DM Intro: Krampus vs Jack Skellington

Sonic.exe: Christmas, something as old as time itself.

Johnny Petersen: While these days the holiday has been sacked by consumerism and all that other crap, these guys try their best to convey their true meaning. 

Sonic.exe: Jack Skelllington, the mayor of Halloween Town.

JP: And Krampus, the shadow of St Nick himself

Sonic.exe: He's Johnny and i'm Sonic.exe, and it's our job to answer a simple locker room question, if Skellington can take Kampus in a fight, who would win?



"PETER" KRAMPUS
Height: Interpretations vary from 7-10 ft, sometimes taller
Weight: Unknown 

FEATS
-Is the Evil version of Santa
-Has punished millions of Children, Men, Women, and more
-For years the Krampus worked as an underling to Santa, punishing the naughty children
-Serves to warn the world what happens if hope and belief is lost
-Can clear out entire towns/cities in single nights 

Sonic.exe: Born out of Pagan myth and worshiped by ancient Germanic cultures far before the time of Christ, Krampus is a monstrous goat demon sent forth to help Santa punish the naughty children.

JP: This guy is pretty much Lucifer if he was drunk on eggnog

Sonic.exe: Watch where your going with that, pal.

JP: Sorry. This guy is not only badass, but like Exe said, he was doing what he does best before Christ came around, and even made his rounds in Hollywood.


PHYSICALITY
STRENGTH
-Above human levels of strength
-Can lift small children and full grown men with ease
-Can tear apart children to eat them
-Can break through walls 
-Can rip apart metal trucks and bust in car windows 
SPEED AND AGILITY
-Has powerful goat legs putting him above human in speed
-Can make long leaps across streets and on the roofs of houses
-Can move even faster then a goat, to some becoming a blur 
DURABILITY
-Over his life has likely encountered some family/children that have fought back
    -Which means he's likely been Shot, Stabbed, Bludgeoned, and etc.
-No notable Durability feats that aren't assumptions 
-Can survive in extremely low temperatures

Sonic.exe: This guy is super strong, strong enough to rip a god-dammed SUV to shreds, crack through walls, and rip children and adults alike to shreds.

JP: His goat legs allow him to keep up with people, including some of the fastest runners of our time, including Usain Bolt, who currently sets the record for the fastest sprint. Sometimes he breaks Usain's record by moving so fast, that he practically becomes a red blur of chains and hooves. 

Sonic.exe: He's also stupidly tough, having been stabbed, shot, smashed and god knows what else, and has survived in temperatures that have reached absolute zero.  


SKILLS AND ABILITIES
Body Manipulation
-Can elongate his limbs and grow in size
-Also very flexible 
    -Even his larger versions can fit down the chimney
World Manipulation
-When his punishment is invoked, the Krampus will pretty much take over a large area around one location
-Can manipulate the weather 
    -Usually creates heavy fog and violent blizzards
    -Can even put the temperature below 0
-Can turn inanimate objects (Toys, Ornaments, and Cookies) into vicious monsters which he controls
-Can create monsters of his own, such as beasts that thrive under the snow
    -Even has an army of his own personal elf monsters which he uses to capture prey 
Demonic Powers 
-Can open portals to hell
-Can also create portals that trap people in a Snowglobe, where they will spend the rest of their life in a Christmas Purgatory
Possibly Cryokinesis
-As shown by his ability to start blizzards and lower the tempertures 

Sonic.exe: Not only is Krampus flexible and is able to elongate his limbs into inhuman lengths, but this guy can summon a giant snowstorm that can bring about sub zero temps and a monstrously heavy fog to keep his visage hidden, Slenderman style.

JP: Krampus can also bring toys, cookies, hell, even ornaments to life and bastardize them into his minions, like this one.



Sonic.exe: What the mother hell is that?! 

JP: Der Klown. 

Sonic.exe: OOOHHHHH, now you tell me. He also can open portals to either hell, or a christmas dimension, depending on how merciful he is.

JP: Plus he's got his elves to help him, should the gloves come off.

WEAPONS
Birch Switches
-A large amount of birch twigs wrapped together
-Used to smack and whip bad children
Whip
-A leather whip used to punish bad children
Chains 
-Seems to have a hammer space of chains
-Has several rusty chains with him, usually wrapped around him
-Used to restrain, and punish
-Several bells are attached to the chains
-The chains also tend to have large hooks on the ends 
Basket
-Used to store the children he kidnaps
-Seems to have it's own pocket dimension
-Possible where he stores his weapons 
Pitchfork
-A large three pronged spear
Natural Weapons
-Sharp teeth
-Sharp claws
-Long horns perfect for impaling
-Powerful jaw to eat his victims
-Hooves could be used to trample foes
-Has an extremely long tongue that he can use to grab his foes
Sonic.exe: This guy also has a small army's worth of weapons, from switches, to chains to a basket.

JP: Not only that, but this guy is a weapon in it of himself.

Sonic.exe: True, while Krampus is a walking armory, his claws are sharp enough to cut down flesh, and his teeth put Fredbear to shame. 
Personality
-Ruthless but fair
    -Will only punish children based on how naughty Santa has deemed them
    -However he cares little about if his actions have changed his preys hearts, he will punish them all the same
-Sadistic and Violent
    -Will slowly pick off groups of people he is targeting
    -Has been known to eat his victims
    -Will always leave one person (usually a child) as a warning for what happens when hope and belief is lost
-Surprisingly cunning
    -Will play into the weaknesses of his prey, and will form his beastly minions accordingly 

JP: This guy also must've taken psychology, because he is a cunning bastard, who is also nut chilling ruthless once he's on the job. He's also not too picky when it comes to killing. For all his faults however, this guy is weak to fire, and is a frutaholic, plus, he really isn't the sort of guy who thinks about his own weaknesses. 

Sonic.exe: Still, he's a tough bastard, not as tough as our next fighter though.


Weaknesses
For some reason only invades houses through the Chimney
Fire
-The one way to stop him from entering the chimney
-Likely weak to it given he's a winter based creature, and also a hairy goat monster
Fruit
-If a child gives him a fruit, he will
    -Stop what he was doing to eat it
    -Share it with anyone around 
    -And will then leave
Doesn't usually fight unless his minions aren't doing the trick
While Sadistic, leaving behind someone to know of your weaknesses and abilities is a pretty stupid idea

JP: He also ganked christmas, saved Halloween Town TWICE! and even kicked Oogie Boogie's ass when he was at full power.

Skills/abilities: 


Undead Skeleton body:

- Electricity can restore his health
- Neigh immortality
- If thrown into acid, he’ll just turn into a puddle-like blob and be able to reform back to normal later.
- Can use his skeleton finger tips to slash at targets like claws

JP: Since Jack here is a skeleton, he can do all types of stuff, like remove his body parts and put them back together, can no sell fire, and slash at enemies with his finger tips.

Sonic.exe: And much like Frankenstein, electricity can heal this guy up. Hell, not even getting wet in acid can stop this guy.

- Able to gracefully maneuver around deadly obstacles and booby traps with ease.
- Quick enough to dodge speeding projectiles being flung his way

Sonic.exe: Since he doesn't have flesh, his speed makes him incredibly lightweight, and flexible, able to keep up with some of the most flexible people of our era, allowing him to sneak around like Snake Eyes.


Singing and Dancing: 
- Is a dang good singer as far as we're concerned.
- Can burst into song, even while fighting/during battle
- Is actually quite a skilled graceful dancer and knows many moves such as twirling, sliding, and flips.

- If his dancing is off, damage inflicted will be lower and the music note projectiles might miss
- If he dances in any of his other 2 forms, he can summon either fire or ice attacks (see below)

JP: Not only that, but he's also a helluva good singer and can seriously bust some moves.

Sonic.exe: Not only that, but his Applause attack allows him to slide into enemies and knock them flat on their asses, with thematics.

JP: But if he's off by just a step, the damage is lessened and the note projectiles might miss.

Master of fright:

- Is very good at sneaking up on others to trick/scare them

- Said shock wave is powerful enough to tear down trees and bust open large crates.

Sonic.exe: That's cool and all...

Sonic.exe: Believe it or not, he's also a magician, being able to use Blazing Fury to light himself on fire or create a fireball, and Icy Terror to fire off a scattershot of crystals, and Bolts of Sorrow to shock enemies

JP: He can also take a page out of your book and create dark spheres

Personality:
- Very innocent and childlike

- Is impulsive and doesn't think things through
- Very passionate about anything he does 
- Is naive and can be oblivious to the true feelings/intentions of others

- Lead by Zero (See below)
- As fast as Santa's sleigh, making it's speed relativistic (Nearly the speed of light, but not quite there)

JP: Much like Krampus, this guy packs a arsenal of weapons, from the Pumpkin Bombs, the the Bat Boomerang to the Soul Robber whip

- As a canine, he has a heightened sense of smell for tracking
- As a ghost, he can phase through walls

- Since he can fly in front of Jack's sleigh at top speed, his speed may also also relativistic

“Fear and doubt are signs of a strong heart. They push your heart, strike out in new directions! Without them, your zest for life might fade… and would your taste for fear… and believe me, that would really ruin my fun.”
