Script

Thief	So she can heal and wield a giant hammer. Quite versatile.
Red Mage	(from above) but not as versatile as me!
Red Mage performs somersaults in the air before landing on the ground.
Red Mage	Excelsior!
Black Mage	Who the hell are you?
Red Mage	I am... THE RED MAGE!
Red Mage strikes a pose as fireworks appear behind him. Thief, Fighter and White Mage clap.
Black Mage	Feh. Big deal. (thinking) I coulda done that. Er... if I knew the spell.
Red Mage	Here is my resume. I believe you will find everything in order.
Red Mage hands out character sheets to everyone.
Black Mage	Why does this look like a character sheet?
Thief	How were you able to get your stats so high as a level one character?
Red Mage	Oh, it's quite simple, really. I took a variety of low impact flaws to add points to my character point pool. Thus I maximize my powers and minimize my disadvantages.
Fighter	Gee. I just put everything into my 'use swords to kill stuff' skill.
Black Mage	Well that explains where your score in intelligence went.
Fighter	Yeah, well. Your intelligence... is the one with the uh score... you got beat up by a girl!
