=== General Tropes ===
* [[Adaptational Badass]]: To more or less the same degree as his rival, Garland. From [[AFGNCAAPFeatureless Protagonist]] to a [[Badass]] [[The Cape (trope)|Cape]] and [[Determinator]]? That's a level up.
* {{spoiler|[[Artificial Human]]}}: ''Dissidia 012 Duodecim'' reveals he's {{spoiler|a Manikin created by Cid using Cid's memories, but unlike the Mooks fought in the game, he's a "perfect" Manikin, able to have a sense of self and retain memories.}}
* [[Call Back]]: {{spoiler|The final scene of ''012'' shows him about to awaken from his hibernation in Order's Sanctuary, which was the first scene of ''013''.}}
Line 121:
 
== Firion ==
[[File:Dissidia Firion 5283.jpg|frame| "Believe in the future--And persist in the present. That's what I'll do!"]]
 
{{quote|''"The [[Heroic Spirit|unwavering will]] of the youth will realize his dream. Eventually..."'' -- The Youth's Dream.}}
Line 157:
Firion uses eight types of weapons (if you include shields and bare-handed fighting), one for each fighting style in ''Final Fantasy II'' and each representing a party member.
 
* [[Aborted Arc]]: Something of a meta example. Seeing as the quest to obtain [[Last-Disc Magic|Ultima]] was touted as a crucial key to halting the advance of the Palamecian Empire (to the point that {{spoiler|[[White Mage|Minwu]] [[Cast Fromfrom Hit Points|sacrificed his own life]] to break its seal}}), it's a bit odd that Firion doesn't have access to it in his (already impressive) arsenal.
* [[All Your Powers Combined]]: Firion's allies in his original game each specialized in one of the weapons he uses in ''Dissidia''—Leila used daggers, Maria used a bow, Guy used an axe, etc.
** His entire moveset is one big [[Mythology Gag]]. For example, his rope knives are electrified. Leila, who specialized in knives, joined the party with knowledge of the Thunder spell.
Line 169:
** [[Charles Atlas Superpower]]: Said punch is not only significantly stronger than his other two follow-ups which use his weapons, but at a base power of 45 it's stronger than a ''full'' combo from ''Jecht''.
* [[Cool Sword]]: The Blood Sword, Firion's own weapon type.
** [[Bow and Sword Inin Accord]]: The end of Lance Combo.
** [[Iaijutsu Practitioner]]: With Swordslash.
* [[Super Mode|EX Mode]]: '''[[Infinity+1 Sword|Blood Weapon Equipped!]]'''
Line 270:
** Spellbook is the EX Burst he uses in Sage mode. The player is presented with a ''Final Fantasy''-style [[Retraux|command window]]; his task is to locate and cast the '''Holy''' spell from Onion Knight's Magic command. If Holy is chosen, Onion Knight will attack the enemy with [[Holy Hand Grenade|a blast of sacred light]] before dropping a '''[[Colony Drop|Meteor]]''' spell on them.
{{quote|"The best is yet to come! Burn it up!"}}
** Ninjutsu is the EX Burst he uses in Ninja mode. The player is presented with a ''Final Fantasy''-style [[Retraux|command window]]; his task is to locate and choose a '''Shuriken''{{'}} from Onion Knight's Throw command. If Shuriken is chosen, Onion Knight will hit the enemy with [[Flechette Storm|several dozen shuriken]] before performing '''[[Back Stab|Back Attack!]]''', running the enemy through (and appearing in a pose identical to the one on ''Final Fantasy III''{{'}}s logo).
{{quote|"The best is yet to come! Here I come!"}}
* [[Fragile Speedster]]: Only Feral Chaos is ''narrowly'' faster than him normally, and it takes EX Mode for Prishe and Tidus to outspeed him. Unfortunately, Onion Knight tends to get [[Punched Across the Room|sent flying into walls]] a whole lot since his attacks are predictable and leave him very vulnerable if he misses.
Line 498:
 
== Terra Branford ==
[[File:Dissidia Terra 2844.jpg|frame| "I've found a future that I want to protect. No matter how strong my powers become, I will never lose sight of my dream!"]]
 
{{quote|''"Even [[What Measure Is a Non-Human?|those who are not human]] are human if they possess [[The Power of Love|the ability to love others]]."'' -- Veiled Magic.}}
Line 608:
* [[Informed Attribute]]: Kefka stated that she loved to cause carnage and destruction when confronting her about why she doesn't want to fight (before Vaan interfered when Kefka tortured her), but her prior appearances did not have her feeling any kind of apparent emotion when fighting, much less joy (she sounded robotic, if anything). Of course, seeing how this is ''[[Lack of Empathy|Kefka]]'' we're talking about, its likely this wasn't true to begin with.
* [[Mama Bear]]: While you have to look for it in the original storyline, the 12th cycle really drives it home: {{spoiler|Vaan tells her to stay hidden and leaves, she sees a group of manikins heading for Cosmos, who she thinks is unprotected. She hurls herself into the fight without even a second thought.}}
* [[Mind Control Eyes]]: [http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/File:Terra_pleading.jpg Sports them]{{Dead link}}.
* [[You Shall Not Pass]]: {{spoiler|Fights to the end of her strength against some manikins that were after Cosmos.}}
 
 
== Cloud Strife ==
[[File:Cloud Dissidia Artwork 4307.jpg|frame| "What I want most-- I'll find myself."]]
 
{{quote|''"There are no lies, [[Selective Obliviousness|what I believe, is the only truth]]."'' -- [[Mysterious Past|True Past]].}}
Line 619:
{{quote|Voiced by: [[Takahiro Sakurai]] (Japanese), Steve Burton (English)}}—Fighting Style: '''Buster Basher'''
 
The famous protagonist from ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'', a former member of [[Super Soldier|SOLDIER]] of [[What Beautiful Eyes!|glowing eyes]] who wields [[BFSBlade of Fearsome Size|a sword as large as he is]]. While his comrades see him as cool headed and aloof, he actually questions himself a lot, yet is more concerned about his allies than what he seems.
 
=== General Tropes ===
Line 632:
* [[Blown Across the Room]]: Most of Cloud's attacks can inflict Wall Rush, and knock the opponent far enough that they ''will''.
* [[Cool Sword]]: The Buster Sword normally, the [[Infinity+1 Sword|Ultima Weapon]] in EX Mode, or, with his alternative costume, the Fusion Swords and their completed assembly version.
** [[BFSBlade of Fearsome Size]]: Practically the [[Trope Pantheons/Weapons|champion]] of it.
** [[Bifurcated Weapon]]: The Fusion Swords are technically six blades, although this doesn't really have any effect on gameplay.
** [[Named Weapons]]
Line 698:
 
== Squall Leonhart ==
[[File:Dissidia Squall 8769.jpg|frame| "I only came to fulfill my promise. It's because of them that I can't allow myself to stop. I know that I'm not alone."]]
 
{{quote|''"[[Hidden Heart of Gold|Of course I care]] what others think! I could love others if I was [[Be Yourself|true to myself]]."'' -- [[Bullet Index|Unshelled Bullet]].}}
Line 737:
* [[Boring but Practical]]: Aside from his spell attacks, which aren't really his intended niche, he only has two melee Bravery attacks for each air and ground. However, they're so effective they're all he needs.
* [[Cool Sword]]: His Gunblade, be it Revolver or [[Infinity+1 Sword|Lionheart]]. And they cover...
** [[BFSBlade of Fearsome Size]]: Revolver doesn't quite cut it, but Lionheart sure does.
** [[Blade Spam]]: Most of Squall's attacks work this way. He isn't called "Relentless" for nothing. This is actually lampshaded by the name of his [[Limit Break]]: if [[Wikipedia|The Other Wiki]] is correct, "Renzokuken" roughly translates to "Continual Sword" or "Serial Sword".
** [[Elegant Weapon for a More Civilized Age]]
Line 785:
 
* [[Big Brother Mentor]]: For Bartz, who's ''older'' than him!
* [[CannotCan't StandLive with Them, CannotCan't Live Without Them]]: Seems to deal with a bit of this.
* [[Defrosting Ice King]]: One could argue that he only gives [[Jerkass Facade|the illusion of this]], and is pretty defrosted on the inside. A lot of characters think he's pretty chilly, though.
{{quote|'''Tidus:''' "What's on your mind? Spill it!"
Line 797:
{{quote|'''Squall:''' "Then I suppose your misfortune was in being my enemy."}}
* [[I Work Alone]]: And he actually has some valid reasons for it, too.
* [[The Power of Trust]]: Although he'd rather fight alone, he believes in his allies and that they are still fighting together even if separated.
* [[The Promise]]: Mentions his iconic promise to [[Final Fantasy VIII|Rinoa]] that he would meet with her in the flower field.
* [[Shut UP, Hannibal]]
Line 827:
 
== Zidane Tribal ==
[[File:Dissidia Zidane 2932.jpg|frame| "Do you need a reason to help someone?"]]
 
{{quote|''"The ability to accept [[Because Destiny Says So|fate]] and shoulder that burden alone [[Magnetic Hero|attracts others]]"'' -- Theater Ticket.}}
Line 857:
** {{spoiler|Said while extending a helping hand to ''Kuja''.}}
* [[Petting Zoo People]]: Most notably in Trance, he looks like a pink monkey man.
* [[Pint-Sized Powerhouse]]: He tackles Garland off his feet, when Garland is about three times his size, wearing a full suit of armor, and carrying his [[BFSBlade of Fearsome Size]].
* [[This Cannot Be!]]: A rare ''heroic'' version of the trope—when defeated, during the final blow he says "What? This can't be...!".
* [[Too Slow]]: His [[Most Annoying Sound|dodge quote]].
Line 954:
=== Gameplay and [[Combat Tropes]] ===
* [[Cool Sword]]: Brotherhood to [[Infinity+1 Sword|Caladbolg]].
** [[BFSBlade of Fearsome Size]]
** [[Hooks and Crooks]]: Brotherhood has a notable hook on the end of the blade.
** [[It Was a Gift]]
Line 1,133:
* [[The Mentor]]: Seems to be something like this for Prishe. Although their relationship isn't exactly ideal at times.
