Classes:
Spanish
Canoneer: Your traditional and much loved pirate, rough, crude and
violent. He is based off the likes of Jack Sparrow and, well, every other
pirate in popular culture.
Primary: Blunderbuss
Auxiliary: Cannon
Melee: Sword
Monk: There is a rather popular reference to the current pope and
his likeness to the Emperor from Start Wars. Enter the priest, apathetic, cold
and very unpriestly. His main weapon is a repeating crossbow (stolen from the
Chinese) .
Primary: Crossbow
Melee: Big Bible
Auxiliary: Chant Heal
Inquisitor: The Spanish Inquisitor is based off Monty Pythons sketch. He
is larger than life, passionate and generally just wrong. The Inquisitor spawns as a
random object from the environment such as a boulder, barrel, small tree, comfy chair. He may then
move around the level in this disguise, when he chooses the optimal moment he
may burst out with a puff of smoke and screams his line “Nobody expects the
Spanish Inquisition”.
Primary: Pistols
Melee: Torch
Powder Monkey: A young boy who’s job was traditionally to carry gunpowder to the cannon crew aboard a war ship. This particular unit has watched a few too many battles and has obtained a certain blood lust. Based off Warner Brothers’ Yosemite Sam and the helicopter gunner from Full Metal Jacket, he is excessively violent and excitable.
Primary: Gunpowder Grenade
Auxiliary: RMB with grenade plants it as a mine
Auxiliary 2: Supplies Canoneer with powder
Melee: Gunpowder Canister
Sharpshooter: The sharpshooter is actually a Frenchman recruited by the Spanish. Based off the French in Monty Python’s Holy Grail. He is obnoxious, uncouth and just plain rude.
Primary: Sniper Rifle
Melee: Grappling Hook
Aztec
Catapulter: A gentle giant whom has been unwillingly pressed into the
military. The Catapulter is a very remorseful lad who although will carry out
his duty, is really quite sorry for the damage he causes. He has a catapult
mounted on his back which he can use to lob around certain items scattered
around the level.
Primary: Shoulder mounted catapult
Melee: Big rock
Birdman: An Aztec lad who has a slight obsession with becoming air
born. Based somewhat off the actor Jack Black the Birdman is a bit of an
unknown comedian. Somewhat hindering his ability to make flight like a bird is
an unfortunate weight problem, the best he can manage is a short glide from
high places, still this has its uses.
Primary: Spear Throw
Auxiliary: Flight
Melee: Spear Melee
Witch Doctor: The local Shaman is all knowing and wise. Inspiration is a
mix from Bob Marley to the general crazy man that walks past you on the street.
He appears a little lost to everybody but as far as he’s concerned everything
is just fine.
Primary: Poison Frogs
Auxiliary: Healing Frogs
Melee: Sacrificial knife
Panther Warrior: Cool, calm and quick describes the Panther Warrior pretty
succinctly. He is the scout of the Aztec’s and has the speed and agility to
reflect as such. His attitude is similar to that of Terminator or Riddick. His
good, and he knows it.
Primary: Blow darts
Auxiliary: Pounce
Melee: Panther Paws
Warrior: Yet another Monty Python representative, enter the black
knight. He is immune to pain and devoid of reasoning. He is a lean mean killing
machine, and will use your skull as a goblet.
Primary: Bow
Auxiliary: Shield
Melee: Club
