Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict/Characters


The following characters are located in other pages:


Anubis

Anubis: The only thing I ever feared was what I saw in your heart. I tested you. And you failed.
Selket: I failed? You were the one who turned tail and ran.

Anubis: Your power-mad family arranged our marriage. But I didn't cared about that. I loved you. I left the Tournament to see what you wanted more: an emperor, or a husband.
To Selket near the end of the Ascension Rites.

The main character of Unreal Championship 2, Anubis is a prince of the illustrios Reydi family, whose ancestors include 14 former Nakhti Emperors. Favored to win the tournament ten years ago, Anubis left on the eve of the competition. Some say he was a coward; others speculate that political scheming forced him from the tournament. He has served in the Desert Legion for over a decade, honing his combat skills and revealing none of his secrets.

In the game, he signs up for the Ascension Rites (now sponsored by the Liandri Corporation) with his friend Sobek, in order to stop Selket from becoming the Empress and thus condemning the Nakhti citizens to slavery in the hands of the Liandri Corporation.


Tropes related to him:

  • An Offer You Can't Refuse: Subverted. In the finals' aftermath, a Liandri officer convinces him to both resurrect Selket via the highly expendable Necrification process and to fight in the main Tournament.

Liandri officer: It needn't end this way. She needn't end this way. Not even the Nakhti emperor can afford the Necris process.
Anubis: But you could... is that what you mean?
Liandri officer: Exactly. You keep winning, we keep paying.
Anubis: A Deal with the Devil.

"Your power-mad family arranged our marriage. But I didn't cared about that. I loved you. I left the Tournament to see what you wanted more: an emperor, or a husband."

"I've failed you once before, forefathers. Forgive me. But do not forgive their sacrilege. I will make you proud."

"I was here to stop her, not to win. And now I've lost everything."

  • Screw the Money, I Have Rules: A variant. Before the quarterfinals, he's offered to join Thunder Crash, thus avoiding all the posterior drama, something he rejects because of his own mission. He ends subverting this in the end.
  • Secret Character: Beat the Ascension Rites to unlock both him and his Ladder.
  • Status Buff: His "Warrior Spirit" adrenaline combo, combined with X-Ray Vision.

Selket

"The crown isn't meant for cowards, and neither am I."

Voiced by: Stephanie Young


Tropes related to her:

  • Battle Couple: With Apophis, though we never fight with or against both of them at the same time.

Robot commentator: Of course, all eyes are on the central arena, where Selket and her partner Apophis are punishing their opponents. Let's get back to the action.

Sobek

Sobek: Another crap patrol for the best of the Imperial Legion.
Anubis: I have friends in higher places.

Sobek: Yeah, the kind of friends who put scorpions in your boots.

Tropes related to him:

Sobek: That was fun. Bots make for good target practice.
Anubis: I look forward to thanking the Liandri personally.
Sobek: Your funeral.

Apophis

Voiced by: Jim Foronda

Selket's new boyfriend, he's the scion of a powerful royal family. He's idolized throughout the land for his sports talents, not to mention his jawdropping beauty. His good looks are so heavily insured that the underwriting company requires him to wear a full-face helmet in the tournament.


Tropes related to him:

Anubis: Speaking of settling... how is Selket?
Apophis: (to the Guards) GET HIM! RIP HIM APART!

Szalor and Torgr

"We subjugate all inferior races, not just humans."
To Malcolm in the pre-match intro to "Lambs To The Slaughter".

Voiced by: Ric Spiegel (Szalor)


Tropes related to them:

Malcolm: Some would say it's unwise to meet a Skaarj warrior in a game they invented.
Szalor: It is always unwise to fight a Skaarj warrior.

"Fight with honor!"

Raptor and Devastation

Voiced by: Stephanie Young (Devastation)


Tropes related to them:

Liandri advertisement announcer: She's so smart, and so durable, that we even entered her in the grand Tournament. Household chores will never be the same.

Raiden

"I seek warriors, not cowards."
One of his taunts
