I have a suggestion for a hero.
So far a lot of the melee and more brutal heroes are male. (I am not a sexist here at all - don't take me wrong. I don't care if 100% of this game is male characters) But as for a change - and perhaps to add a cool and strong character. A warrior princess could do the trick!
I am of course thinking about Xena.
And honestly I think it would be pretty bad-ass too, if the visual design and weapon perhaps was copied a bit, from the Xena.
I remember the mistress-scream in DK1, kinda did remind me of Xena, so I guess this is why the idea has stayed on my mind for quite a while.
We need heroes and I think it would be awesome having a unit, that doesn't nessicarily have an enourmous amount of abilities, but is just cool to the bone!
I am not good with the game design or functions, however these are the mechanics I have thought about so far:
-----------------------------------------------
Warrior Princess: (Random name generated - but Xena popping up once in a while would be awesome)
Weapons:
2h Sword.
The razer ring (Or whatever it is)
= 1 ranged and 1 melee attack.
Spells:
Speed
Please if some of you guys, who previously did a lot of great suggestions, could add to this, it would be awesome. Personally I'd love to have a Xena - and I personally think it fits very nicely into this universe already.
