[edit] Armor
Acolyte Sousuke starts with Elementalist Zaishen armor, which is nearly identical in appearance to blue Elementalist Shing Jea armor, as well as a Zaishen Eye for a headgear. His armor has an armor rating of 34 to 60, depending on his level.
The appearance of his armor can be upgraded to Elite Sunspear Armor using Stolen Sunspear Armor acquired from the Dajkah Inlet Challenge Mission. The appearance of his armor can be upgraded to Primeval armor using Primeval Armor Remnants acquired in the Domain of Anguish and during the Ebony Citadel of Mallyx mission.
See Acolyte Sousuke's armor gallery.
[edit] Dialogue
Sun Docks, Plains of Jarin, and Zehlon Reach:
- "Well, good day! My name is Sousuke. You're lucky you've come upon me in a good mood. I've fried people for looking at me like that. Ha, ha. Just kidding! I'm usually very careful with my elemental magic. I wouldn't hurt a fly. Well, perhaps, if it was Kournan."
Throne of Secrets:
- "The fire! The explosions! The valiant fights! It's a tale of heroes, and you're the greatest one!"
[edit] Quotes
[edit] Storyline quotes
Quotes in the context of the Nightfall storyline:
- "Mmm-hm. This Jerek... did one of you date his sister or something?"
- "Kormir has gone to Cantha, leaving me to hold down the fort, as it were! I am very excited about working with the Sunspears."
- "Praying to Dwayna is all well and good, but I prefer a nice festival of Lyss, [sic] myself. Brilliant lights, dancing girls, and plenty of food and drink for everyone. Now THAT's prayer!"
- "For Istan and Cantha!"
- "I'm ready! You're ready! Koss is ... not paying attention."
- "I heard the others talking. They don't think you can find a place to protect all the Sunspears. Let's prove them wrong."
- "You really think we can get Koss out of that Kournan garrison? I suppose if we take the right spells, bring a few hundred soldiers... what, no soldiers? Spells it is, then!"
- "We did it! They thought it impossible, but the joke's on them. Let's finish the job!"
- "Are you sure we can get through this? I'll have to trust your leadership on this one, my friend!"
- "Warmarshal Varesh has no idea how much trouble we're going to cause her. Oh, yes, I can feel my spirits lifting already."
- "Vabbi? I've never been to Vabbi. What should I bring? What are the well-dressed Elementalists wearing these days?"
- "We should head to the Sunspear Sanctuary and find out what the gossip is there."
- "I was told that once that [sic] Kournan work camp was once a sprawling estate. How tragic to see it turned into something this vile."
- "Jahai Bluffs? The monument to Palawa Joko's defeat? I hear the place is haunted. It will make for an enjoyable visit."
- "We're committed now. Listen to the Master of Whispers; he knows what he's doing."
- "Water demons? Fire spells!"
- "Glad we have a map. Mind if I carry it?"
- "I have friends in the priesthood of Lyssa back home. I should write them of this."
- "A party in Vabbi! Keep your ears open. These princes gossip like old housewives."
- "Perhaps we should bake a cake with the word "TRAP" on it and bring it along. It's never a good idea to go visiting empty-handed."
- "We have to warn Kehanni!"
- "The Hidden City of Ahdashim. I like the way that sounds. Dark and mysterious. Maybe it's something wonderful..."
- "Defend the citadel to my last breath! Or, almost last. Personally, I'd rather use my last breath to curse at someone. I'll defend the citadel to my next-to-last breath!"
- "It's a vault. A lousy vault. Bah."
- "I heard Koss and Melonni talking. It wasn't their usual run-off-the-mill-fight, so I think they're getting along again."
- "Tahlkora is amazing! And to think, just a short time ago, she was a scared little girl."
- "The Forum Highlands isn't a very good place for earth spells. The stone's too soft. Then again, if I had to listen to all those Vabbians talk for years on end, I might go a little soft in the head, too."
- "Isn't there something we were supposed to do in the Marga Coast?"
- "Poor Melonni! But...the Garden! Oh, such a tough decision. I hate these kinds of things."
- "Zerai again. He always sends us all across creation. I wonder how many places we'll visit this time before we're done?"
- "I've never had second thoughts about being a Zaishen, but Palawa Joko wasn't in the contract!"
- "Hmmm. Joko's Domain. Well, that could be snappier. Joko's Towering Palace of Doom!"
- "No matter how much creativity you put into it, a wurm is still a wurm, and I think the best thing for them would be some orange sauce, a little cinnamon, and a stiff dose of fire."
- "Varesh is bad, but Palawa Joko really gets under my skin. Until skale figure out how to get rabies and communicate zombie-disease, Palawa Joko's going to be the scariest thing in the world."
- "Which is worse: to be eaten by these creatures, or trapped in this terrible place? I can't decide!"
- "This place is like my worst nightmares...the ones inspired by those little pickles."
- "Ssssh. Be quiet. I thought I saw movement over there, behind those rocks. Abaddon is everywhere..."
- "Well, at least things here still burn!"
- "It must be horrible to be one of those lost Sunspear scouts. To be totally...alone."
- "Shiro the Betrayer! I can't think of anyone else in Cantha whose soul deserves eternal torment more than his."
- Nightfall campaign completed:
- "I look forward to exploring more of Elona... now that it's not about to be eradicated by Nightfall."
Idle quotes that appear to be independent of the storyline:
- "I wonder what the Sunspears were doing so far north? How very odd."
- "Understanding is half the battle, the other half is fireballs."
[edit] Battle quotes
- "Are you kidding me?"
- "Balthazar shall smite you!"
- "Burn 'em down!"
- "Call, fire! Summon, wind!"
- "Did you see that?!"
- "Free the elements! Scorch the ground!"
- "I can handle this!"
- "I've never cast this before. Hang on!"
- "Oooh. That's a good one!"
- "That blew up good. That blew up REAL good." (paraphrase from a Second City Television comedy skit)
- "The power of the elements is at my command!"
- "That was the best fight ever!"
- "Whoa! That had to hurt!"
[edit] Notes
- A duplicate Acolyte Sousuke will show up as a "Zaishen Elementalist".
- Acolyte Sousuke's default weapon is a customized blue Fire Wand with 8-13 fire damage, an attribute requirement of 5 Fire Magic and HCT 10% Fire Magic spells. His default offhand item is an uncustomized white Iridescent Prism with +8 Energy, +20 health, and an attribute requirement of 5 Energy Storage.
- As with most heroes, this one has a tonic form.
[edit] Trivia
- Acolyte Sousuke gives many the impression that his design had been influenced by the Naruto manga or anime, although there are also strong opinions that the character is merely a common archetype and that the name is nothing more than being similar to the common Japanese names of "Sousuke" or "Sasuke". The proponents draw the similarity from the fact that a character named Sasuke Uchiha in the series hails from a family that specialises in fire-based techniques and that Acolyte Sousuke's character also bears similarity to the main protagonist of that series, Naruto Uzumaki.
