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

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
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.
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!" -__-
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
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.:)
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!
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?
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.
