Week 4 - Quarterfinals




Ghaleon (Lunars) Ghaleon vs Zophar Zophar (Lunar2)

Infinity Dragon
The match began as expected, Zophar charging his Fate Storm while Ghaleon put up his Chaos Shield. Zophar's Fate Storm went off, blowing the Chaos Shield to Kingdome Come. Ghaleon simply smiled and used his double-cast to blast Zophar with two equally powerful Fate Storms.
"You see, I existed in Lunar 2 as well as you, and I have a Fate Storm spell. Simply put the two together and this was what you see." Ghaleon explained to the the battered remains of his opponent.

Ghaleon: 16
Zophar: 4

Sir Alex
This match seems awfully familiar. Zophar, however world-destroying he may be, lacks the tools to take out Ghaleon if the Magic Emperor plans carefully and plays well. And oh, he'll plan, all right. Ghaleon doesn't like getting beaten. He won't let it happen again.




Choko (AtLC) Choko vs Albedo Albedo (XS)

Zenthor
When Albedo knew who he was fighting, he was, ironically, as giddy as a schoolgirl. Not only would his restriction order be nullified for the duration of the match, but he was also fighting the cutest and most evil little girl in the entire RPGverse. It was fate.


But his old pickup lines would not work on this little devil. The daughter of Satan should have class, the intelligence to see through his rip-off-the-head-to-get-the-girl tactic. `But Choko must be mine,` he mused to himself.


When Satan's favourite daughter made her way to the arena, screaming, "It's Choko Time!", she did not find the expected masses of fans screaming and cheering. Most of the fans saw this match's "potential" and avoided it. Albedo was standing next to a table adorned with candles. "Ah, ma belle peche... you're early."


Choko looked around, confused. "Pedo man scare people off?"


"Ma peche, please, sit, sit..." Albedo pulled out a chair, and seated the bewildered Choko. Albedo took his seat across from Choko.


Choko felt a chill go up her spine. 'The Pedo man', as she called him, wasn't coming onto her as he came onto the other little girls, but still had the depraved look in his eyes.


"Allow me to speak freely, ma peche," Albedo started. "I know you're really... older than I, not really a little girl... but it doesn't matter to me. I want you, ma belle peche, and I will have you. If you come willingly, I will forfeit and you will win, if I must subdue you like the waves of others before you, you lose. So, what do you sa---" Albedo was cut off by Choko jumping out of her chair and kicking Albedo in the face.


"Ma belle peche, you hurt me so," Albedo stood up, and began laughing. "Fine, I no longer wish to have many hours of pedophilistic enjoyment with little girls!" Though this statement only bewildered Choko for a few seconds, it was long enough for Albedo to get close enough to grab Choko's face, and begin draining the life force from her body. As her body went limp, he stroked Choko's head with his free hand, and flung her over his shoulder, and walked out of the empty arena, laughing at the top of his lungs. She wasn't dead, just unconscious, but, soon, she may very well wish she was.

Choko: 4
Albedo: 9




Altima (FFT) Altima vs Hiro Hiro (Lunar2)

Sir Alex
Triple Sword helps Hiro a lot, here. It puts Altima into her speedy Arch Angel form, making his death that much faster. With roughly 3 times the HP of the next best creature in her world(s), Altima is quite durable enough for my tastes

Altima: 20
Hiro: 3


Red (Saga) Red vs Shadow Shadow (FF6)

DragoonJay
Red learned from last week and entered the match already in Alkaiser form. Sadly, however, he didn't bother to research his opponent.





Needless to say, he was completely unprepared to find that his opponent had already been in the ring since Red's own entrance, as was shown by the large number of projectiles embedded in his torso.

Red: 4
Shadow: 16

Eternalspirit
As the two fighters stepped onto the arena, something very.. odd.. happened, after Red changed into Alkaiser. The loud screaming and cheering was cut short by an oh so hated theme song. "GO GO Power Rangerssss! Mighty Morphin' Power Rangerrrrrrrrrs!


Yes, folks, the power rangers showed up on the scene, apparently convinced that Alkaiser was a long lost power ranger, and he should join them on their quest to fight evil. Obviously dissatisfied with Alkaiser's response when he said no, they started to be more diplomatic. To put it short, Shadow got the win, and Red got all the porno mags he could ever want

Meeplelard
As much as I wanna make a creative write up, I just can'tthink of anything beyond that as strong as Alkaiser is, his attacks are worthless when you can't hit what you can't see, which is exactly what Shadow's Invis Edge does. And you can't beat what you can't see.





Philia Felice (ToD) Philia Felice vs Jibril Jibril (SO2)

Infinity Dragon
How in the blue blazes has Philia made it this far? No matter, one Eating-vortex from now she'll be regretting her win over Eiko.

Philia Felice: 4
Jibril: 10


Strago Magus (FF6) Strago Magus vs Demi Demi (PS4)

Meeplelard
Strago has come in this match confident. FIrst, he defeated Hahn, a young scientist, in a battle of wits, proving that regardless of your proffession, Age always is the advantage.


Next up, he fought Kyra, an Esper. Normally, most would respond "What is an Esper?" but Strago didn't. In fact, he simply asked a fellow teamate of his, Terra, who happens to half esper, learned everyone of thier weaknesses, and applied it.


So...now Demi. Unfortunatly, Demi is A LOT older than Strago, so she's obviously the more wise, nad unfortunatly, Strago does not know any fellow androids, or even something with a mechanical part. No, he had to rely on Edgar who, given that Demi is female, naturally didn't give very good advice.


What did Strago do? Simple! Using his old Age to his advantage (despite being, oddly, the younger one in the contest), he faked having a heart attack, and was dragged off the arena for Medical Attention...Thus, Strago managed to get out of the match without a scratch.


Still didn't change the fact that Demi won though...

Strago Magus: 6
Demi: 15

Pipe Dreamer
Demi had two methods of winning: the "Raijin method" and the "Elena method."


Much to the relief of the RPGDL staff, she chose the former.





chaos (XS) chaos vs Futch Futch (Suikos)

Hunter Sopko
Futch is a normal Suikoden bishie. However, that means that he is far underdressed for chaos' Arctic Blast.

chaos: 19
Futch: 1


Marivel Armitage (WA2) Marivel Armitage vs Elly van Houten Elly van Houten (XG)

DragoonJay
"I don't like Gears or fighting, but that doesn't mean I won't try my best," said Elly quietly, readying her weapon.


"Hmmph. You're hardly worth my time, but I guess there's no point in giving up," said Marivel brashly, smirking.


"I guess nobody told you that I can put people to sleep," Elly noted.


"I guess nobody told you that I can prevent status changes," said Marivel.


"Well, I have magic that works pretty well."


"When it works at all, you mean."


"I... I'll show you!" cried Elly.


"Show me what? Your finite frailty? Your pathetic human weakness? I'm a Crimson Noble, baby. I eat people like you for breakfast - literally.


"Besides," finished Marivel, "unlike yourself, I happen to like Gears."


And as Elly looked up to see the form of Asgard 2, she could only wish she had given up.

Marivel Armitage: 13
Elly van Houten: 3

Infinity Dragon
Status Lock nulls Elly's sleep. Life Drain counters Elly's laughable damage. Asgard 2 smashes Elly into little pieces. That is, of course, if Canceller or Guillotine don't kill the Solarian outright.


Battle of the Wussy Pets!
vs
~mc


Superaielman
Boco and Lucied put on a fight for the ages. Kicks, lighting bursts, counters, healing... it was a sight to see. However, what the two fighting pets didn't see was the sleeping Tiamat that had been woken up by their scuffle.

By the time their masters had been altered to the monster, the two pets had managed to make a tasty treat for the slumbering monster.


Luceid: 5
Boco: 9
Owners: 11

AAA
One thing you never notice about Chocobos is that they are fairly intelligent creatures, and that, throughout the great history of catching the yellow bird, they never appear alone. From Final Fantasy 5 to Final Fantasy 10, Chocobo's are always surrounded by a few of their mates or stronger monster friends, and while some could take this as a sign of cowardice, more than likely it's simply a need to have superiority in numbers.


Lucied, knowing nothing of this, blindy charged Boco. Little did he know that some of Boco's Finath River buddies happened to be in the area, and with a "Wark!" from Boco, they quickly reached their friend.


Now Lucied, while not as strong as one would think a Guardian, is definitly a match for Boco. But, 8 Chocobo's, including some with Choco Ball and Choco Meter? And Healing? And speed? I think you know what happened.


Lucied, since desire has always existed, quickly revived and headed off for a more safe climate. And if Ramza saw a certain gleam in Boco's eye after he mounted him for the long ride home, he never said anything. Anastasia, for some reason, was far too tired to search for Lucied, but he came back anyway, tail between his legs and a certain knowledge of Chocobo's that made him a bit more weary of them.

Hunter Sopko
Lucied's favorite brand of dogfood uses chocobo as it's main ingredient. I'm sure he'll love feasting upon the real thing after he mercilessly slaughters Ramza's stupid bird.

DragoonJay
The non-verbal posturing was halted for a moment as Anastasia's unannounced second guest came in.


"Now you play nice, and try and scope out anything valuable we could get out of this place, you hear?"


"Got it, dood," replied the Prinny.


As Laharl walked through the door to, er, meet with Ana, Lucied and Boco resumed their argument.


"Wark wark!" "I can speak, you know. I don't see any point to carrying on such a pointless affair with you. Eat death, you overgrown chicken!"


For those of you who don't know, prinnies look like penguins. And they can be very, VERY touchy about their appearance, especially when they think they've been slighted by purple wolf-like beings.


"You're gonna pay for that, dood!"

___ "So what's all the ruckus going on out there?" asked Ramza.


"Who uses the word 'ruckus' anymore? Where'd you dig this guy up, Hicksville?" asked Laharl.


"Oh, I'm sure it's nothing. And it's your turn, Ramza," replied the demure and totally innocent (Really! Honest!) Lady Valeria.


"Of course. Do you have any threes?"


"Go fish."
