Beowulf is the protagonist of the old English (well, Danish) epic poem of the same name.
In the poem[edit | edit source]
In his story, Beowulf arrives in Denmark after Grendel had harassed King Hrothgar and his mead hall. He eventually defeats Grendel by ripping off his fucking arm, and having him bleed to death as he runs away from him. He then had to face Grendel's mother after he had killed him, but he soon slayed her as well with relative ease. Finally after her returned from the Danes he had become King of the Geats, and many years later defeated a dragon with the help of Wiglaf, but suffers mortal wounds from the encounter and dies soon after the battle.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Beowulf made his first appearance in 8chanmania:Season 1 - likely in 8chanmania XVIII. He won his initial match against Bret Hart, only to lose to Chris Benoit one round later.
He made his second appearance in 8chanmania LXIX. Despite of an epic struggle, he was kicked out of the preliminaries by Dimity Blaiddyd.
The champions of the Geats teamed up with the Frankish knight Roland for 8chanmania LXXXVII. Unfortunately for them, the two other armored fighters they found in Noble Six and Master Chief were quite a bit stronger than them.
