    Default Maester Seymour and the Belly of Doom

    What the hell is up with Maester Seymour's Belly?

    Maybe I'm just used to my Final Fantasy characters being the picture of perfection but every time I see him it properly creeps me out. I'm determined to finish FFX this time but I really don't look forward to his appearances.

    Is anyone else affected as badly as me?

    He's not human so human body proportions aren't necessary.

    I can't say I noticed his stomach. His hair kind of distracts from the rest of his body.

    But he is half human!

    That's not his belly, that's just the pattern on his robe, you goon.

    He's definitely got some weird muscle definition going on but I give it a pass considering that he also has claw like hands, glowing blue veins on his face and hair that literally defies all laws and logic.

    Have always thought this! Creepiest thing about him IMO. Looks like he's had a life of heavy drinking!

    I never thought it was actually fat or anything, just weird racial stuff.

    Perfect Pic, Devore! I couldn't find one that properly showed what I meant.

    You see it's just all wrong. The bottom of his robes puff out indicating a bit of a pot belly. He has tattoos on his chest area, chest hair in the middle, then a nicely shaved pot belly at the bottom. I mean, what kind of a look is he going for here?!

    As soon as I saw the smurfer I knew I didn't like the look of him.

    In that picture though, there's no indication of a pot belly. His stomach is perfectly flat there, as far as shading shows. xD His robes just puff out because... design choice.

    OK, maybe not the best example of it when he's stood still. When he's walking around though you see it moving and it properly freaks me out!

    I agree. I guess people don't look hard enough to notice he actually has a six pack.

    I voted the last option, just for fun. XD
    His belly is good, actually, so this thread makes no sense to me. XD

    I don't care. To me he's just a punching bag in the game that you have to fight.
