~The Legendary Sand Crafter

"A brilliant but fragile artisan was I even at an early age, my skills with the play-doh and sand had invoked both jealousy and ire of bullies from far and while. In face of their constant harassment, I have developed a technique called the Sand Bath Maneuver. Through rapidly building a mountain of sand and bury myself underneath, I was able to construct a strong defense that allowed me to blunt the assault of the bullies. However, though this technique was much more effective defensively than the make-believe armor which I had previous deployed against the bullies, it has the drawbacks of rendering its user immobile and unable to attack. Furthermore, it is lacking in aesthetic beauty and artistry. And for the latter reason, I had employed this technique only once before reverting to the donning of the pretend armor. For though it was lacking in defensibility, the little armor is far more aesthetically pleasing and infinitely more graceful.You have to understand, my friend, that for the consummate artisan such as myself, form is above function and sentimentality is above all. And as one of the the earliest creation which I had crafted as a toddler, that cute little armor will always be legendary in my heart."
