Cecil's girlfriend and a [[White Magic|White Mage]] of Baron, who has vowed to stay by his side even if he doubts his own motives.

A young girl from the Mist Village, home to many a [[Summon Magic|summoner]]. She will be appearing in the [[Dissidia Final Fantasy]] [[Spin-Off]] [[Theatrhythm Final Fantasy]] as a playable sub-character.

 

 

* [[Absolute Cleavage]]: Not as much as some though.

Ninja prince of Eblan.

 

 

* [[All Love Is Unrequited]]: He has feelings for Rydia. She doesn't seem too interested.

A wise old sage who has mastered both the arts of White and Black Magic. He meets Cecil at the Underground Waterway north of Kaipo to help him find a cure for Rosa's desert fever.

 

 

* [[Badass Grandpa]]

* [[Grumpy Old Man]]

* [[Large Ham]]

* [[Lennon Specs]]

* [[Old Master]]: Tellah ''did'' know almost all the spells in existence, once. He's just forgotten most of them in his old age. He later gets his memory back.

The lovestruck Prince of Damcyan.

 

 

* [[Bishonen]]

A hot-blooded fighting monk from the kingdom of Fabul.

 

 

* [[Badass Mustache]]

Twin mages from the town of Mysidia. The impulsive Palom is a student of Black Magic, while his much calmer sister Porom is a student of White Magic.

 

 

* [[Badass Adorable]]

Cid is one of Cecil's closest friends, and a master engineer. While he has helped build the airships that make up the Baron Air Force, he hates seeing them being used for war.

 

 

* [[Badass Beard]]

An old Lunarian sage and {{spoiler|1=the brother of KluYa, Cecil and Golbez's father.}}

 

 

* [[Badass Beard]]

A dark sorcerer who is believed to have taken over the kingdom of Baron from within. He seeks out the four Elemental Crystals in an effort to rule the world. {{spoiler|... supposedly.}} He plays a pivotal role in the plot of the [[Dissidia Final Fantasy]] where he appears as the villain representing Final Fantasy IV.

 

 

* {{spoiler|[[The Atoner]]}}

A zombie warrior, and one of Golbez's four Elemental Archfiends. He is dispatched to Mt. Ordeals to prevent Cecil from completing his trial to become a Paladin.

 

 

* [[Elemental Embodiment]] of [[Dishing Out Dirt|Earth]]

The second of Golbez's Archfiends, encountered when the party returns to Baron Castle.

 

 

* [[Elemental Embodiment]] of [[Making a Splash|Water]]

Elemental Archfiend of the Air, and the only female member of the group. She first appears in the Tower of Zot, backed up by her [[Quirky Miniboss Squad]], the Magus Sisters.

 

 

* [[Cute Monster Girl]]: Technically speaking, yes.

The [[Four Is Death|fourth and most powerful]] of the Archfiends, sent by Golbez to attack the kingdom of Eblan. He wears a special cape [[Genre Savvy|to compensate for his natural weakness to water-based attacks]].

 

 

* [[Affably Evil]]

* [[As Long as There Is Evil]]: In [[New Game+]] for the DS remake, the Archfiends' malice lives on in the [[Bonus Boss|superboss]] [[Biological Mashup|Geryon]]. Averted in ''The After Years'', as the Archfiends [[Heel Face Turn|show a more benign side]] (when they break free of their [[Brainwashed and Crazy]] status due to [[Came Back Wrong|an against their will]] [[Back From the Dead|resurrection]] by the Crystals), [[Friendly Enemy|holding no ill-will towards their former enemies]] (going as far as to ''thank'' them), as well as expressing joy to see {{spoiler|Golbez again, honoring him with the same respect as when they were in his servitude}}. Seeing as it can be inferred that they are the physical representation of the world's elemental forces, it's likely that Zemus' influence perverted them and the group was really [[Good All Along]].

* [[Badass Cape]]

* [[Duel Boss]]: It's optional, but in ''The After Years'', you have the option to fight him using only Edge.

* [[Elemental Embodiment]] of [[Playing with Fire|Fire]]

* [[Spirit Advisor]]: In ''[[Final Fantasy IV: The After Years|The After Years]]''.
