As sort of a follow-up to my post about the
Clash of Titans remake, I think Perseus has to be one of the first heroes that fit the model of D&D character. How so? Because homeboy is loaded with the magical loot! It seems in most classic myths and legends, and even a lot of modern fantasy tales, the hero is lucky to have one magical weapon. The gods load Perseus up:
- a mirrored shield from Athena,
- a helm of invisibility from Hades,
- an adamantine sickle-sword from Hermes,
- and, also, the winged sandals of Hermes.
Sounds like a high-level PC to me....
Oh, and on a side note, I'm absurdly glad that the dumbass, clockwork owl, Bubo, from the original film won't be finding its way into the remake.
