History Stick War II: Order Empire. Medusa is the leader of the Chaos Empire. After seeing her giants being enslaved by Order, she waged war, she and her Chaos Empire was pushed back to the castle and defeated.

Personality she is strict, Cruel, strategic and smart, an extremely good strategist and tactician, but extremely caring to her people. Medusa is the empress of the Chaos Empire, known for her serious demeanor and overconfidence. With snakes adorning her hair and a green robe, she commands respect. Medusa excels in strategic warfare, petrifying enemies, and leading the Chaos Empire to victory against the Order Empire. She's a snake haired witch that has the power to summon Bombers (Creatures that are explosive), spew out Toxic Acid, and the ability to Petrified anyone who makes eye contact with her. She's sworn to destroy Order Empire, take over Inamorata once and for all. She claims that the Order Empire and the rest of the Rebel Nations all belongs to her and she also is very angry that the Order Empire is now enslaving her giants that were once in Chaos Territory. Medusa, the Queen of the Chaos Empire, is a formidable snake-haired witch with the power to summon Bombers, spew Toxic Acid, and Petrify anyone who makes eye contact. She's determined to destroy the Order Empire and rule Inamorata. Medusa's expertise lies in her command over chaos, summoning Bombers, spewing Toxic Acid, and petrifying foes with a single gaze. She's also adept at strategic planning and ruling her empire with an iron fist. I geek out on the art of chaos and destruction. There's something truly satisfying about watching my Bombers wreak havoc and my Toxic Acid corrode everything in its path

Appearance Stick Empires Medusa is a tall black stick figure with an hourglass silhouette, tucked behind a green lavish cloak. Two golden bands hang around Medusa's body, one acting as a neck-collar, and the other as a headband. Atop her scalp are approximately thirty snakes, similar to hair, strewn along in messy fashion.

Stick War II: Order Empire

medusa appears similar to its Stick Empires counterpart but is way larger (to signify it has more health) and wears a yellow cloak, she is maroon in color (to signify she is a enemy).

Now despite the complete loss, her determination is stronger than ever, she misses the past, but when they come to her again to torture her, she behaves scared. she lost her eyes, but her snake hair helps her move, she also retained her appearance, strength and clothes, her robe is just shabby.

Her voice is hoarse like an old maid's.

Abilities General Abilities Petrify Petrify deals heavy damage to a unit. If Petrify kills the target, it is turned into stone, with the exception of Giants, Enslaved Giants, and most units that disappear when dying such as Eclipsors (cosmetic effect only).

At the beginning of her boss fight, Medusa casts a more powerful Petrify on all units in the battlefield.

Venom Flux Medusa announces "Toxicum Acidicus!" and her snakes spit a pool of poison in front of her that inflict Poison to enemy units inside.

Boss Abilities Summon Bombers Summon Bombers can summon 1-4 bombers, the same particle effects appear as the ghosts in tower spawn.

Appearance Petra appears to have a lighter skin tone, eye color, and less snakes on her hair than her mother. She wears a light gold headdress. Her dress is white with light green edges.

Although Petra is younger than Medusa, if Medusa’s height and the only image of Petra we have is anything to go by, she would still be decently taller than any normal Stickman or Stickwoman.

Participation in the plot At some point between before the events of the first Stick War and anytime after or during Stick War 3, Petra was either birthed, created, or adopted by Medusa. It is unknown when this happened.

Chaos is an empire in the Stick War series. A force of pure evil, the empire sprung up after the events of the original Stick War, posing a great threat to all of Inamorta. Led by Medusa, the Chaos were only defeated by a joint effort between the Order and the rebel tribes.

Chaos also has some special traits of its own. It has the highest damaging ability (Petrify from Medusa) and it also has the ability to have passive curing over all units, further showing their dark and mysterious power.

Chaos acts as a counterpart to Order, having the same amount of units under the same categories: consisting of 3 basic infantry units, 2 ranged units, 2 spellcasters (one support and 1 offensive) and 1 heavy tank.

History Stick War II: Order Empire Chaos was an army building in secret while Order was busy fighting the Rebellion Empires. When Order reached No Man's Land and enslaved all the giants, Medusa was enraged at the sight of her "babies" being enslaved and declared war on Order, who, with which the rebellions had teamed up with, pushed Chaos and Medusa back to their castle and defeated them.

They had held the Elementals captive.

Military Enslaved Miner: Worker Chaos Miner Box The (enslaved) Miner acts as the economic backbone of Chaos, supplying resources to create the army and maintain it. The Miner can also fulfill a defensive role by building Miner Towers, defensive turrets that fire projectiles at attackers. However, in terms of combat the Enslaved Miner - like its Order counterpart - lacks armor and has a very low attack power in its pitiful melee strikes.

The Miner can be upgraded with Miner Hustle to have increased health and speed.

Crawler: Light Melee/scout/harasser Crawler Box The Crawler acts as an early-game unit for Chaos, as well as being a source of harassment against the enemy army. It has high speed which can be amplified with Predatory Edge. With 'Predatory Edge', it becomes one of the few units that can attack while moving.

Crawlers are mainly used in packs and can be a great harassing group. When Crawlers get the Pack Mentality upgrade, they get increased damage output based on the amount of crawlers on the battle field which can stack 5 times.

Though the Crawler lacks armor, it makes up for it with speed and decent damage, making use of hit-and-run attacks to pressure the opponent.

Dead: Ground Ranged Dead Box The Deads act as a ranged/support unit. When upgraded, its ranged attacks inflict Poison, with the potential of doing large amounts of damage over time. Their guts do increased damage to armored units. They also appeared in Stick War: Legacy in the gamemode "Endless Deads".

The Deads are considered to be armored by the game, even though their low-speed and health are unsuitable for an effective tanking role, and the fact that the Deads are rotting which is technically supposed to make them weaker.

Marrowkai: Offensive Spellcaster Marrowkai Box The Marrowkai acts as an offensive/support spellcaster. It has 2 spells: Reaper, which can temporarily lure out and damage key enemy units, and Hells Fists which is another spell which can cause mass AoE damage in a straight line (the only spell that can rival electric wall/blast)

The Marrowkai lacks armor, health and speed. However, its high damage capabilities compensates this and makes it an important unit. This is why it is important to have good protection and spacing between the enemy units and the Marrowkai.

Medusa: Support Spellcaster/Assasin Medusa Box Medusa acts as a support spellcaster for Chaos, even though she cannot heal other units. She can instantly kill infantry units from a long distance via 'Petrify'. She can also act as a area denial unit by spraying poison over a large area on the battlefield, forcing opponents to either back away or take heavy damage from poison. This gives the player's army an advantage over the enemy.

As with all spellcasters, Medusa is frail, but her powerful support capabilities make her an important unit to have.

She is considered to be a "Master of Poison"

Juggerknight: Offensive tank/Melee The Juggerknight acts as the offensive tank unit of Chaos. It has decent speed, good health capacity, and damage capabilities.

Juggerknight Box The Juggerknight can initiate battle with a Charge that causes them to temporarily increase their speed and Stun any enemy unit in their way

Being a unit with a great tanking role and offensive capability, Juggerknights make an appearance in almost any match featuring Chaos.

Bomber: AOE Assasins Kamikaze Box The Bomber is a suicidal unit, which can run straight up to enemies and detonate upon contact, dealing large AoE damage. The unit is also killed in the process.

The Bomber has high speed but the lowest health in the game. However it has large damage and harassment potential, being great at picking off low health units (e.g. Miners, Swordwrath, Archidons) and hurting the opponent's economy.

It can also be Manually detonated and this detonation can attack flying units,thereby making it crucial to fight Airs.

Eclipsor: Air light ranged Eclipsor Box The Eclipsor acts as a fast, aerial ranged unit. It is airborne, so only ranged units and spells,giants, and Cycloid can attack it. However, it lacks armor, making it more susceptible to attacks compared to the Albowtross. It makes up for this with speed and range.

With excellent damage output and difficulty in countering these units, Eclipsors are very desirable in the late-game for Chaos.

Chaos Giant: Heavy Melee/tank Gian Box The Giant acts as a offensive Heavy tank unit in Chaos. It is extremely slow, but is the most durable unit in the whole game (other than the statue) and can stun multiple units with its strong attack. However, it is extremely costly and is easy to outnumber, if not used correctly in certain circumstances. In the hands of players who know ways to exploit the power of a Giant, it can be devastating in matches late-game.

As such, the Giant is seen as a common tank for spellcasters in Chaos.

The Marrowkai, also known as the Kai, is the Lord of the Dead and a unit in the Chaos Empire. Seen as the spellcaster of the faction, the Marrowkai uses many magic abilities to disarm and eliminate his foes.

Appearance The Marrowkai is a skeleton with a visible heart. He has no visible teeth and a wide gaping mouth. He wears a black mantle with spike-like protrusions on either side and carries a staff composed of bones.

Abilities Reaper Marrowkai will chant "Vultiosis Tandio!" and then slam his staff into the ground summoning a reaper. The target unit takes damage and is forced to move toward the casting player's base.

In Stick War III, the Marrowkai does not chant and uses a different animation, beckoning toward the enemy with his hand instead. Reaper does not deal damage in this game and automatically targets the frontmost enemy.

Hell Fists Marrowkai will chant “Abyssus Pugnus!” and slam half his right arm in the ground, summoning multiple fists in the targeted direction. In Stick Empires this ability needs to be researched before use. In Stick War III, it deals 15 less damage and has a higher cooldown of 30 seconds but now stuns all units it hits.

Summon Marrowkai raises 4 Summoned Deads to fight for him. Like other Summoned Deads, units created by Summon are uncontrollable.

This ability is exclusive to Stick War III.

History Stick War II: Order Empire The Marrowkai are first deployed into battle by the Chaos Empire in the stage Bone Pile: Marrowkai summon war. They continue to fight for the Chaos Empire in subequent stages.

In this depiction, the Marrowkai are presented as a group of spellcasters serving the Chaos Empire.

Order Order is an empire in the Stick War series. Usually taking the role of 'peacekeeper' within the world of Inamorta, the Order has fought armies of all kind, whether it rebellions in fits of rage, or mythical beings in a land far north from their own. Once following under the 'Way of Peace and Knowledge', was soon brought to conflict when the other countries grew hostile to one another. Taking it upon themselves to settle as the apex of the community, the Order initiates a conquest held throughout lower Inamorta to eliminate their aggressive and hostile competition.

The Order Empire was the first and only nation to conquer all factions including the Archidon, Swordwrath, Spearton, and the Magikill.

Currently, the Order and its ranks follow all known cultures and technologies of war; although they still take pride in their humble and peaceful origins as a nation of Miners.
