ENTER THE ARENA!: SO YOU WANT TO BE THE HERO? ROUND 1

Enter The Arena!
Arena Master: Welcome! Welcome Contestant of RMN! I, being a mysteriously handsome arena master will show you my brilliance by creating this very paper that you are reading here. Now, my arena sponsers clean fights, where words can face off against words! Now, for the next few rounds, we shall see whether or not you can be the hero of the ETA cup! For these rounds, we shall look into character development, characterized by stereotypes and ridiculed as old by the masses. Are you ready?

You: Wait, what?! I never meant to come to this section of RMN. Take these handcuffs off, I was just trying to get to the Game Design and Theory forum!

Arena Master: Denied! You must fight to the bitter end! Begin Round 1!
ROUND 1: The Hero vs The Villager!
Arena Master: On my side, we have The mysterious hero, whom may be lacking a past, but still can defeat any bosses that come his way! And on the other side of the arena is a poor villager, normally a NPC due to his peaceful nature, but now has been promoted to a role far greater then before due to the storyline!

You: Why do I get the poor little man wearing peasant clothing while you get that monster in his plate armor and his outrageous cape?!

Arena Master: Dramatics of course! Now to the meat of the fight!
Hero: As his name implies, he is the hero to the story. Normally, this means he is mute, has little to no memory, a swordsman and naive among other things, however this stereotype is exactly what the name implies: a stereotype. It has been broken before time and time again, but let's face it: There is no story without a main character, and normally this is it.
Villager: Normally a NPC, just due to the fact that well... Life is boring and the life of a farmer/hunter/carpenter typically is not the material most look for in their RPGs as a playable character. However, he is a PC in this debate, only due to the fact his plot has elevated him to this role. Expect him to be utterly dismal in battle, but unlike the silent hero, he has skills else where other then fighting.

You: How is this supposed to stack up in my favor at all?!

Arena Master: You have no favor here. Besides that, my hero is in so many stories and does so many things!

You: Yes, but if you look at so many NPCs that the villager has stepped up from, he has a better chance to have a romance that ends well and already belongs to the world. Many times, the hero is more like a anomaly more then not.

Arena Master: *shock* Still the Hero is more useful as a story tool, so he wins!
ROUND 1 WINNER: The Hero!
You: What! You are the judge as well? That is not fair, my villager had a chance!

Arena Master: Really? Why don't you ask the Hero about that?

You: Fine I will!

The Hero: ... *death glare*

You: Nev-ver mind... Um wow, is that sword real? Heh, Good bye!

Arena Master: So what did he say?

You: Oh... Nothing. What about the next round?

Arena Master: *stare* The next round? Very well! The next round will...

You: Yes?!

Arena Master: Be coming soon!

You: No!!! And take these handcuffs already!

Arena Master: Not untill the battle has been fought through! Till next time on the dark back alleys of RMN, Farewell!

You: Let me free!!!!
