Frequently a Foil for the hero, who's ultimately Not So Different. Often they show what the hero could have become if fate was just a little bit different. If fate is unkind, they might turn evil. On the other hand, the rival might develop a genuine friendship with the hero and perform a HeelFace Turn can somewhere down the line. If he is forced to team up with the hero over a common threat expect much awesomeness to ensue. --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs |

Johnbobb 07/26/18 10:20:30 AM #7 | I think there needs to be a stricter clarification of the match rules. As it is, there's nothing preventing her from just killing him, as long as he falls before she does even short of murder, is cheating allowed? can you tickle an opponent to make them fall? --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs |
