#poll: Miniboss Battle

[fevotinggauntletreal]

Introducing: Miniboss Battle

so, while my progress on preparing bigger and wackier poll brackets continues to stall, I decided to shake the dust off this sideblog a little with something a little easier to set up and run. so, here's a character tournament -- but not just any character tournament, you'll notice!

no, this one goes out to the one-hit wonders, to the peeps who show up to chew the scenery for one chapter and then completely die. this one goes out to those enemies that aren't driving the bigger plot, but can make your life miserable (or hilarious) right here, right now. this one is for the minibosses.

here's how it's going to roll:

this will be a straightforward elimination bracket poll tournament

I've already compiled a list of minibosses that I would consider notable enough to participate in the bracket, but nonetheless, I will be taking submissions for a week first, before starting the tournament proper. I'll settle on a number of entrants based on how that all goes, but naturally, the minibosses that you all submit will be prioritized

feel free to submit whichever characters you fancy, but note that I'll be trying to apply some common sense as to what counts as a "miniboss" or not. like, for example, Kostas from Three Houses and Abyme from Engage would be elligible even though they appear in more than one chapter, but if anyone submits, say, Ashnard, I will kick the submission to the curb, and some ass

all polls will be week-long

here's the submission form:

submissions will be accepted until October 11th, after which point the showdown begins.

may the strongest at least get a snappy death line out of the weakest!

LAMIA

Appears in: Genealogy of the Holy War - Chapter 4

Choice quote: "It's been a long time since I've seen such darling villainy anywhere! It's almost enough to turn a weaker stomach."

Propaganda:

she has exactly 0 plot relevance. frankly there doesn't even need to be a miniboss where she is in the chapter, she coulda been a generic unit! however: she is i believe the only enemy female swordmaster in the game, and she is hot as fuck. no story relevance in any way; absolutely slays. she is killing it.

MUSTAFA

Choice quote: "… You were there when Emmeryn spoke, weren't you? So be it! Those of you unwilling to fight are dismissed! (…) I will accept the blame for your actions today. Now go!"
