Question for you guys! What do you think of when you think of Final Fantasy? ...okay, yes, Chocobos. WHAT ELSE? ...Moogles, okay. WHAT ELSE? ...Nobuo? Okay, okay, he's a pretty cool guy. I'll give you him. But come on you guys, what is just ICONIC FINAL FANTASY??

...guys with spiky hair and big swords, I hear you say. Okay, fine. I'll give you that one, too.

Here, I'm tired of playing this game, though. Let's get to the answer you're all SUPPOSED to be saying, and that is THE BLACK MAGE. This is it. This is the class that defines Final Fantasy. And to no one's great surprise! What is more distinctive than the blue robe, the pointy yellow hat, and the bright yellow eyes?

Don't answer that question. No, I see you trying to answer it. Don't. DON'T. STOP. YOU'RE DONE ANSWERING MY QUESTIONS TODAY.

Bolivar and Wolf Kanno. Oh sweet mother of Zeus! This would be a coupling made in gaming heaven, or hell depending on your standpoint. Bolivar's strong sony feelings would probably love-hate Wolf Kanno's cross format obsession. It's actually the only couple I could put together who I believe could out nerd Hux and Pike!

Steve pls

[Madame Adequate]

Ahahahaha Steve for funniest speechwriter

[Pike]

Oh yay, it's my terrible backup speech! xD

Men and gentleladies! What is the dizzle fo rizzle. I have here seven people that have been nominated for something as classy as Most Likely, Or Probable But Most Likely Likely, To Be: Fighter! This is a central role to any party, but let me not waste your time with idle banter. Behold instead these short stories of our nominees' adventures as Fighters.

Aerith's Knight




Cuchulainn




DK




fire_of_avalon




Jowy




NorthernChaosGod




Sharky



And that's all there's to it. Now get your fists ready to find out the winner...

Be Fighter

Do you like swords? Of course you do, everyone likes swords. Well, maybe not Aerith, but I don't hear her speaking up against them.

The candidates:

Aerith's Knight
I know AK more from tGA than from here and can attest that he does indeed like swords, but he's also pretty enamoured of magic; he's more of a paladin/cleric type character.

Cuchulainn
Yes, all Irish people love to fight, you pack of bloody racists.

DK
I suppose I could possibly see this happening, but only because FF1 lacks a rapist class.

fire_of_avalon
If I say what I really think here, foa will put a sword through my favourite kidney.

Jowy
I have an advantage over many EoFF'ers here in that I played WoW with Jowy for several years, so I know for a fact that he's quite adept at tanking, so this is a safe vote; even if you piss off one of the other candidates, Jowy can keep threat off of you until you finish them off.

NorthernChaosGod
Well, NCG has displayed a fairly high degree of resilience against barbed words and pointed mockery, but I'm not so sure he'd do as well against barbed spears and pointed crossbow bolts.

sharkythesharkdogg
I really don't get this nomination. Sharky is clearly a Ninja.

[Aerith's Knight]

Saw it coming.

[Raistlin]

Pffffft. Raistlin Majere is the best black mage ever, but of course you plebeian voters just went with the person with "black mage" in the name.

[Aerith's Knight]

The speeches are of unusually high quality so far.

[Sephex]

Loved the comic.
