## Ash Williams

(Cue: Space Truckin - Deep Purple (Ash Vs Evil Dead))

Ashly Williams was born on April 8th, 1957. Raised in Elk Grove and was the first child of Brock Williams. Ash did not get along will with his family during his childhood, arguing frequently with his father after his mom had left his family, leaving him with just his sister, Cheryl. Later in his life, he met his longtime friend, Chet Kaminski, date a girl named Linda Bates, and then date another girl named Linda. He must really like Linda's. Anyways, one night, Ash, Linda, Cheryl, and two new friends Scotty and Shelly drove out to some cabin in the middle of the woods that they either rented or was left abandoned. At this cabin, they found the "Necronomicon Ex-Mortis", or in a easier way to call it, The Book of Death, along with a tape recorder. On the tape was a recording of the previous owner, Raymond Knowby, who was translating a passage in The Book of Death. And by doing so, they accidentally unleashed Kandarian Demon. The demon possessed Ash's friends and sister, killing them all one by one. It wasn't until the last survivor of the demon's possession destroyed The Book of Death by burning it in the fireplace. But by doing so, the possessed bodies of Scotty and Cheryl rapidly decayed and 'died'. Ash thought they got rid of the demon but when morning came, the demon attacked Ash. This caused Ash to become this thing called a Deadite, which are undead spirits that seek to possess a body and feast on the souls of the living.... Isn't that what lawyers are? Well whatever, I hope you understand because shit gets a lot more bizarre from here. Deadites are like vampires, as in the sunlight kills them. The morning sun was driving the evil spirit out of Ash, so he tried to escape it. Ash returned to the cabin when the sun was setting due to the Kandarian Demon being on the hunt again and the cabin being the only "safe" sanctuary from the evil force. Ash successfully hid from the demon, but ended up needing to kill undead Linda with a chainsaw. After doing so, he thought his hand was evil and tried to "kill" it with the chainsaw. But surprise, the professor's daughters and a guy named Jake came to the cabin. After the demon killed nearly everyone in this new group, there remainef two survivors. Being Ash and Annie Knowby. Ash got a shotgun and chainsaw and they had to get a page in the house to get rid of the demon. They turned the demon into a thing of flesh so they can physically attack it and send it into a time portal. But surprise, Ash's evil hand killed Annie with a demon dagger while she was doing the time spell. But thankfully, she was able to complete the spell in her dying breath and sent the demon into a time vortex, but unfortunately sucked in Ash and his car by accident, trapping Ash in 1300 AD.

Well that was a backstory. During Ash's time in 1300 AD and ventures back in and during the 20th century, Ash has picked up a variety of weapons and skills. He has a 12 Gage Double Barrel Remington Shotgun that can send people 15 feet in the air and easily rip through metal, a modified shotgun that shoots grenades called the Grenade Launcher Boomstick, M1911 Semiautomatic Pistol, Sub-Machine Gun, Single-Shot Gun, Winchester Model 1984 Lever Action Rifle (Fires 30 shots before reloading), Spike Rifle, Net Launcher, Leecher/Extinguisher (literally sucks the guts out of enemies and uses it as ammo), Spraypump, Flare Launcher, Bomb Lance, Hand Cannon revolver, Colonial Hand Gun, a shovel that can deflect giant fireballs, Knight Sword, Samurai Sword, crobar, sickle, and a fire axe. He also carries some fun explosives, homemade explosives that can get powerful enough to blow up a car, liquid nitrogen that can freeze foes solid in seconds, hand grenades, molotov cocktails, dynamite sticks that can blow up a 20 foot concrete wall with one stick, bags of gunpowder, and fireworks. His two favorite weapons though is his chainsaw and boomstick, named Moe and Larry.

He has some armor too. A mech suit made from spaceship parts and scrap metal, which gives him superhuman strength and durability. Space suit, which just let's him breathe in space. And a mideval steel and chain armor, which provides great protection from bladed and blunt weapons, though only covers his chest area and maybe his arms.

He carries a lot of miscellaneous. S-MART Name Badge, a to-do list, pet tracker that can accurately track over very large distances, Biker Brotherhood Ring, the incredible weapon called duck tape, flashlights that he sometimes duck tape one to his Boomstick and is bright enough to temporarily blind people, maps, a lighter, various keys, health packs, extra ammunition, shrapnel ammunition that's just for the Boomstick and can blow up cars, and Linda's Locket, which acts like a good luck charm and has reverted him back to normal from his Deadite Ash State. He also has a military tank, specifically a M41 Walker Bulldog. Armored with welded steep, armed with a 76mm M32A1 rifled cannon (65 rounds), a .30 caliber M1919A4 machine gun (5000 rounds), and a .05 caliber Browning M2 roof-mounted machine gun (2,175 rounds), and can hit stop speeds at 45 mph.

You might be wondering where he carries all this equipment? Well in his car, the Delta. This car can race from 0 to 60 mph in 7.9 seconds, hauls a Trailer with bullet proof windows with his weapons inside and even a motorcycle. The Delta has busted out from underneath the street without even a scratch, has gotten out of more jams than a fist full off lube on a Saturday night, has two built in sawblade arms that pop out of the hood and the trunk has rope, gasoline tanks, 2-liter bottle of Coca-Cola, a red toolbox, chemistry book, hand saw, and shotgun shells. Ash has even modified the Delta to obserd Death Machines like the badass he is. But he also has the Death Coaster, which has a mounted helicopter like propeller on the hood, as well being heavily armored with steel and possibly powered by coal and gasoline.

Remember that demonic hand problem he had? Well before he got sent back in time, he stabbed his hand with a knife and cut it off with a chainsaw like a madman! So he needed a a prosthetic hand, which he got hella created with. He has a modified chainsaw, modified Sapmaster 3000 which has titanium chaining and diamond tipped chains, chain lightning that is capable of cutting through cold steel, modified titanium chainsaw, modified diamond chainsaw, buzzsaw hand, a metal gauntlet that can crush metal with little effort and be shot as a projectile, a cybord hand that has an explosive shell launcher, high powered laser, flamethrower, grappling hook and a force projector. There's also one made from Pablo's handy work with a built in flashlight, laser pointer, and screwdriver, but it was made with cheap parts so it malfunctions sometimes. A future hand with enhanced strength, spatula hand, shaving hand, gatling gun hand, a flamethrower hand that can incinerate Deadites and is fueled by moonshine, grenade launcher hand, harpoon hand, and a puppet of Ash that has a little puppet chainsaw hand. With all these hands, do you think the Nintendo Power Glove is his favorite controller?

Surprisingly, Ash also uses the book that started all this, The Necromancer X-Mortis. He uses the book in battle many times, despite it being Ash's main antagonistic. Also, the book hates Freddy Kreuger more than Ash, so I wonder what Freddy did with it. The book grants it's user ghastly dark powers and the means to destroy all of mankind, acting as a gateway to all that is evil and is capable of summoning demons, resurrection of the dead, and all kinds if magic. It can levitate and sometimes fly, talk with individuals, has control over all undead (unless the source of infection in extraterrestrial in nature), cannot be destroyed by mortal means (only been damaged by weapons like the Kandarian Dagger), and able to unleash a powerful force capable of flinging several people feet away.

We're on the last list of weapons here so sit tight for feats. Ash also has a variety of Kandarian weapons, which damages the Necronomicon but is also some of Ash's strongest weapons. The Kandarian Dagger can cause extreme pain to by just a cut (especially to Demonic foes). The Wrong Book looks like the Necronomicon itself, but when opened it unleashes a miniature blackhole that only Ash has escaped from. A separate Spell Book that is filled with translated spells for Ash to recite for super powers. And a Kandarian Summoning Stone, which is full of unknown powers but is considered almost as powerful as The Necronomicon. Some of the Summoning Stone's powers are known though, being Power Augmentation, time and multidimensional traveling capabilities.

That's it on weapons, but now we have powers. Ash is a superhuman level marksmen, has superhuman strength, speed, reaction time, and durability, a good fast thinker, is extremely cunning and is a decent negotiator, knows martial arts well enough to teach others, is extremely gifted at hand-to-hand combat and is a master of slapstick fighting, isn't afraid to fight dirty, excellent leadership skills, has some toon force (well known for his cartoon-like shenanigans), insane aim accuracy, exorcist experience, when engaged in stealth he quotes (Like a ninja loosing his virginity, quick and discreet), has an incredible tolerance to pain, knows how to speak Japanese and can understand some Spanish, gifted inventor and mechanic, creative one-liners, can somehow leap 7-8 feet in the air without a running start, make love to a woman like no other man, somehow fire guns in space, able to break the forth wall, extremely resourceful of his environment, while in lucid nightmares or dreams he possesses some telekinesis, a heightened resistance of demonic possession, very knowledgeable of chemistry, and can clench his buttocks so hard you can literally crack a walnut in em and this actually somehow play into combat.

One more thing before we get to feats. Lastly there's Deadite Ash, also known as Bad Ash. This Ash acts as a rage mode, doubling Ash's weapon damage, decreases the damage he takes, and increases Ash's physical strength and speed by a great distance. Ash can become this way by a few different ways: by dying, night time arrives, or he absorbs souls of deadites or demons. It can emite electricity, easily rip through Deadites and people, and extreme pain tolerance or even not feeling any pain. As seen with other Deadites, Ash can climb up walls, levitate, shapeshift, and survive being completely dismembered. He'll kill whatever is in his way and the only things that can turn him back is thinking about Linda or the sunrise. And as seen with other Deadites, it's not unreasonable to say that only weapons like the Kendarian Dagger can actually cause him pain. Though it does not mean Deadite Ash is invulnerable to mortal weapons like gubd and knives, but it does mean it's really difficult to put him down for good with a headshot and explosives unlike regular Deadites. And it's also important to note that Ash doesn't really like doing this, for the simple reason that he literally becomes a fucking demon and could easily kill loved ones or innocent lives.

He can cut a large tree down with a single slash, strong enough to punch holes in walls with his metal gauntlet, smashed a human skull into pieces, strong enough to break the hold of Michael Myers and Leatherface who can easily flip cars, pry open bear traps with ease, broke a Human Skeleton Deadite's spine with his knee which requires 3000 newtons of force (equal to being hit by a 500 pound car moving at 30 mph), sent King Author flying with a single punch, strong enough to drive his chainsaw into the hood and engine of The Delta with one arm, easily slash through kegs of beer with his chainsaw, strong enough to lift a 8 to 9 ft tall Demon frog, slammed Baal through a wall, strong enough to hold back the Deadite Force which was strong enough to move taller houses and fling cars 40 feet into the air at least, strong enough to pull himself out of a mini-blackhole, got his shins ripped out and still beat a Deadite to death with a 200 pound rail spite with ease, casually lift and throw people with one arm, shoved a bowling bowl inside a human body through it's neck into its chest cavity, resisted the pull of a portal that sucksd in a car and uprooted a massive tree for a while, crush a Deadite underneath a cello so hard that it's head got sliced into several pieces, constantly shown his strength on pare or greater than Deadites that can punch through metal and burst through concrete walls, strong enough to punt a midget 20 feet into the air, punched Evil Ash so hard his helmet cracked, can lug a sink and a fat person around a house while evading a Deadite, can rip apart human bodies with his bare hands, and even broke Freddy Kreuger's arm.

He's dodged blasts of electricity, can outrun the Deadite Force which is fast enough to catch up to speeding cars, fast enough reflexes to catch a machete thrown by Jason Voorhees, can outrun Leatherface (who can catch up to speeding bullets), quick enough to set off bear traps unscathed, can dodge automatic laser fire from several directions at once, fast enough to create after images, has dodged a barrage of arrows, evated automatic gunfire, dodged flying saw blades and falling bowling balls, acted fast enough to successfully kill a demon that could teleport faster than point blink gunfire, dodged demonic lightning bolts, fast enough to escape the eyesight of 3 people before they could turn around, and is fast enough to keep up with Special Trained Operatives, Deadites, Martial Artists and even Xena Warrior Princess in one on one combat.

He's surviving being smashed through multiple trees one after another, cut off his own hand while laughing, survived having an entire tower collapse on him, shook off a plane crash, can unhook himself from a meat hook and walk it off, his hand replacement can block a running chainsaw, ballsy enough to talk shit to Dr. Doom, survived having an entire hospital fall on top of him, survived ridiculously high falls and got back up like nothing happened, drank a tea kettle of boiling hot water like a bottle of Gatorade, survived being electrocuted by a chair capable of melting skin, took a beating from Jason Voorhees, survived a several story fall and being crushed underneath Kendar the Destroyer while in a tank, constantly tank hits from Deadites, casually walks off being smashed through walls, stabbed himself in the leg with a pencil and began to cut it off, took a hit from the Necronomican, mentally strong enough to overcome mind control, unphazed by a sound wave that was so loud it sent him and several others flying back, and was okay after having his face sliced by the Kandarian Dagger.

He's killed countless of evil creatures, beat the shit out of Freddy Krueger, took victory over Freddy and Jason, defeated Dracula and his minions, defeated Baal in a physical match so bad he had to resort to using his demonic powers and skill got his ass whooped, single handedly defeated armies of Deadites on multiple occasions, raised an army of villagers to fight off a giant horde of Deadites and even trained them martial arts, beat Evil Ash on multiple occasions, beat Ruby in a one on one pretty easily, protected Obama from Deadites, skilled enough to sword duel Evil Ash and a Deadite Knight at the same time while going up against some stairs, defeated Robot Evil Ash who had the Necronomican embedded in his chest, has quite a bit of experience with dead bodies in cellars, killed Kendar (a God-Like demon that is 600 feet tall) with nothing but a tank and the Kandarian Dagger with a few one liners while high on marijuana, accurate enough to impale a fleeing mini Evil Ash with a fork from a distance, shot a crow and Deadites from behind without even looking with his boomstick, was full-on ready to literally fist fight a t-rex, embraced his inner Mad Max and took on The Dark Ones after waking up in the future, many years of experience against countless varieties of foes, used the Kandarian Dagger to cut the face off of the Necronomican, saved Earth and man-kind on several occasions, and has teamed-up with The Punisher, Xena Warrior Princess, Darkman, Danger Girl, and KISS.A

He graduated high school with his highest grades in chemistry and P.E., smart enough to build and improvises weapons from mere junk and scrap, modified many original tools and weapons and vehicles into straight up slaughter machines, tricked highly intelligence demons in simple ways (including the Necronomican), prepared for battle with little to no time at all against armies, smart enough to craft explosives and gun powder, observant enough to tell when a 3 year old is his, predict betrayal and trickery, identify weak spots and tell if a person is a Deadite almost instantly, successfully translated some passages in the Necronomican himself without any prior knowledge on how to do so, banged a chick he met in less than 10 minutes, built a mech suit out of spaceship parts, always manages to find the Necronomican even after traveling to a different universe, ran a successful business and became a local hero in his hometown, and has crafted plans that sound completely ridiculous but actually end up working, like the infamous Pet Tracker Plan.

Though he isn't perfect. His chainsaw has a hour worth of gas and his ammo is limites. He's also pretty selfish and lazy, always chosing the easy way out. He's also clumsy, kind of old, and he's not all there mentally after seeing so many people die and nearly everyone he loves die like his sister, girlfriend, and love interest, and probably from seeing himself die a lot and the whole possession thing. And the Necronomican can easily backfire on Ash if used incorrectly, making it a risky play.

But over the years of dealing with dimensional portals and Deadites, Ash is still going strong and has made friends that he holds special places in his heart. Maybe one day he'll put the Evil Dead finally to rest.

(Cue: Evil Dead 2 Groovy)

## Rick Taylor

(Cue: Splatterhouse - Theme HD Trailer)

Splatterhouse. The nickname given to the West Mansion. It was called Splatterhouse because the rumored, hideous experiments purportedly conducted there by Dr. West, a renowned and missing parapsychologist. The Splatterhouse is filled with ghoulished beings and blood-thirsty monsters, also beings called Corrupted. This is where two university students investigated for a report, because this was the 80's where teenagers like to fuck with rumors related to killers. These students were Jennifer Willis and Rick Taylor.

As a child, Richard "Rick" Taylor sensed the presence of the Corrupted, making it all the harder for him to be courageous. His fears managed to fade when he met his previous mentioned girlfriend, Jennifer, who people deem too good for the geeky metalhead Rick. In his college years, he went with Jennifer to interview Dr. West for parapsychology since they were going to a concert afterwards where Rick would propose to her. However, Dr. West ruined all of Rick's chances by kidnapping her. As he felt his life slip away, knowing that he couldn't stop Dr. West, Rick head the voice of the Terror Mask, which offered Rick the chance to save Jennifer if he put on the mask. The Terror Mask is an ancient relic with unspeakable power, and so Rick could save his life and Jennifer, he put on the Terror Mask. And doing so, the Mask basically injected Rick with his power, turning Rick into a walking hunt of regenerative meat so he could kick Dr. West's ass and save his girlfriend.

This defiantly gave the wimpy Rick into a powerful tank, giving him some useful abilities. Like the mentioned healing factor that lets him regenerate torn off limbs, bones without flesh, holes in his body, and even large chunks of his body taken out. He also has the ability which allows him to absorb blood and use more abilities. This absorption power is called Blood Empowerment.

He has a decent selection of weapons with his times in the Splatterhouse. He has a baseball bat, 2x4, lead pipe, exploding bottles of potion, cinder blocks bones, an axe, his jacked arms, his head, a meat cleaver, machete, sword, hedge clippers, chainsaw, shotgun, ore, spin kicks, jump kicks, low sweeps, and a harpoon.

The abilities he can get from the Blood Empowerment are called Splatter Abilities. There's Splatter Siphon (also called Chestburster) which shoots bone/tendril spikes out of Rick's body that drains blood from enimes, giving Rick large amounts of blood back. Splatter Slash, where bones form on Rick's arms that can cut down enemies. Rick has 2 variants of Splatter Slash. Air Splatter Slash has Rick jump into the air and come back down enemies and Splatter Shredder has Rick run foward, slashing wildly with his bone blades and cutting everything in his path to bits. With Splatter Smash, Rick can summon bone spikes from the ground by slamming his fists onto the ground. Splatter Smash also has 2 variants. Air Splatter Smash which is basically the same move but it causes the ground to shake when Rick lands. And Splatter Ram, where Rick rams into enimies extremely fast. And finally Splatter Kill, a brutality move where Rick can tear apart enimies in a fashionable style.

Then there's a special form called Mutant Rick, also known as Berserker Rick. This is Rick's ultimate form of attack, turning him into a hulking monster. He gets the fullest potential of the Terror Mask and assumes it takes control of this form, utilizing abilities such as Splatter Siphon and Splatter Smash better and countless times. This also gives Rick an insane strength boost. Letting him catch and throw back a meteor at the same speed it came at him and as well as pick up and throw The Overlord, a monster made out of thousands of corpses. Meteors enter the atmosphere at speeds of 25,000 mph to 160,000 mph and Rick was able to react in time and catch it, and the average human body weighs 136 pounds. Going at the minimum number that could be in the Overload, being 1000, then The Overload weighs 68 tons. But if we take the maximum, 9,999 bodies, then Rick lifted 649.935 tons. But Rick needs a certain amount of blood to activate this form.

He can hurt spirits and ghost with his punches, can turn monsters into pools of blood, ripped a room-sized eyeball from a monster's skulls, easily rips and tears aparts monsters with his bare hands, can smash through metal doors and break concrete easily, overpowered and defeated a clone of himself, held off a monster who was the size of a skyscraper which averagely weighs 222,000 tons, squeezed a monster's head like a grape, help up a giant's foot, ripped out a giant eyeball with his bare hands, punched through a chainsaw, and killed a world-destroying entity by ripping out it's heart.

He can leap over tall buildings in a single jump, dodge attacks from monsters and blitzes them, and climb up tall building by jumping in a few seconds.

Rick's regeneration also makes it difficult to kill him. He's survived attacks from groups of monsters, shrugged off a meteor hitting his shoulder, and surviving a fall that lasted a minute.

He has decent intelligence as well. Originally being a college student, recognize the symbols of the Corrupt as a kid, and the Terror Mask has great knowledge about evil spirits, even outside of existence.

He's slaughtered countless mutants, monsters, and demons, stopped the apocalypse, rescued Jennifer on several occasions, defeated clones of himself, and waded through monster-infected dimensions and timelines countless of times.

He does have some weaknesses. His healing factor does have it's limits and can be overwhelmed. He's also mainly a berserker-type fighter, having no strategy besides ripping and tearing, as well as being heavily reliant on the Terror Mask guiding him. And he needs a sufficient amount of blood to use most of his abilities. And lastly, Rick himself is just a regular person and gets his powers from the Terror Mask. Remove the mask, you can easily handle Rick.

Rick was able to save Jennifer from Dr. West though. Then he made a movie about his time in the mansion, get a mansion, and have a son named David. Monsters do try killing him and his family every now and then but when Rick has the Terror Mask, his family is in good hands.

K.O!

Guess no one's gonna save Jennifer. And that's what I call a slasher.

This matchup, while looking possibly one-sided at first glance, was very close when looking deep into it. But Ash had just enough to take this win.

Ash was stong enough to hold back the deadite force which liften cars 40 feat into the air and Rick lifted the skyscraper. But Berserk Mode Rick lifted the Overlord, which could weight up to 649.935 tons. Rick also was able to throw that meteor at the same speed it hit him, being more than Ash's strength pushing back the Deadite Force.

Though speed is an obvious win to Ash. While Rick can climb buildings in a few seconds, Ash has avoided blasts of electricity and demonic lightning bolts, far faster then Rick. Even taking Rick's ability to catch meteor in Berserk Mode, Ash is still faster.

While Ash is quite durable, surviving a hospital falling onto him, Rick is more durable. He's survived the Overlord stomping on him and a meteor crashing onto him, even out of Berserk Mode. Giving Rick the superior durability.

Experience is an obvious one, however. Rick does fight a decent variety of monsters and ghouls and Ash mainly fights Deadites, but Deadites are much stronger then the monsters Rick fights. And Ash has been dealing with Deadites for most of his adult hood and has even dealt with Deadites in 1300 AD. Ash is in his 50's while Rick is in his 20's, giving Ash that age advantage and more time to fight Deadites off.

Intelligence though goes for Ash, if it was just Rick. Rick isn't smarter than Ash but the Terror Mask is smarter. The Terror Mask knows of all evils, even outside of existence, giving the intelligence to Rick.

But arsenal is just as obvious as experience. Sure Rick has all his Blood Empowerment moves and has used a large variety of weapons, Ash has used a bigger selection of weapons and they have far less drawbacks as Rick's Blood Empowerment moves. And Rick's variety of weapons he always gets by shear luck, while all of Ash's arsenal (besides the Necronomicon at times) he has on him weather his person or in his trailer or the Delta, which is a weapon itself with it's own varied arsenal.

Normally this would lead to a tie. But at the end it comes to who has the superior super form and weapons, which goes to Ash. While Berserk Mode and Blood Empowerment attacks are impressive, Ash's boomstick and chainsaws are just as impressive and Deadite Ash is superior to Berserk Mode, being much more useful and far more powerful.

Rick proved to be a formidable foe for Ash, being stronger, more durable, and the Terror Mask having a higher intelligence. But Ash was faster, had a wider arsenal, much more experienced, and the superior arsenal and form that gave Ash the win.

This was a Berserk moment for the two but Ash just left Rick Dead-ite.

The winner is Ash Williams!
