Historical Who Am I Riddles

[Cookiegod]

I'd need a couple of days to think of something, so don't expect anything before friday. But if someone has a good riddle and wants to go, feel free to take over

[ggggtotalwarrior]

I’m fine with letting you keep the floor

[R.P. Gryphus]

Ok I'd like to try! Should not be hard!

I came into this world as a lowborn, yet by the time I died my name was feared across many dozen realms.

Even though I seen more battles than Julius Ceasar and travelled farther than Alexander the Great, I faithfully served my lord as his loyal servant until my death.

I am also the only one to have conquered the rus winter, where Hitler and Napoléon have failed.

With all that I have accomplish, I have survived by many decades all the great names above.

Who am I?

[ggggtotalwarrior]

Subutai?

[R.P. Gryphus]

Yeah. x) I knew this one would be easy, maybe I was too obvious hehe

[ggggtotalwarrior]

Honestly the only thing that gave it away was mentioning Russia. That is pretty much a giveaway that you’re referring to a Mongol IMO. I can write a new one or we can wait on Cookie still because he should have first rights to a new one if he wants it

[Kilo11]

I had the same thought. Saying he beat the Rus is an automatic Tsubodai in my book. But without that line, it would have been a good hard one, with a fair bit of head-scratching. At any rate, a good opening salvo in this game, Takeda!

[R.P. Gryphus]

Dang, was so close to be good! I didn't know it was that obvious, but I should have know, especially among other passionate of history.

Here's another one then, I do believe it will be more difficult, and if I'm overstepping here, just ignore me :

My might is so great that a popular saying was created to infer it.

I take what I want whenever I want it, even if it cost the lives of my fathers.

I am so mighty that I once stopped a battle with a single arrow shot.

Yet with all my might, I died a shameful death.

Who am I?

[ggggtotalwarrior]

I did a lot of looking into the archery line and I’m at an impasse so I’m going to guess Minamoto no Tametomo simply because he allegedly won a battle with a single shot

[R.P. Gryphus]

I don't think for him to go forward in his ambition he had to kill his fathers. And I'm not sure seppuku is a shameful death, I think a warrior retain his honor and reputation when he commits seppuku. Anyway no it is not him.

So here's another hint :

I am a notorious kinslayer and my infamous tendancy to betray my masters got me killed.

[Cookiegod]

Is it this handsome feller here?

[R.P. Gryphus]

It is He is obviously part of my actual AAR.

[ggggtotalwarrior]

Who is that

[R.P. Gryphus]

None other than the mighty Lü Bu (the picture shared by Cookiegod is an opera actor portraying him).

Takeda forgot to gimme rep
but still Im gonna drop my rap
Boom ratatata boom boom
Boom ratatata boom boom
had my fathers name
but my wife's was better
she had more fame
so don't upset her
everyone knew my chick
to be bloody thick
heavy G is my gun
Hey that was fun
maybe a bit in vain
but let's do it again
Boom ratatata boom boom
Boom ratatata boom boom

[Kilo11]

The stuff about the wife just makes me think Kardashian. So I'm gonna say Kanye.

[Cookiegod]

No with boom boom I meant actual explosions and with bloody actually bloody and I stopped rapping about his wife sooner than you think.

The ratatata is probably slightly inaccurate though, I'll admit.

[Lord Oda Nobunaga]

Cool avatar. Are you Cookie VIII now?

[Cookiegod]

Yes.
