William vs Marcus « Thread Started on Jun 26, 2008, 10:03pm »
Will post the pictures soon........
William
William was the son of Alexander Corvinus and the twin brother of Marcus Corvinus. Both were born sometime in the 5th century. He, along with Marcus, inherited the immortality strain from his father. Marcus and William both shared a bond that Alexander never truly saw. Marcus was bitten by a bat and William by a wolf. He thus became the first true Lycan. Unlike later Lycans, he was an albino Lycan and could not transform back to human form. His lycanthropy virus was much more infectious than Marcus' vampire virus, even allowing dead victims to transform.
In 1202, he was captured by Marcus' Death Dealers just after he infected an entire village. Against Marcus' wishes, William was imprisoned by Viktor in his fortress, far from Marcus' reach. This caused Marcus to swear vengeance against Viktor and those loyal to him.
Centuries later, William was freed from his dungeon by his brother, Marcus. Their bond still remained strong to the point that William recognized Marcus even through his own bestial nature. William proved to be a powerful creature, despite his centuries of confinement with no blood to feed on. He infected the Cleaners who came to fight him and also combated the hybrid Michael Corvin, descendant of his mortal brother, absorbing immense amounts of damage with no obvious signs of trauma done to him. The centuries of bloodless confinement, however, still left William significantly weaker than he once was. Because of this, he was unable to defeat the powerful hybrid, Michael, who tore apart the Lycan Elder's head with his bare hands.
Marcus was one of three sons of Helena and Alexander Corvinus. He, along with his twin brother William, inherited the same virus which transformed his father into the first true immortal. Marcus had a strong bond with William. While William was bitten by a wolf which resulted in him becoming the first Lycan, or werewolf, Marcus was bitten by a bat which transformed him into the first Vampire.
William went on to ravage the countryside of Hungary, infecting the populace with his highly infectious lycanthropy virus. In order to combat the growing lycan threat Marcus approached Viktor, a dying warlord, to borrow his military genius and army (who became the Death Dealers) in exchange for immortality. Viktor accepted and became one of the Vampire Elders. Marcus also personally infected Amelia, making her the first Vampiress Elder.
In 1202, Viktor led a charge into a Hungarian village which William supposedly passed through. Instead of finding only William, they found an entire village of lycans. Death Dealers, including Amelia, subdued and injured William before Marcus, who pleaded for his brother's life before Viktor. Viktor, thinking that if any of the Corvinus brothers were killed the immortal bloodline would eventually die, locked William far away from the reach of Marcus. Marcus, then swore vengeance against Viktor and all those loyal to him, but was able to do little, as the Death Dealers were loyal to Viktor alone.
After William was captured, the "Chain" was constructed, a system when only one Elder ruled while the other two slumbered. Supposedly, Marcus ruled the two covens (the New World and Old World), but power was truly in the hands of Viktor, the ruler of the Old World coven. Viktor started to gather more power to himself to become the true leader of the Vampires, going as far as to alter history into naming him as the original Vampire. Later Marcus supposedly frowned upon the practice of feeding on humans. Marcus claimed that he enjoyed the company of Andreas Tanis, the Official Historian of the Coven, most likely because Tanis knew that Marcus was indeed the original vampire. However, Viktor and Amelia undercut Marcus' power, ensuring he would never have the strength to free his brother.

Sorry Questzalcoatus, but I've never heard of any of these characters. But if I could hope for a winner it would be 'William' who appears more of an animal!!
The vampire willam marcus would loose imo,The hyrbid marcus against william would be 50/50
Well, I still give william the victory over hybrid marcus due to his greater agility dispite his unability to fly not to mention capable of taking greater damage.

William was weak after all that containment so we really didn't get to see his full power. But I'd agree william also seems to have a wide range of weapons.

A vampire/lycan hybrid is acctually supposed to be stronger than either vampire or lycan, however, marcus dran the blood of a lycan scientist and that was probably not enough to close the gap between the two.

To make this debate more interesting, I would like to add that micheal corvin (half lycan/ half vampire) went toe to toe with vampire elder victor initially winning but finally having the vampire turn tables on him due to his lack of experience in battle, micheal corvin had only recently turn into a hybrid (in Underworld). In underworld evolution, micheal corvin went toe to toe with marcus corvinus (1st vampire -turn into a hybird by drinking the blood of lycan scientist singe) on the back of the truck and was initially winning until marcus threw him out of the truck like a ragdoll, he manage to grab onto the ropes though. In their second fight, it did not really count as marcus manage to somewhat kill micheal before he could transform (complete him transformation) but micheal healed having healing power stronger than vampire or lycan. And at the end of this episode micheal corvin manage to tear of william corvinus head (the ist and strongest lycan) though the lycan was winning at first only to be forced away by clearners and selene firing uv rounds at william until marcus pulled down the helicopter.
However, between the 2nd and 3rd fight, micheal corvinus had a little difficulty taking on the lycans that were guarding and eiled vampire (tannis) and before the fight with william (final fight), micheal manage to easily kill one of the lycans (cleaners turn into lycans by william without breaking a sweat). Therefore, micheal corvin being 50% lycan and 50% vampire obviously grew in strength by each passing hour - someone from another forum read that book (marcus corvinus drinking the blood of a weak lycan scientist was more vampire than lycan and couldn't close the gap between him and william and was beaten by selene at the final fight just after micheal tore off william's head).
