PMD-Explorers: Team Ruin

ATTENTION: Arkae's design is very out of date.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

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.
