Season 28, Week 2
Ruprecht
(Star Ocean: The Second Story) 		 
As one of the self-proclaimed Wisemen of God, Ruprecht's mission is clear: spread the faith by spreading his foe's guts all over the arena floor! Locke Cole is but a minor speed bump. Nonetheless, a spectacular show must be had, all for the glory of annihilation! Ruprecht's mix of magic is the magically inept thief's bane: Protection will reduce Locke's boomerangs to mildly annoying mosquito bites, and Growth will allow the Wiseman to pummel his victim with a mighty Green Wave of Death to his heart's content. Not really much of a challenge for one so devout in his faith, but converting has to start somewhere.

 The treasure hunter is out to show the DL what a Final Fantasy hero can do. Locke’s first foe, a scrubby Wise Man, shouldn’t be much of a problem. Although Locke’s damage and durability aren't the best, he boasts top-notch speed. He runs circles around Ruprecht, and that's what really matters. Locke’s Valiant Knife grows more powerful as his HP goes down as well; Ruprecht’s attacks will just make Locke that much more dangerous. It may be a close shave, but Locke will definitely snatch the win. For the Returners! For his love!

Ruprecht walked into the ring. Locke still hadn't showed up, and the spectators were getting impatient.

"I, Ruprecht, do hereby forfeit the match," Ruprecht said, and walked out, giving Locke the match.

Once he got out of sight, 'Ruprecht' removed his clothes and, whistling a jaunty tune, wandered off to hunt some treasure.

Meanwhile, the real, stark naked, Ruprecht finally got up the nerve to make a break from the Arena's locker room and back to his quarters, where he could get some more clothes. After all, everyone else would be in the Arena stands, so he wouldn't encounter anyone on the way back, right?

With his confidence thus bolstered, Ruprecht slammed the door open and ran... smack into Lenneth. In front of a huge crowd of RPGDL females returning from the disappointingly short 'match.' And a horrified Lezard Valeth.

The resulting violence was of a sort usually only experienced by Zidane, and will therefore be summarized simply as 'Legendary.'

Ruprecht: 29
Locke Cole: 56

Ruprecht and Locke go at it, Locke at first glance looks to be a clear loser, he's from what looks like a late 19th/early 20th century period, isnt a machine, or quite as powerful, but he does have dispel, cure3, and life3, all of which should be useful, though dispel isnt needed it will nontheless make the match go by faster, and Ragnarok would cast flare, causing additional damage, and the Marvel shoes and economizer should prove to be valuable.
