Mirror Universe: Difference between revisions

 

 

** They have a Greek name, and Tyrant wears Greek-style armor, because of a legendary [[Real Life]] incident: when told of the existence of [[Alternate Universe|alternate universes]], Alexander the Great wept: "So many worlds, and we have not yet conquered one."

*** Also as a foil to the heroic Freedom Phalanx.

** The expansion ''Going Rogue'' (not to be confused with Sarah Palin's book) looks to be giving them a [[Retcon]] into more 'Justice Lords' than 'Crime Syndicate', there incidentally there is also a [[The Syndicate|Syndicate]] in Praetorian Earth. There's also good versions of several villain groups; the [[Circus of Fear|soul-stealing Carnival of Shadows]] are the heroic Carnival of Light, and [[La Résistance|the Resistance]] seem to be based on [[Cyberpunk|the Freakshow]].

** Other confirmed "opposites" include:

*** Counterpart to Nemesis, ''the'' [[Magnificent Bastard]], is an apparent nobody

*** Counterpart to Odysseus, leader of the Warriors, is a trainer in the Underground.

** [[The Legend of Zelda Oracle Games|Oracle of Ages/Seasons]] basically take place within two different universes that are mirror universes of each other. Subverted when you play one game with the code you get from another, where {{spoiler|some people from Labrynna are in Holodrum and vice versa}}, depending on which game you play second.

* Many team vs. team combat games and multiplayer RTS/turn-based strategy games implicitly use this for the sake of fairness; both teams will have access to identical characters who fight in levels that are the same on each team's side. [[Color Coded for Your Convenience|Color-coding]] or something else that doesn't affect gameplay distinguishes the two "worlds."
