Balthier is a lot like a pirate character of mine in my writing. My character has a very similar attitude, except he's much more of a charismatic charmer and can be a bit of a nutter at times. His tone of voice and language style is also very similar, except he's got more of a pirate accent although still sounding posh. Balthier is giving me a lot of inspiration.
I'll have to find some quotes in my game that are relevant enough for this topic. >_<'
