-Al-Cid Malgaras

-Marquis Harum Ondore IV

-Gran Kiltias Anastasis

-King Raminas Vanalgan Dalmasca

-Judge Master Gabranth

-Balthier Bunanza

-Larsa Ferrinas Solidor

-Vossler York Azelas

IMO this game has the coolest names out of any FF.

[Sefie1999AD]

I guess using eccentric names is typical for Matsuno. FF Tactics had pretty special names too, such as Ramza Beoulve, Princess Ovelia Atkascha, Druksmald Goltana, Wiegraf Folles etc. Oh, and is Balflear his official name? I've heard Balthear more frequently.

[Dynast-Kid]

Balflear is his Japanese name.

Balthier is his English name.

Is Ashe pronounced Ash as in Ashtray? :p

[Dynast-Kid]

I'm not sure.

I've ben pronouncing it Aw-Sh.Despite the spelling.I think I read the pronunciation somewhere(Wikipedia I think)and have atarted pronouncing it like that ever since.

How do you pronounce Basch?

I watched a trailer and someone pronounced his name like Ba-Sh.

[feona17]

I'm not sure.

:laughing: Yeah I say Bawsh o.o

[Dynast-Kid]

I thought i was pronounced Ba-Sk.

I don't really like the name Fran.I don't think it really fits in with all of the other cool names.

[feona17]

Fran reminds me of that 90s show with the nanny with that horrible laugh and I think her name was Fran, but anyway. Fran's name should've been something more... exotic.

Here are two other characters that may be in the game quite a bit, I'm not sure.

Vayne Solidor

Larsa Solidor

[Dynast-Kid]

Yeah she totally reminds me of Fran Drescher from the Nanny.

And those are pics of Vayne and Larsa Solidor and they will be key plot characters.

Vayne is the oldest surviving son of Emperor Gramis Solidor.He's also the consul of Dalmasca.

Larsa is Emperor Gramis Solidor's youngest surviviing son and has a connection to the mysterious mineral Nethicite...

[atlanteay]

i've always thought larsa was a girl XP until recently anyway

These names are gonna be hard to pronounce, time to wait for the release

[feona17]

Larsa is a male?!

[No.78]

I always thought Larsa was a girl, then I found out he was a little boy... I mean, what the heck.

What I wanna know is, are these 2 playable? Cos I think Vayne's gonna be my faviroute character XD

[Dynast-Kid]

Vayne is one of the main villians.

Larsa is an ally who temporarily joins your party.

I hadn't realized until I read it at The Skies Above that Balthier shared his last name with Besrodio and, more importantly, Mustadio from FFT.

Now it really comes as no surprise he's so good with guns and everything engineering :D

[No.78]

Vayne is one of the main villians.

Larsa is an ally who temporarily joins your party.

Nice a villain, why am I always liking the villains? WHY ARE THE VILLAINS ALWAYS BETTER?! Except seymour he doesn't count.

A Final Fantasy just aint a final fantasy with out the one hyper active Person,In the case i mean Pennelo Shes just like yuffie or rikku and i love them all they're so funny i bet Pennelo will be just like rikku or yuffie

[Dynast-Kid]

In another thread I started,someone who has played the game stated that Penelo and Rikku's only real shared trait is their blonde hair.

Penelo's "Rikku" moments are few and far between,and are only added to break away from the seriousness of the other characters.

Penelo is more like Yuna than Rikku.

[feona17]

I want Penelo to be Penelo. Rikku was Rikku and I liked her the way she was, well, in FFX. I want to get to know Penelo's character without thinking, "OMGOSH WTF LOL SO RIKKU!" -__-

[Dynast-Kid]

I thought that Penelo was gonna be the next Yuffie/Selphie/Rikku because of Square's tendency to put young,happy,hyper,teenage girls.

But I guess it's really the Nomura designed females that are the happy/hyper/teenage girls...

I'd say Penelo was more refreshing than hyper, hence my comparison with Yuna. But, I'd go with feona17's comment saying that Penelo has a personality of her own: she's really neither Rikku nor Yuna nor anyone else we've played so far, which is a very good thing!

I'm really looking forward to see what they will make her sound like in the English localization

[Dynast-Kid]

I heard her voice in some trailer somewhere and it reminded me of Tara Strong.

And it's good to know Penelo is her own person,not a Rikku or Yuna.:)

[Tanwen Strife]

Saying every FF has to have a hyperactive kid got me thinking about the usual types they have in FF's. There's the hyper active kid (Yuffie, Selphie, Eko, Rikku), the tormented soul (Cloud, Vincent, Squall, Vivi, Lulu), the beautiful woman with a terrible weight on their shoulders (Aries, Rinoa, Dagger, Yuna) and the bloke just trying to do his job (Barret, Cid, Steiner, Wakka).

It looks like they're all there in this one, except they've made one horrible mistake. The villian that looks like a girl doesn't look like a girl!

[Dynast-Kid]

Tormented Soul=Basch

Beautiful Woman w/ Terrible Weight on Shoulders=Ashe

Just Trying to do His/Her Job=Fran and Balthier?

Who is the hyperactive kid?Vaan maybe?

[feona17]

Tormented Soul=Basch

Beautiful Woman w/ Terrible Weight on Shoulders=Ashe

Just Trying to do His/Her Job=Fran and Balthier?

Who is the hyperactive kid?Vaan maybe?

Maybe there isn't one in this game. =/

[Dynast-Kid]

Awww...No hyper kid...

Well,this FF is known as the one that is so "different" than the others so,no hyper active kid would fit I guess.
