Xaldin Mug
How often is it that people take Xaldin and give him a personality that seems less intelligent than what he really is? He is truly a brilliant man, as his time as one of the Apprentices would indicate, and it is doubtful that he has quite the penchant for stabbing and drinking that so many seem to think he has. True, one doesn't learn terribly much of him from the game, but he does prove that he can think and plan things out quite well, even under pressure. And yet instead of basing his personality off of what he does and says, so many people seem to enjoy basing it off of their interpretation of his appearance. Yes, just before the battle against him begins, he asks, "Where's the fun in this?" but couldn't he be asking it out of boredom from the belief that fighting is less interesting to him than taking the time to learn about someone and attempt to manipulate them. It’s true that that's not overly positive either, but it’s likely that Xaldin is far more restrained than most people seem to consider him. He hides his thoughts from the world, keeping them to himself with a strict discipline, similar to that of Saïx. Along the same line of thought, consider how much work it would take to control six lances so finely all at the same time. Wouldn't that itself require a great deal of concentration? And so Xaldin, becomes an incredibly deep character, where nothing outside of his discipline and intelligence are recognized for sure. To some, Xaldin seems to be a sad character, with a deep pain kept inside, where no one can see it. The scars from things he has done, the ways he learned things, and even the things that were done to him that he didn’t deserve are all locked away in the dark, hidden behind a wall of perpetual loneliness and distrust. And those are, in turn, veiled by his immense discipline. This control allows him to do things such as the actions shown in the game. Yes, Xaldin grinned as he abducted Belle, but she was simply part of his plan, a continuation of how he was rousing the Beast’s ire. After what was likely a very cold and unforgiving past, perhaps that malicious grin of his is the only way he can express himself to those he cannot trust. Despite his immense strength and discipline, the Lancer also seems as though he has his moments of weakness, often when no one else is there to witness them. He quite possibly goes out during the night and gazes at the moon, thinking, remembering, and comparing. He might occasionally have nightmares, visions of a traumatic past that he’d rather forget. The distrust that he would have developed keeps him from telling even those he manages to grow close to the whole truth and cause him to keep the terrible pain to himself, not out of concern for the others but to keep them from leaving. Behind his brilliance, hidden beneath so many protective layers, is likely really just a simple child, trying to find someone that will stay with him, no matter his flaws but with the misbelief that he must hide the darkest parts of himself and what he’s been through. Regretfully, this is merely an overview of a more thoughtful way of looking at Xaldin’s character, of attempting to see the man hidden behind the fierce appearance.

My brother Tom became an uncle & urban dictionary created a wonderful uncle Tom mug…
It is special to have a mug that has to do with my dad who invented a word when we were growing up. He passed away last year. Drinking from this mug is like spending time with him.

I bought a Prone mug and i love it its so good imma prone to the bathroom now brb
This mug gives my life purpose. It's what I've always said. Patience is a virtue and hard work never betrays. Ever since I was born I've been struck with one misfortune after another, but today it all paid off. I got my own mug, and I use it anywhere and whenever I can! Both of my legs are shattered because to my wife threw me in the middle of traffic and my windpipe is messed up due to me screaming all the way from the crash site to the hospital thanks to the unbearable pain I was feeling. Although even with all that's happened this is still the best day of my life. I suppose the only problem I have is that whenever I happen to look at my cup I get a little too happy. That causes problems because my life support can't handle my exhilaration, haha! I'm just kidding; that was just a little lighthearted joke of mine. I actually cannot afford life support because I spent all of my life savings on this fine piece of pottery. Not to worry though! I can get through the pain with my will and drugs - I mean medication. P.S. There are definitely no ghosts in the mugs. Just wanted to point that out in case someone was worried about that.
I bought two mugs as gifts for coworkers and they were very pleased. The print was clear and concise. Hopefully they last a long time.
Ordered a gift for a friend I hope he likes it :)
Mug was well-packed when received. Shipping was timely. The mug was as advertised. Very nice.

My Name is Walter Hardwell White, My Mug was sent to 308 Negra Aroyal Lane, AQ, New Mexico and arrived on-time and I am very satisfied. My "Glock Dookie" mug is great for my lab work, and my friend Pinkman loves it!
I love this cup! My now ex-husband loves his opioids more than life itself. He would constantly pass out dead to the world the only thing I would here was his death moans. I had to call an aid car for him so many time that I can't remember plus 2 or 3 times the doctors told me that if it wasn't for me, he would have died. Her abandoned me after I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer because I was of no use to him any longer. I have no clue now who must be the one that's obligated to save his life any longer. All I know is I'm free from him now. The only thing I'm waiting for is that he finally overdoses himself & he's dead. I am buying a cup to send to him for our divorce anniversary gift so he can keep it in memory of how he treated me.
I loved it! Excellent quality!
I received the mug as a gift from a friend with whom I exchange "Weekaversary" eMails. I love the concept but am wondering why "aniversary" is spelled with only one "n?"
Wish it had the example text as well, but I loved it anyway
