Character Bracket Round 5 (Final)

[RadZakpak]

... Hello.... Why is this infernal (static) never clear? ... Ah, yes, that's better. I am Doctor Maxis, but that is not what is important right now. The fate of the multiverse is at stake. You have been choosing for so long, but you must know your final decision could have many potential repercussions. I am trusting you will make the correct choice. 

 

If you are unfamiliar with this experiment, I will spare a few words to teach you the procedures. Imagine, if you will, you were forced to decide who had a greater impact on our understanding of natural history:

 

1. Charles Darwin or Alfred Russel Wallace

 

After studying and pondering over their work, you would make a final decision, like so:

 

1. Charles Darwin: Though Wallace initially had many progressive ideas on our evolution, his ideas on spiritualism hold back his intuition. Darwin simply kept his wits about him throughout his career.

 

Of course, your reasoning can vary. But, I implore you to be careful whom you decide should hold this mantle of responsibility in restoring the universe.

 

In approximately seven days, taking into account hours of difference in time on your Earth and in Agartha, I will aggregate the data and we will know who will win this war for the rest of us.

 

 

Here are your choices:

 

1.

Edward Richtofen (Ultimis): The greatest rival of one of my alternate selves. His methods are unconventional... perhaps even a bit evil. However, his will and influence are strong.

 

vs.

Takeo Masaki (Primis): Takeo has proven himself coming this far against myself and many other strong candidates. He has spirit and battle experience to boot, and his values make him a noble warrior.

 

Good luck, and... hold on... there will be room for one more match between... oh dear...

 

Do not panic. Everything is under control. However, I urge you to make haste. Doctor Monty may be aware of what you are doing.

Choose between two runner-ups to assist the winner in their war. These two are potentially dangerous and volatile, perhaps not more than Richtofen, but they are our only hope for survival.

 

2. Ludvig Maxis (Original Timeline): Another version of myself that spent many years feuding with Doctor Richtofen in the lab and through radio waves. His anger and desire for revenge are responsible for the deaths of billions.

 

vs.

The Shadowman: The Harbinger of Doom. If what Doctor Monty has told me is true, The Shadowman may not be able to be trusted. I know, first hand, how enticing his words may be.

 

 

Begin voting immediately, there is little time before (static) ...

Richtofen

 

Maxis

 

I already said everything that needs to be said.

[Inconcievable]

Takeo and the Shadowman.

 

@RadZakpak “I will show you the Path...”

[RadZakpak]

I'm going Richtofen for the winner, and The Shadowman as the runner-up.

Primis Takeo is the best character though Ultimis Richtofen is certainly right in 2nd place, so good job to us we nailed it.

 

 

Runner up, shadowman was a nice meme but maxis is a great great character

 

 

[anonymous]

Richthofen, the man with the biggest character development and most tragic backstory. Whilst Takeo is an interesting figure, Richthofen is a true original product, one you see rarely.

 

Runner up for me would be his leader and rival, Maxis. Not only did he just write a neat piece of information, his character is an interesting one as well: A scientist that wants to be a familyman but choses for science nontheless.

(static) -ttle time left... Why don't you- Ah!

 

The data is collected and your selection is complete. I must say, your choices are quite... interesting

 

Doctor Edward Richtofen of the Original Timeline has been chosen as the winner of this experiment by only a one vote lead. Doctor Ludvig Maxis of the Original Timeline is the runner-up with an identical lead to Richtofen. Such a pairing could be catastrophic, however we are left with no more options. Our fate was in your hands, and now, it is in theirs.

 

My days in this house are limited... but the children will be safe if our plan succeeds. Auf Wiedersehen, my friends.

How could it end any other way?

[Lenne]

Do y'all think a character like Ultimis Richtofen would still be made in this day and age?

 

I kinda doubt it. We were really lucky to have these characters in our gaming lifes. :' )

I'm not sure any of Ultimis would be made today. That's not to suggest they are outdated or people today don't know how to make good characters, but they are very indicative of the era in video game writing in which they were made. But I'm very happy we had them, and we got to follow them through till the end.
