Who likes Rubicant/Rubicante?

[Darth Cid]

I think Rubicant is one of the coolest FF villains of all time. He's a fire fiend, fire is so destructive, yet he is such a gentlemen. And he believes in fairplay, as shown by his trademark healing the party right before battle. He's pretty awesome imho.

[ImAFarmer]

Yeah! he saved me from running to the save spot to heal!

[Darth Cid]

"Poor technique, this is how it's done!"

[Zeromus_X]

Every time I get up the part where you fight him the first time, I always forget he's going to heal you and I hike back to the save point only to be reminded that he heals you for free. >_>

"Poor technique, this is how it's done!"

In the version that I've been playing since way back when, I think Mr. Rubicant says "Was it flame? I will show you how." which is stupid because he then proceeds to use Glare, not flame, proving that he actually has no idea how Edge does flame.

Anyway, I like Rubicant a lot. He's a gentlemanly guy, with honorable qualities that defy his title of "fiend". Like, instead of the four fiends of the elements, it should be the 3 fiends and the 1 pretty nice guy of the elements.

Plus Rubicant makes it clear that Lugae messed up Edge's parents on his own twisted will, and Rubicant is not pleased that Lugae did a thing like that. Even when you run into a second time, He's all smiles and red capes, healing you again. The other 3 fiends probably got kinda frustrated that Rubicant was always helping out the guys they were supposed to be killing.

I wonder how someone so decent could've sworn himself over to evil? Was he created by Golbez? If so, I think Golbez might want to rethink the developmental stages on a killing machine that heals the thing it ought to be killing.

If it makes you feel any better, in the Japanese version, they're called the Four Emperors.

[Darth Cid]

Yeah, that doesn't make sense, because Valvalis(idk how to spell her GBA name) is a girl, and they still call her an "Emperor"

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

Women can be rightly referred to as actors and not actresses, stewards and not stewardesses, and hosts instead of hostesses. I don't see why they couldn't be called emperors as well.

[Nasarian Altimeros]

It was a half decent character but I don't really understand why he has such a substantial following.

[abrojtm]

He was designed to be likeable, and therefore people like him.
I didn't particularly like him much more than I liked Cagnazzo or the others. (I didn't really like Scarmiglione though).

Barbariccia of Wind.

[Evastio]

I think he's awesome. He's one of the few villains that has a conscience and doesn't let greed/hate/pride/power control him.

3 Fiends and 1 Friend? I like Rubicant mostly because of his gentleman character, but he's also a well done character. He's the fire-elemental boss that has a lot of powerful attacks, he's quite challenging and he has that cool cloak that absorbs ice attacks. It was great when (SPOILER)he was angry at what Lugar did to Edge's parents, and how he was actually sorry about that. Hmm, I wonder how it would be if you could have both Golbez and Rubicant join the party.

[NINJA_Ryu]

Well, its honorable that he did that, and he is all about fair play.

Sure, he could beat you all when your at 3 hp after that grueling dungeon, but no.

He wants to test his own limits, and become a better fighter to boot ^ ^

[Crossblades]

He's an honorable villian. That's what I like about him
