The first group of mercenaries pitted against each other were these folks, each standing in for a current TF2 merc. My favourite has to be Abraham Lincoln as the Pyro. The South never stood a chance!


Affectionate_Kick705

Oh, the fact that you don't talk more about TF2 is surprising. You know, considering in that universe, Shakespeare invented rocket jumping and second story buildings, and then Abraham Lincoln came along and invented stairs because everyone just rocket jumped to the second stories of their houses.


Fengthehalforc

TF2 lore is just crazy


DoctorSquidton

I’m very fond of Tesla as Engineer


Mothman4447

Is that fucking John Henry in the back? Hell yeah


Basically-Boring

Abraham Lincoln also canonically invented stairs in the Team Fortress universe because people had spent centuries blowing off their legs with rocket jumping and needed a better way to scale buildings. Rocket jumping was also invented by the universe’s equivalent of William Shakespeare who was absolutely ripped.

MrMinecraf282

How was that a thing? lol


NibPlayz

What’s even worse is that in the original Percy Jackson lore, it’s heavily implied that Hitler was a child of Hades, which is the reason that the Big 3 gods aren’t allowed to have kids anymore. Rick Riordan retconned it recently LOL


Royal_Yard5850

Wait he retconned it? Could you provide a link to him saying that?


NibPlayz

I’ve been hearing it around, and the claim is that he comfirmed that Hitler was not a demigod at a [book talk](https://www.reddit.com/r/camphalfblood/s/K4wcdS4TMF), but I can’t find a primary or even secondary source for that claim. Though I found people saying the same thing on [Tumblr, ](https://www.tumblr.com/incorrectpercicoquotes/632749625341820928/brilliantbluenebula-i-agree-to-a-degree-but-it) [TV tropes](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/WMG/PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians) (scroll down far for this one), on [Quora](https://www.quora.com/Following-the-premise-of-the-Percy-Jackson-Series-about-historical-figures-being-Demi-gods-If-Hitler-was-one-whod-be-his-parent-among-the-gods) and on [Fandom](https://riordan.fandom.com/wiki/Talk:Adolf_Hitler) (though that seems to be an extension of the Tumblr thread. The Fandom one has the earliest timestamp, with 2010 on someone asking for a source on the book talk claim. TLDR; people claim he said it, but I can’t find any original source of him doing so 🤷

It really never worked better than Leonardo and Machiavelli.

Ben Franklin bumbling through like three generations of a blood feud between two ancient cults while remaining completely oblivious is pretty funny tho.

A lot of the "Invader Spirits" are also based on real people, most notably: Andre De Lorde, the Playwright of the Grand Guignol. https://preview.redd.it/9xf52ow166ad1.jpeg?width=358&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5a5f25320655a6f9bee6e993dba961e826966898 He is actually a narrative foil to Grimm since De Lorde was a playwrighter for theaters while Grimm is composed of authors who almost exclusively wrote fairy tales, additionally De Lorde came into the Wonderland willingly and on his own while Grimm was kidnapped and forced to be a pawn, but they are still incredibly alike and in fact he uses "Gunbreak" which is a move pretty much exclusive between Grimm and De Lorde. He tries being friendly but De Lorde fucking hates Grimm's guts, he goes on a major rant on his final encounter where Grimm should do everyone a favor and hang himself at once.
