Justin (Grandia) |
|||
Oh boy! It's been over twenty seasons since Justin's last appearance, and a lot has happened since then! New Parm's greatest warrior has been on countless adventures with Feena and his friends, including Rune! His skills are immensely improved, his spirit is as strong as ever! And testing his newly found powers on a meanie like Reno's just the way to get back into the groove of DL adventures. The Turk lacks for much in the way of durability or offense, relying on Neo Turk Light and a lame pyramid trick to get by. However, there is nothing that a cheerful soul can't achieve! Justin's natural mental toughness (and a status blocker!) mean he resists the Turk's foolish tricks! It's an easy win after that, as an empty suit like Reno can't dare to match swords or spirits with a true Adventurer! |

Reno's never been what you'd call a good guy. While a far cry for the supervillainy that is the norm for RPG antagonists, this seemingly easygoing secret agent is nevertheless ruthless and callous - as both Don Corneo and the entirety of Sector 7 can attest to. So if his job description this week involves crushing the spirit of a promising young teenage boy, well, tough break. The Turk will have little trouble overwhelming his foe, using his plethora of status attacks. Neo Turk Light and Electromag Rod could certainly tilt the match his way, but why mess around? The true professional would first go for his most efficient tactic: encasing Justin in a Pyramid and claiming victory instantly. This plan of attack is simple, brutal, effective, and perhaps most importantly to certain espers, it keeps Justin from talking. It's just another job for Reno, and he isn't a man to accept failure. |
Infinity Dragon Another Justin match, another bout of planning for Justin's arch nemesis, Rune. With a pyrrhic victory over Justin and Feena during the previous battle, Rune was poised to finally achieve total victory. Rune was doing his planning and scheming over a cup of Starman Bucks coffee at the DL Cafe. "Aha!" exclaimed Rune "I shall enhance Reno's Pyramid ability by enhancing it with the architectural and engineering prowess of the ancient Egyptians!" With that bit of insight, Rune began researching. Unfortunately for Rune, he had announced his intentions out loud; resident Trickster God, Loki, happened to overhear Rune and quickly hatched his own counterplan. --- "So...apparently, the Egyptians were aided in the construction of the Pyramids by alien lifeforms with advanced technology." Rune mused to Bowman and Kyra. "This means I must research and contact these aliens in order to enhance Reno's Pyramid. That imbecile Justin shall not win this time!" "Uh...how will strengthening Reno's Pyramid help if Justin blows Reno apart with one attack?" Bowman inquired. "The enhanced Pyramid will shield Reno from all attacks!" "..." "Master Rune has though of everything, of course!" piped in Kyra. "If you say so." --- "So anyways, that pompous fool Rune has decided to research a way to improve Reno's Pyramid. Poor fool, he's going to have a hard time now!" cackled Loki. "Uh...why is that?" asked Justin. "I replaced all the books in the DL library with conspiracy theory books! Rune will be reading the most crackpot ideas ever thought up, and he'll believe them all!" Loki explained, barely containing his laughter. "But...why help me?" "Because, frankly, you're an idiot. Your idiocy helps me create chaos and trickery. Rune, on the otherhand, believes in logical order and stands against all that I believe in. You are the natural choice." "Makes sense" said Feena, nodding sagely. "But Feeeeenaaa, this guy is bad! We can't accept his help!" "Oh shush. Remember, it's Rune. He's trying to cheat to make you lose, accepting help from Loki is only fair now. Now go adventure and train to be ready for the match with Reno." "I suppose. Let's go Feena!" --- Finally, the day of the match arrived. Reno and Justin stepped into the ring. Rune sat back in the stands, a strange stone in his hand. "What's that you're holding?" asked Kyra, leaning her head on Rune's shoulder. "A Channeling Stone. I found it in some weird place called Silent Hill. It summons aliens." Just as the match started, Rune stood up and used the Channeling Stone and was soon enveloped in a cylinder of light. "Hahaha! It's working! Your days are numbered Justi----." Rune's words were cut off as he and Kyra suddenly disappeared, transported somewhere by the stream of light. --- "RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNE" boomed an alien voice. "What the hell was that?" asked Rune as he sat up in a darkened room. "Rune...Runerunerunerunerunerunerune" the booming voice continued. "Uh...Rune...? Where are we? I want to go back" implored Kyra. "I think we're on an alien ship. Now we just need to find an alien that can improve Reno's Pyramid!" Suddenly the lights turned on, and Rune found himself face-to-face with a monstrous, pulsating red creature. "Ruuuune...let's be friendsssssss!" --- "So...Reno was knocked out by a single Heaven and Earth Cut, nothing surprising there, but what happened to Rune?" inquired Orlandu. "I'm certain he would have tried something." "Well don't look at me" answered Loki "I didn't do anything. Last I heard, he was making friends with Giygas. Perhaps he was too busy? Anyways, I'm off to...lunch." Justin: 45 |
