Please help me choose:

1.
Name: Arodanis.
Sex: Male.
Age: Unknown.
BloodType: Unknown.
Height: Not measurable.
Weight: Not measurable.
BirthPlace/BirthDate: Earthrealm, Scandinavia. Revived in the Netherrealm.
Alignment: Unknown.
Character Signature Quote:
-Win: “Your body... Your soul... Your whole being... Is ANNIHILATED!”
-Loss: “I will return...”
Weapon: Akashi – Seven Ancient Arms: Arodanis holds a legendary immortal weapon Akashi. This weapon looks like an over-designed sword, but do not be fooled. It can turn into many other forms when ever Arodanis wants it to. These are the weapons Akashi contains: the Sword of Lucifer, the Scythe of the Reaper, the Axe of Aeon, the Shield of Cronos, the Bow of Isis, the Spear of Odin and the Claw of Lilith.
Fighting Style(s):
-Akashi Sword: This is Arodanis’ favoured stance. When Akashi is a sword Arodanis fights like a brutal warlord like no other. The Slash of the sword is fatal nonetheless, but also the gateway straight to Hell. Is imbued with the element of Fire.
-Akashi Scythe: The second favoured stance of Arodanis is when Akashi is transformed into a scythe. When he uses the scythe, he is brutal like before, but his whole presence is that of a majestic creature. He uses it with skill and honour. Is imbued with an aura that turns blood into life energy, so each time he slays a victim with the scythe Arodanis regains his health.
-Slaying King Fist: If Arodanis looses his weapon does not mean that he is completely helpless. Arodanis is an experienced warrior and a master of martial arts. He shoots with heavy punches, deadly kicks and great strikes with his fist.

Character Primary Appearance:

-Head: He has a helmet on that looks like a black skull. The helmet’s ”jaw” goes down under Arodanis’ chin, so you can see his mouth. Has long wavy horns on each side and golden spikes from the forehead to the back of his neck. Arodanis’ long black hair comes out from the back.
-Face: Red glowing eyes and tan skin. He has a scar across his face, but you can not see it because Arodanis never takes his helmet off.
-Body: His body is filled with scars. Has a huge black shoulder armour on his left shoulder with golden spikes and outlines on it.
-Arms: Has a strap around his upper arm and a tattoo on his right shoulder, a flaming hand. Wears black gauntlets with golden outlines on both arms that cover his lower arms, hands and golden fingers. Has golden spikes around his wrists.
-Legs: Huge black belt with golden spikes. Red-brown pants with a black piece of clothes, with golden design and outlines, hanging from the belt at the front. Black armour with golden outlines from his knees and down.

Character Arena: Hellish Planes – This is the place at the entrance of the cave he was revived in. The arena is surrounded by hot magma. In the back of the arena is the cave and in front of the arena is a bridge across the lava. The sky is red and the sun is shining through the ashes from the magma.
If a fighter is hit into the cave, he will fall into a deep hole and land inside the cave, a round arena with the champion’s body lying in the middle of it with a sword impaling his back. The arena walls is filled with torches and lit up the cave. Some magma flows out from the wall and down into holes in the arena floor.

Arena Weapon: Skull Sword – This is the sword Arodanis killed the champion with, right after he was revived. The sword looks like a regular sword, but is made of bones and between the blade and the handle there is a skull with straight horns on each side. It is impaled in the back of the champion.

Arena DeathTrap:
Outside the cave in the first arena, you can hit the opponent up on the bridge. When the opponent tries to stand up, the bridge will collapse and end up in the magma WITH the opponent.

Arena Interaction:
Inside the cave, on the arena floor, there are small streams of magma flowing down in small holes. If you step on the magma it will burn you and you will lose energy.

Story:
Many eons ago the Netherrealm was ruled by the almighty devil himself, Lucifer, the Fallen Archangel of Light. He created the Onis and the other demons living there and was a great ruler whom all respected or feared. By his side he had his most excellent killer, his right hand in battle and his bodyguard. His name was Arodanis. He was a fearless warlord like no other, brutal and strong, and he did everything his master asked for without questioning his intentions.
Arodanis has not been an Oni his whole life. He was once a human, a barbarous Viking from the earliest of times in Earthrealm. He led his people to their deaths, believing they would be accepted by their god in the afterlife. But he ended up in the Netherrealm to be punished. The Oni Tormentors tried to catch him so they could torture him in eternity, but Arodanis would not give up so easily. He fought every single Oni he could and killed them. That was more than enough to get Lucifer’s attention. Even though Arodanis murdered several of his minions, Lucifer could not stop to admire Arodanis’ skills. He made him his ally and Arodanis became the dark general.
After many millennia, the Elder God Shinnok was banished to the deepest plane of the Netherrealm. Raiden and Lucifer made a deal: If Lucifer could keep Shinnok in his prison, he would be free from the Elder Gods’ will. Unfortunately, Shinnok found his way out and after a long war, he gained the throne of the Netherrealm by killing Lucifer himself. Arodanis was murdered by trying to defend his master. And since Lucifer was no longer under the Elder Gods’ will, they never realised what had happened in the Netherrealm.
Many years after this, Shinnok tried to get revenge on Raiden and the Elder Gods’, but failed and was killed. And since then the Netherrealm has been in the hands of chaos. The Elder Gods’ tried to take control of the realm, but there was too much chaos so their control did not last long. They realised that they had to do something about this and so they sent out a champion to find Lucifer’s soul. The champion had a powerful weapon, which could take many forms. It changed after its master’s will.
The champion fought his way through the Netherrealm and in his search he found the very body of Arodanis, his body intact, in an unknown cave. Arodanis’ soul was floating above it and haunted the cave. In a ritual, the champion revived Arodanis, who immediately killed the champion and took his weapon. The dark soul Arodanis beheld tainted the weapon and made it evil. He named the weapon Akashi.
With his body revived, Arodanis went on a quest. He blamed Raiden of Netherrealms downfall and his master’s death. If they had never made a pact, he would still be living and ruling the realm. And he swore he would kill everyone who would stand in his way...

Moves:
-Akashi Shield, Block – The Shield of Cronos will appear on Arodanis’ arm whenever he blocks an attack or projectile.
-Beelzebub Fist, F,HP – With his hand engulfed in flames Arodanis throws a striking fist to the chest.
-Soul Collector, B,HK – Arodanis spins around and hits the opponent in his/her face with this roundhouse kick.
-Skull Cannon, D,HP – With his fist he throws an uppercut, punching the opponent in the jaw and makes him/her airborne and free to juggle attacks.
-Demon Slash, B,LP – When in Akashi Sword/Scythe stance, Arodanis can swing his weapon with such power that the opponent spins in the air and crushes his/her skull to the ground.

Special Moves:
-Akashi Claw, Throw – Arodanis grabs his opponent by the neck and lifts him/her up in the air. While his foe tries to struggle his/her way out of Arodanis’ grasp, the Akashi turns into a mighty blade attached to Arodanis’ arm. Arodanis impales the opponent with his claw and with a force he throws the foe into the ground.
-Akashi Bow, D,B,LP – The Akashi turns into the Bow of Isis and Arodanis aims at his opponent and shoots out an arrow imbued with the element of Lightning. When it hits, the opponent will get a shock of a million volts running through his/her body, paralysing him/her for a few seconds.
-Akashi Axe, B,F,HP – Arodanis lifts his weapon which turns into a great bladed axe and smashes it into the ground. The ground cracks and spikes of rock will damage the opponent, if it hits.
-Akashi Spear, B,B,F,LP – The Akashi turns into the Spear of Odin and Adonis stabs the opponent rapidly with a speed that could not occur, if the spear was not imbued with the element of Wind.
-Flame of Beelzebub, B,D,F,HK – Arodanis is the wielder of a hellish flame and can control it with his mind. In battle, he uses his ability to create a fireball and thrusts it at his opponent.

Fatalities:
-Bloody Hands: Arodanis walks over to his opponent and grabs him/her around his/her neck. He lifts him/her and (if he has it) throws his weapon on the ground. With the other hand he punches through the opponent’s stomach and rips out the spine. The lower half of the opponent’s body gets torn apart from his/her upper body and Arodanis kicks it away and throws the upper body the other way.
-Devil Inferno: Arodanis looks at the opponent and starts to walk away from him/her. When he is in the other end of the arena, he starts to emit flames from his hands. It flies towards the opponent in a pillar of fire and burns everything but the opponent’s skeleton into ashes. When only the skeleton is left, Arodanis stops to emit fire, runs towards the opponent and smashes it with his fist, so every bone flies separate ways.

Hara-Kiri:
Arodanis has no wish of killing himself no matter what situation he is in, so if he is going to die it will be by the hand of the one who defeats him.
(-A funny one: He turns Akashi into a ball, swallows it and commands it to turn into a lot of blades. Then you see the blades tear his body apart from the inside and Arodanis will fall to his death.)

Character Arena: Mount Riverblood – this is the place where Vampires does their sacrifices to their goddess. It is a round arena at the top of the mountain. In the back of the stage there is the sacrificial block, a table-high square rock covered in blood, and on it is a dead body. Around the arena and the block there are torches which lit up the arena. You can hit your opponent out of the arena to each side. The one who falls out, rolls down the mountain side and lands in a river of blood. The river is low, so this can be used as a second arena. At the back of this stage, the mountain side is and in to the right is a blood stream from up the mountain, and to the left is a blood stream to down the mountain.

Arena Weapon:
In the dead body on the block is a long Kriss-like dagger made of silver and is designed with red rubies. You can pull it out of the body and use it.

Arena DeathTrap:
Where the blood stream goes down the mountain there is a chance to knock others out of the arena and down the stream. The one knocked out will flow unconscious with the blood and down a waterfall. At the bottom of the waterfall, huge rock spikes impale the unfortunate and kill him/her.

Arena Interaction:
When fighting in the river, you will be pushed towards the waterfall by the stream.

Story:
When a Vampire does a treacherous act against her kin, she will be caught and sacrificed to the Vampire goddess, Lilith, mother of blood. The ritual starts with cutting of the wings, then pulling out the fangs, and ends the pain by impaling the victim with the Dagger of Blood. But since Lilith has already granted her people immortality, so instead of the dead vampires awakes as an undead spectre in the Netherrealm, they will wake up in the Heavens and be Lilith’s servants as the male Incubus and the female Succubus. These servants do not live by drinking their prey’s blood. Instead they live of their prey’s vigour and life-energy. And when they are filled with these energies, they return to Lilith who uses the energy to keep her Vampires immortal.
Maricia was once a Vampiress, loyal to her prince. But when Nitara became favoured by the prince and sent out to free their people, Maricia’s jealousy made her trying to murder Nitara. Nitara quickly gained the upper hand and defeated Maricia. The prince was disappointed by Maricia’s act and sentenced her to be sacrificed. Nitara was the one to impale Maricia in the stomach with the Dagger of Blood. Maricia felt the life run out of her and her soul torn away from her body. She woke up at Lilith’s shrine and felt a hunger, not for blood, but for life!
She became a Succubus. She served her goddess well for thousand of years, until the day Nitara disappeared. The whole Vampire race disappeared from Lilith’s reach and she began to loose her own immortality. Maricia offered her help, while all the other servants fled from their goddess’ grasp. Lilith thanked her and gave Maricia her body back. Maricia went on a quest to find the Vampires and after some time, she found them at an ancient place. This place was once the Vampires’ real home, before Onaga let it melt with the rest of the Outworld. Maricia went back to Lilith and tell her where the Vampires are, but she found Lilith lifeless. She had lost her immortality. Maricia blamed Nitara for this and went back to the Bloodlands and killed her. Nitara was the first Vampire to feel death. Because of Lilith could not grant the Vampires their immortality any longer, they lost it. The prince was frightened and asked Maricia for help. And together they made a plan. If Maricia could get enough vigour to regain Lilith’s life, he would make Maricia his right hand.
Maricia went out to find someone worthy and strong enough to heal Lilith’s body, but she had no intention to become the Vampire prince’s right hand. Maricia would kill him as the last strong soul and become queen of the Bloodlands. That should be the Vampire race’s punishment for favouring Nitara instead of her...

Moves:
-Heel of Pain, U,HK - A stretched out upper kick, making the opponent airborne.
-Bitch Punishment, F,LP,HP – Maricia spins around and slaps the opponent in the face and then strikes the stomach with her fist.
-Sensuality, B,LK – A sweeping heel kick.
-Woman’s Touch, D,HP – An uppercut with both fists.

Special Moves:
-Vigorous Kiss, Throw – Maricia holds the opponent and kisses him on the lips, sucking out life and heals herself.
-Mist Dash, F,F,LK – Maricia dashes forward while in mist form. If she hits the opponent she turns into flesh again and spins around with a roundhouse kick straight in the opponents head.
-Mist Form, B,F,HP – Maricia turns into mist for several seconds. This makes her invulnerable to physical attacks, but projectiles will hit her.
-Whip Lash, B,F,HK – Maricia does a sweeping kick, then a mid roundhouse and finishes the move with a spinning air roundhouse kick.
-Succubus Avatar, B,B,HP – Maricia shoots out a mist-clone of herself towards the opponent. If it hits, it will appear behind the opponent and kicks him towards Maricia. And while the opponent is airborne, Maricia has a chance to deal some serious juggling.

Fatalities:
-Life Collector: Maricia walks over to the opponent and turns into mist form. She possesses the opponent’s body as its life force disappears and it turns into a grey, rotten corpse which collapses to the ground. Back stands Maricia, who walks away and turns back into flesh again and laughs out loud.
-Tempting Fate: Maricia flirts with her weakened prey, who has a last hope of being spared. Maricia lifts the opponent’s chin with a finger and kisses him on the lips. Just after the kiss, she pulls out her Vampire Wing scythe and slices it upwards. The opponent stands still for a moment, feeling the pain as the body splits into two halves and falls to the ground.

Hara-Kiri:
-Life Hunger: Maricia turns into mist and blows away, because of the lack of vigour.
-Blade Cutter: Maricia throws her scythe up in the air, which slices her into two halves when hitting the ground.



Which one is your favourite?
If you don't like none of them, then please do not respond. I won't tolerate a post with one-line sentences like "they're all stupid" or something like that!
Thank you on advance...
