Season 28, Week 2
Thomas
(Suikoden III)
 
Thomas, as the lord of Budehuc Castle, understands the hardships of dealing with ironheads - albeit not in the same vein as the hotblooded Karayan Lulu. However, this can't stop a struggle for victory in the arena. Thomas may appear a bit clumsy with a sword, but make no mistake: he is quite skilled at strike-parry maneuvers, being nearly immune to physical damage. This dexterity shall serve him very well against the Karayan's dagger swipes. So, for his castle and his friends, Thomas will fight. And win.

Lulu is talented with a knife, spirited beyond the comprehension of stupid Ironheads. And he’s going to put his Karayan spirit to the test this week. He even shares the same world with today’s opponent; the young and benevolent leader of Budehuc Castle. Although Thomas isn’t as weak as his laid-back and peaceful nature indicates, he is still easily exploitable for the more battle-hardened Lulu. Evasion is Thomas’ only advantage, and he can’t hide and dodge forever before the knife finally gets his hide.

It was considered to be something of a snoozer match. A clearcut fight between castmates and young men. Certainly nothing that would end in carnage. That all changed when Lulu ran up to Thomas, whispered something into his ear, and shoved a piece of paper. Before anyone could hear what was said, Thomas screamed, and charged Lulu. Blood quickly splattered the arena wall. Lulu stood in the center of a horrific pile of maimed limbs and gore, obviously dead from the attack. Nearby stood Thomas, covered head to toe in blood. His sword was still in it's sheath. Without saying another word, he left the arena.

Later on, it was found that Lulu, in his infinite wisdom, had called Cecile a Zidane lover, and provided a rather poorly done picture to 'prove it'. Luca Blight later rated the match a 10/10 fight, and gave Thomas the Iron Cross of the Highlands for noble work in 'slaughtering a really, really stupid pig.'
