{{quote|Voiced by: [[Koichi Yamadera]] (Japanese), [[Liam O'Brien]] (English)}}—Fighting Style: '''Tactical Striker'''
A knight clad in [[Instant Awesome, Just Add Dragons|draconic armor]], with [[Blade on a Stick|lance]] in hand. Though not one to [[The Stoic|display emotion]], he is [[The Fettered|compassionate and possesses a strong sense of justice]].
Line 25 ⟶ 23:
=== General Tropes ===
* [[Animal Motifs]]: [[Instant Awesome, Just Add Dragons|Dragons]].
* [[Badass]]: Before Jecht, there was Kain Highwind.
** [[Badass Arm-Fold]]: For his [[Victory Pose]], after planting his spear into the ground.
** [[Badass Baritone]]: You'd better believe it.
Line 44 ⟶ 42:
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: The new heroes sacrificed themselves to seal the manikins away in the void in a [[Bolivian Army Ending]].
** Kain's invoking of this trope gets extra points above the rest of the
* [[I Did What I Had to Do]]
* [[The Lancer]]: Mostly to Lightning, and is also the [[Sixth Ranger]] to the [[Five-Man Band]] in ''Dissidia 012''.
Line 57 ⟶ 55:
** [[Sixth Ranger Traitor]]: Seemingly
* [[The Southpaw]]: Kain's a lefty.
* [[Victory Pose]]: [[Mythology Gag|Assumes his]] iconic [http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/File:Kain.jpg trademark] [http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/File:Ff4_logo.png pose] at the end of his EX
* {{spoiler|[[Welcome Back, Traitor]]}}
** {{spoiler|[[The Atoner]]: After being [[What the Hell, Hero?|called out by Lightning]] on his plan (see below), Kain's actions for the remainder of the story are pretty much a retread of his ordeals in ''IV''. Also, it's hinted that Kain is fearful of Cecil regaining his memories of Kain from their world due to said ordeals.}}
Line 63 ⟶ 61:
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Lightning calls him out for taking it upon himself to {{spoiler|personally kill the other Warriors of Cosmos in order to save them from being [[Killed Off for Real]] by the [[Mooks|manikins]].}}
* [[What You Are in the Dark]]: In the Epilogue chapter, the entirety of the storyline applied to Kain after {{spoiler|he confronts Exdeath and Golbez}} functions as an extended one of these. {{spoiler|Kain had, then, a myriad of opportunities to escape [[Final Death]] at the hands of the manikins, and could have lived to fight another day. No one would have known, if he had chosen to take them.}} Yet, he ''didn't''. {{spoiler|Kain drags himself through apparent hell and high water to get to the [[Last Stand]], despite it all.}} Considering both the morally dubious nature of his role in the storyline and his reputation in the fandom as a backstabbing traitor in his original game, it's a nice way to establish that no, Kain really is a good guy.
* [[The Worf Effect]]: Subjects other characters to
=== Design and Costume Tropes ===
Line 106 ⟶ 104:
* [[Impaled with Extreme Prejudice]]: His EX Burst is most notable in this regard, but a lot of Kain's attacks are, with the frills stripped off, various ways to put his spear through his opponent's body as fast and as far as he can.
* [[In a Single Bound]]/[[Jump Physics]]: His specialty.
* [[Javelin Thrower]]: Gungnir. Doubles as a dual [[Mythology Gag]]
* [[Life Drain]]: Lancet.
* [[Mythology Gag]]: Two of his attacks, Spiral Blow and Sky Grinder, are his [[Combination Attack|Band attacks]] from ''The After Years'' performed with {{spoiler|Golbez}} and Cecil, respectively.
Line 115 ⟶ 113:
=== [[Final Fantasy V|Gilgamesh]] ===
{{quote|''"After the [[Walking the Earth|endless wandering]] ... he dreams of meeting his [[Worthy Opponent|rival]] once again."'' -- [[Non-Human Sidekick|Enkidu Feather]]}}

{{quote|Voiced By: [[Kazuya Nakai]] (Japanese), [[Keith Szarabajka]] (English)}}—Fighting Style: '''Frenzied Swordsman'''
Yet another [[Ensemble Darkhorse]] makes it into ''Duodecim''. This time, it's the legendary Gilgamesh from ''[[Final Fantasy V]]'', armed with his wide assortment of weapons and the blazing flame of his winning spirit. {{spoiler|Contrary to popular belief, Gilgamesh neither fights for Cosmos nor Chaos. Sometime after his banishment by [[You Have Failed Me|Exdeath]], he wanders into World B from the Rift.}}
Line 145 ⟶ 141:
* [[Unknown Rival]]: He has dedicated himself to escaping the Rift so that he can challenge Bartz to a rematch. Bartz's reaction? "Who are you?". Justified in that, for the most part, few people in ''Dissidia'' retain memories of their world, so Bartz really CAN'T remember him.
* [[Walking the Earth]] [[Multiverse]]: Why he was expected to appear in a crossover with several other ''[[Final Fantasy]]'' characters.
** So far, he's previously met up with [[Final Fantasy IV|Cecil]], [[Final Fantasy VI|Terra]], [[Final Fantasy VIII|Squall]], [[Final Fantasy IX|Zidane]], [[Final Fantasy XII|Vaan]], and [[Final Fantasy I|the Warrior of Light]]
*** Lampshaded in a cutscene where Vaan, Zidane, and Squall (the ones who have met him outside remakes) encounter him but because of purifications do not remember who he is.
* [[We Meet Again]]: Too bad no one seems to remember him.
Line 196 ⟶ 192:
* [[Spin Attack]]: Whirlwind Slash and Hurricane
* [[Spirited Competitor]]: It's his trademark, and this time is no different, with a few of his victory/defeat quotes centering on the concept of looking for a [[Worthy Opponent]]. And of course he's always trying to find [[The Rival|Bartz]].
* [[Stout Strength]]: Pretty much the only character that subscribes to this
