OddHat Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Re: The 300 HERO-fied? The Persian Giant has been posted. http://surbrook.devermore.net/adaptationsmovie/giant_300.html Thanks, Mike. There are some typos in the .hdc file that were fixed in the .rtf file I sent you. Would it be possible to swap out the background text for the fixed version? Here's the corrected text: Background/History: The Persian Giant in Frank Miller's 300 is a terrifying foe even to the butch men of the 300, his incredible size and berserk immunity to pain making him a match even for the greatest of the Spartans, at least face to face on the battle field. He is kept as a slave by the Persian army, unleashed only to do battle. If he ever had any personality before his slavery, it seems gone at this point. He now lives only to kill. His tactics are pretty much close and kill; he can pick up and use weapons or crush a normal man with a single blow. He's tough enough to take a sword through the eye socket (and presumably brain) without slowing down, but is finally killed when his head is lopped off. There are many ways to represent this; I went with armor that doesn't prevent penetration and enough damage reduction that even a sword to the eye is unlikely to stun him. Because his invulnerability reflects mindless rage, he can still be stunned when taken by surprise or when already falling back against multiple attackers. The Giant is huge, scarred, hairless, impossibly ugly, and is kept in chains when not being released to kill.
