Oh let see who can be consider the worst character. I can't just say one name and end it there. I mean there are plently of bad characters mixed with the classic characters who everyone loves to quote their dialog. Let me break it down by the following catalogies.

Worst Character in Battle : Edward, hands down is terrible. With the exception of the water hag fight where he only misses half the time...just a spoony bard who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. Oh well, at least he isn't Pokey bad.

Worst Last Boss : Ultmecia gets this award for not only talkings in Ks all the time, but also for having one very confusing plot twist attached to her. That and I couldn't beat her for some odd reason.

Worst Recurring Villain : Seifer might fit this catalog due to his total lameness, but Balgon (sp?) from Final Fantasy IIJ is just terrible. Even as a ghost he sucks.

Worst NPC : That stupid brat from Final Fantasy VI who always buys the cool stuff at the auction house.

Worst Party Member Story Wise : Umaro just win hands down for a being a slow snowman who you have to fight to earn, who only does a beserk attack the entire time.

And my most hated character is...Locke. Yeah, you just heard me say Locke from Final Fantasy VI. The reason is simple...whenever I used to play FFVI on the SNES, I would use the river raft trick that makes the character super strong for a long time in the game. But when I get to switch to Locke...he is still at the weakest level in the game, and even Relm (who I personally like) is even stronger fighter then him!
