Monster Mash Tournament Round 1: Vampire vs. Rakshasa
Vampire
Today’s vampires are a good bit different than how they have been depicted in legend. The change seemed to have occurred with Anne Rice’s romantic, guilt-ridden vampires and have extended to the current abomination that Twilight gives us, which are hardly vampires at all. Vampires of old are horrific monsters. They have enhanced powers of speed, strength and endurance. They are vicious and hateful, and in a combat situation quite dangerous. These reasons make them favorites to win the monster mash tournament. But how will they stack up against Rakshasas?
Rakshasa
Rakshasas are demons that originate from Hindu mythos. They are shape changers with magical ability that feed on human flesh. They most commonly take the form of humans, dogs, tigers, and birds. They also have the ability to become invisible. Much like vampires, they can’t enter a person’s home unless they are invited. Rakshasas are believed to have been evil humans in previous lives and have the ability to possess people. They have superhuman strength and heightened senses. They also are commonly found in drawings to carry a strange variety of weapons including awkwardly curved bows.
Rakshasa’s may share similarities with Vampires, but can they beat these creatures of the night in head to head combat. They can change shape and possess superhuman strength and may be every bit as vicious as Vampires, but they lack the preternatural speed and agility that make Vampires the perfect hunters and total fighting machines. The verdict - vampires by decapitation.
