Samurai

There is one class of warrior that annoys ALL of the other classes... Samurai. Samurai are an enigma, since they have strange codes of conduct that not even Pirates follow.

For one thing, they refuse to fight with someone with no honor. Thus, Robots, Ninjas, and Dentists are out of luck for a Samurai duel, since Samurai refuse to fight them. But their spirits... here, let me set up a scenario for you.

Scene: A robot prepares to fight a Samurai.
Robot: I... Will... Kill... You...
Samurai: You are a robot. You are equipped to kill humans. Your equipment is unfairly matched with mine. You have no honor.
Robot: I... will... kill... you?
Samurai: Go ahead and try, robot dog!
Robot: I... Will... Kill... You!
(Blasts samurai into oblivion)
Robot: That... was... easy...
(Samurai's ghost comes up out of dead body.)
Samurai's Ghost: YOU KILLED ME WITHOUT HONOR!
(slashes robot into tiny, tiny bits.)

That's how a Samurai fights someone with no honor. Now, if you have honor, the battle will go something like this:

Viking: Bring it on, Samurai!
Samurai: We shall fight with HONOR!
(Viking attacks. Samurai's stupid slow armor stupidly slows him down. Viking stabs Samurai. Samurai dies.)
Viking: That was easy.
(Samurai's ghost comes up out of Dead Body.)
Samurai's Ghost: You fought with honor! You shall get a reward!
Viking: A reward? COOL!
(Samurai's Ghost slashes Viking into tiny, tiny pieces.)
Samurai's Ghost: The afterlife is much better than this life, so you will like it better than here.

So you see why the classes find Samurai to be annoying. If you kill them, their ghost will kill you, no matter what. And no, anti-ghost serum won't stop them either. Anti-Ghost serum only works on Ninjas embued with the power of ancestral fury... but, they have to complete the quest first.

I'll talk about Samurai on another date.

Olaf the BAAAAALD!

Have you tried the spectral sword or maybe a bottle to put the spirit in?

I am going to answer your question, Mr. Anonymous, but first, the VIking Code (of which there is none, i just made it up so I can come up with a good excuse to make fun of you) states that a viking who speaks to someone without a cool viking name, is required to make fun of their name.

Anonymous? Just that ONE name? seriously? how bout this: Charles the Anonymous. Even THAT sounds a little lame, so here's yours: Charles the Mysterious. That'll get you a date right there, boy-howdy!

Samurai Spirits do not follow the laws of other spirits. Samurai are their own type of Dog. If you showed s Samurai a spectral sword, they'd eat it, then KILL YOU! Not good to mess with. And a bottle? WHat drugs are you on, man? I think you're playing a little too much Zelda, if you catch my drift.

True! Girls are supposed to like guys that seem to be mysterious, even if they're really not and are only perceived as such.

Also:


[Run] Something strange goin on
Something's wrong
[DMC] Gloom in the room
Outside is the storm
All alone in the crib
Watchin the tube
[Run] Yo-o-o-o is that what I think?
Did I see somethin move?
[DMC] Chill down your spine
Your heart fills with fright
Not filled by the things
that GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT
They walk through the walls
With no time to stall
[Run] You call the GHOSTBUSTERS
Well that's who you call!

GHOSTBUSTERS!
We ain't-we ain't-we
We ain't afraid of no ghosts
GHOSTBUSTERS!
We ain't-we ain't-we
We ain't afraid of no ghosts
GHOSTBUSTERS!
We ain't-we ain't-we
We ain't afraid of no ghosts
GHOSTBUSTERS!
[Run] Stop! UHH!
[DMC] Bridge
[Run] Hit it!

Would that solve your problem?

Sigh... Its obvious that I am blogging to a large group of modernized technologicalers. I got something for ya, fire: GHOSTBUSTERS ARE FICTIONAL.

Except when they're not.

If you don't understand my logic, then you shouldn't be readin' this.

And besides, if the ghostbusters tried to take on a samurai's ghost, he'd devour them anyway. They BUST, not KILL.

dhruvfire said...

I shift the blame! Anonymous, you're really Captain K. Deal with it. And you don't have to kill ghost Samurai on Zelda, do you?

Olaf the Bald said...

Actually, I don't know bout the Samurai Ghost killing junk. I've actually never played a Zelda game before, since ZELDA IS FOR NERDS!

Except its the best game ever.

But for Nerds.

Hmmmmmm...

Wikipedia time!

(One quick wikipedia look-up later...)

There ARE things called Stalfos, which aren't ghosts, but skeletons, which act like Samurai. The only 'Ghosts' aren't Samurai. But you DO stick ghosts into bottles in Zelda.

That's all I got. Any Zelda freaks out there, enlighten us.

dhruvfire said...

But do you have to stick these Stalfos in bottles? No, because their not ghosts.

Sam Galati said...

The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time (Yes! It is the best game EVER!) is a game in which you do kill Stalfos, but it just so happens that they do not turn into ghosts when they die... they just die. But, there is a race know as Poes. (course there are large poes and normal poes, but that's besides the point). When you kill a poe its ghost appears, but unlike Samurai's ghosts, poe's ghosts can't attack (or even move around for that matter), all they do is sit there and wait for you to stuff them in a bottle. Samurai's ghosts are much different. They are like the samurai, but dead... and much better at killing!

If that isn't enough clarification, then I think someone needs to try the game for themselves... :)
