[Quote=Corazon]I had a vocabulary flop there. My apologies. Still doesn't change the fact that Asmodius fits his status as the ultimate evil of MapleStory. Maybe Morpheus might fit better, but that'd be copying Matrix. And I sure as heck don't want another Voldemort clone. Asmodeus (or Asmodius) is the 32nd most powerful demon in the Goetia. Morpheus is Sleep, you're getting weaker. Try something like Erebus, the Greek god of darkness and shadows. Also, I instantly thought of this:
In battle, there is a defender and an attacker role. The way that the Mercedes VS Orca battle was portrayed skews the roles in that fight. Mercedes was invading Orca's room to get the child back, and Orca was protecting her catch; at the same time, Orca was trying to kill Mercedes over a grudge; Mercedes wanted to make sure Orca didn't kill the child. Thus, it's a role paradox.
In war, those roles change constantly. One second, you're marching on Moscow, the next, the Russians are marching on Berlin. I also don't really see how the roles are relevant.
I assumed you were implying it.
:f6: If I did, it was completely unintentional. The 5 heroes are inevitable, and confirmed by Nexon. (of course, so was a masteria expansion, so there you have it)
True, but let's say for example that Cygnus had to pick her most loyal knight to sit at the Alliance meeting - if Mikhail was picked for his loyalty and experience, that makes him as important, if not more so, than Nineheart being there (especially with Nineheart being Lilin's brother).
So Oz and Hawkeye's absences make them next-door neighbors?
I was using that as a speculation root for Orca's origins, and how she came to join the Black Wings. She had to have had a reason - same with Asmodius wanting to attain immortality. In most stories, the antagonist usually has a motive that drives them towards their ultimate goal. If there was something about the Maple World he didn't like, no matter how miniscule, that creates a motive. I was speculating what Orca's interests could've been before she was a Black Wing, and where she might've come from during the Pre-Black Wings era.
Or she could just really really really like bunnies. They're goddamn cute.
