Welcome, dear readers, to Aftermath Week of Season Twelve, here at the RPGDL! Four characters stand as triumphant, victorious champions of their division, soon to be added to the annals of the DL records. Just because this is aftermath week, though, doesn't mean all the excitement is over by any means! First, I'm sure you're dying to find out who the four champions are, so go check out the Results Page. Was Myria able to exact vengeance upon Fou-Lu? Did Auron slay his last minion of evil? Which mage conquered Middle? And was Lady Luck kind to Ronfar? Now, with that out of the way, head on over to the Arena and check out the multitude of exciting matches we've got lined up for you this week. The end of season team match is back in force, with one of the strongest set-ups on both sides of the field - can the Godlike runner-up pull through a victory? As well, make sure to try your hand at the re-rankings: Will some of the less successful division fighters fade into obscurity? Will some prove worthy of a higher division? Head on inside, dear readers, and decide their fate! Also, don't forget to stop by The RPG Strategy League, and check out what's going on in the World of Balance. Kefka's down, but not out yet, although a certain Ishtarian Legend might have something to say about that. Meanwhile, Locke and Celes embark on a daring mission to destroy the Empire's superweapon in Vector - success could finish the Empire off, but failure could mean the end of the world as they know it... And finally, stop on over by the RPGDL Forums, and register an account. It only takes a couple seconds, and it opens up a whole new world. Converse with staffers and fellow forum-goers on the status of the DL, and give us some input. We'd love to hear from you. Once again, it's time for Chisato Madison to take over, and bring you Behind the Scenes of the RPGDL: Ah…nothing like sitting in the special chair, with no psycho-nazi reporter to beat me up. Where exactly is Chisato anyway? No idea, but I’m enjoying it. Ahhh….feet up on the desk, just the way she doesn’t like it… Er…I’d watch where you put your feet. There are a lot of buttons on there that I think Chisato doesn’t even understand the function of. Oh pipe down, fish breath. What could possibly go… Aaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Blasted trap holes! I’ll get ye for this, Bowie! …as I said, what’s the worst that could happen? Are you telling me you don’t remember the multitudes of other times Chisato has come back after you usurped her position and thoroughly schooled you in physical combat? Well, he did suffer concussions after every one of those fights, so maybe he forgot. Eh…you’re right. Anyway, since she’s not here yet, why don’t we start the freak show? Best to get it over with fast. Sure. Bring out the victims! Victims? That would be you guys. …why victims? Because there’s a good chance that at least half of you aren’t going to make it out of here in one piece. Now, talk. I was robbed. I’m a girl, not a guy. Just because I’m an elf, doesn’t mean I’m androgynous. I’m going to go guard Budehec Castle! I lost my lucky coin before the match. Watch for my new TV series: Auron the Vampire Slayer, due out on DVD in a week. Think Positive! Mine power proved to be insufficient… Teehehehehehehehehe! I must seek out my arch-nemesis and destroy him! Not this crap again. Hey, he lost the fight as well, so don’t feel that bad. Oh, I’m not mad at him…it’s that imposter! The spikey-haired guy with the sword! He shall pay! The micropants shall yield no quarter to the monster! Indeed! How dare people think him sexier than moi! How the hell did he escape the Omega Weapon we keep in the basement? Well, he is Johnny Depp, after all. I mean, he can’t die yet: he’s got so many more movies to make. And I’m the sexiest man alive! I am therefore invincible! Well, going by that logic, I should be Overlord of the RPGDL. But, lo and behold, I’m not. Let go of the mirror, Narcissus. Is that all? Hm…I think you’re right: that’s all we wanted to get through this week, so…. …let’s push some buttons! … Er… Oh, it can’t do any real harm…let’s see. I like pink… I bet you do. Got a rainbow flag hanging from your car antenna? …so let’s push the pink button. *click* Hm? Er…nothing. Wait, I think I hear something coming this way… Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!! Hey now…someone walking above us. Must have fallen down the launching hole. It’s you! Prepare thyself! Ar! The hour of your death be at hand! *gulp* There you go Odin…there’s your violence for the week. Hm…I’m oddly satisfied. As am I. Now, let’s get the hell out of here before something happens that Chisato can blame us for. Alrighty. Well, this installment of Behind the Scenes if over. Tune in next week kiddies, for the start of Season Thirteen, only here at the RPGDL!
