eternity88 Me and my girlfriend were talking about the similarities between anita and merry. Somehow, we got on the subject of a war between the two. So' I'm asking you all, forgetting about the merry world-anita world differences, who do you think would win? There are so many differnat instances in this scenario.... Are we talking 1st book anita to 1st book merry...cuz as your first poster said "faeries are damn hard to kill" Or are we talking about Anita and Merry now? They are both growing in powers and Anita is now this weird super being of doom as well as merry . Are we factoring in Jean Claud's influence? Are there weapons in this scenario? I need some more specifics. There are things that would tip the scales. I want to say Anita...cuz I do like her very much...however Merry is bad a** too...They seem very similar to me though. Their personalities and whatnot. So I don't know. I would love a front row ticket to that fight though. You know what would be even better than them going head to head is what might happen if they team up. that'd be sweetness...but yeah...they can't cross worlds neutral

FenrisVollmond Or, Anita would act fast and put a bullet between Merry's eyes before Merry has time to do anything too harmful... Poor Merry sad Yes but remember that Merry doesn't need to be close to Anita to use her hands of power. In Mistral's kiss she didn't have to be near the beast...yes it helped to be able to see it...but it wasn't necessary...also whoever is in her path would bleed out as well so that would take care of her legions of a** kicking weres etc etc. (Not that I want anything to happen to my beloved Anita characters or anything....the simple fact is thougH I like Anita more than Merry in a war I think Merry and her people would slaughter Anita's. They've been around thousands upon thousands of years ...there is a reason for that smile ) Now ponder this...how would the mother of all darkness fare against the big bad of Merry's world? question I love these ideas...they are so fun to debate. Someone should write a fanfic about it. 4laugh K bye ninja

FenrisVollmond eternity88 FenrisVollmond demonic_eclipse Would they have their men to back them up? With their alliances avalible for call in? Oh, now there's a match up... Goblins vs Wolves/Rats... As for Merry vs Anita... Anita is generally recovering from some kind of wound before she finally gets into a match with the big bad, even if it's just a rough ********, Merry would find the wound, open it, Anita would bleed out... Poor Anita sad Or, Anita would act fast and put a bullet between Merry's eyes before Merry has time to do anything too harmful... Poor Merry sad This is assuming that neither woman could call on her men... If it came to calling in the men... Micah, Jean Claude, Richard, Nathaniel, Asher, Damian and Jason (plus whomever I'm missing) wouldn't stand a cat in hells chance against Merry's men... Doyle alone would slaughter all of 'em before they even got a chance, but you know that Frost would join in anyway. Maybe, but youre forgetting that Anita has hundreds of wolves, dozens of leopards, a hundred rats, lots of vamps, and other lycanthropes under alliance to her. Merry of course has the goblins. So I don't know, its not gonna be an easy battle just looking at the shear numbers. Can you imagine hundreds of wolves engulfting Doyle. You're forgetting that the Sidhe are pretty much invincible 'cept to enchanted weapons (If I remember right, not read a Merry book in awhile).. Doyle and Frost, not to mention the others, are thousands of years old each and trained warriors/bodyguards to boot... No amount of numbers would be able to take those two down. Closest would be the Vampires... but even they, no. They wouldn't stand a chance. If it were just Anita vs Merry, Anita would have a fair chance of surviving.. if the men, and alliances thereof, got involved.. Anita, and all, would die very quickly. ookay so I feel dumb for posting pretty much exactly what you just said here fenris...Next time I'll read all the replies before posting like a loser rolleyes sweatdrop

eternity88 Unlit_Silence eternity88 FenrisVollmond demonic_eclipse Anita: She has guns and death magic. Weres (rats, leopards, wolves, loins) and vampires. And lets not forget Edward! Merry: She has guns as well and hands of power. Host, dimi-fey, sidhe, goblins, and her men. And must not forget Meave. Even. Strengths in diffrent things to diffrent degrees but I think they even out. Just Merry vs Anita.. that'd be even. Counting in their allies, the favour balances towards Merry to a significant degree. why does everyone say that? yea sure merry has a dozen sidhe warriors on her side but with anita being who she is and having the backup she has, i seriously doubt its gonna be just a straight up fight. theres gonna be lots of planning and recon goin on before a bullet is shot. Merry would win then since her backup is immortal while Anita's are not. Stab one of them in the heart with Mortal Dread and they will die from the wound. Thats not truly immortal so Anita stiill has a chance. Ok seriously though what fae is going to let an enemy near their only weakness...they wouldn't get close enough to breath on it let alone wield it against the fae themselves. the only way they would get close to the sword is if they were skewerd upon it.

Thats not truly immortal so Anita stiill has a chance. Mortal Dread is one weapon, possessed by the fae. How would Anita and crew get a hold of it? Now, assuming Anita dipped every single bullet used by her side in their own (mortal) blood, you might have a point. And don't forget, faeries also can't abide the touch of cold iron, which Anita has used against them in the past. Anita has death powers - so does Rhys. Theoretically, as long as Anita stayed alive, she could raise any dead thing in the vicinity to continue the fight. Fae don't have a really excellent weapon against zombies (unless Rhys could mess with them). Merry's Hand of Blood would be the biggest threat. But then again, putting that much blood on the field with vampires and lycanthropes on Anita's side could have some very unexpected consequences - the word 'frenzy' comes to mind. Basically, if it really came down to an all out war between the two, I don't think many would survive. Anita wouldn't go into the fight without thorough planning, but the sheer numbers of the fight would be amazing. If I had to bet, I think Merry would come out the winner. It's just plain simpler to kill Anita's mortals than Merry's fallen gods. Anita hasn't really faced fights in terms of army versus army before; Merry has, and she has done well. Plus, Merry is in a much better place emotionally than Anita is. Ooh, and one last thing I've remembered. Merry wouldn't have to fight at all. She's got... how many fertility lines in her? All she would have to do would be to touch Anita, and Anita's side would turn into a massive orgy. Which Merry's side would probably duplicate happily. Heck, both sides would probably end up just sort of wriggling around naked in the mud together, no death involved whatsoever.

Cat fight: Girl to girl, physical fight... Anita would win.
Magic hissy: Magic to magic... Tie, necromancy vs. life magic so... yeah, because Danu wouldn't interfear....
Allies allowed: All extras allowed to the girls... Merry would win.
...But that's just me, personally.

my first instinct would be to say anita, hands down. but then really thinking about it, i don't know. it would be a pretty fair fight and whoever won would deaserve it.

Well... If you take experience into account,..... Id say that Anita would have a better chance just because she is more level headed in a fight and obviously would be quicker to draw, especially since she understands shes easier to kill. Merry would have a hell of a time figuring out what Anita is and by the time theres iron in her brain, she more than likely wouldnt of thought of her hands of power. This is considering her past fights and how Merry has consistantly been a bit slower to figure out "Oh. Im getting attacked and I have magical powers to attack back with. Imagine that."

In the end, I think the whole thing would turn into a sex party to be honest......

I wonder if Merry could call Anita's ardeur? Since she is descended from so many fertility deities.

mary would win flat out beacuse even though anita has vampires wolves leopards rats and whatever zombies she could raise beforehand merry has all (and thats a lot) of her boys who each has amazingly powerful magic not to mention some of them have the powers of gods and merry incredible powers of her own plus the goblins and the unseelie court although there are some that dont like her they are bound to aid her in her battles
it would be a long bloody battle but yes merry would win
and yes the mass orgy is a MAJOR possibilty if not definite heck if anita wasnt so greedy with her boys they just play boyfriend swap till the cows come home
ooh and secondary idea andais vs belle morte now thats scary!!!!!

the way i see it is that merry's side wins but merry dies.
play out:
anita and edward hunt merry. they shoot her head off before doyle can even blink.
doyle kills edward; anita mind calls Jean-Claude to bring back up quick.
when they get there doyle and rhys kill anita which kills just about every one on her side.
but after that merry's team gets awarded by the council for their deaths and no one is happy
