My gut sez Hank but my brain sez Durkon...what to do?

Grukgruk

Don't care for either.

Demon Roaches! Truly a hellish caliber of puns...

Durkon all the way

General Chang got to be a ghost marter, which is awsome in it's own right

meh.... Pompey .... I guess...

Demon-Roaches have almost a monopoly on the best one-liners (not total, but close)

Only Paladins of the Sapphire Guard got to be ghost-martyrs, and General Chang wasn't one of them - he was simply a secular General of the Army of Azure City.

Geh! I got confused, I thought I saw him in the throne room scene, but the link was to the courtyard. For some reason the old fighter in this scene was stuck in my head.

Don't change my answer though, just the reason for it. Still a cool old dude, who I think was in more scenes than his opponent in this match-up, anyway....

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.. . That first one was grossly unfair- I really like the Katos, but I also really like Nale and his role in the strip (I think having two major villains is more awesome than just one), vote for Nale!

And on the other hand, the last one? Damn, that was sad too- I hate Eugene's guts but he makes for awesome conversations with Roy, its just that Tarquin is Tarquin, the definitive Magnificent Bastard.

These are some nice match-ups.

. Let's hope he pulls at least one of his schemes right before his inevitable demise.

Chief. I never liked Hilgya.

Shadowdancer. The guy with li'l stars.

Heh. Both are fathers of PCs. But while one is a grumpy old coot, the other is one of the most awesome badass villains ever. all the way.

Two of my favorite characters in this matchup! Just wish I could vote early & often...

Kazumi! Babe's got some of the best one-liners in the whole show. "Turns out I get knocked up easier than I get knocked out!"

Chief. Bonus points for the boss mustache.

Flumphs. Poor bastards deserve the vote, though winning this round would probably just put them in a more terrible situation later.

and Tarquin, you wine-swilling plot-ravelling meta-gaming beauty!
