My gift is not of blinding speed
Or overwhelming might.

My gift is not of iron will,
Unflinching in a fight.

My gift is not that special;
This the numbers clearly say.

And so it may surprise you
When I beat you anyway.

Have you ever noticed how sometimes the numbers given don't explain the outcome? I'm not saying numbers are useless. I'm just saying that sometimes the wrong things are measured, that other things get overlooked, and that you can't look at everything the same way without missing something.

Though dreamstuff lacks the solidity of more conventional combat methods, it's a flexible and surprising weapon in the hands of the creative and persistent. If you're looking for a simple and straightforward fighter that hits hard and fast, perhaps one of my associates will be more to your liking. If you enjoy the thought of forcing your opponents to watch their "sure win" slip from their fingers, then I'm your man.

In regards to the artwork and wordplay, I could say quite a bit, but the thing that jumps most to mind is this: I had an obscene amount of fun with this. Thanks to ~scrotumnose and *fayrenpickpocket for coming up with the idea for this community phenomenon.
