Weaponlord (sometimes WeaponLord) is a 1- or 2-player Fighting Game originally designed for release on the Super Nintendo by Visual Concepts, and published by Namco. During the inception of the title, the development team also began work on a Sega Mega Drive/Genesis version and both were released in October 1995. Weaponlord introduced many groundbreaking gameplay aspects that appear regularly today. In fact, James "DJames" Goddard, one of the driving forces behind the game's creation and a former game designer for Street Fighter II, believes that his weapons-based fighter helped inspire Namco's Soul series. Also, unlike other titles, Weaponlord was not intended to replicate an arcade fighter, but built from the ground up on home consoles. This was a reverse of the normal trend, which had arcade versions being developed first, then getting ported to home consoles.On a battlefield a demon spirit enters the body of a dying mercenary. He is reborn and defeats twenty rulers in bloody combat. He goes on to found the reign of the DemonLord Raith. At the height of his power, his doom is foretold by a blind shaman: "When the night turns violent and the moon bleeds, gripped by the skeletal fingers of death...a child will rise to face the demon in combat...and the lord of demons will fall by the hand of...the WeaponLord."Against the advice of his lieutenants to kill the children born that night, the DemonLord waits to face his foretold killer in fair, one on one combat. Years later the demon Zarak overthrows Raith and becomes the new DemonLord. 25 years after the prophecy was made, Zarak holds a great tournament of champion warriors. The winner will face the demon in a final battle. The DemonLord prepares to meet his destiny head on and to destroy the WeaponLord.If one wishes to see a few minor details of the game and the process of how it even got to where it is, game developer James Goddard has his own website with a description about the game, a few videos showing features the game had, a few drawings and even a link to the full promotional video.

Some Dexterity Required
 Weaponlord (Video Game) / int_273b4c2a
comment
Lots of Dexterity Required: There are several moves each character has that use very unusual motions in order to perform certain special moves, and many of them require the player to hold a button down and then release after the command is input (known as negative edge) to perform it. More generally, this game offers nothing to button-mashers — either you will learn how to time and execute your character's moves or you will suck and die.

Disappeared Dad: Jen-Tai's dad was presumed killed in battle, and his broadsword delivered to her. Her dialogue before fighting Zarak expands on this by explaining that Zarak killed her father in an honorable duel. After lamenting the loss of a powerful ally and an excellent foe, he decided to make Jen-Tai a new Arena Queen. He even delivered the sword to her for that reason.

Statuesque Stunner: While Jen-Tai's impressive height can be inferred from a comparison to that of Zarak's (see One Head Taller above), if the sprites are meant to be an accurate depiction of the characters' sizes, Talazia and Divada are no less Amazonian in stature. (Yes, in that sense, too.)

Honor Before Reason: The previous Demon Lord, Raith, believed in following the warrior's code above all else even if it didn't seem practical. Zarak felt that was an old-fashioned way of thinking and killed him for it, but seem to start believing that he should follow it after the men he sent to ambush the Tarok were all killed by Bane.

It's a Wonderful Failure: If the player is killed during Story Mode, it has a quote about the kill-or-be-killed way of life barbarians have. If the player loses with Zarak, however, a longer page appears, blaming the player's total ineptitude for Zarak's death and generally mocking the player's skill.

Villain Respect: Zarak is contemptuous of all of the champions except for Jen-Tai, who previously served him in the arenas. At the beginning of Zarak's Story Mode, he laments having to kill "sweetest Jen-Tai" along with the other challengers. Before the final battle of Jen-Tai's Story Mode, Zarak takes care to explain that he is only fighting her because she's in his way (as the last remaining WeaponLord candidate). Compare this with Zarak's pre-fight dialog with the other champions, where he derides their foolish quests for power and/or revenge.

Sequel Hook

Sequel Hook: Zorn's endings shows that an evil spirit is imprisoned within his own shield and uses its dark magic to revive the DemonLord Raith. Likewise Jen-Tai's ending suggests that Raith is still alive. However, Weaponlord 2 never came to pass. Goddard has expressed interest in making a Weaponlord sequel, but lacks the funding/support to do so.

Noble Demon: Raith is an evil demon, but he is also a thoroughly honorable one. Rather than leave himself open to a Nice Job Breaking It, Herod, he decides to instead wait out the prophecy and face the WeaponLord in a fair one-on-one duel, even going as far as organizing a grand tournament of all the fighters who were born under the Warrior's Moon. He doesn't live long enough to complete this plan as he is murdered by his son Zarak, who considered Raith's warrior code too old-fashioned.

Self-Made Orphan: Divada killed her own father and all her brothers in order to inherit a magical heirloom which would give her power. Zarak murdered his father, the previous Demon Lord, in battle to prove that the latter's methods were too old-fashioned to work, though he later grew to respect them.

Leaving You to Find Myself: A familial example is used in Bane's Story Mode ending, as Korr has just found (and realized) that Bane was actually his long-lost brother KÓ“ng. Believing that KÓ“ng no longer exists and would be marked for death if he were, Bane states that he must leave again to find his soul.

comment
Tribal Face Paint: Korr's face paint comes from a Tarok Rite of Passage that marked him as an adult, and thus able to take the life of an enemy. When his brother, KÓ“ng, was about to get his, marauders under the orders of Zarak ambushed the tribe and made off with the boy. When Korr found the last known location of the Marauders, the blood on the floor made Korr assume that his brother possibly murdered his captors, thus breaking an ancient taboo the face paint was meant to uphold. The breaking of this taboo is punishable by death.

Korr is haunted by that fact that he not only killed his own brother, but Bane — for reasons Korr will never know — chose not to reveal his identity when the two fought.

He chose to ignore his counsel's advice and wait a quarter of a century for them to mature in body, mind, and spirit, so he could fight them at their strongest.

Developer's Foresight: Since the game was being developed for online back in 1990s via XBAND, the game is full of moments of this. For example, foreseeing that cross-up attacks would be hard to defend against in a laggy environment, the team added a technique called "Vertical Thrust Blocking" to counter cross-ups.

Barbarian Hero: All the characters have a "barbarian" aesthetic, with many of the characters actually being barbarians to boot. As noted by Hardcore Gaming 101, the game's cover art◊ (drawn by Simon Bisley) is even based on certain◊ illustrations◊ by famed fantasy artist Frank Frazetta, known for drawing a character frequently held up as the Barbarian Hero. note Bisley has stated that he's drawn inspiration from the works of both Frazetta and Robert E. Howard. He's also known for his contributions to magazines such as 2000 AD and Heavy Metal, including artist duties for another barbarian fantasy in the form of Sláine.

Animal Motifs

comment
Animal Motifs: Talazia wears a headdress in the shape of a falcon's beak, Bane dons the skin of a wolf, Jen-Tai's ancestral helmet sports horns like those of a ram, and Zarak's helmet and armor resemble a spider. Bonus points in that Talazia actually is a falcon, Bane howls like a wolf in celebration of a victory, Jen-Tai's style of combat has her buck at her opponents with an upward swipe of her head, and Zarak has his unique Fatality mentioned above.

Clothing Damage

Clothing Damage: A very primitive form of this was present as hair-cutting, where the player could use a combo to cut the player's head (such as cutting off Korr or Divada's ponytails or one of Jen-Tai's horns).

You Will Be Spared
 Weaponlord (Video Game) / int_f39d7dbc
comment
You Will Be Spared: A less villainous example with Jen-Tai, who rarely killed her foes in the arena, preferring to let them learn so they can face her again. Doing this in Story Mode (as any of the characters) will force you to re-fight everyone you spared before the final battle with the Big Bad.

Heavy Mithril: The game's aesthetic. Everything looks like it stepped off a fantasy-themed heavy metal album cover, and it is awesome.

You Killed My Father

comment
You Killed My Father: Subverted with Jen-Tai. When she learns that Zarak killed her father, she is sad but not vengeful, as she knows that her father fought a fair duel with Zarak and therefore died with honor. She still wants to kill Zarak, but simply out of a desire to prove that the strength of her bloodline is greater than any demon.
