Arsehole of Scotland. Really IS a shithole. I know, I've had the misfortune to live there for the last 5 years.
Punctuated by a proudly melancholic people of stony face and hopeless demeanour. Narrow horizons are projected often through the assertion that they "wouldnae want to live onywhere else", having never ventured south of Dundee.
The city itself is entirely composed of grey, mildly radioactive rock from a local quarry. Often euphemised as "silver", it is important to assert that this is only a reference to the way in which the rock shines when wet from the ceaseless rain. The sun is seldom out without rain: earning an even more far-fetched euphemism of Aberdeen as: "the Rainbow city".

On becoming aware that an elderly woman was ill at ease with me, a male in my early twenties, standing at a bus stop in a rough area of Aberdeen, I seek to break the ice and put her at ease with some gentle conversation (We brits always make polite conversation about weather) :
Me: Day's looking better, was awfully grey this morning.
Old Woman: Fit? (It means "what" in Doric, a hilarious regional dialect of said shithole)
Me (Talking louder so the old dear could hear me): Terribly overcast this morning: but it's nicer now!
Old woman: Better overcast than sunny!
Me: Eh?
Old Woman: Terrible thing the sun. Gives ye cancer: the sun.(pronounced cOncer in doric...)
This "glass half-empty" approach to life is ubiquitous with the festering place. If misery could be bought the city would bankrupt itself.

Get the abedabed1144 mug.Richter Abend is a half-elf appearing in Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World as the "antagonist".
This is not entirely true, however.
In the first part of the game, the main character, Emil Castagnier, meets Richter. The man encourages Emil to stand up for himself, giving Emil his catchphrase, "Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality." This came from Richter's deceased friend, Aster. The two were researchers. They'd, in fact, met Ratatosk who was the guardian of the World Tree. Ratatosk had murdered Aster, then later took on his form, creating a fake personality for himself named Emil.
Richter didn't know Emil was actually Ratatosk. Richter wanted to break the barrier in the Ginungugap and bring back Aster with the help of the Centurion Aqua. He would then use himself as a seal on the door, sacrificing himself. So, all in all, Richter isn't a bad person. He just did the right thing the wrong way.
