Pewter


 * "Attack with molten metal through defenses."

Location
Pewter is first encountered in Kolima Village after saving the Dream Tree. After a cutscene with Tret and Laurel in Kolima Forest, Pewter automatically joins the party.

Battle Effect
When unleashed, the user performs a normal Venus-elemental physical attack with damage increased by 50%. This attack has a chance to ignore 50% of the target's Defense score.

Pewter's Djinn Guide entry is as follows:
 * "Laurel uses this spirit of emotion as her envoy, sometimes to her regret. Pewter's attack can penetrate strong defenses with molten metal."

Name Origin
Pewter is an alloy which consists of huge amounts of lead and lesser amounts of copper, antimony and bismuth. It was mainly used during the Bronze Age.

Trivia
Pewter is one of only three Djinn, along with Flint and Echo, to talk, and is the only Djinn that talks that isn't the player's first Djinn. The party finds Pewter annoying at first and is asked by Laurel to mind his manners.

Interestingly, all three Djinn deal base damage plus a percentage amount of around 50%, and have no other effect on the battle than dealing damage (Pewter may randomly ignore half of the target's Defense, but that simply increases the damage of that attack).

Quotes

 * In Kolima Village:
 * Pewter: "Hey-looks like you saved the Dream Tree! Nice work, flesh-guys!"
 * Tyrell: "Huh? Who are you?!"
 * Pewter: "You LOOK like an Adept, but you don't know a Djinni when you see one? Not too bright, tinderfoot. I see you've even got a few Venus Djinn with you. What, am I funny looking or something?"
 * Rief: "Forgive us-we weren't actually looking for Djinn inside the tree... or indeed at all."
 * Pewter: "Whatever. You'd have to be wet behind the ears to miss me, though. You guys really need to work on your sense of humor. Tell you what-I'll wink when it's time to laugh."
 * Amiti: "Are you here simply to annoy us, or have you come with a purpose?"
 * Pewter: "Oh, dry up, Mr. Wet Blanket."
 * Karis: "Look, if you have business with us, out with it. Otherwise, we'd appreciate it if you'd leave us alone."
 * Pewter: "Fine, fine. I'll deliver my message and stop bringing a sense of joy and laughter to the world. "For saving the Dream Tree, I most humbly thank you..." yackity-shmackity and like that."
 * Karis: "Yackity-shmackity? What are you talking about?"
 * Pewter: "Eh, Laurel said some other stuff, too, but I can't remember what it was. You can ask when you see her." (If Matthew responds with sadness) "Y'know, those tears are gonna make it a lot harder to get through Kolima Forest without tripping."


 * Pewter: "Hey, easy does it, big fella! Looks like you're gonna burst something there."
 * Tyrell: "What do you expect when you just pop out of nowhere like that?!"
 * Pewter: "Please. THAT got you all hot and bothered? Not much of a warrior, are you?"
 * Laurel: "Pewter, I have warned you about being polite to guests."


 * Laurel: "I prefer to think of us as beings whose long lives allow us to gather a share of the world's knowledge."
 * Amiti: "I must respectfully disagree. The qualities you describe are the very essence of divinity."
 * Pewter: "What part of "I'm not a god" do you not understand, fishbrain?"
 * Laurel: "That's enough, Pewter."


 * Pewter: "Well, you impressed the boss lady, anyway. So congratulations! You just scored some major help in your quest thingy. ...And Laurel said something about me getting some experience in the field... What, are you new? I'm joining your merry little band! So we're all on the same scroll? Good. Let's get going."
