While i don't find myself particularly good at them I like to break out a good old fighting game every now and then. Some of my favorites include Primal Rage, Skullgirls and Smash Bros.
So after looking back at a few of them. I.E Killer Instinct, Dead or Alive etc. I thought to myself "Hey. Why don't i see if i can create a roster of my own for the hell of it."
Which leads me to this collection of characters for a what-if fighting game in the Novalla Universe.
The task i set myself was to design 11 characters. each must fit with the Chinese Zodiac theme (The Dog is left out because OFC i wouldn't leave Lydia out of a fighting game so she gets a buy) I also allowed myself to take some liberties by letting myself variants or subspecies of Zodiac animals I.E Lydia being a Ookami (Or Wolf for those not in touch with my lore) is still a type of Dog.
Context for this hypothetical plot:
A fighting tournament is set up by the Ramses and company corperation. The winner not only becomes Vita Nova Island's Novinate Fist Champion but also wins a purse of £10,000,00.
So without further ado. Ive numbered each character (sans Lydia) to go with the descriptions i am about to write.
