[Phaedrus45]

I can't find a bio. The only reference I can find is that the character (spelled correctly) killed Dani Moonstar:

I'd blag it and go with Desak t:

Well, I'm positive we must have had a link to it before. I'll have to research it tomorrow. And, noooo....Desak cannot be used. That dude would wipe the competition almost completely out on his own.

 

[Harlekin]

Wow wow, I don't have Alex Wilder. I've got Alex Power from when he was with the New Warriors. I thought we'd agreed on that one.

 

[Phaedrus45]

Ok, I guess we have to come up with a solution. First, I'll research some old Handbooks and see if we have anything. But, I discovered the problem. JewishHobbit gave us a link to Demask that worked at the time. Now, the link takes that character to another character, and all references to Demask have disappeared for some reason. So, we either have to come up with a quick bio, or we have to get another character in place of Demask.

 

[Harlekin]

Stacey X vs. Molly Hayes

Klaw vs. Avalanche

Kitty Pryde vs. Cloak

These are my matches coming up. Something tells me that I have some tough ones to debate. I think I can pull off the Kitty one. Avalanche is going to be tough, and Stacey I'm just going to have to get illegal in so many ways.

Think again, amigo, think again.

Kitty's ass will be going down in retaliation for my earlier defeat.

 

[Phaedrus45]

Yeah, it is. I've been so scrunched on time tonight, and the whole Demask thing has me off my game. I'll switch it now.

 

[Phaedrus45]

I think Demask must be some really bad asian sex term. All I'm finding is sex sites when I bring up that name. I think I'll have to find Darthphere a suitable replacement character.

Ok, I don't think we have this character in the contest. Darth, would you accept Crimson Dynamo as a suitable replacement for your character? You should be able to find enough information on him, and since Demask was your last character chosen on your list, I'm thinking you don't know who that character was anyway.

For now, I'm going to change it on the thread.

 

[Phaedrus45]

Ok, all changes have been made. Alex Wilder now is Alex Powers, as it should have been. Demask has been changed to Crimson Dynamo. (I'm actually kind of surprised we didn't have him in either season 1 or 2.)

Finally for the night, my one vent. I hate how every site has to have an ad that expands just as you are about to click on something. Or, the ones that expand over what you are reading, and you have to find the small words that say "close."

 

[Ahura Mazda]

I don't mind if you use Desak .....if I can have Rune Thor

 

[Harlekin]

I'll be posting this in the specific thread later on as well:

Alex Power (Powerpax)

First off, it's very important to note that is Alex Power when he was with the New Warriors, so this is not the Marvel Adventures version. Alex Power also went by the rather riducilious codename Powerpax (as well as Powerhouse) during that time, so it might be wise to distinguish him as such.

This means that he has the powers of all his siblings, so that means he can control gravity, density, acceleration and energy.

 

[Ahura Mazda]

This sucks...I have time on my hands this week and no matches and I just know that next week; time will be tight Oh well

Picture in Thread 1 has been switched to reflect your character better.

 

[JewishHobbit]

That sucks, Demask is a great character too. She was Demask in the Age of Apocalypse, and Ms. Steed in the main 616, and a member of the London Hellfire Club that appeared around Excalibur 100. She could create mential blades that tore into a person's mind. Here's a link to the hellfire club. Toward the bottom they have some bios and she's listed under Ms. Steed. It's the best I could find. If you want to stick with the original character I think that's as good a bio as we're going to get. I wonder why Mutant High got rid of her other bio?

 

[JewishHobbit]

Screw that mini bio... here's a full Wiki bio (Under Ms. Steed, but it mostly talks about her AoA Demask counter part)

Demask/Ms. Steed

The thing is, at this point, it would be unfair. After reading the bio Jewhob posted for Demask, its clear I would have a better shot in my match with Demask than Crimson Dynamo. Ill do something drastic here, and say whoever harlekin wants to battle is fine by me.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Well, my opinion is that it was a simple mistake reguarding lack of bios, but now that we have a full one, we should stick with the original character. Nothing's been debated yet, so no loss. I think we should stick with Demask.

Note: It is the AoA Demask we're using, not the Ms. Steed version.

Though, she would have the same powers as Ms. Steed correct? Becauses the bio you posted doesnt note any difference.

 

[wiegeabo]

It looks to me as if it was a spelling error. On the list it was spelled Demask, when it really was supposed to be Damask. So I say use Damask as was originally intended (especially since there's a full bio).

 

[Phaedrus45]

Ok, Damask is back up. If anyone has a picture of her, post it in this thread, like Harlekin did with Alex Power, and I'll post it on the "vs." post.


(Here's hoping this is the only glitch in the contest. I had a terrible headache by the time I went to bed last night.)

 

[Darthphere]

So who am I using finally?

 

[Harlekin]

It's only fair for me to face Damask. Let's keep it that way.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Though, she would have the same powers as Ms. Steed correct? Becauses the bio you posted doesnt note any difference.

The powers are the same, but the personality and resources are differant. In the AoA (which we're using), she was cruel, but had a decent heart once she saw beyond the hopeless world. She turned good before the end, but she still had a mean streak, having been an assassin for Apocalypse himself. Also, she'd know most things AoA, but nothing of the 616. In the 616, Ms. Steed was more intelligent and vindictive, and pretty much just twisted. She has connections to the Hellfire Club and to Onslaught and his people, and she'd know much of the 616 universe.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Best I can find

 

[Phaedrus45]

Best I can find

Thanks. When I get home, I'll add the picture to the thread.

 

[Trigger]

lol, did I jump the gun with my first debate?

 

[Harlekin]

So this week I'm going to be the late biatch. Expect rebuttals and opening arguments through the course of tomorrow.
