    Final Fantasy 25th Anniversary Ciddies
    Final Fantasy Awards... with style!

    As part of the Final Fantasy 25th Anniversary celebrations, Eyes on Final Fantasy decided to get some of the best members and artists to work together to create an awards event unlike anything you've seen before! This wasn't just a standard awards event where you vote and then someday someone tells you who won, and that's that... no, this event was created as an elaborate show within the Final Fantasy 'multiverse', and it's our delight to present the results to you. Please, follow the below links to find out who won what award, who sang what newly-created song while playing their guitar, who saves the day and more!

    This event was created with the intention of saying a massive thankyou to Square-Enix and Final Fantasy. From the fans - all of us!

    If you want the full version, including posts by members and Award Creatures, follow this link.
    If you want the condensed version without any member comments/posts, follow this link.

      Dr. Shantotto: Who is the evilest charactaru in Final Fantasy? Take a look and we shall see! Oh-ho-ho~!

      Dr. Shantotto glances over a list of nominees, checking the other side of the paper.

      Dr. Shantotto: Wait, what? I am not presentaru? What the smurfy-wurfy is this troutaru?

      Ajido-Marujido: Cait Sith...

      Dr. Shantotto: In feline form, evil inherent? What could be more self-apparent?

      Ajido-Marujido: Emperor Mateus...

      Dr. Shantotto: A chessmaster, brilliant, without peer, the Emperor is one to fear

      Ajido-Marujido: Exdeath...

      Dr. Shantotto: A frightful foe he would be, were he not a smurfing tree

      Ajido-Marujido: Kefka Palazzo...

      Dr. Shantotto: Son of a submariner! An evil clown? Who better to burn the whole world down?

      Ajido-Marujido: Kuja...

      Dr. Shantotto: An avatar of all that's wrong, if not the man, there's still his thong.

      Ajido-Marujido: Sephiroth...

      Dr. Shantotto: As a foe he's rather aggravating, but that sword is overcompensating.

      Ajido-Marujido: Seymour Guado...

      Dr. Shantotto: A nihilist! I am beshrewn. Say what you will of tyrant's tenets, sir; it seeks to stand philosophy and politic, not void. And let it be noted that wildlife kept, amphibious rodent, in domestic walls, is retrograde to right and civil laws.

      Ajido-Marujido: ...and Vayne Carudas Solidor.

      Dr. Shantotto: What calamity will Solidor bring in his bid to be the Dynast King?

      Excitement! fun! Water inside trousers! Check your anticipatory escalation, the time is nigh for the winner's revalation...

      Kimahri Ronso: Kimahri Ronso present award in association with Hero Drink, the great beverage made from the ice of Fayth scar. Kimahri happy that he has nice characters to meet with. A true Ronso does not seek war or power, but kind words. The people nominated today shine bright, as people must be.

      Audience yawns loudly.

      Kimahri: The first character is my old friend, Yuna. It is guardian’s job to protect the summoner, but Yuna manages to protect Kimahri as well whi-

      Yenke Ronso: Bwhahaha. That is because elder Kimahri is useless in battle. Useless! Useless! What the matter Kimahri? No player ever use you? Is that because you have no Ronso talent? Kimahri start in centre of grid. Kimahri therefore bad at fighting. Hahaha!

      Security arrives in the form of the angels from the final battle of VIII and escorts Garik away

      Kimahri shakes head slowly

      Kimahri: Kimahri sorry. Kimahri continue. I remember fighting on Highbridge. The battle was long and hard. Ronso prowess no match for Seymour. But then, Yuna came back. This is why Yuna is nominated, for coming back to me. I hear Selphie Tilmitt is reckless, like Lian and Ayde when they search for Elder horn. However, within that is a kind, loving character. As is Rikku. When I first look at Rikku, I shook head slowly. But now, Rikku is a friend. Rikku mix items to help Kimahri relax. She uses ancient Al Bhed plant known as Syneziyhy and smoking it is pleasant. Kimahri grateful.

      Rikku looks nervous and hastily shrinks down in her chair.

      Kimahri: Aeris Gainsborough is also a nice character. She tends to plants, and Ronso share deep connection to plant life, even in harsh Gagazet peaks, the Galbana lily thrives. It is the symbol of hope. Aeris is a friend of the Ronso. Tifa too. Many time Tifa give up her free time to help Kimahri train, and the Ronso are thankful for her combat lessons.

      Vivi is nice as well. Despite wielding fierce magic, I remember Vivi as a shy child. Look how he has grown. Remember back last year. Annual talent show and Vivi could not perform Firaga due to nerves. Look at him now. Kind and brave. Like Ronso. I had doubts on our next character. Vanille at first is loud, brash and has voice like strangled kitten. But somewhere inside of her, I see a fire that would melt Gagazet. Vanille is kind but not afraid to be stubborn, and is a good choice of victor. Finally, Rosa Farrell is a white mage. This makes her kind. White mages have compassion for others and tend to sick. This is why female Ronso are highly privileged. My female assistant I have with me on Gagazet is of their ilk. Her kindness to Rydia in Mt Hobs is commendable. She is worthy of winning this award as well.

      Audience falls asleep.

      Kimahri: Kimahri not forced to speak in long time. Kimahri tired. The winner of Nicest Character is here...
