Duel to the Death	comment	An affront has been committed! The hero has been affronted. Or the villain has. Or someone has dragged the Damsel in Distress into some dangerous situation against her will. Or someone in the cast hasn't realized that they're in Cloudcuckooland and that it's a serious crime to offer Cheesy Poofs to the daughter of the mayor. Or it's a rival situation and "this town ain't big enough for the both of us." Whatever the situation, sitting down rationally and talking out the differences is just not going to settle things. No, the only way the offended party feels they can have satisfaction is with a Duel to the Death — nothing else will do! So, after striking the offending person upside the head with a glove [horseshoe, brick, or rock optional] to announce your intent, possibly doing so in public, it's time to choose your weapons!

If the Shogun agrees, status, political power or even being a foreign dignitary are no barrier, and the loser will be executed, no questions asked. The Traveler invokes this against Signora to make them answer for their crimes, and is notably one of the rare times The Traveler audibly speaks in cutscenes.

Duel to the Death / int_135f4195	comment	In Dune the Fremen fight duels with their traditional Sandworm-tooth crysknives, that are always to the death. The first time Paul is challenged to one he is reluctant to kill his opponent, which the onlookers initially mistake for "toying with him". He's also used to fighting with Deflector Shields, which require the blade to be slowed down at precisely the right moment in order to pass through the field. Since the Fremen don't use shields (they drive sandworms crazy), they're confused when Paul doesn't strike at Jamis with full force.

The enraged Danceny immediately challenges Valmont to a duel. Valmont is fatally wounded, but as he dies, he passes Merteuil's letters to him on to Danceny and asks him to read and circulate them, thereby destroying the Marquise's reputation.

Duel to the Death / int_1785d9d5	comment	Brother Cadfael In his first appearance, Hugh Beringer challenges the murderer of Nicholas Faintree to one of these. Ostensibly it's a Trial by Combat, to let God favor the combatant who's telling the truth; privately, Hugh needs to kill the man without giving him the chance to testify because shameful information about the brother of Hugh's new Love Interest will be revealed if the culprit speaks in his own defense. Cadfael determines that the death of Godfrey Picard was no murder, but the result of a duel in which he was armed and his opponent fought barehanded. Picard's challenger was Lazarus — once known as the legendary knight Guimar de Massard — whose granddaughter was being abused and sold into an unwanted marriage by her uncle and aunt the Picards. As such, Cadfael and Beringer see no need to charge Lazarus with a crime.

The dual is fought using slingshots but is interrupted by a group of Kouretes, so no one actually dies. When captured by the Kouretes, the group is given the option that one of them fight the Dead Man in a duel to the death to win all of their freedom. Moreby is very confident that whoever fights will lose, as that's what always happens. Hasan kills the Dead Man, but, predictably, Moreby does not keep his promise of letting them go.

Duel to the Death / int_1aacbbc9	comment	Dragon Age: In Dragon Age: Origins, the player character can be challenged to a one-on-one duel by a knight who believes they are responsible for the death of the king. The player can agree to fight him fairly, send their entire party after him, talk him out of the fight, or force the fight to a draw by retreating into the market, causing the knight to call off the fight and swear vengeance later. You also get to fight Loghain in a duel to the death, though you can choose a champion in that duel. In Dragon Age II, if you have Fenris in your party and/or if Isabela comes back at the end of chapter 2 you get the option to resolve the qunari uprising by fighting the Arishok alone in a duel to the death. (Whether or not you'll want to is another question entirely.)

Duel to the Death / int_1bdeba5a	comment	X-Men: In the first appearance of the Morlocks in Uncanny X-Men, Callisto's battle with Storm was supposed to be this. (Callisto even threw Storm a dagger so they could do it right.) Storm ultimately won, Callisto surviving due to quick action by the Morlock's Healer, but this meant Storm was able to seize leadership of the Morlocks from her. (Technically; she would rarely enforce this, but it did end the crisis.) Ritualized in the form of the Crucible in X-Men: The Krakoan Age. Depowered mutants who want their powers restored by dying and being revived can petition to face off against Apocalypse in a ceremonial duel that ends in their death. Whilst the Crucible disturbs many mutants, it was instigated as a way to provide some outlet for the large numbers of former-mutants desperate to have their powers back, without interfering too much with the project to revive all of the mutants slain by human bigots before the founding of Krakoa.

Duel to the Death / int_1cc09117	comment	There are a lot of these in Bleach but one instance stands out where Ichigo is fighting a Battle in the Center of the Mind with his Hollow self in order to gain control over its power. During the battle, Ichigo struggles to find the resolve to gain a killer instinct that desires to seek battle and crush his enemies, and as a result, his Hollow forces visions of past warriors Ichigo has defeated as tests for him to overcome this issue. The climax of this inner struggle comes when Ichigo faces Kenpachi who Ichigo claims that they settled things from their last battle now that they're friends, but Kenpachi claims that nothing about a battle is settled until one side is dead. Kenpachi further clarifies that if Ichigo desires power then it is inevitable that he seek out battle and not shy away from it, that men like them were born to love fighting and to continue fighting in order to gain more power. Basically Kenpachi speaks of a spirited warrior who craves battles to the death.

Duel to the Death / int_1cf9029e	comment	The DEATH BATTLE! web series takes two similar characters and pit them against each other, analyzing their respective strengths and weaknesses to see who would win a... Duel to the Death. Indeed, the rules stated say that it is necessary for the loser to be killed, and should the character have any pacifist qualities that would prevent the situation, those are removed and not alluded to in the dialogue. There has been only one subversion in the entire series: Deadpool vs Pinkie Pie ends with the two becoming friends and deciding to have a party in Ponyville instead of killing each other because their Medium Awareness allows them to break the fourth wall and the rules of Death Battle.

The larger, younger Norseman splinters all three of his opponent's shields and appears to be on the verge of victory. The smaller Norseman, however, isn't as weak or exhausted as he let on, and immediately decapitates the larger man. The ruse was all part of a ploy to intimidate the heroes' enemy with their strength and cunning.

What follows is a long battle between two individuals who have been built up as absolute masters of their trade, with the author using extraordinary detail in describing each action and how it weighs on the course of the overall battle. During which, the focus periodically shifts to individuals working around the duel and trying to turn it to the advantage of their respective army. By the end of the duel, both of them are so badly wounded that they need to be dragged off by their allies.

In Season 3 thanks to the machinations of Malcolm Merlyn, Oliver Queen is forced to challenge Ra's al Ghul, leader of the League of Assassins and one of the most dangerous men in the world. Malcolm is actually trying to engineer Ra's death rather than Oliver's (though the latter probably wouldn't bother him much) but Ra's easily defeats Oliver and throws him off the mountaintop. When Oliver turns out to be Not Quite Dead, Ra's is impressed enough to name Oliver his successor, leading to their second duel in the season finale where Oliver does a lot better thanks to being instructed in swordfighting by Malcolm. The following season Oliver challenges Malcolm, but rather than break his Thou Shalt Not Kill rule he cuts off Malcolm's hand instead, deposing him as Ra's.

Duel to the Death / int_247422c7	comment	The fourth novel of the Honor Harrington series goes as far as to allude to it in the title, Field of Dishonor. Dueling is legal in the Star Kingdom of Manticore and tends to be used by the aristocracy more often than the commoners. On Grayson, a steadholder accused of a major crime can demand a trial by combat against the Protector's Champion. In Field Of Dishonor, Honor has to duel with a professional duelist, who killed her lover in a duel to goad her into challenging him. He assumed that, as a Naval officer, she wouldn't have the same level of skill with the chemical-propellant handguns that are used in duels as he does. Unfortunately for him, her uncle's involvement in the Beowulf Society for Creative Anachronism made her very familiar with such guns, and her genetic enhancements and cybernetic eye have sharpened her hand-eye co-ordination to the point that she can and does simply shoot from the hip. It's not a duel but an execution: she hits her opponent four times before he can even raise his gun, gives him a second to realize he's been beaten, then kills him instantly with a fifth shot between his eyes. At the end of Field of Dishonor, Honor duels Pavel Young, the cowardly and amoral aristocrat who hired the previous duelist. He's so terrified that he turns and fires early... but fails to kill Honor. He's promptly splattered by both Honor and the Marshal of the Field. She is later heavily criticized by aristocrats for, in their opinion, shooting an unarmed man (he had expended all his ammo by that point), conveniently ignoring that the moment he violated the rules of the duel, his life was legally forfeit. Even if Honor hadn't fired, the Marshal would still have killed him on the spot. In Flag in Exile, Honor is forced to engage in a sword duel against a Grayson Steadholder when she's already badly injured from a shuttlecraft crash. Despite his greater experience in swordsmanship, she cuts him down with ease - he had the mindset of a sport fencer, not a hardened killer like Honor, and wasn't mentally prepared for a battle to the death. It should be noted that Grayson swordsmanship is of the Single-Stroke Battle variety since it's based entirely around the movie Seven Samurai. It's mentioned that there are two protocols for duels on Manticore. In the "Dreyfus Protocol", death is possible but not given; one party can declare that honor is satisfied after the first exchange of shots, whether the shots do damage or not. In the "Ellington Protocol", both parties can keep firing until the other goes down. It's implied that the former type is not always fatal, while the latter nearly always is.

Duel to the Death / int_261c8d3f	comment	In The Simpsons episode "E-I-E-I-(Annoyed Grunt)", Homer goes around slapping people with his glove and challenging them to a duel. Nobody accepts the challenge, so Homer keeps doing it just for the hell of it. Soon enough, someone (a Southern Gentleman, natch) accepts, so Homer skips town with the family, thus starting the main story. After that runs its course and the Simpsons return, Homer asks why they ever left in the first place. Sure enough, the man is still there, waiting to duel. During the same episode, Homer runs into Jimmy Carter. The encounter swiftly goes sour thanks to Homer's rudeness, and Jimmy Carter tries to challenge Homer to a duel. Homer freaks out and drives away before Carter can slap him with a glove.

Duel to the Death / int_29a74397	comment	Played with in the Corridor Digital work To The Death. A student at a futuristic Laser Sword school is being tested for graduation by dueling a teacher. The Combat Commentator says that the student will need to kill his opponent in order to graduate. However whenever one of the combatants is killed, a medical device is wheeled out that heals their injuries and revives, either bringing them Back from the Dead or, at the very least, from the brink of death. The student is healed/revived four ways throughout the video, and possibly more that weren't shown before finally overcoming the teacher, who is also revived.

Duel to the Death / int_2ba48a26	comment	Deconstructed in a Castle episode, where the victim of the week was found with a musket ball in his chest. Of course, Castle immediately spun off a theory about a time-traveling pirate. When the apparent murder weapon, an antique pistol, was found, Beckett and Castle proceeded to test it at the firing range, before realizing that there's no way to hit a specific target at range with it (even steadying the weapon and using a laser sight). It turns out that the victim and his friend specifically used two antique pistols to settle their dispute because they didn't want to hurt each other but wanted to keep their honor (they were steampunk LARPers). Unfortunately, a rival of the victim's found out and shot him with a shotgun loaded with a musket ball from the same set. The inaccuracy of dueling pistols was grossly exaggerated for that episode. The reason that specially crafted sets of weapons were used for duels is that they were carefully engineered to be as accurate as possible, and the majority of 19th Century dueling pistols could put a half-dozen shots in a three-inch ring at 20 paces. Doesn't keep that montage from being hilarious though.

Duel to the Death / int_41b0198a	comment	The Dresden Files: Harry Dresden was once formally challenged to a duel under the Unseelie Accords (something like the supernatural equivalent of the U.N.) by a duke of the Red Court. It was decided that it would be a duel of wills, whereby a ball of matter from outside of reality would be encased in a spell that reacted to willpower and each of the two would have to try to force it against the other. Harry ultimately won by summoning Heroic Willpower after the vampire threatened that his friends would be murdered if he won (although the vampire did try to cheat by drawing a gun when it became apparent he would lose). The vampire wasn't killed (as he fled the duel) but Ebenezer McCoy saw to that. Using a disused Soviet satellite. Harry himself later challenges the Duke's widow, Arianna Ortega, to a more traditional Wizard Duel To The Death in Changes. In White Night, Harry and fellow Warden Carlos Ramirez challenge White Court vampires Madrigal Raith and Vittorio Malvora to a two-on-two duel in front of practically the entire White Court due to a string of serial murders of weaker magically-talented humans, in an effort to prove how weak the White Council of Wizards was. Since this is on the tail end of the two vampires trying to claim that the string of murders was their idea (instead of them stealing the thunder from another vampire noble house), the White King pretty much forces them to go along with the challenge, telling them they have to deal with the consequences of their actions. Harry and Ramirez proceed to kick some incubus ass.

Duel to the Death / int_49ad83ee	comment	World of Warcraft has the "mak'gora", a formal, honor-bound duel of orc tradition. In the original, traditional method, each duelist is permitted one weapon blessed by a shaman and no armor, but it's mostly up to the two duelists over what rules there will be. The mak'gora is often used to challenge the current Warchief, with the victor taking the mantle. During Thrall's reign, the mak'gora wasn't fought to the death, but Garrosh re-established the rule "Lok'tar Ogar", Victory or Death. There have been many notable mak'goras throughout history: Orgrim Doomhammer challenging the Warchief Blackhand in the first Warcraft game. After learning how Blackhand was a pawn to Gul'dan, Orgrim challenged Blackhand and killed him, becoming the new Warchief. Garrosh challenges Thrall after the events on Outland over Thrall's tolerance with the Alliance. The duel was never finished since the Scourge attacked Ogrimmar during their battle. Cairne challenges Garrosh for what he believes to be a betrayal on Garrosh's part(actually manipulation from the Twilight's Hammer cult). While it doesn't happen in-game it's widely referenced in-game. Garrosh's weapon was poisoned by an Evil Chancellor without his knowledge, so Cairne was paralyzed as soon as Garrosh barely scratched him. He was then killed by Garrosh. It was believed by many, Garrosh included, that Cairne would have won the duel had he not be betrayed so. During War Crimes, which chronicles Garrosh Hellscream's trial after he goes off the deep end and is subsequently defeated by the Alliance and a Horde uprising, Saurfang, a seasoned orc veteran, expresses distaste that Hellscream is being tried by foreigners in a foreign land and that if it were up to him, he would have challenged Hellscream to a mak'gora. Saurfang, despite his age, would most likely have won this duel easily. In Warlords of Draenor, Thrall challenges Garrosh. Garrosh gains the upper hand at first, but then Thrall unleashes his shaman magic. Thrall wins, and Garrosh loses his life. This has consequences in Legion. Because of everything Garrosh did since Thrall put him in control of the Horde, Thrall suffered a great deal of emotional turmoil after all was said and done. So much so that he lost his connection to the elements and so lost his shamanistic powers. In Battle for Azeroth, Varok Saurfang challenges Sylvanas Windrunner after she proves how monstrous she's become and what direction she was taking the Horde. Sylvanas dominates the fight, but Varok manages to scratch her face while declaring she's a failure who will never break the Horde. This leads to a Villainous Breakdown where she angrily declares the Horde is nothing to her, which instantly turns everyone including the Forsaken against her. Realizing what she said, she finishes off Varok with a blast of dark magic before fleeing.

The duel was the end result of eight years of hatred and resentment, in which both men finally let out their rage on each other. The battle itself was for the most part even, but Suzaku stunned Lelouch with a Wham Line towards the end that essentially sapped his opponent of his will to fight, and would've killed him had it not been for Kallen. Suzaku's declaration at the end during their escape makes it quite clear that any battle between them in the future will also be this.

She also recounts how Gramps (who also worked there, but not as a performer) and a clown named Roscoe both courted her, which culminated in Gramps slapping Roscoe and challenging him to a duel (which was, of course, illegal). Roscoe, as the challenged, had the right to choose the weapon... and chose pies, with someone promptly going to a nearby bakery and coming back with two banana cream pies for them to use. Despite losing the duel, Gramps came out on top in the long run, as he was physically unharmed (though his pride was somewhat wounded), and Gran decided he was the bear she wanted to marry.

King Jon had to make a declaration that Alanna is not allowed to issue challenges, otherwise she'd be forever beating up knights who don't think women should fight with swords, and while challenges of honor are still quite common when there's a tournament going on, fights to the death are verboten—instead it's a best-of-three joust. This doesn't stop one knight from trying to spit Keladry in a joust, but rather than call it off as a foul (which would be allowed and justified), Kel opts to finish the joust and unhorses him.

Duel to the Death / int_5755b96a	comment	The Order of the Stick features Roy versus Thog in the Empire of Blood's arena. Roy doesn't initially intend on the "to the death" part — he expects the fight to be called after he knocks Thog down. Unfortunately, he breaks Thog's tooth, which gives the barbarian a rage-enhanced second wind, allowing him to get back up and eventually get the upper hand. Roy tries again to defy this trope, this time by surrendering, but Thog isn't having it and continues to wail on Roy with obviously lethal intent. Roy eventually wins by tricking Thog into collapsing the entire arena on top of himself, resulting in his death.note Technically, we never see Thog's body, but he hasn't shown up since, and the story has since progressed well past the point where his return would make sense, so it's pretty likely that his death was genuine.

Duel to the Death / int_605dd875	comment	Stargate: Surprisingly, there are several in Stargate SG-1. After finding out that La RÃ©sistance leader K'tano is actually a minor Goa'uld named Imhotep, Teal'c challenges him to a duel. However, instead of traditional Jaffa weapons, they use wooden training staffs in the shape of the staff weapons. When K'tano is about to finish Teal'c off after breaking his staff in two, Teal'c uses a broken piece of the staff to impale K'tano as he lunges for the killing blow. Later on, Cameron Mitchell engages in several sword duels with holographic knights. He wins one by beating the knight. The other one can't be beaten normally and almost kills Cameron, but Daniel ends up shooting the holo-projector. Also, Cameron is captured by a secretive tribe of Jaffa, who have developed their own form of martial arts. As Cameron is accused of killing one of their tribesman (the guy is actually alive at SGC), he is told that he will be executed by allowing a family member of the deceased to fight him. Being fair, they send one of their own to teach Cameron their martial art. When it comes time for the duel, Cam finds out that his teacher is the brother of the "deceased" and his opponent. Despite his military training and the new skills, the brother easily beats Cam and pretends to kill him. The audiodrama First Prime has Teal'c being forced to fight in a duel with Sebe't, a former friend and the new First Prime of Apophis. Sebe't uses a device called "altir", which is a pair of orbs that are typically attached to the temples of gladiators that allow them to scan each other's surface thoughts and which can be used to deliver electrical shocks to the wearer. Sebe't is able to use the device to outmaneuver Teal'c and beat the crap out of him, so Teal'c flees and uses "kelno'reem" to hide his thoughts. At the end, he uses the "altir" to show Sebe't the truth about his wife Li'tel's death: her death wasn't an accident, she jumped off a bridge after Apophis forced her to be his mistress and then discarded her. Teal'c witnessed it but was ordered to lie to Sebe't. Sebe't renounces Apophis and is killed when an electric shock is delivered through the device. In Stargate Atlantis, John Sheppard finally kills off Acastus Kolya with a quick draw, after Kolya refuses to surrender.

Duel to the Death / int_70814599	comment	Surprisingly, there are several in Stargate SG-1. After finding out that La RÃ©sistance leader K'tano is actually a minor Goa'uld named Imhotep, Teal'c challenges him to a duel. However, instead of traditional Jaffa weapons, they use wooden training staffs in the shape of the staff weapons. When K'tano is about to finish Teal'c off after breaking his staff in two, Teal'c uses a broken piece of the staff to impale K'tano as he lunges for the killing blow. Later on, Cameron Mitchell engages in several sword duels with holographic knights. He wins one by beating the knight. The other one can't be beaten normally and almost kills Cameron, but Daniel ends up shooting the holo-projector. Also, Cameron is captured by a secretive tribe of Jaffa, who have developed their own form of martial arts. As Cameron is accused of killing one of their tribesman (the guy is actually alive at SGC), he is told that he will be executed by allowing a family member of the deceased to fight him. Being fair, they send one of their own to teach Cameron their martial art. When it comes time for the duel, Cam finds out that his teacher is the brother of the "deceased" and his opponent. Despite his military training and the new skills, the brother easily beats Cam and pretends to kill him. The audiodrama First Prime has Teal'c being forced to fight in a duel with Sebe't, a former friend and the new First Prime of Apophis. Sebe't uses a device called "altir", which is a pair of orbs that are typically attached to the temples of gladiators that allow them to scan each other's surface thoughts and which can be used to deliver electrical shocks to the wearer. Sebe't is able to use the device to outmaneuver Teal'c and beat the crap out of him, so Teal'c flees and uses "kelno'reem" to hide his thoughts. At the end, he uses the "altir" to show Sebe't the truth about his wife Li'tel's death: her death wasn't an accident, she jumped off a bridge after Apophis forced her to be his mistress and then discarded her. Teal'c witnessed it but was ordered to lie to Sebe't. Sebe't renounces Apophis and is killed when an electric shock is delivered through the device.

Not necessarily an automatic Duel to the Death, but given that Firebenders are temperamental and frequently portrayed as aggressive, arrogant, and violent... Zuko vs. Fire Lord Ozai - how Zuko got his scar. Rare occasion of a villain showing mercy... but not really, given what comes after. Zuko vs. Zhao: Zuko wins, but refuses the Kill Shot. Zhao, disgusted at being defeated by someone he considers inferior, attempts to take a kill shot on Zuko, but Iroh steps in and shoves him across the arena with a casual flick of the wrist. Zuko vs. Azula: Azula wins, but only by cheating. And both Zuko and Katara show her mercy, even though she's gone nuts by this point. Ozai vs. Aang: Ozai plans to kill Aang. Aang knows he's supposed to kill Ozai, but he finds another way. After a fashion, the Earthbender battle arena also counts, but death is not intentionally a consideration, as it's done for showmanship and entertainment.

Then he gives the coat to his sworn brother, Martok. Quark participates in no less than two of these, although neither ends in death. The first time, he is temporarily in charge of a Klingon noble House and attempts to prove that the head of another House has been attempting to destroy "his" House through financial means (a big no-no in Klingon society). The other Klingon challenges him to a duel in response, figuring the weak Ferengi will be easy to beat. However, Quark drops his bat'leth at the start of the fight, refusing to participate in this farce. When the other Klingon tries to strike him down anyway, Gowron intervenes, having seen proof of the other Klingon's dishonor, and praises Quark's bravery. Later, an aide to his Klingon lover challenges Quark. Quark wins by using Worf to remotely control his body. Quark/Worf knocks the other Klingon down but spares him. Quark's lover declares honor satisfied and dismisses the other Klingon from her employ.

Duel to the Death / int_75149ccd	comment	Starfighters of Adumar: Dueling is a big part of Adumari (well, really Cartannese) culture, so naturally it comes up a lot. And, in Cartann at least, every single duel is or can be to the death. It starts with starfighter dueling - naturally, the New Republic contingent refuses to do it - and goes from there. One main character attempts Suicide by Duel Opponent; another steps in to fight the guy who would've killed her (but not before using his blastsword to draw a stick figure of a man with a tiny head to taunt his opponent) but doesn't kill, preferring to punch him within an inch of unconsciousness, and then slap him. Heck, it's considered romantic to give someone else the choice of life or death after winning a duel! (The other nations are, mercifully, less insane than Cartann. Their duels aren't deadly.)

Paul Atreides kills Jamis of Sietch Tabr to earn himself and his mother a place among the Fremen. Much later, the film climaxes in a knife fight between Paul and Feyd-Ruatha. Dune (2021): The dueling tradition of the nobles appears, this time using one-handed single-edge short swords (they resemble machetes). Paul Atreides acts as Jessica's champion when Jamis challenges Stilgar over accepting them into Sietch Tabr, quickly proving the more skilled fighter, but is taken aback when Jamis refuses to yield with Chani's borrowed crysknife at his neck; he is then told that there is no yielding under the Fremen amtal rule. After the second time, Stilgar wonders aloud to Jessica if Paul is toying with him; Jessica informs him that Paul has never killed anyone before. The third time, Paul stabs and kills Jamis. Dune: Part Two: Feyd-Rautha offers himself to be the champion for the Emperor. They duel with knives as the tradition says, and both end up impaling the other, with Feyd dying from the stomach wound provoked by Paul, while Paul barely escapes with a serious wound in the right shoulder.

Barin, the leader of a local tribe, whom Ming wants to marry Aura (despite both being unwilling) happens upon Flash and Aura. Right at this moment, Ming walks in and sees the three of them. Gleefully, he forces them both to publicly duel to the death for Aura's hand using poisoned flail-like weapons. The problem is that Barin is a warrior and has been trained to use the weapon, while Flash is a marathon runner from Earth with few hand-to-hand combat skills. Quickly disarming Flash, Barin prepares to finish him off, but can't. Instead, he throws the weapon at Ming, who goes down from the poison. Aura then reveals that she has replaced the poison in the weapons with a fast-acting sedative meant to simulate death and that Ming will be very angry when he wakes up.

Duel to the Death / int_7ac9ac71	comment	Alexis Carew brings up the existence of duels in Privateer. First mentioned during the landholders' meeting when Edmon Coalson, head of a rival family to the Carews and whom Alexis once poured a pot of tea on when an attempt to court her went awry, is set to speak against amending inheritance laws to allow female heirs. Bracing for an Ad Hominem attack against Alexis's Royal Navy career regarding The Mutiny on HMS Hermionenote Alexis was being victimized by a horrendously sexist and abusive captain who ultimately stripped her of her commission and flogged her for refusing an illegal order. The enlisted crew, who liked her, mutinied over it and defected to Hanover. Alexis broke out of prison with the enlisted men and rescued the other officers, including Captain Neals, who accused them all of mutiny when they got to safety. After Hermione's log was provided by Hanover under flag of truce, she and the sailors were acquitted and she restored to her former rank (then promoted to lieutenant), while Neals was placed on indefinite medical leave. The entire proceeding was placed under a judicial gag order, but rumor got out anyway., Denholm suggests he might challenge Edmon. Alexis thinks to herself that Denholm will have to get in line. Instead Edmon surprises everyone by announcing he's in favor of the measure. Later, a dispute between a gathering of privateers erupts after the situation inside of a hard-to-access star system turns out to be different than Alexis expected. One of the other captains insults Alexis and she challenges him. She puts her sword through his face, but he survives and she can't bring herself to deliver a Coup de GrÃ¢ce.

By Earth-19 law, someone can challenge a Collector (like Gypsy) to a duel. It's only after Cisco challenges Gypsy that he's told that the duel is to the death. Unlike him, Gypsy has full control of her powers (identical to his), while he still needs his glasses and amplifier gloves. He also has very little combat experience, while she is a highly-trained officer of the law. However, Julian manages to analyze a video of their initial fight and determines that Gypsy has a predictable vulnerability. During the duel, they engage in some dimension-hopping, before Gypsy prepares to use her special move. Cisco remembers the vulnerability and manages to catch Gypsy off-guard, knocking her to the ground and hurts her a little, before sparing her life in exchange for H.R.'s. Oh, and they start dating later.

As for Klint, he wrote his will directly before said duel and wrote that he did not deserve an honorable death like this anymore. The autopsy report of Klint notes the lack of wounds on his body aside from the fatal stab to the heart, so it is all but stated that Klint merely stood there and let himself be killed in a sort of Suicide by Cop.

In a twist, Tasha does kill Yareena, but then Dr. Crusher revives her after Yareena's been officially dead long enough to nullify her marriage to her jerkass husband. Klingons, unsurprisingly, have more than one dueling protocol. After Duras kills K'Ehleyr, Worf's lover, Worf storms onto his ship and kills him in the Rite of Vengeance.

Star Trek: Enterprise expands the Andorian culture into Romanticism incarnate, to contrast them with their Enlightenment Vulcan rivals. No surprise that Archer eventually has to duel his frenemy Shran, although the Andorian dueling code is so complex they're able to find an acceptable way to avoid an actual killing. Star Trek: Picard: This is an ancient Romulan custom which is still practiced on the cusp of the 25th century as a nod to their roots as a Proud Warrior Race. Tenqem challenges Picard to a Sword Fight with the intent of killing him, and it's a long-standing tradition for a Zhat Vash and a Qowat Milat to fight each other to the death in unarmed combat.

Personal insults can be washed off with an apology, but that relies on at least one party being willing to back off and admit to being in the wrong. Failing that, insulted or contesting Kzin will seek satisfaction through a duel to the death, and announce their intent to do this through a scream of rage and a leap to the jugular. Historically, this has served as their main method of population control — as population density rises, insults become increasingly more likely to occur, and duels rise in frequency until total numbers have dropped to a stabler level.

Given the scenario was All Just a Dream from Barbara, it was more-or-less her interpretation of what she thought Bruce would do.

Duel to the Death / int_90e2f673	comment	A deeply rooted part of Clan warrior culture in the BattleTech universe. Not only is it fairly common to settle disagreements with duels (not always to the death, but few Clanners blink an eye if it happens as long as nobody cheated), but it also constitutes the appeals process in the courts, is essential to the promotion process, and is mandatory to participate in the political process, where earning the right to vote requires you to be the winner of a 24-man dueling tournament. The attitude goes so far that ganging up on a single enemy in actual combat is considered a breach of the rules of warfare, to the point where an odd man out will wait until his comrade is killed, and then engage the now "free" enemy. In essence, a properly fought Clan v Clan war is the sum total of numerous individual duels. The Inner Sphere, being the Inner Sphere, exploited this mercilessly and tended to manage to win fights where they were technologically outmatched by fighting completely unfairly when the Clans expected fair fights. This can also happen when two Solaris gladiators decide the galaxy isn't big enough for the two of them. Duels are technically not allowed, but if someone has a "friendly" 1-vs-1 with an opponent who refuses to eject and whose cockpit takes a stray laser beam... that is just a tragic accident.

As such, duels (of the quick draw variety) are a common way of settling disputes, and there are professional duelists frequently hired by businessmen to remove rivals and conduct hostile takeovers. Quinn is challenged by one but drops his gun, refusing to participate. Not being a complete monster, the professional duelist can't bring himself to shoot an unarmed man.

Duel to the Death / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: This is actively encouraged among Orc tribes as part of the Klingon Promotion to become chief. This isn't primarily due to evil ambition, though. Orcs are encouraged to kill their chieftain if he is too old or too weak to continue to lead, thus ensuring that whoever leads is stronger than the leader he replaces and strong enough to lead the tribe. Minotaurs have a primitive clan-like social structure along these lines. Typically living in groups numbering in the twenties, Minotaur clans are led by the strongest male who has breeding rights with all females of reproductive age. Younger males may attempt to challenge him for the position via such a duel. In Morrowind, the Vivec Arena is used for settling matters of honor rather than prizefighting (as it is in Oblivion). Completing the main quest and rising to the top of each non-mutually-exclusive Guild and Faction requires fighting in no fewer than four such duels, with several others optional (and not always lethal). Other quests involve NPCs fighting there as well. In the backstory of Redguard, the hero, Cyrus, slew his brother-in-law, Hakan, in a duel after Hakan drunkenly struck Cyrus' sister Iszara. Though such duels are a perfectly legitimate means to settle disputes in Redguard society, Cyrus is the son of a prominent Crown (a conservative Redguard political party with ties to old Yokudan nobility) while Hakan is one of the leaders of the Forebears (a more progressive Redguard political party with ties to the "Warrior Wave" of Redguards who first settled Hammerfell and made it safe for the rest of the Yokudans to settle there). The Crowns and Forebears are violently opposed, and Hakan marrying Iszara was an Arranged Marriage to hopefully bring peace. Thus, Cyrus was forced to flee, becoming a pirate. The ancient Yokudan (Precursors of the Redguards) Master Swordsman Frandar Hunding had participated in 90 duels by the time he was 30, never once having been defeated. This led him to believe that he was invincible, causing him to retire to Mount Hattu where he would write the Book of Circles to pass along his insights. Also from the backstory, King Joile of Daggerfall convinced Gaiden Shinji, the legendary Redguard hero and leader of the Order of Diagna, to join him in the Siege of Orsinium (the home city-state/fortress of the Orcs). Joile then convinced Shinji, the Blademaster and founder of the Imperial City Arena, to participate in a Combat by Champion-style Duel To The Death against the Orc leader, Baloth Bloodtusk. As Shinji and Baloth were fighting, Joile ordered his archers to open fire on both of them, killing them both. As it turned out, Joile not only wanted to sack Orsinium but planned to invade Hammerfell after and knew that Shinji would have been a major obstacle. (Joile would get his comeuppance, dying during what would be a failed invasion of Hammerfell.) Another backstory example is Pelinal Whitestrake, the legendary 1st Era hero of mankind/racist berserker. Pelinal came to St. Alessia to serve as her divine champion in the war against the Ayleids. Pelinal would fly into fits of Unstoppable Rage (mostly directed at the Ayleids) during which he would be stained with their blood and left so much carnage in his wake that Kyne, one of the Divines, would have to send in her rain to cleanse Ayleid forts and village before they could be used by Alessia's forces. When dealing with Ayleid lords, however, Pelinal liked to challenge them to individual combat and then mercilessly slaughter them. At the end of the war, he battled the Ayleid leader, Umaril the Unfeathered, in this fashion. He defeated, but could not kill, Umaril who had divine protection from the Daedric Prince Meridia. Umaril's minions then cut the wounded Pelinal into eight pieces as a mockery of the Eight Divines.

Duel to the Death / int_9d47a2a2	comment	A Song of Ice and Fire features a number of "trials by combat" in which people are challenged to a duel in answer for their perceived crimes or to settle a dispute. Each of the Tales of Dunk and Egg ends with a duel as well. The laws allow for the trial by combat to be fought by a champion on behalf of the accuser/accused, the reasoning being that the gods will not allow the innocent party to lose. However, the fact that all the trials by combat involve each party trying to get the most dangerous warriors they can find to do the fighting and are often unsatisfied by the outcome, it is clear that nobody really believes the gods have any say in it. Exploiting the trope, Ax-Crazy King Joffrey is found of ordering people who come to him seeking arbitration to fight to the death to resolve the matter. This and the other cruelties he calls justice don't do much to improve the public's opinion of him.

The conflict escalated to the point of a death match on the barren island of Punk Hazard, lasting ten days and permanently altering the climate of the island, making one half a frozen wasteland, the other half permanently on fire. In the end, the winner was Akainu, but, in a rare moment of sympathy, spared Aokiji's life, and the latter proceeded to ditch the marines, not wanting to serve under Akainu.

Duel to the Death / int_b1c94339	comment	Horatio Hornblower: "Hornblower and the Even Chance", one of the stories in Mr. Midshipman Hornblower, features a subversion. Hornblower knew that his opponent was both a better shot and a better swordsman (and being somewhat suicidal at the time), Hornblower chose to have a 50-50 chance duel. Two pistols, one of which was loaded, chosen by duellists at random. He was perfectly happy to kill his opponent, in fact that was the whole point of challenging him to a duel to begin with, but he would have counted being fatally shot as a win too. The captain ensured that neither of the pistols was loaded, however, causing the duel to be declared null and void, and arranged for Hornblower to get a position on another, better, ship. It was played differently in the Mini Series adaptation. (See the Live-Action TV section for details.) During Hornblower and the Atropos, a Jerkass pearl-diving master named McCullum duels Eisenbess, the pompous minister to the exiled Prince of Seitz-Bunau (currently a midshipman). This is a problem, as diving for lost British gold is the Atropos' entire mission. When Hornblower visits the wounded McCullum and the man continues to insult with every other word, Hornblower wonders how the man has "lived for so long without previously being shot in a duel."

Duel to the Death / int_b30ae4db	comment	Game of Thrones: Of course. Subverted by the duel between Ned Stark and Jaime Lannister which, after five episodes of hype, is interrupted before either party can gain any real advantage and both men survive. The duel between Syrio Forel and Ser Meryn Trant is left as a Bolivian Army Cliffhanger, prompting wild mass guessing based on Never Found the Body even though the victor reappears unharmed later. Drogo engages in one with Mago when his leadership is called into question. He rips Mago's throat out bare-handed but takes a sword wound that becomes infected, killing him. Jorah Mormont gets into an impromptu one when Drogo's bloodrider Qotho attempts to intervene in Mirri Maz Duur's blood magic. He wins handily, because he's wearing a suit of armor and Qotho isn't: he traps Qotho's khopesh under his arm and skewers him with his longsword. Qhorin Halfhand starts one with Jon Snow as part of a Heroic Sacrifice to install Jon as a Fake Defector. Westeros accepts Trial by Combat as a legitimate form of justice. The Hound is subjected to it in Season 3 and Tyrion elects Combat by Champion in both Season 1 and Season 4. Daario Naharis stands as Daenerys' champion against the champion of Meereen.

Duel to the Death / int_b7b5e290	comment	The Deryni series is set in a medieval counterpart of England with all the trappings of the Age of Chivalry, so duels to the death play roles in several books: There are no fewer than three such duels at the coronation of King Kelson, in the climax of Deryni Rising. First Kelson's champion Alaric Morgan fights Charissa's champion Lord Ian Howell. Then Kelson's mother Jehana fights a duel of improvised magic with Charissa herself. Finally, Kelson and Charissa face off in a formal Duel Arcane, magic against magic. The backstory of Deryni Rising contains still another Duel Arcane: when Kelson's father King Brion Haldane faced and defeated Charissa's father, Hogan Gwernach, in a battlefield duel to settle Gwernach's invasion of Gwynedd. In Camber of Culdi, Cinhil Haldane fights magical duels arcane against Father Humphrey of Gallareaux and the usurper king Imre of Festil. In Saint Camber, Alister Cullen faces Ariella Festil in a battlefield duel. In King Javan's Year, a conventional duel of honor, using mortal weapons, pits Earl Hrorik Claibourne against Regent for Life Earl Murdoch of Carthane.

Duel to the Death / int_bcadd7cb	comment	Warhammer 40,000. Common among the Imperium, Chaos, and Dark Eldar and extremely common, if informal, among the Orks. "Informal" in this case roughly translates to "only when shooting them in the back with your favourite gun doesn't kill them instantly". This was given an explicit rule, "Challenge", in Sixth edition: if two squads each have an upgraded/attached unit such as a sergeant, or if one squad is an independent character all on their own, then when they close for melee combat the attackers can issue a challenge to the defenders. If the challenge is accepted, each duelist can ONLY affect the other (useful when one tends to make a lot of attacks per round and could wipe out a squad); if rejected, the defending champion can't take part in that round of combat (still potentially useful, in cases where one unit can't take out the attacking character but the whole squad can). Lucius the Eternal tends to only fight to his full ability when he's called one of these. With a sword and whip. Likely against someone with a big gun.

Duel to the Death / int_bff01809	comment	Warhammer isn't too far behind, with Empire, Dark Elves, Orcs, Chaos, and Ogres all engaging in this to some extent. Ogres in particularly are big believers in it; leadership of a tribe only changes with the death of the current Tyrant. Sometimes this is of fairly natural causes (the legendary Tyrant Olflab Stonecruncher Fatgut Deathcheater choking to death on his great-grandson's skull after ruling for over 90 years, for example). Most commonly, a "guts out pit-fight", where two ogres fight to the death with their bare hands and the winner eats the loser, is what determines a change of power. They also combine this with an Eating Contest; the winner gets to eat the loser. The ogres will gladly take similar challenges from non-ogres, except trolls, whose Hollywood Acid digestive system is a Game-Breaker even by ogre standards. This is half of Wulfrik the Wanderer's shtick, going around challenging people whose head the Chaos gods want on a stick (read: important units the player wants dead but are safely hidden behind bodyguards). The other half is his Gift of Tongues, which allows him to speak every single language there is and ensure the challenge is unrefusable, because it takes the form of a long string of unsubtle insults that enrage the target into accepting the challenge even if it's an obviously stupid idea (such as leaving the walls of a fortress to ride out and fight him).

The cutscene shows a duel either using swords or pistols. Interestingly, the duel is not always lethal, meaning both characters can survive with their honor satisfied. The cutscene will then show both characters walking past each other (one of them bandaged), nodding in respect. The intro to Total War: Shogun 2 shows a Combat by Champion between a samurai from an army besieging a city with the city's champion. The invading samurai wins. As he walks away towards his general triumphantly, he falls dead revealing that his back is now a pincushion from arrows fired by the city's defenders. Cue his general sounding a charge to the walls in anger.

The manga and Toei anime had different varieties of games, usually with lethal results.

Gul'dan also loses a lot of points with the Horde when he "wins" a mak'gora by draining the life out of his opponent with fel magic (using magic in a mak'gora is considered cheating).

There are two particular examples in the canon: he is shot in the chest by Cannings in a formal duel, and while he only aims to injure, due to his injured hands shoots him in the throat and kills him instead. In Sydney, he fights a soldier who insults him. Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin nearly duel in the second book of the series. In fact they nearly duel in the first book. It's how they met. They also nearly "go out" for a duel again later in the series. Captain Aubrey, iron man of the Royal Navy, victor of many battles, fierce battler of many boardings, is sure that Maturin will slaughter him.

Duel to the Death / int_ee5e6821	comment	John Finnemore's Souvenir Programme: Series 1, Episode 2 had Voltaire, Voltaire's friend Guy de Lombard the finest swordsman in Paris, and a man who didn't believe Voltaire would really fight to the death for the right to say something he disagreed with. When de Lombard challenges this man to a duel for insulting Voltaire, Voltaire says he must fight to the death for the man's right to say Voltaire wouldn't fight to the death. When de Lombard says this is stupid, Voltaire agrees and backs down. Realising this makes the other man right, de Lombard then challenges Voltaire, who realises there is now nothing he can say that doesn't lead to him having a swordfight with de Lombard, which he'll lose. At his funeral, the priest comments that the final irony is that Voltaire never actually said that anyway. In the Storyteller sketch in Series 4, Episode 1, Finnemore recounts an altercation between two of his fellow clubmen in which he unwisely inserted himself, resulting in the world's first triangular duel, as Sir Winnersh Stopdolphin challenged Lord Scoby for sleeping with his wife, Scoby challenged Finnemore for suggesting only a coward would refuse such a challenge, and Finnemore challenged Sir Winnersh for calling him the worst shot in the club. And then the other two resolved their differences just before it started, and when Finnemore protested, they both took aim at him. But first he got them to pose for a photograph; the same trick Sir Winnersh used to shoot three tigers with the same bullet.

After Kenshin prevents an assassination, he tries to put Kenshin in a situation where he HAS to kill him in order to save Kaoru, but when it doesn't work and he's left defeated but alive, he simply commits Sepukku, all while stating that he's going to watch Kenshin from hell to see him kill someone.

Deuteragonist Lady Adele Mundy was trained as a duelist by her politician father to ward off such challenges due to the rough-and-tumble nature of Cinnabar politics. Notably she killed her first duel opponent by accident, however: she meant to only wound him but was using an unfamiliar weapon and blew his brains out instead. She also remarks once that if she ever comes face to face with Daniel Leary's father Corder Leary, the man who ordered her entire family executed for treason, she'll just skip the formality of a duel and kill him on sight. Daniel himself nearly challenged her early in the first book over a perceived insult, though his manservant Hogg talked him out of it. Had he not, it would have been a very short book.

Duel to the Death / int_f10a65b	comment	Legends of Tomorrow The team travels to The Wild West to hide from the Time Masters but happens upon a gang terrorizing a town. They manage to capture the leader of the gang, but the gang takes one of theirs prisoner as well. Jonah Hex suggests someone duel the gang leader at high noon. Ray, having been named the town sheriff, volunteers, despite having no experience with a revolver, but Rip decides to go himself, being a crack shot (and his own blaster is even shaped like a revolver). Rip ends up winning, and the remaining members of the gang release Jefferson and flee the town, abiding by the terms of the duel. Earlier, Ray, Kendra, and Sara are accidentally left behind in 1958. After a while, Sara leaves the couple and goes to Nanda Parbat to (re)join the League of Assassins. By the time the rest of the team return, Sara's mind has mostly forgotten her origins, and she has become a true member of the League. An attempt to rescue her goes awry, and everyone is captured. Knowing the rules of the League, Rip challenges Ra's al Ghul to a duel for the fate of the prisoners. Presumably, Rip has no intention of actually killing Ra's decades before his fated death at Oliver's hands, but he probably assumes that Ra's can be healed in the Lazarus Pit. However, unknown to Rip, both he and Ra's are able to choose a challenger to take their place. Ra's chooses Sara. Reworking his plan, Rip chooses Kendra, Sara's friend and frequent sparring partner, hoping that Kendra can reach Sara during the fight. It works. Sara bests Kendra but snaps back before dealing the killing blow. Then Chronos attacks, and the duel is forgotten. In Season 2, the enmity between Damien Darhk and Malcolm Merlyn reaches a boiling point, and they decide to settle their dispute "League-style". What follows is a vicious sword fight, but the opponents are evenly matched, and their prisoner (an amnesiac Rip) convinces them that they're better off putting their differences aside in order to force Eobard Thawne to treat them as equals.

Duel to the Death / int_f23a9d88	comment	Legacy of ch'Rihan: Morgan t'Thavrau's Number Two Sarsachen tr'Sauringar has a Dueling Scar from where another Romulan Republic officer took offense at him having served in the Federation Starfleet. He came away needing some stitches but put the other man in the hospital. In "Heis'he Ri'nanovai" he's shown practicing swordwork with Morgan. Sienov Mnheisahein's title literally means "Sword of Honor" in Rihan. When a Watraii nobleman challenges Jaleh Khoroushi to a duel in hopes of breaking up a planned peace deal between the Watraii, the Federation, and the Republic, Morgan exploits a loophole in the Watraii dueling code to sub in as Jaleh's second since the Starfleet exchange officer has no experience whatsoever with swords. She badly wounds her opponent and forces him to yield; otherwise she was prepared to behead him.

Duel to the Death / int_f2fd0d0b	comment	Fate/Nuovo Guerra has developed a system allowing for "Servant Skirmishes", i.e. battles where it's possible for both combatants to get out alive, and "Servant Duels", which are this trope. The former allows for typical Play-by-Post Game free-form roleplaying, while the latter uses a dice to determine the winner while minimizing accusations of God Modding.

Count Dracula gains it in the pages of Dracula Lives!, and has to duel for it again near the end of the original run of The Tomb of Dracula after losing it due to being temporally turned into human.

Duel to the Death / int_f5c28dbb	comment	In 1632, a bar fight nearly turns into a duel, until MacKay is informed that dueling is illegal in Grantville. In a separate incident, Tom Simpson states that if challenged to a duel, his weapon of choice would be the 10-pound sledgehammer, the announcement of which probably guaranteed that he would never be challenged to a duel.

Duel to the Death / int_f74b5f80	comment	Babylon 5: Londo is mentioned to have been a member of a dueling fraternity. He gets into a duel to the death in the second season episode Knives, though it's more a Suicide by Cop gambit by his opponent to save his family from being tainted by a charge of treason. Minbari duel with hollow metal quarterstaffs(probably sharpened at the edges). As a duel is presumably consensual it is considered by them to be "suicide" and hence it is not Minbari killing Minbari. The most dramatic example of this is Marcus dueling Neroon, to prevent the latter from assassinating Delenn. Marcus loses, but he gets better.

Duel to the Death / int_f9742e61	comment	In the Dragonriders of Pern series, dueling for honor is frowned on but permitted, and such duels can go to the death. Since there are no firearms, all duels are with blades, usually the "belt knives" that most Pernese men (and even some women) carry. In Dragonflight, Lessa manipulates the dragonrider F'lar into a death-duel with the corrupt Lord Fax, since Fax murdered Lessa's entire family. In Dragonquest, Oldtimer T'ron challenges F'lar at a particularly bad time. T'ron clearly intends to kill F'lar, but F'lar can only fight to wound his opponent. T'ron is a fellow dragonrider, and killing him means killing his dragon too — something F'lar absolutely will not do. In The White Dragon, Oldtimer T'kul arranges a situation where he challenges F'lar to a duel — right after T'kul's dragon Salth has died, so T'kul is not only taller and stronger, but also Ax-Crazy after the death of his dragon. Averted later in The White Dragon: Holder Toric of Southern casually insults both Lord Jaxom and his Hold of Ruatha. Jaxom is about to challenge over the insult when Lessa and F'lar (the two most powerful people on Pern) enter the argument and force Toric to back down. At the end of The Renegades of Pern, Jayge fights Big Bad Thella to the death. He foiled her plans more than once, while she killed his uncle and tried to kill his wife and kids, so neither one is holding back.

Duel to the Death / int_ff9ab17f	comment	Star Trek: The Next Generation: Tasha Yar's duel with Yareena in "Code of Honor". In a twist, Tasha does kill Yareena, but then Dr. Crusher revives her after Yareena's been officially dead long enough to nullify her marriage to her jerkass husband. Klingons, unsurprisingly, have more than one dueling protocol. After Duras kills K'Ehleyr, Worf's lover, Worf storms onto his ship and kills him in the Rite of Vengeance. This also happens to resolve the Empire's Succession Crisis and puts Gowron in the top spot.
