: Good day, members of the Eyes on Final Fantasy Forums. My name is Lenna and this is my sister Faris. We are here to present the nominees for Best Heroine.
: Do I have ta wear this?
: Yes, you have to dress and act appropriately and ladylike for such formal events.
: My feet hurt and I can't breathe!
: ...Oooh! I have an idea! Let's try and do as many costume changes as possible for this speech!
: I will dress as a pirate... then a pirate... then another pirate!
: Oh come on, it will be fun! You're always wearing that anyway.
: Arrrr, alright.
: Excellent! Our first nominee is
Ashe B'nargin Dalmasca from Ivalice. According to this, she has traits that resemble a red mage.
: Ashe, like Lenna, is a princess. Her main mission is to avenge her and regain her kingdom.
: She is absolutely fearless and nothing will stop her from completing her goals which is why she is an excellent candidate.
: Next is
General Beatrix from Gaia IX. We don't have a paladin job... this will have to do.
: She is extraordinarily loyal, brave, noble, and strong. Her skills in battle is well known throughout the land as she is known as the "best swordsman in the continent", "the cold-blooded woman who silences even the crying infant", and "Beatrix who felled 100 men".
: Beatrix, unfortunately, is never a permanent party member in Final Fantasy IX but her traits are what make her shine above the rest.
:
Celes Chere from the World of Balance/Ruin. How does she wear such heavy armor all the time?
: Takes a strong woman to do so. Celes is a powerful and proud woman. She is a genetically enhanced Magitek Knight so she is also able to cast spells.
: She and Beatrix share similar qualities. Both are female generals, have some tough decisions to make in regards to where their loyalties lie, and are strong independent ladies. Makes me wonder who will come out on top.
:
Lightning from Cocoon. Don't let her pink hair fool you, it doesn't mirror her personality at all.
: Not one bit. Lightning's qualities resemble those of a knight. She is protective, independent, and determined to follow through on her missions.
: Lightning is one of the two female main protagonists in the main Final Fantasy line. She is also the only one to be the lead in three games, which is well deserved.
: The lovely summoner without a horn
Rydia from World IV.
: In my opinion, Rydia is one of the ladies who we see grow the most. She places her trust in the hands of men she witnessed destroy her home town, overcomes her fear of fire, literally ages about 10 years, and told Edward to stop being a sissy.
: Wise and beautiful, Rydia is an impressive young lady.
: Another green haired lady...
Terra Branford from World of Balance/Ruin
: Although FFVI wasn't meant to have a main character, the use of her as an icon and necessity to the plot has made her the first female main protagonist in the series.
: Terra starts out without having and recollection of her origin which often leaves her confused of how to handle situations and emotions. Her drive to continue moving forward is what molded her into the assertive powerhouse that she is.
: The lovely
Tifa Lockhart from Gaia VII
: Although she is widely known for her assets, Tifa will likely pound your face into a cement if you even think of trying something!
: Faris, that is not lady-like! Tifa has a very maternal and empathetic demeanor with deceptive physical strength. Her loyalty and determination to avenge her home town, friends, and family makes Tifa the incredible woman that she is.
: Arr, I've just about had enough o' dress up! Our last nominee is lass
Yuna from Spira
: ...Yuna is a sweet, loyal and honest lady. She is determined to follow in her father's footsteps and sacrifice herself to save the world from Sin.
: Aye, aye. She's a fine brave beauty who be well deservin' o' this award. Now if ye don't mind, I'm goin' aft t' me ship and I never be lettin' you pick me outfit again. Aarrrr
: *sigh* And the winner is...
Poor Garnet. I will give it back to her!
