Season 57, Week 3
Tia
(Lufia 2: Rise of the Sinistrals)
 
Tia is an enterprising young lady. Her opponent is a monkey, but let me assure you that that does not implicate any monkey business going on during this match. After all, it's rather obvious what the outcome will be. The lady is more than just a shop owner: she's also the owner of a few potent spells and a nasty whip. And what better tool to tame a rowdy monkey than some good fireballs to the face and a whip to lash some discipline into him? Even if he scratches at Tia a little, she has more than enough healing spells at her disposal to easily brush off such pathetic swipes.

Sten may normally be comic relief in the DL, but after grabbing his first win ever, he’s finally proving that every dog(or monkey) has his day! After putting down an angel, a mere mortal should be a piece of cake. Tia does have full healing and some painful IP attacks, but she sorely lacks health or defense. With the ability to itemcast Atk up off of his Medusa Shield, Sten should be able to take Tia out in one hit, avoiding all of those pesky IPs attacks and her bevy of full healing. After finally tasting sweet victory, Sten is determined to make someone else the laughingstock of the arena!

This has been a special week for Sten. Not only did he defeat a divine being, he did so with style! Grace! Panche! He'll be repeating those efforts against Tia, and expecting the best. A grope and Sten should propel himself to victory!

Tia's love of whips is well known. Sten's inept planning is well known.

What isn't well known is that Tia had a pet monkey when she was a child, and she in fact didn't hate Sten. When the monkey appeared, she squealed, ran up to Sten, and hugged him as hard as she could. This doesn't sound like much, but Tia had been channeling the spirit of Elmyera. Three broken ribs, a cracked tail and a shocked crowd later, Tia put down Sten from her tremendously powerful hug. Sure, emergency personel had to be called in to drag Sten off and take him to a clinic for extensive treatment for his internal injuries. Sure, Sten lost the fight. Did he care? No. Someone actually -liked- him! Well, until Sten tried to ask her out on a date and she ran screaming for the nearest Godlikes to slaughter him. Being a beloved monkey only goes so far!
