Barely anyone in FFVI could be considered normal. Terra's story is the most obvious example. Cyan had his family and home needlessly destroyed. Shadow kills people for money. Moogles aren't real, and most can't even talk the way Mog does. None of this is what we call "normal", and it's just what jumps to mind right away. Anyway, suprisingly, I find myself agreeing with My_car_is_faster_than_you on most of those counts.
