Month: December 2010

Today we reintroduce Hyuga Ryght. He's the young company president of GRM!

 

Hyuga Ryght

 

"Hyuga Ryght, 20 years old and a Dewman. At one time he has worked diligently with Ethan Waber, and has perfected his sword skills since then.  He's been pretty much incognito here and there for quite some time. With his handsomely good looks and persuasive speech, he has charmed many a women. Yet he's still prudent after being transformed into a Dewman. He has accepted this transformation as the Holy Light's guidance. However, he can not resist the urge to look at women, so he has taken the opportunity to introduce himself to that one researcher known as Emilia."

Oooooo How bout that!?

Even though Hyuga is a new character, he's been pretty much familiar to anyone playing Phantasy Star Universe or PSPo1. During those times he was around 17 years old. He hid the fact that he was the son of the GRM president at the time, then later in Ambition of Illuminus, he was infected by the SEED that eroded him away.

Initially he  was troubled by the events of his transformation into a Dewman, but now stands tall accepting his fate.

Interesting Finalists

Hatsuhanatsuki

A kimono style outfit of a Dewman. She has a Japanese playing card covering the eye instead of the typical eyepatch.

Girls Knight

The artist's first contribution. She imagined a female knight. Her line shield is the yellow lining on her outfit. The lily motif is supposed to shine or something.

Pop Cuteen

A cute and pop style outfit as a girl's uniform. That little kakuwane will come in different colors. Near the belt are these little "girls scout"-like patches which are references to PSO.

[designer: yurine]

 

Dreadnought

Is this a rifle? A Sword? Nope! It's a double saber. The GRM company developed this weapon to exterminate the SEED.

[designer: hoehoe]

 

PF Dinobite

Another GRM weapon created by Professor Dinoski. Fusing the power of SCIENCE with a monster created this wild mechanical sword. The photon is within the mouth and is flame like. The mouth opens up even when you swing the sword.

Blitz Blatz

It is a miniature battle ship that's used as a figure for the handgun.

[designer: Joker]

Air Shooter

Air Shooter is a machine gun that shoots out tornados. The photon is represented in the bullet itself. It will change the tornado's color with a slight glow of the element.

[designer: Ver.wa]

 

Nekomanma

Nekomanma which is apparently slang for catfood has an interesting story behind it. Apparently the artist has never played PSPo2 at all. It was made for Female Newmans. Pumpkin-san, the designer, later posted that they realized they didn't add a line shield to the outfit because they never knew of such a thing. So Pumpkin-san decided that the eyes on the cat are the line shield. The bag may have a similar shade of green, but the cat's eyes are officially the line shield.
