Student Name: Naoki Konishi
Student Specialties: Oh HELL YES this is his specialty, and the only reason he didn't bow out after phoning in the performance week.
Artwork: Three to five paintings of different angles of the Queen Elizabeth Theatre. One of them is the spot where Barry's piano and Chie's shoes were before they got sabotaged.
Category: painting
Meaning/Interpretation: ...well, it says he Doesn't Approve of the sabotaging and wants to expose whoever was behind it?
Magical Effects: These paintings should provide a window into last week, and will hopefully expose the saboteur, give or take jaunt-runner response how stealthy and/or disguised they were.
Quality: Exceptional
How About That Cranky Judge: She's bound to say something anyway...
Listen All of Y'all It's a Sabotage: Preferably not. It'd make his point a little too well.
Anti-Sabotage Tactics: Naoki's going to have a ward of his own creation up on his studio space. Other than himself, the only person who can get in without his express permission is Rise, since she's the only person here he really trusts. (He doesn't distrust his fellow champions, and doesn't particularly care if they see his work ahead of time, but... he's known them a total of two weeks.)
tonant: (I think it's gettin' better)

Student Name: Jack Smith
Student Specialties: This is absolutely his focus.
Artwork: A plush dragon, roughly the size of a dog. The head is felting, with embroidery detailing, the body, tail, and limbs are knit, and the wings, scales, and spikes are crochet.
Category: Textiles
Meaning/Interpretation: Strength through unity, unity through diversity.
Magical Effects: Each of the techniques adds a different effect to the piece. In addition to being animate (knitting) it's a ward against various kinds of ambient and targeted magic (crochet), projects a feeling of comfort and relaxation (felting), and the embroidery detailing throughout enhances each of the previous effects.
Quality: Exceptional.
How About That Cranky Judge: Of course!
Listen All of Y'all It's a Sabotage: Yes
Anti-Sabotage Tactics: Aside from the complete piece itself being a ward, he's spent most of the previous and current week stashed up in one of the Lone Star Wagons, and as of the performance round, he'll be sleeping in the wagon with his supplies and project. Additionally, any wards against magical effects he has will be set up with his projects when he's not physically with it.


Artwork: A square of knitting, roughly a foot in size, with neither end of the stitching secured, so anyone could unravel it.
Category: Sculpture (interactive)
Meaning/Interpretation: Keep rebuilding
Magical Effects: When unraveled, the knitting will reform. When burnt, it will protect itself, as long as some part of it is still knit. The same goes for any other magical or physical attack- as long as some part of it is knit, it will reform and resist the attack. Additionally, as soon as there is slack available, it will start to reform.
Quality: Exceptional.
How About That Cranky Judge: Of course!
Listen All of Y'all It's a Sabotage: Still very much a yes.
Anti-Sabotage Tactics: See previous entry.

Student Name: The right honourable Leopold Albert Charles Wilbur Felix Barnaby Marmaduke Aldermann, Baron of Maidstone, son of the Earl of Medway
Student Specialties: He normally focuses on performance poetry, written poetry is something that he's been trying to bring up to level for the last two years, but definitely isn't as strong for him
Artwork: A written poem
Category: Writing
Meaning/Interpretation: 'The truest form of protection comes from love'
Magical Effects: It creates a ward that protects the holder from magical effects. The ward will hold up against four or five good spells before it gives in.
Quality: Good. Unlike his performance entry, it's pretty clear that his heart isn't in the message, and it's fairly low on creativity. However, the form of the poem is good, and the spell holds up well, so the technical side is definitely there.
How About That Cranky Judge: Yes!
Listen All of Y'all It's a Sabotage: Also yes!
Anti-Sabotage Tactics: Since his work is a ward, he doesn't feel it necessary.
