edge said, staring at Watari at a bar table, stunned. "Having a drink." Watari said, shrugging. "...Your match started two minutes ago." Edge said patiently. "Oh, that." He said, knocking back a shot. "...well?" "I decided not to fight." "...You decided not to fight!? What about ninja honor and your pride? What about winning and mocking Zida-wait, that's my values." Edge said, shaking his head. "What about hating to lose?" "Simple. Stupidity both won and lost this day. A bunch of stupid judges decided to try the swimsuit contest again. Except Piastol heard about it and hired about five dozen guards for each of them. Day and night." Watari waved at a waitress for another round for both himself and Edge. "I figured, it was best to get out while I was ahead and not being made to wear a swimsuit, or being forced to drag dozens of sleeping guards into a hallway just to knock someone out. Not worth it." He said, accepting his drink. "...But what about your pride? I thought you hated losing to idiot." Edge said, frowning. "Oh, that. Well, I think I can hear the answer to that coming." Watari stood up, and calmly opened a door outside. As a few hundred knights, mounted on Chocobo, rode by. "I tipped off Gafgarion." Watari said, a satisfied note entering his voice. "He may well be the only person who'd be less happy to be humiliated like that than I am. He died rich; Doubleagent mercenaries generally do." A note of disgust entered Watari's voice at the thought of selling out a client, but he continued. "Death isn't a big problem here, and he has connections to some pretty big name people. I figure he'll take care of this problem." "..." Edge said, staring after the birds. "I end up with enough money to be set after my run in Light, Gafgarion takes care of the stupid judges, and I unwind. My pride's fine, thanks." Watari said, slightly smiling, as he sipped his drink. "Also, it probably didn't hurt that he hates one of the judges..." --- "Okay! It's time to get to the match." Cait Sith said, his giant moogle hopping out of the room, flanked by a massive cordon of guards. "Hmmm? What? Why are you all stopped?" He asked, puzzled, as a black armored figure approached. "...Gaf...Hey! Get him!" Cait yelled at the guards, who were making way for Gafgarion as he walked up to Cait. "Stupid cat. I bought them off. You may be able to handle me alone, but I will enjoy ordering you beaten to a pulp." Gaff Gafgarion said, chuckling nastily... Watari: 24 
Cleo vs Mog
Grefter Damn, Cleo was really regretting that big night out on the town with Lundgren the night before the match? She should have known her opponent better than that and not made that bet. Oh well, at least Lundgren said he would pay her for the time. Surely whatever it was this Strago character wanted to do with her couldn't be all that bad. Stupidest bet she had ever made though. Cleo: 14 aiondormitoire@aol.com
Strago Magus vs Kraken
Grefter Strago was set for this match. He had years of extensive research into just this kind of opponent and knew exactly how to beat him. This would be the easiest match he had ever had as a duellist. Come match day Strago walked into the Arena and informed Kraken that he was a big fan, but he knew his weakness and just how to exploit it. For his sake and everyone else in the Arena it would be for the best if Kraken just forfeited outright. This happened. It is really quite simple to deduce exactly what the threat was. Ugly old men are the complete antithesis of everything a Tentacle Monster desires. Strago knew this because he has all of Kraken's movies after all. Strago Magus: 49
Forde vs Hrist Valkyrie
Tide Oh psh. I wouldn't be afraid of Hrist if I was a piece of lint. Forde is a cavalier wearing red armor and carries a sword and a spear, which last I checked, is more threatening than a piece of lint. For him, this match is simply a bye to the next round. For Hrist, this match is similar to playing "Pin-the-tail on the Donkey". Only the donkey moves. And by the time she manages to hit it, it would've hit kicked her in the face 10 times over. Forde: 59 Lyndis
hooah
Edward Damcyan vs Gorudo
Grefter Edward has two wins now. Do you know what this means? The time is coming. The alignment will soon be perfect. Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn. N'gai, n'gha'ghaa, bugg-shoggog, y'hah: Yog-Sothoth, Yog-Sothoth ... Pray that you are amongst the first to be eaten. I pray to be one of the last. Edward Damcyan: 47 
Seth vs Pikachu
OblivionKnight Rats. If there's one thing soldiers hate, it's rats. Gnawing at your blankets, eating your food, leaving fecal matter in your mouth at night, etc. It's a horrid, horrid thing they do. They also helped spread the Bubonic Plague. Now, a seasoned soldier has seen his fair share of rats, and learned how to deal with them - encasing posessions, setting traps laced with warfarin (which, incidently, is a commonly used anticoagulent), etc. Of course, everyone has their own way of dealing with the pests. Seth, in particular, latched an atomic bomb onto his javelin, and tossed it at the rat. Oh, Pikachu dodge the javelin ok, but the resulting nuclear detonation left her a very, very sad panda... ...interestingly enough, the breakaway Soviet republic of Kookoostan wants to know where Seth got the weapon, and is prepared to offer him one-hundred billion kookosians (about equal to $3 American) for another one. Seth: 55 Lyndis

Garcia vs Zhuzhen Liu
Grefter Zhuzhen had no idea how Strago had pulled it off, but he did it. He got Garcia into the ring thoroughly roughed up without anyone seeming to notice. So with that match out of the way it was time to go pay off his debt. It was odd to be doing work similar to that of Dehuai, but how could he refuse with bait like this? A victory and a chance to watch, well worth it he thought. Now to begin the chant and summon the being that Strago wanted... Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn. Garcia: 36 UltraDude
The Nether Scroll Saga Monkeyfinger Edwin and Keldorn walked forward through a hallway full of the charred corpses of spiders and rogues to come out in a large room with a table in the center and a downwrads-leading stairway at the right of the room. This location was, of course, familiar to the pair of them. The stairs would lead down to one last hallway followed by the final room of Bodhi's old lair, and the inevitable confrontation with the latest mad wizard to threaten Athkatla. Even with no one at their backs to tend to their wounds, this mission was as easy as they expected to to be. Their skills not dulled since their days of battling mad wizards of godlike powers, high-order demons from the abyss, and spawn of a greater god, Edwin and Keldorn had no trouble reducing giant spiders and shadow thieves to so much sausage filler. "Hmph, just as I expected from the moment I laid eyes on him in the arena, this so-called prothet is no match for my skills." Edwin said. "(In fact, between the patheticness of these foes and my ability to use parts of my spellbook those infernal DL judges ban me from using in the arena, I can easily make it to, and defeat, this Mother even if my paladin companion should suffer an.... unfortunate accident. Yesss...)" he muttered to himself. Keldorn, being close enough to hear this last muttering, wheeled around to face Edwin. "I do not plan on dying here, wizard, and you would do well to watch your tongue", Keldorn said as he angrily advanced on Edwin. As the righteous paladin and the self serving wizard glared at each other, Edwin spotted yet another dimensional portal opening up a ways behind them. "Behind you, you stupid paladin!" Edwin shouted out, before beginning a spell chant, then firing a skull trap past Keldorn, right in front of this new portal. This particular one was taking quite a bit longer to form than the normal ones Phase Spiders used, and looked rather different... somewhat like a different style of dimensional transportation Edwin had seen and indeed used in the past, in fact... but this observation barely registered in Edwin's brain. He could also hear Keldorn screaming at him to stopcasting spells, but, of course, he tuned this out. As the trap detonated, he cast a fireball at the spot where it went off... ...to see the charred corpses of two humans where the portal appeared. Keldorn walked over to, and examined, the bodies before glaring angrily at Edwin. "Fool! Do you know what you just did?" "Killed some more of these thugs before they took our hides, that's what I did, damnable ape..." "NO! These two people are Fuse of IRPO and Aya Brea of the NYPD. Two individuals, who, like me, strive to uphold law and fight for justice. Something I'd not expect a man like you to know about. Clearly, they were sent here to assist us in putting an end to this "Mother", and you took their lives! How did you fail to notice that this was a different kind of gate than the ones the spiders use!?" "We did not need their help, you blathering idiot! These weak creatures we have faced so far have been no threat! What do the lives of a pair of worthless morons bent on "upholding law and fighting for justice" mean to me? Shut up and keep leading the way down to mother, NOW!" Keldorn wordlessly brandished Carsomyr and charged at Edwin for that outburst. Chucking derisively, Edwin cast a spell, creating several stone barriers around himself. This foolish paladin would just be yet another swordsman to fall helplessly to the power of Stoneskin... As Keldorn's first swing of the Carsomyr struck home, all the stone protection surrounding Edwin vanished in a blue cloud. Cursing himself for forgetting the dispelling properties of that blade, Edwin drew his staff in a desperate attempt to fend off the inevitable followup swings. It was hopeless. The Holy Avenger cut Edwin down before he could get one more spell off. Turning his back to the mangled body of Edwin, Keldorn walked past the corpses of Aya and Fuse and marched down the stone staircase leading to the bottom of the tombs. Finding no more spiders or thugs hiding in the shadows, Keldorn came face to face with Mother. "Where... WHERE IS THAT WIZARD WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MY CONDITION? WHERE IS HE!? I WILL HAVE HIS HEAD MYSELF! Mother... Mother will see him dead..." "Dead. And soon, you shall be. Your crimes against the city of Athkatla end here, witch." "Heeheehee. I see. That sword of yours... useless against me. No manner of physical weapons have an effect on me. You should have taken more care to keep Edwin alive. You'll suffer for stealing my revenge." It was Keldorn's turn to curse himself for forgetting something critically important. Indeed, no physical weapon had been able to deal with Mother's powers of displacement, and Carsomyr would be no different. Chaos Disorder destroying his mind was Keldorn's last memory. "Mother.... I am unopposed now. With the resources of this city at my fingertips.... yes, it will only be a matter of time before I have you back..." Enforcers team up: 8 Aya and Fuse: 5 Edwin and Keldorn: 6 Malik: 15 Mother destroys all: 10
Zidane's Revenge Silverlocke980 There are many truths in the DL. One is that Kefka will always be around to make his creepy 16-bit laugh. Another is that FF8 characters are an easy win for almost everybody. And the last is that Zidane's destiny is to fail. Between Ghaleon playing volleyball with his forehead to the sheer bad luck he's had every other time he's been in the DL, Zidane is not someone you think of when you think "victory". And so it is here. Unfortunately for the crew, every problem that could go wrong does go wrong, and they are- as the choice above aptly states- crushed. On attempting to find Edge, all they find is a note with the words " You guys?" followed by hastily scribbled ha-ha's. Bystanders report that Edge's laughter could be heard over four blocks of DL's main city. Unfortunately for Zidane and crew, Edge's report on what they were planning was heard over a much larger distance, and so Edge didn't bother fighting them himself: he just watched what happened after. After hearing the deal from Edge, Maria Traydor and Franz of Iskay made a deal with Shigeo; posing as bodyguards of Shigeo's massively popular rock band, they managed to catch Zidane as he snuck into the band's backstage area during one of their sold-out concerts and promptly beat him within an inch of his life. Alys Brangwin opted to stay outside the band area, and when the unlucky monkey staggered out of the band room, beaten terribly, he saw nothing but an elixir on the ground in front of him. Upon drinking it, the then-healed Genome looked up and saw Alys. His screams barely penetrated the raging rock music blaring through the arena. Zidane finally went to return to Charmles' mansion, to report his failure. When he got there, however, there was blood on the walls and one person on the seat in front of him. They say Zidane's eyes grew larger than his head when Fou-Lu said, " Hello." Zidane succeeds: 21 Zidane fails: 12 Zidane really fails: 49 Tide
