Tidus' Mother

[BG-57]

I have a couple of questions about Tidus' mother.

1) What's her name? Is it ever mentioned anywhere?

2) What does she look like? I don't have a convenient save near a scene with her in it.

I don't think she had a name. As for her appearance, I don't think it was anything special. The face of any regular NPC. Of course, I don't remember, but it may have been similiar to Seymour's mother's face.

I dont remember them ever stating her name, but here she is.

Never mention her name in the game. She's basically there to call back how much Tidus hates his father Jecht. Plus learning Jecht shot if you can re-call.

She shows up int he farplane, doesn't she?

Yes. Sadly, I have no screenshots.

Tidus' mother has no name... same with Seymour and Yuna. Though Yuna's mother never appears in the game. Cloud's mother shows her face in FFVII, yet is similarly anonymous, and even Yang's wife never gets identified... what is it with these anonymous maternal figures?

[TheAbominatrix]

Women are meant to be seen and not named! *misogyny*

Thanks TheAbominatrix.

The lack of living mothers is even worse in Tactics.

My theory is that mothers provide a stabilizing influence over their children's lives. So they are often eliminated by the scriptwriters so their children can become globetrotting vagabond orphans. And in most RPGs the party has to do a lot of wandering.

EDIT:

Big D, Yuna's mother does appear in one scene, standing next to Braska in the Farplane when Yuna first visits. Although I agree with your point.

What, you mean the fact that Ramza and Alma's mother is only mention to talk about how they are Zalbag and Dycedarg's half siblings? How the father dies at the very beginning? (Though he had a name and is mentioned many times) How Delita and Teta's parents are dead? Algus' parents have no name either... Honestly, the only parent in the game who is actually shown often and has a name is Orlandu, and he only adopted Olan.
