Who would you like to see go out in a blaze of gory in PT
« on: May 26, 2018, 06:14:40 AM »
Jim has said that Peace Talks will feature a great deal supernatural violence.  My question isn't about who you want to see die; though you may want that too, it's about who would you like to see go out in a knock down drag out bloody fight to the finish? 

If it's a wizard, perhaps we will see them throw a death curse that unleashes mayhem on their antagonist or antagonists.  I'd like to see a death curse that doesn't have any subtlety to it; unlike Quintus Cassius' curse against Harry or the one Margaret LeFay laid on Lord Raith, something really spectacular and messy, perhaps from the Merlin.

McCoy takes down Lord Raith and gets taken down as consequence.

Arthur Langtry.....  A huge bad ass that I'm not connected to enough to mind him going.

Stole this from Reginald because it was so well put, and is true for me as well.

If you mean Blaze of Glory, then Imma go with Eb. It seems about time for the Mentor figure to die, narrative wise, and Eb deserves a badass ending.

If the title is not a typo and you want a blaze of Gory then...

The Red Cap for being a scum-sucking, self important, evil asshat.
Cowl and Nick for trying to end the world on Multiple Occasions.
Shagnasty for being the most evil being on this list.
Rudolf for being... well Rudolf.
Lord Raith, so I don't have to hear more theories about him coming back even though he was a boring villain

Oh, and Butters.

So much hate :D
One of the senior council. Maybe Langtry or Martha Liberty. I'd like to see them stretch their muscles, and a very nice death curse to slake my thirst for wanton destruction.

As long as she goes out, I think Mira's happy.

You know.  For the sake of the story.

No, I never have...  For the kind of character she has been, better for her to go down fighting as a hero, as hard as it might be
short term for Harry,  than for her to grow older and older while Harry stays more or less in his prime for the next fifty or so years...

Actually I think you want see her go out slowly in humiliating fashion...  Like the sports hero who doesn't know when to retire,  from starter, to sometime pinch hitter, to bench warmer finally demoted down to the minors..

One could ask why do you think it time for Eb or Butters or any of the other regular characters to die?

I wanna see the Blackstaff cut loose. I wanna see him throwing cannon fodder around like a Sith at a padawan store. I want gravity wells that make portal seems simplistic and shotgun blasts of mordite pellets. I wanna see Harry feel like he failed his Grandfather as his death curse crushes a horde of Fomor. I wanna see all that and know it wasn't enough. That the first 15 books were just an opening gambit.

I don't want any characters I like to die.  Those include Eb, and Butters.  Langtry I don't really care if he goes.

Langtry has been a regular horse's ass in the series. But, I feel like he would get taken down later.

But he's a powerful horse's ass who is feared by all. The Council will be that much weaker without him, not to mention they already lost 2 senior council members in the last few years.

Everytime I read "Murphy" I get this picture in my head of Reese Witherspoon in the godawful movie "Hot Pursuit". She was also demoted from 5 ft 2, to 5 ft nothing, to 4 ft 9 through the movie.

Kincaid going down would be fun. Maybe with Murphy taking over potection of Ivy and thus making them both more prominate in the story.

I'd also like to see how Marcone gets along without Gard and Hendricks.

For pure blaziness of the glory killing off Bob would be both wild and painful to read.
