A necromantic rockstar and a ghostly puppeteer walk into a bar. Unlike her companion, the ghost passes through unharmed. Then they fight over what the stage inside is supposed to be used for as the party fills up with more ghosts, ghouls, haunts, haints, and spooky scary skeletons than you can wave a femur at. Is this an inconsistent and poorly told joke? Maybe! But it's definitely BattleCON! And if we're lucky with this matchup, we might not run out the clock  -----------  Stage right, played by Spincut, high on unlife and ready to play with a few characters of her own, it's Tanis Trilives!  Stage left, played by ActingPower, high on his own magnificent ego (and things best not speculated on) and ready to surf the length of the stage and back, it's Voco Astrum!  ----------- Players, send me your chosen discards and finishers! Spectators, get ready to duck and cover! Who will win? Only time can tell!

Hm. Gonna pre-emptively make the call that Voco's zombies actually deal life loss during end of beat. Hope Tanis can jump off the board fast enough

With your reference to a stage and ghosts I figured they'd end up in the ghostly opera hall arena or whatever.

Oh geez, what have I gotten myself into. I'll say Loki in front of me, Eris on me, and Mephisto behind me for opening formation.
