Bio:

Migrandis was just an average ordinary imp until Belial, the Prince of Darkness, decided to give him a promotion in enforcing the Seventh Circle of Hell. In additioned to that, Migrandis was assigned to Bromes, a minotaur that gaurds the entrance to the seventh circle. Together, they become a deadly duo to be reckoned with.

Gameplay Info:

Special Moves

  • Ground Slam: Bromes slams his gauntlets to the ground.
  • Heavy Swinger: Bromes swings his gauntlet like a wrecking ball at his opponent.
  • Horn Charge: Bromes runs at his opponent and hits him with his horns.
  • Throwing Friend: Bromes grabs Migrandis and throws him at his opponent's face. Depending on what button is used in the input, Migrandis will either punch his opponent, kick his opponent, or bite his opponent. After doing either one, Migrandis quickly crawls back onto Brome's back.
  • Stomp Quake: Bromes hops up and lands onto the ground. If his opponent is standing on ground, the impact of the earthquake will hit him/her.

Finishing Moves:

Vanquishment

Running Of The Bull: Bromes grabs his opponeent and slams him/her everywhere. He then grabs onto the back the opponent's head and slams it down. He runs across the scene, rubbing the opponent's face on the ground leaving a trail of blood and then he tosses the opponent up in the air. Just when the screaming opponent, who is now covered in bloody battle scars a la Mortal Kombat 9, is about to land down, Bromes catches the opponent by crushing his/her body in half with his spiked gauntlets, seperating the torso and leaving guts spilling out. Migrandis jumps out of his seat and jams two knives into the opponent's eyes before the torso slips off. Afterwards, Migrandis quickly crawls back up on top of Bromes.

Quick Deaths

  • Ground Slam: The opponent is smashed into gory pieces.
  • Heavy Swinger: The opponent's torso flies off.
  • Horn Charge: The opponent is impaled onto Bromes's center horn.

Misc. Info:

  • Voice Actor: Tom Kenny (Migrandis), N/A (Bromes; Bromes only speaks in grunts)
  • Intro Sequence: Migrandis walks up to a sleeping Bromes, climbs on top of his head and wakes him up saying, "Come on, Bromes! Let's fucking kill something already!" Bromes wakes up and gets ready.
  • Victory Sequence: Bromes roars at the sky. Meanwhile, Migrandis says, "We did it, Bromes! We showed that pathetic little pompus who's boss!" as he stands on top of Bromes like he's in a rodeo show. Red, white and blue confetti lands onto Migrandis and Bromes, to which Migrandis responds by throwing a knife that's bigger than himself at somebody who's off-screen. After everyone gasps, Migrandis yells "You're in the wrong period, assholes!"
  • Stage: Phlegethon
  • Rival: Bae Hee Young

Story Mode:

Intro Cutscene:

(We're treated with a landscape view of Hell. It looks similar to Mordor from Lord of the Rings, only things appear to be all black and red and there's lots of lava and fire. We then cut to Belial on his throne. Migrandis walks up to Belial and climbs onto his right hand.)
-Belial: "State your business, Migrandis, and make it fast!"
-Migrandis: "You know, Belial, I've been doing some thinking lately."
-Belial: "Alright, go on."
-Migrandis: "I've been joining my buddies in causing misfortune and mayhem among the mortal of Earth, but now I'm getting bored as shit!"
-Belial: "What?"
-Migrandis: "Yeah, things are becoming so bleak as fuck for me so I want a new job."
-Belial: "But Migrandis..."
(Cut to a flashback of Migrandis's last misadventures with his fellow imps as they terrorized a young couple in the woods. The young man has chestnut hair and green eyes while the young lady has blonde hair and blue eyes. Just when the two lovebirds are about to kiss, Migrandis and another imp are holding each severed head and moved them towards the two. The young man and young lady end up kissing the severed heads and they open their eyes and shriek in terror over what they were kissing. They're lips are covered in blood.)
-Belial (v/o): "...You imps love to cause misery among humans. You can't seriously tell me that you are getting bored with all the fun you little guys get to have."
(The young lady moves back towards a tree, which contains a trap set up by a couple of other imps. The lady is dragged upside down by tree-tied ropes This terrifies the man who sees his love interest tied upside down. When Migrandis and his fellow imps pesture him around, he tries to shove them away from him.)
-Migrandis (v/o): "I still like to toy with the humans, but I'm just tired of the same routine every single fucking day. Now granted, it's fun to see these people wobble into their own misery, but still..."
(The ropes, which are tied around the lady's limbs BTW, are being pulled back by a bunch of imps, thus tearing the young woman in half.)
-Man: "NOOOOO!!!"
(Just when Migrandis and another imp are holding a disembodied goat horn together, aiming it at the scared man's butt, he turns around in horror and then we cut back to Belial and Migrandis in Hell.)
-Migrandis: "Do you know what I can do to make up for this bullshit?"
-Belial: "...Tell you what, how about I give you a new job like you said you wanted."
-Migrandis: "Really?"
-Belial: "Exactly."
(Cut to a gate leading to the Seventh Circle of Hell. Belial (with Migrandis on top of Nequitius) teleports there and leads him to the gate.)
-Migrandis: "Wait, what am I suppose to do in here?"
-Belial: "Actually, I'm partnering you up with a minotaur named Bromes."
-Migrandis: "Oh boy, I get to meet a new friend!"
-Belial: "Calm down. We'll meet him."
(There, they meet Bromes, a minotaur who is in charge of guarding the gate.)
-Belial: "Migrandis, say hello to your big friend."
-Bromes: "..."
(Migrandis hops off of Nequitius and lands onto Bromes's palm. He climbs onto his shoulder.)
-Migrandis: "Hello Bromes. I am Migrandis, and we'll be the greatest motherfuckers who ever lived. Deal?"
-Bromes: "..."
-Belial: "Now that you are partners with a minotaur, you two will become my enforcers working together."
-Migrandis: "HAHA! Ain't this gonna be fun, Bromes?"
-Bromes: "..."
-Belial: "Now you know the first thing to do."

Prologue:

Hell is always identified as a place where souls of the unrepentant end up at when then die to get tortured in agonizing pain. It is also a nightmarish wonderland that is home to some of the most terrifying of demonic creatures. Imps are an example of demonic creatures that live in Hell as they are known to cause mischief and harm among mortals. Migrandis himself is an imp. After decades of causing trouble with the mortals on Earth, he became bored with his role and wanted to do something different. Belial, upon listening to Migrandis's concerns, has offered the rigid imp a promotion in enforcement. Migrandis was assigned to bond with a minotaur named Bromes, who guards the Seventh Circle of Hell. Both Migrandis and Bromes became close friends with eachother ever since.

Rival Cutscene:

(Scene takes place in a circular arena surrounded by mountains, skulls, and crooked pillars with pointy ends and the sky is covered in clouds with colors ranging from grey to blackish blue. Migrandis and Bromes are sitting around the circle, guarding the fabled Sphere of Wonders.)
-Migrandis: "You know what we do, Bromes. Any shitstain trying to get to this place, we pummel."
-Bromes: "..."
-Migrandis: "Oh look! Here comes a sissy boy!"
(They see Bae Hee Young come to the circle.)
-Bae: "Excuse me, who are you calling a sissy?"
-Migrandis: "You know what the fuck we're talking about. You look like a girl! How are we all of a sudden intimidated?!?"
-Bae: "I may not look like the kind of warrior you two unholy cretins would expect, but..."
(As Bae Hee Young unsheaths his sword.)
-Bae: "...I am a knight! A hwarang!"
-Migrandis: "Hwarang, swarang. Who gives a rat's ass?"
-Bae: "I do! You won't stop me from reaching Belial and where he's keeping the princess in Hell!"
-Migrandis: "Oh, so you wanna be a Korean Prince Charming? Well we'll see about that! Ready, Bromes?"
(Bromes gets up and gets ready to fight.)
-Bromes: "..."
-Migrandis: "What are you gonna do about, pretty boy? Are you gonna kill me and Bromes with flower shit?"
-Bae: "No, but I will make those flowers from you perish into nothingness!"
-Migrandis: *sarcastic* "O, I'm scared of a girly looking boy who's trying to save the princess." *ends sarcasm* "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Go fuck yourself!"

Final Boss Cutscene:

(After defeating Bae Hee Young, Migrandis and Bromes go to the Sphere of Wonders and walks towards it, only to be carried over to Hell. The two monsters are greeted by Belial. However, the Belial they face has a different sounding voice akin to Terror Mask from Splatterhouse (implying that this might not be the real Belial).)
-"Belial": "Welcome back to Hell, Migrandis and Bromes."
-Migrandis: "Hold up! Belial, what happened to your voice?"
-"Belial": "Oh that? That's none of your concern."
-Migrandis: "Wait a minute, something's not right here. Are you really Belial?"
-Bromes: "..."
-Migrandis: "Now now, Bromes."
-"Belial": "I am Belial."
-Migrandis: "OK. If you're Belial, then ask me some shit, buster. What lullaby have you sung for me in my first days in existence?"
-"Belial": "Well, I...uh..."
-Migrandis: "And who was the last person you remember being doomed to Hell? Huh?"
-"Belial": "Uh..."
-Migrandis: "And do you remember what you originally looked like when you were an angel?"
-"Belial": "...You know what, fuck it!"
("Belial" summons his trident Nequitius.)
-"Belial": "How about we both fight each other, you and me!"
-Migrandis: "You know what, you're not the real Belial after all. Let's see who you really are, you faker!"
-Bromes: "..."

Ending:

(Bromes holds onto the fake Belial's trident and snaps it in half with one hand.)
-"Belial": "OH COME ON!!!"
-Migrandis: "Sorry, Mr. Imposter, but you ain't shit! You don't seem like the Belial we know in love! Take him out, Bromes!"
-Bromes: "..."
-"Belial: "Oh fu-"
(Bromes punches the phony Belial in the face. As the fake Belial falls down, he shape shifts to his real identity, revealing that the fake Belial was actually, of all people, Ogoleithus from Brutal Fists.)
-Migrandis: "Are you kidding me?!? Who the hell are you?!?"
-Ogoleithus: "I am Ogoleithus!"
-Migrandis: "Ogoleithus?"
-Bromes: "..."
-Ogoleithus: "You know, the fuckin' demon god of chaos!"
(The real Belial shows up next to Migrandis and Bromes.)
-Belial: "So we found ourselves an imposter I see, and that imposter is none other than that obnoxious and arrogant kiss-up, Ogoleithus."
-Migrandis: "Do you know this dumbass?"
-Belial: "As a matter of fact, yes."
-Ogoleithus: "It all started when me and Belial met prior to getting some shit called the Sphere of Wonders. I wanted to be partners with him but he wouldn't let me."
-Belial: "Because he is an annoying little worm! However, I did give him a chance if he gambled with me."
-Ogoleithus: "Yeah, like he said!"
(Cut to a flashback where Ogoleithus and Belial were at the mountainous arena (the same one where in-game rival battles take place) playing a game of Hazard. Audiance watching the two go at it consist of demons from Hell (on Belial's side) and a bunch of black-colored demons in shapes and sizes (on Ogoleithus's side). However, Ogoleithus looses the game of Hazard and Belial wins.)
-Ogoleithus (v/o): "We were playing a game of Hazard where I just made a bet where if I won, I'd get to be best buddies with him, but if he won, I might as well go fuck myself."
-Belial (v/o): "And you should fuck yourself because, even for a demonic deity such as yourself, you were the worst gambler ever! So after I won, you weren't allowed in!"
(Cut back to Belial, Migrandis, Bromes and Ogoleithus.)
-Ogoleithus: "How would you know I suck at gambling?"
-Belial: "Hey! Don't deny your lack of gambling talent, demon god! In fact, you don't even deserve to be a demon god! You're too vexatious!"
-Ogoleithus: "Well you know what, to hell with you, Belial! To hell with you and to hell with those two queers over there!"
-Migrandis: "WHAT?!?"
-Belial: "You know what, maybe you might need a visit from Bromes himself!"
-Migrandis: "Let show that douchbag who's boss, Bromes!"
-Bromes: "..."
(Bromes picks up Ogoleithus by the waist and crushes him to death. Purple blood starts gushing out of the demon god.)
-Migrandis: "How about that you tentacle'd little shit?"
(Bromes slams the mangled-up Ogoleithus, splattering his entire body except for the head, limbs, and half of his tentacles. Ogoleithus's head starts rolling away.)
-Belial: "Dispose of this piece of him! I don't want to look at his face!"
(Belial kicks Ogoleithus's head close to Brome's feet. Bromes raises his right leg and crushes the demon god's severed head. Afterwards, the scene cuts to two swords clashing eachother to form an X in front of a shield that fades to existence, followed by the text "EPIC BLADES" emerging from behind the shield, followed by the credits with a montage of character renders and screenshots from each character's story mode as well as Sevendust's "Corrected" playing throughout.)
Ladies and gentlemen, may I like to present to you not one but two characters in one playable state!... It's a dou character.

Dou characters are playable characters that consist of at least two characters. Ice Climbers from Super Smash Bros., Chilli and Pepper from Battle Monsters, Cait and Sith from Chaos Code, Noob Smoke from Mortal Kombat Deception and Ferra and Torr from the upcoming Mortal Kombat X. So if you like duo characters, you'll like Migrandis and Brome, too!

We have Migrandis who is a scheming and sinister little imp who curses alot and cracks wise and we also have Bromes who is a minotaur from the Seventh Circle of Hell. Yeah, since Epic Blades takes place in the medieval era where people in Europe are beginning to worship Jesus Christ and pagan gods like Zeus and Odin are old news (yes, SoulCalibur has Sophitia who is a champion of the Greek gods while the game is taking place in the medieval-renaissance periods, but still...). So in order for me to incorporate a minotaur, a monster from Greek mythology, into the middle ages based Epic Blades, I decided to use a minotaur based on the one from Dante's Divine Comedy as well as the game Dante's Inferno where the minotaur is a boss character. Bromes is pretty much like that minotaur from Dante's Inferno, especially since he has someone riding him.

Oh yeah, and for those of you who remember my other original fighter Brutal Fists, Ogoleithus, a bonus boss character from that game, makes a cameo in Migrandis & Bromes's rahter hilarious ending, which is actually in the form of a skit rather than being like other characters' endings. 

Oh and before anyone asks, like with Ferra/Torr in MKX, at the end of a match right before that moment where you have the option to finish off Bromes, Migrandis falls off of him into unconsiousness just like Ferra right before it's time to finish off Torr after a match.

Belial is stronger than Ogoleithus? (I know it was a game of Hazard but he was doing a pretty good job at intimidating him)
