Martial Art "Just a little more green here and...there. Finally this painting is done." Said a young 11 year old girl in red attire "Splendid work, Relm! Its exactly how I wanted it!" exclaimed the Owzer "Phew! I'm tired, can I go now? I agreed to do this painting, and I want to go home to Thamasa to live with the old man and Interceptor" said Relm a bit exhausted "But...I was hoping you'd stay and paint more pictures of Goddesses for this room." "No way! I promised to do this one painting, and it took a lot longer than I expected to get it perfect. And it even came alive and attacked us, we're just thankful my friends came and were able to kill that ugly transvestite demon Chardarnook." responded Relm "You know Relm, I get lonely here in this mansion. I feel more at ease when I have all these paintings, the more I have, the less lonely I feel. I'd really appreciate it..." Relm was unexpectedly taken in by a feeling of guilt, in that she couldn't just leave him alone. However, Relm's a clever little girl, and she thought of a good comprimise... "Oh...well...I have an idea! I know you like my work since all those Fuddy Duddies before me couldn't 'draw thier way out of a bucket' What if I were to find other good artists? Being one myself, I'm sure I could find one, you know, 'it takes one to know one'? Besides, its often a good idea to have several styles of painting in a room, just for contrast and such" Relm said, crossing her fingers behind her back "Hmm...well, Relm, I'll give you a week. Find whoever you can, and bring them back. If none of them suit my desires, then will you consider staying to finish the rest of this room?" Owzer said "Well, fine..." And thus, Relm left, and, for the first time, for something not direclty related to art, she was serious about her work. Relm went to the first place she could think of where hordes of arbitrary people of all Shape, Size, Age, Race, and Alignment meet: The RPGDL. Relm didn't care who subbed in for her, just as long that person had something resembling Artistic Talent. A week passed, and Relm had lived up to her promise and returned to Owzer's house "My my, Relm, so you've returned. Oh, and I see you've brought a few companions with you too? Who are these people?" "These are the potential fill ins for me, Owzer, surely at least one of them is good enough to suit your standards" Relm responded. There were three people standing behind Relm. The three introduced themselves one at a time, but that's boring, so we'll abbreviate. Fei Fong Wong, the Contact who, in a past life, was an amazing artist who drew the famous Nisan Portrait of Sophia, as well as inherited that artistic talent, had decided to come. Why might he come to this? Well, the options given to him at the time were either agree to help out Owzer, or join the Gear Battle Arena, which he was being forced into if he didn't have a good excuse. Knowing Fei, its obvious to see why he chose the former... The next was the seemingly young Guardian of Alent, Liete. She, like Relm, has the special ability to make her art come to life, as shown with her ability "Magical Art". It was that last part that sparked Relm's attention, and given that Liete needed something ot make herself happy, she accepted Relm's offer, in hopes she could find happiness through her art. Finally, we have Prince Ekaru Hoppa do pe Jean (aka Jean) of Sima Fort. Being French obviously has its advantages, and he's shown his enthusiasm in this area that even being imprisoned in jail, he can still draw pictures of nice beautifal days for the fun of it. When Relm said the word "art" he immidiatly agreed to tag along... Owzer was quite impressed at all of these people, but he couldn't decide who to choose. So, he decided the most logical method: An Art Contest! Each one, including Relm who was forced into this, is given an equal amount of time, at the same time, to paint any portrait they feel, and whoever Owzer likes best will win. Each one has thier own reasons for winning, or in Relm's case, she can't find it in herself to make a bad art job since it goes against her "morals", so they are each trying thier best. Who will win the Owzer's heart in the field of artistic prowess? |

Sir Alex A careful player of FF6 will notice one astonishing fact. Relm never loses. Ever. Especially not where art is concerned. And especially not to a physical manifestation of angst, a stoned frog and a Grandia character. Fei: 10 Liete: 7 Jean: 4 Relm: 11 Tylor H
