How about "Wizards at War"?

There was of course Seppä Ilmarinen, a black-smith who was incredibly good at his work and could make magical items and weapons...



Or how about Joukahainen, another wizard, but he would not be as strong in spells as Väinämöinen , but more in physical strenght, due to his young age.

BTW: I'm named after Ilmarinen.

Yeah...But I wonder if he's strong enough...He could be, if he used Seppä Ilmarinen's weaponry!

But you're not nearly as strong...You do have the same IQ though
(For those who don't know, Joukahainen was rather ignorant)

i wasn't particularly thinking of magic swords or special sheilds. more just basic combat moves, combined with magic, and summoning.

How about Chucksqueek - Absolute Combat?
Chucksqueek would be the name of the wizard tournament... Something like Soulcalibur, but a little less shiny, and a little more Chucksqueek

DopyG, can you draw me up a possible shortlist of magicans and deities of magic from this? thanks a lot!

i tried looking on wikipedia, but it was mainly full of usuless information.

one name springs to mind for the japanese mages, Inari, the god of prosperity, who could summon the Kitsune (nine tailed foxes). he was ment to be fickle, cunning, wily, somewhat lecherous and hedonistic, but brave as well. often armed with a sickle. specialises in instant heals and stamina boosts (in game)

Nice, but I thought no Gods were allowed (Inari)

And you need someone else for the Japanese team...

I'll try to look for something about the chinese.

i'm allong 1 god, as long as they have something to with either magic or fighting, and weakened, mortal, or and avatar. in Inari's case, he has decided to become mortal so that he can marry a mortal woman. however, now that Set has entered the tournement, to reclaim his godhood, Inari, along with Morrigan and a few other, are trying to stop him.

well, a minor god will do, along with a dragon in human form. an important chinese hero should finish the trio.

you've done really well, Spectrum.

Thanks!

Well, do you think you need a japanese team and a chinese team of just a sort of far-East team?

And as for the chinese hero...I guess it should be a she, right? Just to balance the team out.

I'm on it

Edit: Hey look what I found I don't know if he's what you're looking for... He's not female, but suppose the dragon in human shape has a female body?

Shall I keep looking?

that might annoy the japanese, chinese and all the other countries in the far east (including Thailand, laos, java, to name a few) Japan and china have had a traditional rivalry, so it wouldn't be good to put them together.

also they differ so much in folk lore, and it would be a shame to combine the two into one, because you loose alot of possiblity for spells, summoned creatures and fighting styles!

their aren't many female heroes in china, so i suggest a male hero, with a female dragon, or a female local god (both are possible)

Okay you replied while I was editing. See the edit

You're right; my thoughts exactly, on the dragon possibly being female.

Do you need another suggestion for a chinese hero or shall we move on to the japanese team?

we need to decide names for them

we have Houyi, the female dragon, power over water (chinese dragon had the power over water, and it kind of gives us a nice balance of the most powerful non-god mages, Houyi= water, merlin= wind and two more for fire and earth)

we need to name the local god and for the hero, and a special power for each.

for those who don't know, each mage on each team can do magic, can fight and also can summon creatures to help. each mage specialises in one of these feilds for each team. for the druid (british) team, we have merlin specialising in magic (wind), Faust specialising in summoning (demons) and Morrigan specialising in combat (wardancer storm).

Houyi...He's the mythological Chinese archer...I just posted the link.

Well...So the chinese team needs what? Is the dragon the mage, fighter of the summoner? What's it's name? Does Houyi (The mythological Chinese archer) qualify as the fighter?

I think I can get you names of famous samurais for the japanese team. Then you can exaggerate him a bit with magic

Then the japanese need a summoner and a mage. Do you know of any japanese myths with any magic in it?

i don't think so. its more close combat fighting, rather than ranged.

sounds cool

the summoner i was thinking of Inari, as he can someone Kitsune, and tanuki (weird raccoons who are linked with prosperity)

the myth with lots of mages in is the Jiraiya Goketsu Monogatari. that has three big mages in. i've avioded using them, because the Manga Naruto has used them as well, and i didn't want to have any confusion.
