...what are they? The (female) assassin's looks familiar, but I can't place it, and I don't really recognise the others. Or the male Ele's either.

I saw someone (Id on't remeber what forum ti was on) dig up a wikipedia article that suggests that the female assassin (or was it ritualist?) does a dance called "Skanking". This dance is a variant of the dance style used for Ska music.

The female Ritualist looks like yoga with a bit of bellydance thrown in to me.

I've stated it somewhere before on another thread....a guildie and I seem to think it's from Shrek..2 more than likely. There was a part where one character (gingerbread possibly) did a crazy dance very much like it. I plan to watch it later, being that I have the DVD, to see if I can find it. I will update after.

Male Ele is the "Elaine" dance from Seinfeld. Male Assassin brings back memories of "Breakin'," a cult classic early-80's break-dancing movie. (Ozone and Turbo ftw.)
