"Y-Yeah!" Ruiji whines, "A-And when I came up here to trick-or-treat, a big meanie prankster stole all my candy and told me to butt out! Then he blew me up! I-I wanted a treat, n-not a trick, BAAAAAAWWWWWWW! N-Now I don't have any candy, I was all alone and cold up here, i-it's dark, and I thought I was gonna freeze to death! Thank goodness you showed up Mr. Calem!"
All apprentices require a background check before they can do any apprenticing, and Ruiji is no different. He explains to you in short, his life story and reasoning for being out here so late at night: Lured into the treacherous Victory Road with promises of free candy, only to get all of his candy taken away in return. It seems all the bullying he's taken tonight has pushed him over the edge, and now he wants to fight back.
Personally, you've dealt with pranksters like these before (some more /jingly/ than others), so not only do you empathize with the little rock, you also want to help him take back what's his now more than ever.
"Thank goodness I did indeed, young sprout! Now listen closely: Rule #1 of The Way of The Hero! . . .
You need a cool costume, like mine!""Ohhhhhh.." Ruiji nods and begins taking mental notes, his eyes beaming with amazement as you twirl around with a twinkly glow.
>What kind of cool costume?
