This is a hero concept I've been working on for a while and wanted to share with you.
Smiğur
Etymology: From Old Norse smiğr, from Proto-Germanic *smişaz. Compare Norwegian and Swedish smed, German Schmied, Dutch smid, English smith.
Pronunciation:
IPA(key): /ˈsmiːjʊɹ/
Faction: Viking
Personality: The Smiğur doesn't like people at all, he prefers to stay in his shop working his metal. He favors the company of iron, because unlike people, iron is malleable, iron always shows its true self, iron never lies. Since the last war, the Smiğur has a debt to settle, and he is intending to claim what is rightfully his. The Smiğur bases many of his aesthetics around the "extreme metal" look, act and sound.
Physique: An older guy, burly and hairy with a beerbelly. Mean and strong as eff. Bitter and full of rage.
Weapons: Dual blacksmith hammers.
Gender: Male
Type: Heavy
Hit Points: 140
Stamina: 120

EXECUTIONS
A Sacrifice to the Thundergod
The Smiğur grabs hold of the straggling opponent with one of his arms, holding him in tight. Raising the other hammer into to the sky. ”Ása-Şór! Fórn mín til şín!” ”Thor! My gift for you!” The hammer acts like a conductor and is struck by lightning electrocuting the sacrifice which falls to the ground. The gift has been accepted. The Smiğur is of course left unscathed.
Just Let It All Out
The Smiğur roars at the top of his lungs, stunning the opponent who falls backwards onto the back. The opponent, still on his back, seeing how the Smiğur approaches, tries to crawl away. ”Şú sleppur ekki...” ”You can't flee...”. The Smiğur then takes both of the hammers in his right hand smashing them three times into the victim, starting with the abdomen, then chest, then head.
Crushing Walls
The Smiğur grasps the hammers high up on the handles and holds the top sides on the left and right side of the head of opponent. Pressing inwards slowly. ”BWAHAHAHA!”
Three Times Hello
The Smiğur grabs the opponent by the shoulders and finishes him off with three crushing headbutts. "Halló! Halló! Halló!"
Year 3 Season 1 execution - THE GIANT PENDULUM
The Smiğur punches his victim once in the stomach with his left hand. The victim slouches forward from the gigantic hit and at the same time, the Smiğur grabs both hammers in one hand. He lifts them up and lets gravity do the rest. "Klukkan slær eitt!!" "The bell tolls one o'clock!!" Swoosh! DÖNG! The victim goes flying. (Yes, it can ledge)
EMOTES
Combat
Hit it Very Hard
The Smiğur holds the left hammer in front of him hitting it hard on the top with the right hammer. Demonstrating how this fight is going to play out.
The Viking Washing machine
The Smiğur bends his knees slightly and places his palms on his thighs and starts to roll his head in a circular motion. The motion creates a big swirl of beard and hair.
Demonstration: https://youtu.be/mKav4_vsGSc?t=58
Free Roam
The Big War Drum
The Smiğur lightly beats a solid rythm with the hammers on his beerbelly. A light sound effect of four strokes on a war drum is played.
You're nothing to me
The Smiğur crosses his arms and spits on the ground. He doesn't give a rats a$$ about you.
Signature
Working that metal
The Smiğur imitates striking a blade on his anvil.

I have a question for the zone attack: you said it's a double attack from two directions at the same time, but when you block (or parry) an attack there's a small window of time in which you block all incoming attacks, so you would block both of them, which would make the "double attack" thing pretty useless.

Good point. I guess one way of solving it would be to make it an unblockable. That wouldn't make it a chip attack which was my intention though.Originally Posted by bhitrock Go to original post
