Before an admin will lock this, hear me out. I know that there already is a topic about Lloyd Irving. But there are 2 reasons why I didn't post this in that topic:
1. The previous topic only had 2 posts in it. There were no real suggestions in it, so probally nobody would read that topic if I would post this there.
2. The previous topic was more then 1,5 month old. I didn't want to start bumping old topics, so I decided to make a new one about Lloyd.
If these reasons still didn't give me the rights to make this topic, then I'm very sorry and accept it that you will lock this topic.
Lloyd Irving from Tales of Symphonia:
Short biography *Warning: Spoilers*:
Lloyd Irving is a 17 years old boy who lives near a small town called Iselia. He is raised by Dirk, a dwarf who found Lloyd in the forest when he was just a baby. Who his real father and mother are, is unknown at the beginning of the game.
One of Lloyd's friends, Colette, is the Chosen of Regenaration. It is her task to bring mana back to the land of Sylvarant, wich is short on mana and is starting to decay.
Shortly after the Chosen leaves Iselia, Lloyd gets caught in an incident with the Desians, the bad guys of Sylvarant who capture humans and deport them to human ranches. The Desians burn the town of Iselia and Lloyd gets banished by the major of Iselia, since the destruction of Iselia is his fault. That's when Lloyd decides to follow Colette and join her on the journey of Regenaration.

Movelist:
A -> A vertical slash with right sword
A, A -> 2 vertical slashes with 1th the right, then the left sword
A, A, A -> Lloyd spins around and hits everyone that is left or right from him
Ftilt -> A orizontal slash with the right sword
Utilt -> Lloyd slashes both sword upwards
Dtilt -> Lloyd slashes the left sword downwards.
Dash -> Crossward slash (Lloyd holds the sword in a cross while he dashes, so pressing would lead into a crossward slash)
B -> Double Demon Fang: Lloyd slashes 1 time with each sword wich causes 2 small, white shockwaves that move in the direction wich Lloyd is looking. The 2th shockwave has a longer range then the 1th one. Getting hit by the slashes will also cause damage.
Forward B -> Sword Rain: Lloyd will make multiple stabs with both swords. The longer you charge this attack, the more stabs he will make.
Down B -> Demonic Circle: Lloyd will make a small downward slash, jump up a little (as high as a Mario short hop) and slam hard on the ground wich will create a shockwave in a small circle. This attack will give much knockback. Getting hit by the downward slash will also knock you back, but not as much as the circle shockwave.
Up B -> Tempest: This one is pretty hard to explain but I'll try. Lloyd makes a forward double salto wich makes him create some kind of circle in the air. While he does this, he holds his swords next to this body. This causes damage to everyone he hits. (If anyone knows a better way to explain this move, please do so: my English has his limited vocabulairy). This move recovers more horizontal than vertical.
Fair -> Lloyd slams his right sword down, while he slashes his left one up.
Uair -> Lloyd makes a backward salto, swinging both swords upwards.
Dair -> Lloyd will soar down diagonal to the side he faces while he holds his swords in front of this head. (For those who've played ToS, I stole the idea of Rising Falcon and changed it into an aerial move). This will cause him to fastfall too. If he lands on the ground while using this attack, it will cause lag equal to Link's Dair because both Lloyd's swords will be stuck in the ground.
Grab -> Lloyd puts his right sword back and grabs the opponent by his right shoulder.
Grab attack -> Lloyd hits the opponent with the hilt of his left sword.
Fthrow -> Lloyd slashes the opponent hard with his left sword causing some knockback (a bit like Sheik's Fthrow but then with a sword in stead of a fist).
Uthrow -> Lloyd throws the opponent up and slashes him with his left sword.
Dthrow -> Lloyd spins 180 degrees and throws the opponent down.
Bthrow -> Lloyd throws the opponent to the back and stings his left sword backwards while facing the other side.
Nice idea from FireBomb:
Super -> Falcon's Crest: Lloyd creates a circle of blue mana around him, causing damage to everyone who stands in it. Then there is a little explosion, causing all the opponents to fly up a little. Lloyd then jumps up, says: 'I'll show you divine justice!' and slams the ground to cause even more mana to come up. This wil deal massive damage to everyone in the circle and also sends them flying.

Victory poses:
1. -> Lloyd throws both swords up, catches them and puts them into his scabbards while he says: 'You picked the wrong guy to mess with.'
2. -> Lloyd raises his right sword, then lowers it and says: 'I was just warming up.'
3. -> Lloyd makesa diagonal slash with his left sword followed by a diagonal slash with his right sword, then stabs his right sword to the front and says: 'That was way to easy.'
Why Lloyd should be in Brawl:
Lloyd Irving is the main character in Tales of Symphonia, the only Tales of the World game for a console that has been released in the U.S. and Europe. Up till now, many people still agree that this is one of the best RPG's for the Nintendo Gamecube, together with Skies of Arcadia: Legends.
But why did I pick Lloyd then? Well, as a main character, he is with you the whole time. The only times that he isn't in your team, is if you have to split up your group (wich only happens 2 times) and when you make groups to fight in the arena. So if you like it or not, you will see him through almost the whole game.
*Warning: More spoilers*
Also, the story first focuses on Colette since she is the Chosen, but after a while it turns out that Lloyd is more important then Colette. His Exsphere (the blue sphere you can see on his left arm on the 1th picture at the top of this post) is special. It has been created in a very special experiment called the Angelus Project and was actually tested on his mother. Sadly, she didn't have a Key Crest(that's the yellow circle around Lloyd's Exsphere) around her Exsphere wich made her turn into a monster. Lloyd's father then had to kill his mother to stop her suffering. He took the Exsphere and gave it to Lloyd when he left him in the forest. This Exsphere is way more powerfull than any Exsphere that has been produced. This makes Lloyd even stronger.
My personal opinion about Lloyd is that I really love this guy. He is the strongest character in the game with the best skills. His personality is also cool, he is not too smart so this sometimes results into funny situations like when he thinks an insult was meant as a compliment. I've played ToS several times now, and everytime I played a lot with him. Of course, I also used other characters but Lloyd was my main character for reall boss battles and not for joking around.
But why should he be in Brawl then? I know that most people always complain about sword fighters. Ok, an axe fighter would indeed be cool but we also didn't have somebody who could handel two swords at the same time (no, don't start making jokes about Marth/Roy/Link/Young Link with a Laser Sword). Although it maybe isn't that likely for him to get in Brawl, he could be a decent fighter and it would please me to play with him somewhere in 2007. And then I mean, playing with him on the Wii.
EDIT: Well, I haven't seen this topic for a long time yet I'm back. I heared that a sequal of Tales of Symphonia is going to be released in Japan next year. The game is called Tales of Symphonia: Knight of Ratatosk. It has been confirmed that we will see the characters from the NGC game again, yet the report of the Dutch Wiigamer site says that they will not be playable. Even though, I wouldn't be surprised if Lloyd would have a big role again. I mean, Juan was also not playable yet he was pretty important.
