Jack Van Burace?
Ding ding ding!
1-Looks girly? Maybe, but bet you won't say that to my face.
The guy wears a ribbon in his hair. Not a hairband or anything, a frikkin' ribbon. But questioning the masculinity of a swordmaster is one of those things you just don't DO.
2-Chose between magic and tech? Sorry, you've got the wrong guy.
That would be like asking him to choose between Ceci and Rudy, and that's just not cool. Also, he uses neither one himself.
3-I've always been a big fan of good old human skill, myself.
Continuation of clue 2. He's the swordmaster, fights with nothing but his own skill.
4-I've been known to get good ideas from the oddest things. Not recently, though.
Referance to how Fast Draws are learned. In WA1, he'd get inspired by things which was cool. In ACF...he just finds old swords or something, which is kinda lame. Pity about ACF losing one of the really interesting things about the original.
And the clue I didnt' need to get to...
5-What the...? Where'd these two come from? Okay, I used to think I was fast...
Clue #5 means obvious time for me. Think anyone who's played ACF understands this one.
