Urza Planeswalker
Urza, from Magic: the Gathering, is a Planeswalker, an extraordinarily powerful immortal being granted near-godly powers by the ignition of a spark within his soul. Urza is four thousand years old, and tremendously cunning and powerful. He is a master artificer, capable of creating the Titans, colossal battlemechs capable of decimating hundreds of enemies with a single wave of their hands and equipped with a spectacular array of missiles and weapons. He also once devised a bomb capable of reducing a plane to nothingness. He has shown the ability to regenerate from lethal attacks, though sufficient force may be enough to incapacitate him, or destroy him if his supply of magic is completely drained. Additionally, Urza is a nearly unequalled sorcerer, with powerful spells and artifacts at his command, as well as a skilled warrior for his age. He has a strange weakness, however: should the stones in his eyes, the Mightstone and the Weakstone (used to empower or weaken artifacts), ever become damaged, the resultant energy discharge will be powerful enough to kill him outright.
Technically I don't think that last part is true. I know that one person argued in a prior MPFC that Urza has had his entire body destroyed countless times, to no ill effect because he can regenerate. Don't think I've read that novel though so I can't weigh in. Removing them works better, but I don't think it's an instant win either, by any means.
Host's Note: No using cards to powerscale Urza or infer his abilities. Work off of his novels or refrain from pitching in. Anyone caught trying to argue MtG cards in Urza's favor will be permanently banned from MPFC2k11.
Really think lore from the cards should be fair game too, because card lore and the novels cross-reference each other all the time. It's just game mechanics that should be avoided.
Also, would like to give my obligatory please don't allow Urza in pre-contest warning/plea.
Refusing precisely due to the reasons you stated. People didn't learn to distinguish italics text from plain text and thus Urza won matches he shouldn't have based on GameFAQS Urza factor. Not dealing with that, unlike I would for, say, Jaya Ballard who at least has a tightly knit set of spells that isn't Urzatron.
Also, the argument on regen is more or less poppycock and part of why I specifically pointed out that he can be restrained or neutralized without having to kill him a ton of itmes: Gerrard Capashen, the soldier he genetically engineered, decapitated him while depowered and Urza never reformed to full even though he could have, instead donating his powerstones to Karn the silver golem. Basically he can regen except it has caveats.
