    Default Buffy Summers (BtVS) Vs The Engineer (Prometheus)

    Buffy Summers of Buffy the Vampire Slayer fame (TV feats only) goes up against the Engineer from Prometheus (movie feats only).

    The Engineer is larger, stronger, and more durable than Buffy, but Buffy is more nimble and skilled. How does she do in these fights?

    1) Buffy Vs The Engineer (unarmed).
    2) Buffy Vs The Engineer (Buffy has Olaf the Troll's hammer).
    3) Buffy Vs The Engineer (Buffy has the Slayer Scythe).

    How strong and durable is the Engineer? Never seen Prometheus.

    Also how fast?

    Basically, is a request for feats. ^_^

    Strength
    - Broke through an air-locked door.
    - Casual slap sent a human flying maybe 20 feet (might have killed said human actually, but I can't remember specifics on that one).
    - Picked up David, a moderately superhuman android, and ripped his head off.
    - Bearing in mind small dog-sized facehuggers could break humans arms, he wrestled with one considerably larger than him, with many tentacles, and gave it some problems with his strength.

    Durability
    - Tanks gunfire at close range with his torso armour (head and arms still exposed).
    - Survived his spaceship crash-landing and being crashed into by the eponymous Prometheus.
    - Survived the aforementioned giant tentacle alien, which was incredibly strong, for a short while.

    Speed
    - No feats of note. Basically a large man.

    It's all kind of hard to guage without seeing it, to be honest!

    So Buffy is going to have to keep getting in head shots? While Engineer, with significant armor, height, and mass advantage, just needs the grapple? Not liking Buffy's odds very much here....

    david is around buffy's strength level, considering how damn strong synthetics are in "alien"-verse. and the engineer was able to manhandle him like a child.

    unarmed doesn't go well for buffy.

    armed, she might do better but she can't afford to get grabbed or hit by him.

    I'm thinking if he's armored to boot he's too much for Buffy to beat unarmed.

    Weapons? Yeah, she's looking a whole lot better. Buffy was capable of injurying a weakened Glory with Olaf's hammer, and her axe-thingy is a blade.

    And she's not only more skilled than this guy (apparently), but a whole lot faster.

    I can see Buffy taking 2 and 3, for sure.
