Moving to another website!
Heya, this is Mayu Miyuki, the primary admin of the Aselia Wiki. Thanks for your edit to the Tales of the Abyss (Anime) page.

I'm just here to let you know that our community plans to move to a new website. This site will not be part of the Wikia network, ending our affiliation with Wikia, and we are in the process of finalizing the site itself. If you wish to know more, please see this forum thread for more info.

If you have any other questions, please leave a message on my talk page, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you!

Sigh.
Okay, I guess you never even attempted to look at our Manual of Style to see what our policies are regarding the specific formatting of pages and the acceptable way to write text when contributing to this wiki. I don't know if you are aware of it or not, but pretty much EVERY edit you have ever made has been either fixed by me or reverted due to it being unfixable or outright forbidden due to speculation or other garbage like that. Imagine my reaction when I see that YOU have created a new page for Tales Musou, which is in fact the third time the page has been created because the previous two people also failed to format the page correctly or add anything relevant enough to make a page worth existing.

Fortunately for you, I am tired of deleting the page over and over again, since people like you will just create the page again and again. It's a waste of time, not for you, but for ME. So guess what? I wasted more time today instead of getting ready for work in like 30 minutes, to edit the page so that it can be at least presentable enough while following our rules as established in the MoS. So many fixes had to be made on that page, and since it would make me feel better to whine and complain, let me list them for you.

No contractions are allowed, like "there's" instead of "there is". No second-person pronouns are allowed, like "your" instead of "the player's". The page was missing templates and categories necessary for page accessibility. The page lacks links to other pages necessary for page accessibility. There were so many instances of conversational speech which had to be eliminated, not to mention a lot of filler text as well. And since this wiki does not allow walkthrough content of any sort, things like the button presses and how to activate "Hi-Ougi" (it's supposed to be "hi ougi", note the lower-case letters and lack of hyphen) had to be deleted. The character list had to be reformatted since even the antagonists are playable, you misspelled Cress's name since we use localized names on this wiki only, and you misspelled Reid's last name too for some odd reason. And that picture of Jude and Milla's dual mystic arte belongs on their respective pages, since it relates to them, NOT to the game or even to their mystic artes.

Add to that the flurry of grammatical issues, and it seems to me like the page was just barely worth fixing. Normally I would have deleted the entire thing, but there was actually more information than there had been during my past deletion attempts. But I do not want to have to continue with my edit-stalking of your contributions, almost all of which require a drastic overhaul of rewriting, such as Jude being one of the few to fight with his "hands and feet" when Yuri, Luke, and Stahn also do so-- Stahn even has the blatant G Gundam reference Shining Finger in the form of Shakkouken... which translates loosely to Shining Finger as well. Most of the time, I would rather delete whatever you add due to you apparently being misinformed or outright wrong, like yesterday's claim that Yuri's movelist is more unique than that of other characters. You don't seem to realize that this can be retconned as soon as another game is released, and this is the way it should be, so we don't ever get "unique" characters with themed arte names which are unusable by other characters in the future, like Richter or Innes or Hisui. Hatred does not even describe my fury for their truly "unique" quality. I am absolutely glad that Kyle is no longer as "unique" as Yuri is in your mind, and I eagerly await the day when all of Yuri's artes are used by future characters so that he can no longer be "unique" as well. But that is my unpopular view on artes; you can learn more by searching for my posts on the official Tales forums.

You're right.
But some of the stuff is true. Janice Kawaye was the voice of Alice, and as I found out a while ago, not just her. She also voiced Presea, filling in for Tara Strong in Dawn of the New World. And Tara Sands was not only the voice of Genis, she also voiced Seles Wilder, one of the female nobles in the event "Alice's Past Part 4" and Verius. I heard it all with my own ears and compared their voices to other characters those two va's have done. Not to mention the dub cast for Tales of Vesperia: The First Strike is now official. She's probably just under pressure, and I'm the cause. If she's that stressed maybe she should retire, but before that, she'll need a successor. Someone who can take over her job while she enjoys some much needed vacation time.

But I digress, I worked hard, I know Dawn of the New World inside and out, so I know what I'm taking about. I even tried to have someone send an e-mail to the voice actresses to confirm the roles, But I couldn't. But I'll try this weekend but who knows if I even get a reply.

I just don't know what she wants of me. I try to add info the best I can, but she rejects it, even when I put up official sources. What should I do?

 * I see your point. However, comparing doesn't cut it. Voice actors are skillful. They can remake or redo their voices into a completely different voice, especially Japanese voice actors (seiyuus). some of them have similar voices. For example, I watched Hetalia recently and I saw it's wikinet. At first, the voice of the character named Prussia was believed widely to be Subaru Kimura. However, it was revealed to be a different seiyuu. People's ears are not that dependable. No wonder Mayu keep asking you to bring official sources.


 * In case you don't know, I also know a lot about Tales of the Heroes: Twin Brave. But I also gathered another information to support my edits (although in the end it was re-edited though :P). If you say she's under pressure, I agree with that. Anyway, what kind of official sources do you give to her?

I was gonna give her an e-mail from one of the uncredited VA's about the roles s/he had in DotNW. And even though they sound different I can still tell. For example, I had no idea who Lisa Ortiz. I watched episode 3 of the original Yu-gi-oh! which had Serenity Wheeler. I looked up her voice actress and listened to past anime with her as either a lead or a supporting character. from then on out I could identify her voice in a character before it becomes official. In fact, I can do that with most any voice actor/actress. If you see Pokemon Wikia you'll notice that on a certain day I update a character yet to be dubbed with their english VA the moment I hear, match and update it.

I know what you're getting at though about VA's. Honestly I think Tara Sands did a great job voicing Genis after Colenne O' Shaughnessy. Something like an interview article worked well for Laura Bailey and Sam Reigal. But I totally forgot about that dub cast article for First Strike that was official.

And I also bet Mayu's gonna be mad at me for pulling a stunt like getting rid of the Manual of Style. Care to tell me the worst case senario.

Another opinion is about one of the antagonists in Tales of Xillia, Presa. In the Alvin article it said Presa was a cat-like woman. I looked at her picture and noticed the kneepads looked more like foxes than cats so I did research and it said foxes in culture are related to trickery and they possess magic powers, which more or less fit Presa to a tee. If you don't believe me, look at this:



Take a close look at the kneepads. Do they look like foxes to you?


 * GamerGirlzPS2 (talk) 17:43, May 17, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hmm, honestly, I think it would be best to write about the VAs when the official's is up. Also, it would be great if you find the articles which contain the interview with the VAs. If you give those kinds of sources, Mayu shouldn't erase them. Or maybe the sources that you gave her is not trustworthy enough. There are some sites like that.


 * About Preza being a cat-like being or not, I wouldn't edit the page just for that vague information. It's not clear yet whether or not she's a cat-like creature or a fox-like human. This is sucks because in order to write a proper article, we need an official reply which says what Preza really is. Oh and the kneepads did look like foxes. Sorry if this reply didn't satisfy you. I will help you time to time since I've been monitoring other wiki users.


 * Oh yeah, about the VAs for Tales of Vesperia: The First Strike, why don't you look it up in the official website?


 * GamerGirlzPS2 (talk) 21:16, May 17, 2012 (UTC)


 * Worst case scenario for deleting the MoS is a 1-week ban for vandalism. In fact, that is exactly what you have done, and I will serve you a warning on your own user talk page shortly, which is FAR MORE LENIENCY than you deserve. I really don't understand how this flies over Winxfan's head every time, but I have given this awful user so many opportunities and so much leniency that is simply undeserved. I should have banned you ages ago, and now that I have a reason to do so, I won't. Why? Doesn't that make me ineffective as an admin, who can't even control the users of the wiki she deals with? And why am I even giving you another chance to screw up everything on this site? Cross the line again and you will get that ban you seem to want so much, as now you don't even seem to be satisfied with adding garbage on purpose - now you want to vandalize the wiki out of some perceived self-righteousness which is probably the result of me empowering you at all.


 * Byakuren Hijiri (talk) 14:42, May 17, 2012 (UTC)


 * Edit - Scratch that, no, I will ban Winxfan. I'm not going to be playing the favorites game. There must be swift and just punishment for all aspects of vandalism, and this includes deleterious edits. The first ban is one week long. Thinking this whole issue over actually gives me the realization that this ban is necessary, as Winxfan is not a reliable user and this irredemptionist act only shows the poor soul's true nature.


 * Byakuren Hijiri (talk) 14:51, May 17, 2012 (UTC)


 * Whoa, that's a bit harsh. But it's a good punishment. Though, I think you should endure your temper a bit. We were in odds back then. But our odds are settled now so I don't mind it anymore. I'll try to convince Winxfan once he's back from the ban that he needs to read the Manual of Style. Is that fine?


 * GamerGirlzPS2 (talk) 22:01, May 17, 2012 (UTC)

You're right.
I know. It's just this wikia's rule about needing first sources frustrates the heck out of not just me, but everyone. We finally learn the identity of the english voice actor of Tear Grants and no one can do a thing about it without confirmation.

At Pokemon Wikia, we didn't need that. I wanted to see if what they said was true or not like how Lisa Ortiz was Rochelle in Roll on Pokemon or how Amy Birnbaum was Alice Telesu in A Crowning Achievement. I watched both those episodes and both of those characters were voice by Tara Jayne.

I know my ears don't count as a reliable source but it's true.

And I have been a great help. I did Play TotA and made articles about the locations, but I had them proofread by Moviebaby so he could fix up my info.

And I just got Tales of Vesperia and Tales of the World Radiant Mythology.

(sigh), If only Wendee Lee herself was a member of this wiki she could set things straight. She was the Voice Director of the localized Tales games after all, and she was a few characters herself.

But I suppose I wouldn't want to clutter Movie Baby's page with half-finished articles.

I was being childish for having others do work I could be doing myself. But the thing about Nicole Karrer being Tear Grants was Letdragon's info so I figure why doesn't he get the info himself?

Anyway, I apologize to you, Mayu, and Movie for my behavior. I shouldn't have lashed out the way I did.

And Gamer, you are welcome to join Pokemon Wiki and Winx Wiki.

First of all, I'm female. Second of all, I was the one who told you to start publishing your information on my talk page so that you wouldn't create new pages with poor content, writing, and grammar mechanics. There was nothing wrong with that - it's this unbelievable obsession you have with who voiced who. No matter how positive you are about it, we still can not list it without the proper, verified source. Do you know why? Firstly, people make mistakes. One could be absolutely certain a character is voiced by a certain voice actor, but be wrong. It's happened before. Secondly, there are legal issues. I believe it's been stated before that some voice actors aren't allowed to disclose who they have voiced, and doing so without their permission could be risky. Not to mention, going back to the first point, if we happened to be wrong, then that could lead to more problems. In other words, it's not that we don't believe or agree with you - it's that we take precautions for accuracy. Unfortunately, some voice actors will never be verified or listed because such an accurate source may never exist. Moviebaby 15:22, June 25, 2012 (UTC)

Oh. It's just that what Letdragon said made a bit of sense to me. But you are right. Btw, did any of you know Tear's Japanese voice actress has a full name: Yukana Nogami.

And I apologize to you too Movie. You have been a good friend.

You'll definitely hate me just for putting in the new english VA's for First Strike, which comes out tomorrow. I hope you get a copy for research. It's not me passing on dirty work. It's just a fact I would like to point out. BTW, I got Radiant Mythology and Vesperia for my birthday.

We should talk more on your talk page.

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 00:37, June 26, 2012 (UTC)

Not sure
Is Behind the Voice Actors a first sources site? If not Mayu would not accept it.

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 11:16, June 26, 2012 (UTC)

What I mean is, is this an official, first sources site?

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 12:30, June 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * Ah, sorry I didn't reply your message. I've been busy updating the Tales of Xillia 2 page, and busy with my fanfiction. About it being first source or not, unfortunately, I'm not quite sure about it. I'll try to find some other site.


 * GamerGirlzPS2 15:16, June 28, 2012 (UTC)

You too?!
I'm writing a Tales Fanfic too. A sort of Symphonia 3. Check it out:

Five years had passed since the project of drawing Mana into the Ginnungagap had started. Emil Castagnier and his friend, Marta Lualdi had lived in peace and got married. Little did they know that a new threat was about to begin. A threat that took 15 years in the making...

It was early morning. Emil was asleep when all of a sudden he heard a noise sounding like a cry for help. Emil went off to investigate. Marta woke up and decided to follow Emil. He soon found a girl crying in the woods holding a doll.

"Are you ok?" Asked Emil. He then took the girl and embraced her.

"You're safe." said Emil.

The girl smiled an evil grin and said "Can't say the same for you." Then two monsters appeared out of nowhere and attacked. One of the monsters slashed Emil but did not hit any vital organs.

"What's the meaning of this?" asked Emil.

"I'm going to kill all humans for how they treat my family." said the girl. The monster was about to strike when who should appear but Richter Abend.

"YOU! You killed more of my family!" said the girl.

"I don't have time to play with you." said Richter "I just came by to drop off something for Emil and bring along a friend of yours." Richter threw an orange jewel at Emil. It was a Centurion's Core, but not just any core, it was the very thing that sparked the Vanguard 5 years ago: Solum's Core. Marta then hatched the core. The core then dug into the earth and used the Mana to create a new body made of rock, dirt, wood, stone and sand. The result was a muscular giant made of the Earth itself.

"I am Solum, Centurion of Earth." said the giant. Then another girl riding a giant doll appeared.

"ANISE TATLIN!" said the girl.

"You should've stayed dead Gloomietta!" said Anise.

"STOP CALLING ME THAT!" said the girl. Then the girls scleras became blood red and she began to attack violently.

"I have to stop this!" said Emil. Emil soon realized he forgot his sword at the house and Marta never got her spinner. Solum then cast Ground Dasher and split the earth between Anise and the girl. Ending the battle.

Solum then bound the girl to the Earth.

"LET GO OF ME!" said the girl. Emil noticed his sword and Marta's spinner on the ground, indicating Richter left them there too. Emil picks up his sword and holds it at the girl.

"Start talking." said Emil.

"Fine." said the girl. She calmed down, the scleras in her eyes turn white and then Solum released her.

"My name is Arietta. Better known as Arietta the Wild." said the girl.

"All right Arietta. Why are you here?" asked Marta.

"To avenge my family." said Arietta.

"You mean those monsters?" asked Emil.

"That's right." said Arietta. Emil and Marta were confused.

"It's a long story." said Anise.

After a thorough explanation, Marta then begins to hug Arietta.

"Why are you doing this?" asked Arietta.

"I lost my mommy too." said Marta. Arietta was shocked to hear this and hugged her back and they both started crying.

"Girls." said Emil.

"You can trust us now." said Marta.

"But what did Anise mean by "You should've stayed dead"?" asked Emil.

"Because I killed her once." said Anise.

"That's right. Then this man who calls himself Necromancer came to our world and brought me and a few others from there back to life in your world. No replicas or anything. It was hard to get adjusted to a world without fonons." said Arietta.

"And it wasn't a certain Necromancer from my world." said Anise.

"A guy who can bring back the dead." thought Emil. Solum then brought out a Clay Golem and made it approach Arietta.

"Go on." said Solum. Arietta then touched the Clay Golem and it gave her a piggy-back ride.

"The monsters may be different from the ones in your world but they are monsters all the same." said Solum.

"Say Arietta, if you don't mind, would you like to be a member of our family?" asked Emil.

"ARE YOU NUTS?!" asked Anise.

"I just don't want to kill her. Like Alice." said Emil.

"I was the one who killed Alice but you are right." said Marta.

"You'd do that for me?" asked Arietta.

"You could be like our daughter." said Emil as he reached out his hand. Arietta grabbed it and began to feel actual love.

"Emil, can I borrow your sword?" asked Arietta. Emil gave her the sword. She grabbed some of her hair from the back like she was making a ponytail and cut it to about neck length.

"With this, I say goodbye to the old me." said Arietta.

Emil, Marta Anise, Arietta and Solum were all walking home. Suddenly Anise notices a picture of Tokunaga on her pouch.

"Hey Marta." said Anise.

"What is it?" asked Marta.

"That thing on your pouch, that's Tokunaga." said Anise.

"Tokunaga? You mean the butler?" asked Marta. Anise showed Marta her doll and explained about Tokunaga.

After the explanation Anise also noticed a Mieu strap on Marta's pouch. And she explained the secrets of that too.

Marta also asked what the Order of Lorelei was like and saw that it was very different from the Church of Martel, which Marta explained to Anise.

A while later Emil, Arietta and Solum had to pick up Anise and Marta and all five of them arrive at Emil and Marta's house.

As soon as Emil, Marta, Anise, Arietta and Solum opened the door to their house, who should appear but Richer, along with Lloyd Irving and Colette Brunel.

"It's been a long time Emil." said Lloyd.

"It sure has." said Emil.

"I see you brought back the dead girl." said Richter.

"Don't talk about our daughter like that," said Marta, "and even if we have another kid we'd still treat her like family."

"What do you mean dead?" asked Emil. Then a female voice said

"She's been dead for three years in our world." Then a female with long brown hair and a man with red hair appeared.

"Luke! Tear!" said Anise.

"You know them?" asked Emil.

"They're the ones who killed mommy!" said Arietta.

"What do you mean?" asked Colette.

"Arietta's parents were killed when the Isle of Feres was swept away by a tidal wave." said Tear. "She was raised by monsters and she gained the ability to communicate with them."

"But if she was raised by monsters why does she speak your language?" asked Emil.

"My brother, commandant Van Grants, taught her how to speak like a human." said Tear. "Her ability to communicate with monsters gave her the title "Arietta the Wild"."

"She was also one of the guardians of Fon Master Ion, the leader of the Order of Lorelei, that is until I took over and she became one of the Six God-Generals." said Anise. "She didn't like the fact that her adopted mother, the Liger Queen, was killed by Luke, Tear and Jade. When she heard I killed Ion, she and I had a duel, and she lost."

"But if she's dead, how can she be standig right in front of us now?" asked Marta.

"Thank the Necromancer for that." said Richter.

"I remember it all well." said Arietta.

"Necromancer found me in limbo and brought me back from the dead. He told me everything, like the fact that the Fon Master who Anise was supposed to protect was nothing more than a Replica of him. The seventh one in fact. And he also told me the original Fon Master Ion died, but the commandant, no, Van wanted to keep that a secret. But I just snapped after hearing all this. I agreed to help Necromancer, and in exchange, he would bring back the real Ion. But now, I failed." said Arietta.

"In a way I sort of sympathize with her." said Emil. "Which must be why you guys adopted her." said Luke. "By the way, Richter, if your here, who's watching the Ginnungagap? It was supposed to be sealed away." said Emil.

"Necromancer did that too." said Richter. "He must've snuck in as the door was closing." "They say Necromancer has the power to revive the dead." said Lloyd. "As a demonsteration, he brought back everyone in Palmacosta that was killed over the past 7 years."

Flashback:

"Ladies and gentlemen of Palmacosta. Your Goddess Martel has abandoned you. She is no longer of this world. Where was she during the World Regeneration or the Blood Purge? Nowhere. She's just a worthless Half-Elf. But I am someone who wishes to reunite you with family, friends and loved ones. Behold!" said Necromancer.

Using his powers he was able to bring back from the dead everyone that was killed over the past 7 years, including the male Govenor General Dorr, and Reysol and Lana Castagnier.

"Can Martel do this? I don't think so. So rejoice, your loved ones have returned." said Necromancer.

Flashforward:

"I say Necromancer is up to something." said Lloyd. "Martel would be sad if she heard what Necromancer said." said Colette. "What should we do?" asked Emil. "What else?" said Lloyd "We fight." "I'll fight too." said Arietta. "I know that Necromancer will hurt more people just to bring them back from the abyss of death." "I'm in." said Colette. "Me too." said Tear. Luke and Lloyd agreed too. "I have research I have to do." said Richter. "Solum, teach them the ropes." "Fine." said Solum. Richter left.

A new adventure had begun.

Just as the group was about to leave the house, a trap activates, sapping everyone's strength. "What was that?" asked Emil. "It's a Mana seal. It was designed to seal away the artes of anyone foolish enough to enter it." said a mysterious, yet feminine voice. Then a slender woman cane down from a tree. "Whoa, what a babe." said Luke, then Tear and Marta stomped Luke's feet. "My name is Preza." said the woman "And I will not allow you to interfiere with Master Necromancer's plans." The Mana Seal then turns off leaving the group with one or two basic artes to use. See you around." said Preza as she blew a kiss to Emil.

Marta gets mad at Emil. "How could you have an affair with another woman?" asked Marta. "I don't even know her." said Emil. "Excuse me." said Arietta "What about training?" "I guess now is a good a time to start." said Lloyd. "So what's a good place to train?" asked Tear. "I know of a place." said Lloyd.

"Before we go, Arietta needs a weapon." said Colette. Arietta looks scared. "I believe that Arietta can makes use of this." said Marta "It was my old spinner." "What's a spinner?" asked Arietta. "Try it for yourself." said Marta as she put it on Arietta's hand. Arietta then spins the blade and it rotates. She then waved her arm and the blade began to spin. "I'll teach you along the way." said Marta. "All right, showtime's over. We have work to do." said Lloyd. "Follow me." And so the group follows Lloyd.

The next day Lloyd took the group to a special training camp he made, just outside of Iselia. "Pretty Cool Huh?" asked Lloyd. "Not bad." said Luke. "So what're we doing here?" asked Emil. "This special training camp was where I was secretly training Paul for 2 years." said Lloyd. "Does Lilia know about this?" asked Marta. "No, and please don't tell her." said Lloyd.

Lloyd set up the practise dummies. He went first, then Emil, then Marta, then Colette, then Luke, then Tear. "It's a good thing I still know Dragon Surge." said Anise. "Why's that?" asked Emil. "Because with an Earth Elemental Field of Fonons, it can become Stone Dragon Ascent." said Anise. "What are fonons?" asked Colette. "Jade is better at this stuff than I am but why not ask Tear?" said Luke. "Well..." said Tear.

After an explaination of what Fonons were Colette had a pretty good understanding. "That's very interesting." said Colette "So why don't you guys have Ice fonons or Lightning fonons?" "There were only six elemental fonons." said Tear. "That's too bad." said Colette. "Besides, we'd have to add 2 more days and four more months to our calendar to include those two guys." said Luke. "Volt and Celsius." said Lloyd "And that would be a bit much." "We don't have Fonons." said Solum "But we have the next best thing." Solum then used his power to create an Earth based Mana Field in the ground. "This Mana Field should power you up with Earth Mana, giving you the equivalent of an Earth Based Field of Fonons. Try it." Anise tried it out. First she tried Dragon Surge without the Mana field, but when she got on it, she absorbed the Earth Mana and Dragon Surge became Stone Dragon Ascent.

"That's cool!" said Lloyd. "Told ya." said Anise. "I wonder if that'll happen to Regal's Dragon Surge?" asked Emil. "Here Tear." said Solum as he charged her with Earth Mana. "I have given you a portion of my power so you can create Earth Mana Fields. Use it well." "Thank you." said Tear.

Finally, it was Arietta's turn, but suddenly a Clay Golem appeared out of nowhere. "What is it?" asked Arietta. "A monster." said Emil. "We'll have to kill it." said Lloys. But Arietta blocked Lloyd. "I won't let you hurt it." said Arietta. Solum had an idea: He gave Arietta the power to form pacts with monsters and a new outfit. "It's up to you now." said Solum. Arietta had no choice but to fight the monster. She defeated it and as it was about to die, Arietta's hands glew as she was embracing it. The monster came back to life, under her control. "You have now forged a pact with the monster." said Solum. "You can do that?" asked Luke. "Of course. Arietta is now the pactmaker. When a monster is defeated and the elements are aligned properly the pactmaker can forge pacts with monsters, which in turn allows us Centurions to regain power." said Solum. "I am the Centurion of Earth, so naturally I get my power from Earth-elemental monsters, like the Clay Golem. Of course it is possible to make pacts with monsters who are not of the same element as I am. Of course you can choose not to forge a pact. The choice is yours."

Just then, a Chirpee appeared and attacked the group. A team composed of Emil, Lloyd, Anise and Arietta was formed and all four beat the Chirpee. Arietta then forged a pact with it. "Nice job Arietta." said Anise. Arietta just snubbed Anise and walked away. Anise, Emil and Luke went to find her.

Arietta was sitting on a rock. Anise found her and sat next to her. "What's your problem?" asked Anise. Arietta didn't respond. "If it's about Ion then you don't have to worry. He's doing fine." said Anise. "By the way, apparently the Order of Lorelei has changed. Now I'm the new Fon Master." That made Arietta mad. "And if you're nice to me, maybe Ill let you be one of my guardians again. Of course you're gonna--" Then Arietta grabbed Anise's cheeks and pulled them hard. "YOU ARE THE MOST ANNOYING PERSON I HAVE EVER MET! HOW DARE YOU EVEN CALL YOURSELF FON MASTER!! YOU REALLY TICK ME OFF!" yelled Arietta. She looked at Anise face and couldn't help but laugh, then Anise laughed too.

Anise and Arietta had a more civilized talk, of course what Anise told Arietta she already heard from Necromancer. Emil and Lloyd were eavesdropping and headed back.

Back at base camp, Arietta and Anise have decided to work together, and Arietta looked at Emil and said. "It isn't nice to spy on people." Emil was shocked and said "You knew?" "Chirpee told me." said Arietta. "Sorry." said Emil. "It's ok. I forgive you this time." said Arietta. "Shouldn't this thing be the other way around?" asked Marta. "So anyway, let's go to Iselia. You'll like it there." said Lloyd. And off they went, recruiting monsters along the way.

The new group of heroes finally arrive at iselia. There they see Lloyd's teacher, Raine Sage, with a beautiful girl. "Hello, professor. Long time no see." said Lloyd. "Lloyd, it's good to see you again." "It's nice to see you too Lloyd." said Raine. "Aren't you gonna introduce us to your friend?" asked Emil. "Of course." said Raine, who nudges her. "I am Milla Maxwell." said the grl. "Maxwell, as in the Summon Spirit of Origin?" asked Lloyd. "Of course." said Milla. "So why are you here?" asked Colette. "That is a good question." Said Milla.

After a brief explanation and an introduction Emil said "I see." "Yup, I had a run in with Presa a while back. She was supposed to be dead, but this Necromancer guy brought her back." said Milla. "So what's going on?" asked Marta. "Apparently a young woman from Palmacosta was abducted. Whoever did it also abducted Lilia and Paul. They left a message for Lloyd." said Raine as she gave him the note. Lloyd immediately knew who sent them the note, and where they were holding them. "Come on." said Lloyd. "I'll go with you." said Raine. And off they went.

Others will include Alice, Magnius, Kvar, Forcystus, etc. Even characters from other Tales games like Droite, Gauche, and Judith. Those are just a few.

What do you think? Still working out what artes, titles to use and skits.

Oh. I'll give it a shot.

Random Spoilers:

The gang arrives at Iselia Human Ranch and meet Jade. Once inside they meet Genis and Guy.

They find that Forcystus is alive and Necromancer brings back Marble in her monster form for Lilia, Paul and Chocolat to kill her again.

Chocolate reveals she has been learning theivery skills and joins the group.

There are 7 Necromancer subordinates: They include:

Forcystus of the Wind, Magnius of Fire, Alice of Ice, Legretta of the Light, Kvar of the Water, Presa of the Lightning and Eb of the Dark.

Eb turns out to be the real Emil Castagnier under the mask and looks like Guy He blames the present Emil for stealing his identity.

Presa is joined by Mary Cecil and Seles Wilder and they fight at the Temple of Lightning.

Legretta is accompanied by her older brother Marcel and the heroes battle her at the spot Lumen's Alter was.

Kvar makes the ultimate torture by battling Lloyd and friends with his mother Anna.

Kratos returns.

Magnius battles in the temple of fire and joining him is Estelle, Judith, Rita, Droite, Gauche, Nan, Agria and Alicia Combatir.

Yuri, Karol and Raven arrive.

Emil battles Eb at Tenebrae's Altar at the Temple of Darkness.

Marta battles Alice and her own mother at Glacies' Altar at the Temple of Ice.

Forcystus battles the heroes at Ventus' Altar at the Underground Ruins.

That's all I can tell you.

Funny parts:

Zelos was about to grope Sheena and at a few inches away from her chest Sheena's eyes open, she looks at Zelos like she's ticked off at him and summons Volt to give him a shock he'll never forget.

Judith embraces Guy and he passes out.

Presa, Judith and Sheena have a hot spring scene and Presa brings out the real peeping tom: Zelos, in which Seles is ashamed.

Nice huh? Can't be tales without funny parts. Edit, did some fixing.

Thanks. Now here's part 9. I tuned it to your writing style:

Soon after, the group of heroes arrive at the Iselia Human Ranch. There they spot a figure at the entrance. Thinking it was Presa, Lloyd went in for the attack but the figure drew a spear from the air itself and held it at Lloyd. Luke, Tear and Anise immediately recognized who it was.

"Jade!" said Luke.

Jade looked at Luke, Tear and Anise.

"Well, it certainly has been a while hasn't it." said Jade.

"Do you know him Anise?" asked Marta.

"Allow me to present the incredibly awesome Jade Curtiss. Third Division Malkuth Imperial Forces." said Anise.

"Oh stop Anise. You're making me blush." said Jade.

"He's about as charming as Tenebrae." said Marta.

"So why are you here sir?" asked Emil.

"There is apparently some activity happening here in this building. I decided to investigate." said Jade.

Suddenly, they hear a scream from inside.

"Let's go." said Emil. And off they went.

Once they got inside Luke asked what this place was.

"This was a place where humans were abducted to be used as guinea pigs for Exspheres." said Lloyd.

"They say that they used human suffering to produce top quality Exspheres." said Marta. "That's horrible." said Anise.

"Not to the Desians. They were the ones in charge, and they didn't care who they hurt as long as they got results." said Lloyd.

"I will not allow this kind of place to exist." said Luke.

"That's the spirit." said Marta.

Further in they find two more people.

"Lloyd!" said one of the people.

"Genis? What are you doing here?" said Raine.

"I found this guy here and he said to find someone named Luke." said Genis.

Then the other person, Guy Cecil, fell from the ceiling.

"Hi guys." said Guy.

"It's a pleasure to meet you." said Emil as he lifted Guy up.

But when Guy saw Raine he just shivered.

"I bet guy doesn't like Half-elves too." said Genis.

"It's not that you're Half-elves." said Jade.

"Guy is afraid of women." said Luke.

"And there is a tragic story behind that." said Tear.

After Guy calmed down he explained how his Gynophobia came to be.

"That's awful." said Collette.

"I know. The death of my sister still haunts me to this day." said Guy.

"In time we will have to work on it. For now, let's focus on the task at hand." said Raine.

And off the went further inside.

Nice huh?

Thanks. You know I have put this here:

http://tales.namco.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=92210

But no one ever bothered to comment on it.

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 19:28, July 10, 2012 (UTC)

But I want people to comment on it. It's really good and funny, remember? How do I do that?

BTW, Part 10. I improved a bit. Not as many "saids" this time around.

The group soon entered the control room, where they found Lilia, Paul and Chocolat suspended in midair.

Soon they heard a voice. "How long has it been Lloyd Irving? A month, a year, a millenium? Too long if you ask me."

Genis immediately recognized the voice. "I could still hear that voice in my nightmares."

Lloyd remembered the voice all too well to. "Forcystus!"

The chair in the control room turned around and sitting on it was none other than Forcystus. "I how long have I waited for the chance to pay you back for killing me."

Lloyd was not too pleased to see Forcystus alive again. "How long has it been? Seven years?"

"And six months because of you. There's nothing to do in lombo but count off how much time passed since your death." Said Forcystus.

Soon the three captives woke up. Chocolat shouted "This is a trap!"

Lloyd then drew his swords and everyone else drew their weapons, ready to fight Forcystus.

Forcystus himself was cocky. "I admire your fighting spirit, even with your artes sealed by Presa. But it will not be me you'll be fighting..."

Then a monster came from behind a wall. It was the very same monster Lloyd and Genis fought back in Iselia after Collette left, which meant it was Genis old friend Marble.

Forcystus couldn't help but laugh. "I had Necromancer bring her back just to torture you again. And if you kill her in front of these people it'll prove just how much of a monster you are."

Lloyd was angry "You dastard!"

Forcystus was just smug. "Call me what you want, the fact is, it's payback time."

Forcystus then pushed a button on his chair and he became surrounded by a metal tube.

"We shall meet again, if you survive." said Forcystus as he escaped.

Genis tried to talk to the monster. "Marble, stop! We don't want to hurt you again!"

Emil was shocked to hear this. "What do you mean?"

"We'll explain later." said Genis.

Soon Chocolat screamed "Please Lloyd! My grandmother has suffered enough. Please put her soul to rest."

With steely determination and tears in his eyes, Lloyd and his allies had to fight Marble again.

To Be continued...

The boss here is Monster Marble. Now, is it a rule in fanfics to explain what happens in boss battles or is that too tedious?

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 13:35, July 11, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks.

No I have not posted it there, but I might. In the meantime I posted it in Deviant Art and Namcotales forum.

What I meant was, don't you think it's a bit ridiculous to explain every detail of a boss battle in a fanfiction?

And it's a bit hard writing like that.

Anyway I'm glad you like it. I think it's comng along quite nicely.

Next part is the aftermath, or the boss battle in detail.

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 14:55, July 11, 2012 (UTC)

I always thought writing about a Boss Battle would be boring. It's how I got through my Kingdom Hearts fanfic so easily. But if it's what the audience wants I'll do it. Besides, the battle with Monster Marble is like the one in the original Symphonia only it's 12 against one or should it be 4 against one?

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 21:37, July 11, 2012 (UTC)

That is also a problem. Who should I pick to battle Monster Marble? Maybe Emil, Marta, Arietta and Genis.

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 00:34, July 12, 2012 (UTC)

I think I have it figured out. Here:

Emil, Marta, Arietta and Genis had no choice but to put Monster Marble down.

However, Necromancer modified Monster Marble's Body to use every element in the spectrum and a few physical boosts.

Genis was scared "Don't hurt her."

Marta replied "Hurt her? What about us?"

Emil tried using his sword but it was no dice. Marta, Genis and Arietta tried Magic. It didn't work either. Genis then used his Exsphere and it weakened Marble. Genis used some Ice Magic to freeze Marble in place. Marta and Arietta then use their magic to do damage and Emil managed to slash her body a few times until she fell.

"Nice Job" said Marta.

"Thank you." said Arietta.

Boss Battles are hard to type up.

Next, the Aftermath.

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 19:53, July 13, 2012 (UTC)

Droite and Gauche.
I was thinking. For my Fanfic, since Droite and Gauche will be good guys I figure they should have their own individual Mystic Artes in case they get separated.

Droite's would be called "Comedy's Laugh" where Droite would tickle her target and use an extendible boxing glove to cause heavy damage to her opponent and after she'll say "Oppsie. Sorry about that."

Gauche's will be called "Tragedy's Tears" where she will focus on all her most painful memories and use that as strength to lash out at her target, all while shedding tears of pain in her eyes and she'll say "May these tears find you peace."

Nice huh?

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 21:24, July 14, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks. I feel that, even though it's been done, every character should have their own Mystic Arte, and some of them should match their personality. Like Alice's Mystic Arte, I think, matches her cold-hearted personality.

Sorry about not explaining how they can be activated. Certain requiremets must be met. This'll get complicated so here it goes:

1. Droite/Gauche must be in the party without the other.

Example: Lloyd, Emil, Marta, Droite. Example 2: Sheena, Tear, Judith, Gauche.

2. Each must have a respective accessory equipped to them. For Droite it's the Laughing Pendant. For Gauche it's the Tearful Amulet.

Laughing Pendant: Equippable to Droite only. A Pendant shaped like the mask of Comedy.

Tearful Amulet: Equippable to Gauche Only. An Amulet that appears to be crying tears.

And this may be innapropriate but a future skit:

Are those real?:

Marta: Judith. Judith: Yes, what is it? Marta: I have a question to ask. Judith: What is it. Marta: Are those real? Judith: You mean my antenna? Why yes. All Krytia are born with them. Marta: I mean your breasts. Judith: Oh yes. They're real too. Marta: HMPH! Judith: What's with her? Zelos: She's got a long way to go, or in her case, grow. Marta stomps of Zelos' foot. Marta: What was that?! Zelos: Nothing. Marta: Good. Judith: These people sure are interesting.

Sorry I didn't post this on fanfiction.net. I'll work on getting an account there, but here's the aftermath of the battle:

After the battle, Monster Marble's body began to fade away. Lloyd, Luke and Tear managed to get Chocolat, Lilia and Paul. Chocolat went to Monster Marble's body and the soul within Genis' exsphere soon began to glow. Then the spirit of Marble appeared.

Marble greeted everyone with a kind smile. "Thank you all for what you've done for me."

Then she turned to Chocolat "My, how you have grown. I'm glad you trust Lloyd now."

"I owe him my life, and I support him, after I heard that it was the Desians who killed you, not Lloyd." said Chocolat.

"Marble then smiled and said goodbye, returning to Genis' exsphere. Tears soon swelled up in Genis' eyes and Monster Marble's body disappeared. Then Lloyd noticed something "He got away."

Emil then said "I guess we can't stay here much longer." Everyone agreed.

Everyone soon left the Human Ranch.

Genis was feeling better. "I guess it was great seeing Marble one last time."

And then Lloyd said "Come to think of it, this was how our first adventure started."

Emil then asked "What do you mean?"

Lloyd then explained about how he met Marble and how he and Genis were responsible for the near massacre in Iselia.

"That's horrible." said Marta.

Anise agreed. "To think that they used her to kill everyone in Iselia. How cruel."

"Killing her was the only way they could set her free." said Chocolat "But I never understood that until the people at this ranch told me that Lloyd wanted to help her."

Arietta then asked "This ranch?"

Lloyd then answered "There were human ranches here, at Asgard and..."

"In Palmacosta." continued Marta.

"That was so cruel." said Luke.

Guy added "At least our world didn't have those."

Then Jade butted in "As fascinating as this conversation is we should return to Iselia and we have to get Chocolat back to Palmacosta."

Everyone agreed and left the ranch and headed back to Iselia.

Vesperia Questions
I'm at the near end of my first playthrough of Tales of Vesperia and a few questions have popped into my brain:

1. If you beat the game, can you start over from part 1 or not?

2. I think I missed a part in the wonder log. Part 129 I believe it was. How would I get this?

3. Did you know that, if you haven't defeated all nine Giganto monsters, they can respawn? It could be perfect for getting hard to find items.

4. Ever thought of doing a Vesperia Monster Book? They list ALL the stats and stuff. You could do the basic layout. I'll take care of the rest.

Please provide me with some feedback on this.

I have to tell you, Secret Mission 17 was hard. Had to do that a few times before I got that.

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 09:45, July 21, 2012 (UTC)

Oh, sorry. Didn't mean to brag.

Secret Mission 17 WAS hard. You have to time Yuri's Destruction Field spam and stop it when Yeager's guard breaks so Raven can use Rain on him. Most of these are tough. I'm currently at a moment before I got to Capua Nor for the Tarqaron tower thing. I'm gonna do some backtracking for the Gald needed for the second hot spring visit. I've almost finished every side quest.

This is my opinion here but there should've been an anime cutscene where Khroma turned into her Dragon form.

But that's just me.

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 17:47, July 21, 2012 (UTC)

I got 5 of the fell arms and almost every monster and item. I may have to go through the game again for Karolian Hammer +1. A shame there's only one Karolian Hammer and you can't synthesize one. Also completed almost every side quest. I almost reached the 100 hour mark and I have three secret missions left to go: Flynn, Zagi V and Duke. I'm not sure how I can get Flynn to perform ALL his artes. The Blastia Bane could be easy but Duke is another story. The highest combo I ever got was 60. Not sure how to get 200. Not sure about the other quests either. They don't tell how much HP you healed over the course of the game. I'm only +50,000 Gald away from the Hot Springs scene. Man that's a lot.

Shocking Spoiler
This is a bit of what might happen in the future of my fanfic:

After saving the girls from Magnius and hatching Ignis' core, Gauche was upset the enemy helped her. Droite tried to comfort her but the two get into a heated argument which leads to Gauche stabbing Droite (Mind you, she does not hit a vital organ) and severing their sisterly bond. Droite had her eyes open and she is crying.

The group takes her to Triet to treat her wounds and Droite explains everything. After which she decides to join the group in order to patch things up with her sister.

At this point Droite has every arte except her Mystic Arte.

During a battle in the Temple of Darkness (the aftermath), Gauche tries to kill the group but misses her mark and falls to Shadow's Altar, with Eb (The Real Emil Castagnier) diving to save her. She is badly hurt and uses healing artes on herself but collapses. Emil then gives her some food and tells her to patch things up with her sister, gives her some advice and gives her two pendants. One for her, the other for her sister. He then escorts her out of the temple and takes her as far as the gates of Meltokio. Gauch finds the group and she smiles when she finds Droite. Tears swell up in her eyes and the two have a tearfully happy reunion.

Gauche then apologizes and joins the group.

At This point, should Droite or Gauche be in the party without the other, Droite can use the Mystic Arte Comedy's Laugh and Gauche can use the Mystic Arte Tragedy's Tears.

In addition, Droite and Gauche get rid of their hairbands, saying goodbye to their past selves.

And before I forget, therell be a moment befor this that Zelos feels them and Gauche stomps on his left foot and Droite stomps his right foot and they both laugh.

And they get new clothes.

That's all I have to say about that.

Pretty deep huh?

Jealousy
I know you're gonna be jealous of me but I beat Vesperia, though not without completing the dog map or the Hero title. But I got the 100 hit combo achievement, and all the secret missions done. But I still need to work on the bunny guild, the fatal titles for the others and that ridiculous 200-hit combo for Yuri's joke weapon. I say ridiculous because there is no way that anyone can kepp a combo going all the way to 200. My best was 130.

But Duke's third form was hard. He had a Mystic Arte that combined the Mystic Artes of ALL the Vesperia protagonists. Luckily my guys were at LV 78 or 79. but still.

Anyway, before I beat the game just to get the skills transfered I gotta get more achievements.

If it makes you feel better, I havent finished Radiant Mythology 1 yet.

Signed, Winxfan1. I am the ultimate fan of Winx Club 20:19, August 1, 2012 (UTC)

Winxfan1 congratulations for beating the game, so I gonna give you some tips:

1) To reach 200 hit combo I recommend to use Rita in over limit, cast tidal wave, equip a weapon with low attack and she can easily reach 350 hit combo. In case to run out TP you can get the Risky Ring at Nam Combanda Island.

2) Since you gonna start a new file I recomend you do the Labyrinth of memories sidequest and the Judith's sidequest to get her best non fell arm weapon: Brionaic, since this sidequest is really easy to miss. (Juan Ma)

Thanks for the tip about the combo. I'll give it a shot, and I already got the Brionac. And I'm almost done the Labyrinth of memories too. Minimal Damage should do the trick.
