[21 appears in his civvies on the screen and appears to be snacking on something. He finishes chewing and swallowing seconds after, though, realizing the equipment is already working

Voldemort.

[twoton21]

Defend your position. I'm not taking tallies.

[boeshane_boy]

Adolf was short and kind of awkward. If Voldemort's got a body, he'd probably handle himself better.

Assuming Voldie isn't a complete failure in a fist fight, anyway.

[twoton21]

It's a shame that was never tested. Might have made the last battle a lot more interesting.

[thegooddrjones]

Voldemort. He at least would kill people. Hitler would hide behind someone else to do it.

[twoton21]

Points to the doctor lady!

one character with pop culture AND roundworld history knowledge. this is sad.

[christ_onabike]

No magic?

Hitler. He might be short and a snivelling little fascist, but:

a) he was a soldier
b) Voldemort has, what, 1/7th of a soul? And is all pale and icky.
c) you've still got to be kind of tough to be a fascist. It's the putches.
d) Voldemort would only know how to fight with his magic and wouldn't know how to throw a punch.
e) did you see kid Voldemort in those films? He was a weed. I doubt adult Voldemort was much better.

Dude, he wasn't a soldier. He was lucky. The fact that he could get his pants on in the morning was a miracle.

[christ_onabike]

No, he was a soldier in the First World War. I'll go find you a page in a history book which says it. He got the Iron Cross.

I might not be that fucking clever, but I know that much.

[twoton21]

I'm not disputing he might have been in the military; I just don't automatically assume that means the guy had skills.

Creed has so read HP. Boring missions get boring okay?

Hitler.

Voldemort's entire defence depended on his magic, instead of physical prowess.

Hitler, however, knew at least some hand-to-hand, not to mention he was a soldier, and didn't depend on just his bodyguards at the end. He could handle himself in a fist fight - came from being homeless on the streets.

Voldemort's probably got a glass jaw too.

[twoton21]

I think you're underestimating how crazy he could probably get when he's backed into a corner. He epitomizes "never-say-die". When he lost the war the first time he at least had a contingency plan. This is versus the guy who lost and then blew his own head off.

[uowemeascream]

Not underestimating. Just know how crazy Hitler was. Plus, it'd come down to physical prowess. I'd take Hitler in that fight over snake-boy any day.

[twoton21]

He wasn't crazy. ...Well, no. I'm pretty sure he was crazy. But he was an overglorified D student who hired crazier and more dependable people than he was.

And to be fair Voldemort's physical abilities in his new body were never put to the full test. If you want to talk Pre-Goblet of fire, then yeah, I'd argue he was fucked. But that entire story was about him building a new body that wasn't frail. And he might have hated non-magic stuff, but he wasn't stupid and he was dead paranoid.

While I know I'm gonna regret asking this:

Who's Voldemort?

[twoton21]

You've never read Harry Potter or seen the movies?

[gotgreenmagic]

Heard a tiny little bit about it because of your Warden, otherwise? Nnnno.
