    In a "conversation" (if you can call it that), she never lets anyone else talk, but just goes on and on with another lame-ass story that'll bore you into a coma.
    If you ever saw the way she acts, it would turn your blood cold. But God forbid anyone should try and criticize her, she'll gouge their eyes out! She makes me sick!!!! So sick, I can't even remember my own name. Have you guessed it? My name, that is?
    I have put 9 or 10 clues into this angry little tirade, but I think I should give you a little direction to help your guesses. Look at how my sister's actions affect others (me, you, other people), but don't take it too literally. What I mean is her actions will affect other people, though not me (the answer to the riddle) or you (literally, you, my fellow FFT fan), or even her friends (those who stand with her). And remember, the answer to the riddle is not her name, but mine, her "brother's". Good luck!

    I see a few things... Mimic Daravon comes to mind. Turn your blood cold seems to be like "blood suck" or something like that... Gouge their eyes out... Sounds like goblin issues to me.

    So I've got nothing!

    Unless Celia and Lede are sisters, I rarely see siblings that don't include brothers and sisters. It's not any of the propositions, I'm fairly sure. I don't quite see any character that fits the clues perfectly: I may have to do this by eliminiation.

    Brother/Sister Pairs
    Larg/Ruvelia
    Malak/Rafa
    Izlude/Meliadoul
    Dycedarg or Zalbag or Ramza/Alma
    Delita/Teta

    The brother sounds pretty impatient and adversarial with his younger sister, so I'll guess Malak this time, referring to Rafa. :twak:

    Brother and sister are used figuratively. There is no pair of sibling characters that fit the riddle. A hint: Look at the way the sister affects others. There are 8 ways that the sister causes harm to other people. The "brother/sister" relationship is the ninth clue. I'll clue you in on the tenth clue later. I think I've set you on the right path now.

    The sister part may refer to the fact that it's a Dancer skill, available only to female units.

    EDIT: If you're looking for the 'brother' spell to Nameless Dance, it would be the Bard's counterpart, Nameless Song.

    Did I get it Sherlock Holmes?

    If I did you can call me Moriarty.

    You be Sherlock, I'll be Moriarty. I always liked him bettah.

    You are pretty much right on with all of your answer, Mr. 57, this round is yours. But be warned, this is not the last you'll hear from me.
    I want to clarify just one little part where you went astray. The clue for the 'Confusion' effect was actually "...wondering where she is, what she's doing, when she'll show up" And the line you had attributed to it, "I can't even remember my name", was the tenth clue, alluding to the 'Nameless' Song.

    What u got, BG? Huh, what u got?

    Bah, I'd rather be Mycroft Holmes than Sherlock Holmes. He was the older brother with more deductive talent but less ambition.

    I can see you
    My helpless prey
    I'm a cut above
    But I cut below

    Geez, Mycroft, this is a toughie! I attribute its difficulty to its lack of locution. I'll give it a shot: The Lancer jumps up into the air, where he looks down at his prey, then drops down to the field below and delivers a chop. And in my opinion, they are a cut above the average fighter. I guess Lancer, but I think we'll need more clues eventually to slay this beast of a riddle.

    Not the Lancer or Jump, but good guess.

    Better than the last two.

    Let me know if you guy would like a hint.

    Maybe it's the Ahriman, with its Look of Fright attack which lowers brave by 10? It has a big eye to see with, and leaves its victim more helpless. It is a cut above the common Flotiball and "a cut below" may refer to the brave-lowering attack. You see with your eyes, but I can't think of anything offhand that includes "eye" or "my eyes" or "your eyes" in its name. Except maybe Eye Gouge and that doesn't really fit the riddle. Oh how you torture us, BG.

    I was seriously gonna say Ahriman but I figured I'd look stupid for guessing something so far off the right answer, so I didn't say it. "I can see you" line made me think of the big eye.
