fierce/roundhouse) must be blocked high.


==Endings==

After finishing off Pyron, you will be treated to a cinematic ending
unique to the character you were using.  [note - anybody out there want to 
send in better desc's for Rikuo and SasquatchÕs endings? :-]

DEMITRI: [Van Hoang Nguyen writes]
Defeat Pyron, screen narrows to letterbox.
Demitri: "You are a worthy opponent Pyron, but you are not strong enough
        to rule.  I am the true master of the night!"
Fade to a ballroom, with people Dancing.
Person:  Where is lord Maximoff?  I haven't seen him in a while.
Person2: He was here a moment ago.  He must have stepped out.
Fade to a martini glass held up to a red moon.
DeMitri:  A toast to my new rule!
Picture of DeMitri alone in a dark room, moon in the window behind him.
DeMitri:  With the forces of the night at my command, no one will be able
        to stop me!  Even the day dwellers will soon bear their throats
        to me!
Room brightens, revealing two women clinging to DeMitri.
Game over.

J. TOLBAIN: [Van Hoang Nguyen writes]
Picture of JT howling, werewolf form.
    Talbain:  I've done it! The others have been destroyed
Picture of Talbain, looking serious.
    Talbain:  She said I'd be cured after I pushed my limits.
    The day I exceeded my limits I would be granted my greatest wish
Talbain starts turning back human
    Talbain:  Yes! I can feel myself returning to normal!  I will
    finally be rid of this curse!
Picture of him, human, standing on a rock:
    Talbain:  I'm normal again!  I'll remember this day for the rest
    of my life!

VICTOR: [Julien Beasley writes]
Victor is caressing a skeleton's skull. The skeleton is lying in a red
coffin, and Victor is leaning over it.
Victor: Doctor, Doctor wake up. You made me the stongest and I won.
Why are you so quiet?
The screen pans over to a girl behind Victor:
Girl: Victor...
Girl: Father cannot share your joy. The villagers were not so kind.
Come, there is much to do.
New picture of girl swinging from Victor's arm.
Girl: Tomorrow we plan but today let us celebrate!

L. RAPTOR:  [thanks to Ben Noel]
Lord Raptor's evil master shows up and congratulates the ghoul on a job
well done.
Raptor demands that his master fulfill his end of the bargain
The big guy agrees and bestows the power upon Raptor.
Raptor: Yes, this is it! I now have the power to rule the world!
Master: Yes, Raptor... and I rule you.
Master leaves.
Raptor: That fool!, I have the ultimate power, soon every one will bow
before my might..even the master!
Raptor transforms into an improved, nastier, ghoul.

MORRIGAN: [Van Hoang Nguyen writes]
Picture of Pyron unconscious on the ground, Morrigan leaning
over him.
    Morrigan says something like: "Sleep now forever.  Sleep and dream
    of me."
She then kisses him, then he shrivels up into a corpse.
Picture of the castle in Morrigan's background, then a servant.
    Servant says something like:  "Mistress, you were gone so long!
    I was so worried.  If the 'master' found out about your jumps to
    Earth, he'd do things to me that would frighten even you!"
    Morrigan:  Don't worry, I can handle 'the master.'
Picture of a large room, Morrigan lying on a stone slab.
    Servant:  So what were you doing on earth?
    Morrigan:  Just having some fun, nothing to be worried about.
Morrigan turns to the screen and smiles.  Game over.

ANAKARIS: [poster's name withheld by request]
  A battle between Egyptians is being waged in front of a pyramid.  The
scene switches to the inside of the pyramid were three figures are
discussing the battle.  One mentions that several divisions have been
destroyed and that the battle is lost.  A glowing light appears in the
center of the screen, followed by a flash of light.  When the light
subsides, Anakaris is standing before them in the flesh.  One of the
Egyptians says "My Lord, you have returned."  Anakaris mentions a
promise to protect them for all of time, and shows them the power he
has gained on his journey -- he hold his hands above him and a white
light is emitted from his hands into the air in a beam.  The scene
switches outside were the battle is being still being fought, and the
white beam erupts from the pyramid, and a white flash engulfs the whole
screen.  When the light fades, the enemy have disappeared.  The Egyptians
rejoice, and the scene changes to a view of Anakaris standing before
all his followers in a courtyard.  The followers are chanting "All
Hail Anakaris the Defender!"

FELICIA:


Reporters: Who are you?  Where did you come from?
Stranger: I don't care who you are or what you are, sign up with me and
          I'll make you rich and famous beyond your dreams!
Felicia: Sure, where do I sign?  But I warn you now though, I have big
         dreams!

Narrator: Felicia, known as one of the DarkStalkers made a series of flims
          detailing her adventures within them.
Felicia: Hope I can have Blanka as my leading man!

BISHAMON: [Van Hoang Nguyen writes]
As soon as you defeat Pyron, Bishamon floats into the air.  His armor pops
off showing a human Bishamon in a plain black robe(samurai robe, I assume).
He falls to his knees, with his face in his hands.  Screen fades to black,
then shows a closer picture of him.
Bishamon says something like:  How long must I endure it?  How long must I
    live with the cursed sword and armor?
A women appears behind Bishamon and says:  Bishamon, my beloved.
Bishamon turns his head and says:  Orin! My love.  I understand now that my
    oath to protect my master and property was not enough.  I must seek
    out and destroy evil wherever it is.
It starts to snow.  Orin says:  Yes, but you will never again be alone.
Fade to a picture of a trail leading up to the mountains.  Its still
snowing. Bishamon (sans armor) appears, wearing one of those circular
travelling hats. He walks up the trail.  The woman appears, and follows
him up the trail.  Fade to black.  Game over.

RIKUO: [Ethan K. Butterfield writes]
After beating Pyron, this girl runs up to Rikyo and says something like, "I
thought I was the only one of our race left." They have a grand reunion,
get married, and have tadpoles for the rest of eternity. The End.

SASQUATCH:
Sasquatch sends a letter home to the leader of his tribe.  The time is
right for the grand scheme.
The leader prepares his warriors and the furry snow monsters proceed to
take over the world.
