User blog:Inferno Pendragon/Arodnap (Shadow of Death Reboot)

well, a quick blog but quite important.. we need to establish which heroes will be facing which villains and I think for maximum storytelling we should keep the tradition of pairing villain / hero fights based on personality and conflicting ideals (not just power).

however some villains (like Evil and Seya) are just too vast to fight alone and thus the Big Bads are obviously excluded from this discussion as every hero (and some villains) will face these guys at some point in the story.

Now, who shall be best suited to be Arodnap's nemesis? because of all the bad guys Arodnap may be the most utterly chaotic (Seya excluded).. in a way I feel Nova would be part of taking Arodnap down (alongside Kane) because Arodnap is FAR worse than Kane and Nova..

I can't have Inferno fighting Arodnap personally as I feel as part of the Once and Future King his involvement in the saga will be more akin to trying to calm / restore those revived from the dead (since he will have spiritual powers and connections) as well as dealing with potential Wather-infestations due to Evil's goal.

What is known is Arodnap's chains shall be broken and when those chains go off.. well.. we're going to need someone that can handle Arodnap and pretty fast as she does NOT play well with others and is insane enough she doesn't even fear beings like Evil (who can destroy her by sneezing).

(also I know there are plenty of other insane villains around but Arodnap is a rather unique case, she gives no fucks whatsoever about ANYTHING or ANYONE.. which means heroes and villains alike may need to find a way to take her out)

we also need to think on who best to take on Warmonger.. since the "God of War" needs a suitable counter from hero team (remember, nemesis needs more than just power.. it should conflict with a villain or maybe they share traits with said villain.. something connects them..).

Adam Man will be countered by SIM, it may seem a bit egocentric but these two are designed to oppose each other (a machine that longs to be treated as a living being versus a man that longs to convert life into machines).

Oath may be countered by Bounce but someone will need to be around to help Bounce out because psychologically he's not prepared for the Complete Monster stuff Oath can pull (Oath is very evil, so much so I have yet to actually show his villainy proper in stories yet as I sometimes feel uncomfortable writing Oath).
