May be justified due to how noticable the shadows could seem at times

 * Red Mage: As students of a Wizarding School they all can use offensive, healing and support magic (in varying levels of proficiency). They are even called this by Qator.

Lorica is the northern nation of Oriense, whose heraldic beast is Genbu, the Black Tortoise, and whose traditional color is green. What little is known about Lorica is that its people directly intake the powers of the Crystal to increase their strength, increasing their body size in turn, and most of its citizens serve as warriors.

Gilgamesh
"Voiced by: Kazuya Nakai (JP)"

A l'Cie of Genbu who has forgotten his Focus. May or may not be the usual Gilgamesh who roams dimensions (and games). -

 * Worthy Opponent: As he wanders without his focus.
