Lloyd

Line 34:

Lloyd is depicted as a stereotypically nerdy person, being shy and intelligent, and frequently bullied by several of his fellow schoolchildren; he is as a result usually found hiding in trash cans while being at school. As a toddler, he did already display introverted qualities, not letting anyone besides his mother be affectionate toward him. Lloyd already showed a liking of his idol, [[wikipedia:Einstein|Albert Einstein]], at an extremely young age, when he read a book by him on the subject of the [[wikipedia:Theory of relativity|theory of relativity]], which became one of his most treasured possessions when he grew up. He is shown to have a strong liking for science, mainly mechanics, as he is seen to be able to activate industrial rockets and navigate military tanks; one of his fellow schoolmates also mentions how she thinks that Lloyd will grow up to become a computer engineer.<ref>"I think Lloyd will grow up and be a computer engineer." - NPC</ref> His main weapons in-game, only being usable by him, are [[Gun#In Mother|guns]]. He also likes to experiment with mechanical objects, as can be seen in the game when he tries to reproduce a [[List of battle items in Mother#Bottle Rocket|Bottle Rocket]]. Physical education is his least favorite school subject, being something in which he shows little interest. Despite the fact that he is almost daily subjected to bullying, he is more determined than most of his other classmates, doing his best to manage through the days. When he has gone home after school, he usually spends his time on science, together with his father. Later during night, he sleeps for approximately three hours,<ref>[[:File:SomeRoidInfo.jpg|Excerpt from Lloyd's Encyclopedia Mother Entry]]</ref> usually falling asleep while using his microscope. Lloyd also owns an [[wikipedia:Apple Inc.|Apple Computer]], which usually greets him in the morning, and he is revealed to love a certain theme from the movie [[wikipedia:Ben-Hur (1959 film)|Ben-Hur]].<ref>[http://kenisu.webs.com/motherencyclopedia.htm MOTHER Encyclopedia - The Suburbs of kenisu's Magicant]</ref>

Lloyd's six most treasured possessions are his theory of relativity book, his PC software, his [[wikipedia:Superman|Superman]] doll, his tool set, his eyeglasses, and his trophy from the "Pan-American Concentration Convention: Boy's Division Championship".<ref>[[:File:LloydsFavoriteThings.gif|Excerpt from Lloyd's Encyclopedia Mother Entry]]</ref> He found the theory of relativity book on his [[Lloyd's father|father]]'s bookshelf at the age of three, and it sparked his interest for Albert Einstein during the following years. He mainly uses his PC to play games, and he can sometimes display aggressive behavior upon losing a game or if a game starts to malfunction. The Superman doll is one of his few possessions that ~~doesn't~~ pertain to science, where it's hinted that it may be due to him being able to identify himself with Superman, as he has two roles: one as an ordinary man, and one as a hero. His tool set serves more as a memento rather than building devices, as that specific tool set is the first one he ever got, being bought by his mother. Lastly, the trophy he got at the convention was one he managed to win after having displayed an impressive memory capacity, though all that is left of the actual trophy is its stand, as he has used the copper that the trophy consisted of for his various experiments.<ref>[[:File:LloydsFavoriteThings.gif|Excerpt from Lloyd's Encyclopedia Mother Entry]]</ref><ref>[http://kenisu.webs.com/motherencyclopedia.htm MOTHER Encyclopedia - The Suburbs of kenisu's Magicant]</ref>

The three of them then head back to the Union Station in Merrysville, where they detour around the broken railroad tracks in order to reach the [[Yucca Desert|desert]] on the other side. After walking through the sand-ridden area for a while, the party encounters a cactus that seemingly appears to have a face. After communicating with it [[Telepathy|telepathically]], the cactus will start to sing the [[Eight Melodies|fifth melody]], which the party memorizes. After walking around the desert further, the party meets an old man, who will give them his tank in exchange for ten [[List of key items in Mother#Ticket Stub|Ticket Stub]]s, which can be purchased from him. With the tank in their possession, the trio discovers the entrance to a [[Ruins of Desert|ruin]] situated in the desert; they are however stopped by a [[R7037|huge robot]], whom they are engaged in a battle with. They manage to defeat the mechanical being, but unfortunately lose the tank in the process. They then enter the ruins, and after having gone around the monkey-filled, maze-like area for a while, they find an odd-looking stone that when checked transports them to [[Magicant]].

The party walks to the [[Magicant Underground]], being the residence to a sleeping dragon, that upon feeling [[Ninten]]'s presence battles them. The dragon starts to sing the [[Eight Melodies|sixth melody]] after being defeated, and then simply goes back to sleep. When exiting the underground, the party are teleported to a cave northwest of [[Youngtown]]. They pass through the town, and continue towards a [[swamp]]. While progressing through the swamp, the party briefly meets [[Lloyd's father]], hiding in a trash can in front of a house. He asks for [[the player]]'s name if they ~~didn't~~ input it on their visit in [[Snowman]], and then tells them to look out for Lloyd, stating that he is a real weakling. Later, the trio arrives at the city of [[Ellay]].

Later, the trio arrives at the city of [[Ellay]].

In Ellay, after having purchased a [[List of key items in Mother#Ticket|ticket]], the party gets to perform in front of an audience in a building called the [[Live House]]. The leader of the [[Bla-Bla Gang|local gang]], [[Teddy]], does however confront them after the act, and a fight takes place onstage. The battle is however ended abruptly by Teddy, who is impressed by Ninten's fighting ability. He says that he wants to revenge the death of his parents, and that they must head off to the mountains in order to do so. He then forces Lloyd to leave the party, being doubtful in his strength, and thereafter replaces him, while also taking all his items with him.

Line 54:

During a later segment of the game, Lloyd makes a return when the party has been attacked by a [[R7038|giant robot]] at [[Mt. Itoi]], where he brings along another tank. He places them inside the tank and takes them down to a house at the base of the mountain, where a doctor resides and offers them free treatment. Teddy did however get more damage from the attack than [[Ninten]] and [[Ana]] and must stay in the house, having his place taken by Lloyd, who states that it is time for himself to prove his strength.

The party continues up the mountain, where they eventually find a boat situated near a lake. After boarding the boat, they notice that the motor ~~isn't~~ working; Lloyd does however manage to fix it without much struggle. After going around the lake for a while, they get sucked into a hidden facility on the bottom of the lake, where they meet a robot named [[Eve]]. After a cutscene, where the facility breaks down and all of them end up on the shore of the lake, Eve joins their team. Farther up the mountain, the party battles a third [[R7038XX|gigantic robot]], who successfully defeats Eve, but the gigantic robot is also destroyed due to the impact of the explosion caused by the destruction of Eve. The remnants of Eve is however revealed to contain the [[Eight Melodies|seventh melody]], leaving the party with only one melody left to memorize.

The three of them find a gravestone on the mountain's peak, which once checked, plays the [[Eight Melodies|eighth and final melody]]. They then return to Magicant, where [[Queen Mary]], the one who requested Ninten to learn all the eight melodies, resides. They sing all the melodies they have retrieved for her, and she succeeds in remembering the song as a result. Her memory is then entirely brought back to her, and she is revealed to actually be the great-grandmother of Ninten, [[Maria]], and it also revealed that Queen Mary and Magicant are mere illusions created from her consciousness. Magicant, along with all of its inhabitants, then cease to exist, and Maria dies in order to join her [[George|husband]].
