Description
ATTENTION: Arkae's design is very out of date. For references, please look at Team Ruin's Mission 4 comic.Team Ruin's application for .

Rikku: A greedy Sandile. Born into a poor family, Rikku never knew what it was like to have money. His parents' lives were taken by illness, and he was left to fend for himself. He was barely surviving until he met Arkae, who gave him a free place to stay. He started working and earned an income, and he finally learned the joy of money. He was generous with it at first, and used it to help those with the same misfortunes as himself. But after earning more and more, Rikku became more and more greedy and stingy. Soon enough, Rikku had been lowered as low as theft. When he learned of a guild for those who enjoy making people pay (and not in terms of justice), Rikku saw a perfect opportunity to get his skills appreciated. With a greed that rivals that of Shroomsworth, Rikku is perfect for a Merchant!
Arkae: A kind and gentle Archen. Arkae met Rikku when he was begging for money on the street. Being the kind soul he is, Arkae decided to help Rikku out and give him a place to stay. Arkae and Rikku developed a close bond in the time they live together, to the point that Arkae considers Rikku his brother. Arkae loves money too, but unlike Rikku, he isn't overly obsessed and would never resort to stealing. He prefers to refer to himself as 'frugal.' Arkae acts as Rikku's voice of reason, often stopping him from rushing into things too quickly, which he often does. Despite his kindheartedness and helpfulness, Arkae does love money and is still a good choice for the Merchant's guild.
Relic: A young Sigilyph. He was awakened from his hibernation when Team Ruin adopted his "egg", which was really just his dormant form. He is actually two beings, one more naive and childlike and the other aggressive and mean. The top half speaks using a multitude of different electronic-sounding noises. The bottom half speaks the ancient language that Kyurem speaks, being from the same time period. While he may just be a kid, Relic is a powerhouse and is a great addition to Team Ruin! (NOTE: anything written in a pixellated font under Relic's picture applies to the head while anything else applies to the body, excluding the line "Relic the Sigilyph.")
EDIT: I fixed Rikku's face. It didn't look right.
EDIT 2: Added the egg. Looks kinda odd, doesn't it? Well, there just might be a reason for that. Find out soon 'cause that's what I'm doing next.
EDIT 3: Added Relic. Worked soooo hard on that picture, and I FREAKING LOVE HOW IT CAME OUT. It captures his personality (or personalities) perfectly! 8D
EDIT 4: Updated Rikku's picture to match his current design. Arkae's is outdated too, but he'll have to wait until later.

Thanks! It took all day to do. x_x
But now I can't get over the fact that Arkae's picture is so low-quality and not really as good as Rikku and Relic. XD

I don't particularly like Sigilyph, because they totally creep me out (I seriously wouldn't even catch one in the game), but Relic is just adorable! I applaud you for making him so darn lovable!

TeamNormalizer In reply to TheMagicCat [2011-10-17 01:14:26 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, I don't like Sigilyph the way Pokemon draws it, but it did have some cool things about it. All I did was fix the parts that look creepy (besides the middle part, I made that the cool kind of creepy. XD).

Thanks! I love Relic too. Problem is, he's a pain to draw. That picture literally took all day. X_X

That could be problematic especially with all those markings.

TeamNormalizer In reply to Jiyuria [2011-10-17 01:01:41 +0000 UTC]
Yeah. Luckily, I barely ever draw anything this detailed in comics. It'll probably be mostly shots of his head or body. Just so long as I can avoid drawing his wings too much, he'll be fine.
I could write stories with him involved a lot, but he's not much easier to write for, conidering he has two personalities and characters in him and neither of them speak english. X_X

Jiyuria In reply to TeamNormalizer [2011-10-17 01:08:19 +0000 UTC]
He doesn't speak Pokemon/English either?
That's double the difficulty.

TeamNormalizer In reply to Jiyuria [2011-10-17 01:12:25 +0000 UTC]
It's made even more difficult by the fact that his two parts speak different languages.

Jiyuria In reply to TeamNormalizer [2011-10-17 01:13:50 +0000 UTC]
That's really difficult.
Are they defined languages?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
TeamNormalizer In reply to Jiyuria [2011-10-17 01:18:10 +0000 UTC]
They're both nothing anyone can understand.
The head speaks in various electronic-sounding noises (think R2-D2) and the body speaks Sorbet's language (which doesn't help anyone understand it because nobody can understand him). If you want a little more insight into why he does that,read this: [link] Sorbet explains it better than I can. XD

Yeah, it's kinda really long... But if you just want to know about Relic, you can skip to the end.
