According to new information released by Square Enix, neither the Judges nor the ruling house of the Solir will not be the most powerful, dangerous people in Ivalice. That power will, apparently, belong to the Senate. The Senate, comprised of elderly men, resides in the Imperial City of Archades and only speaks on top-secret state happenings.
Though they may not hold the power or influence of the Senate, the five Judge Masters of Ivalice are still a force to be reckoned with. The Judge Masters--Zalgabas, the belligerent Belga, Dreys (the only female Judge Master), Gies, and Gabras, who has some sort of a tie with Basch--will lead an army of lesser Judges that will likely be an incredibly powerful force.
Final Fantasy XII will debut in Japan on March 16th for 8,990 yen, or about $78 US.
