Top 20 Final Fantasy Characters

The adorable black mage of Final Fantasy IX, whose quest for his own identity is one of the major story threads of the game. He's absolutely adorable, and the ending to his story is tear-jerking. Probably the cutest character in all of Final Fantasy.

The main character of Final Fantasy VII, perhaps the greatest of the series. He is extremely apathetic to everything save only his work, and his clouded past is of major importance to the plot. His giant sword, the Buster Sword, is famous in video game circles.

The stoic lone wolf main protagonist of Final Fantasy VIII. He has one of the coolest, if bizarre, weapons in video game history, and his cynicism and introversion slowly fades away as he falls in love with Rinoa Heartilly.

The One-Winged Angel and the main antagonist of Final Fantasy VII. He is perhaps the single greatest villain in all of video game history. A man driven made by the truth of his origins, his strength and malice is beyond human reckoning. His extremely long sword and his equally long silver hair is iconic, and he even manages to kill one of the main characters before the end.

It's a ninja and a mercenary.

The best female protagonist in Final Fantasy. A beautiful young woman who is a summoner, one of the people whose duty it is to eliminate the giant being Sin. Her choice to sacrifice her own life for the good of others is touching, and her kindness knows no bounds. And yet, even with all this, she is able to stand on her own two feet.

Hello? This is the the ultimate Sorceress we are talking about. Do I need to give an explanation? Fine: Ultimecia is an immensely powerful and highly developed Sorceress with her personal power focusing on time and space manipulation. This power is shown in the final battle, where she will often cast spells that involve bending space, such as Bio, Quake, and Meteor or absorb fallen party members into time in the battle against her. Furthermore, she has a devastating magical attack that is similar to Heartless Angel called Hell's Judgement. With Hell's Judgement, Ultimecia can reduce the entire party's health to one point, and she employs it very often in the final battle. Ultimecia also has the ability to manifest and give life to subconscious thoughts and inanimate objects. This includes giving life to Guardian Forces and powerful monsters that did not exist before she created them. For example, Ultimecia manifested and extracted Griever from Squall's subconscious mind. She found Griever to be Squall's conception of the most powerful force that could exist and brought him to life for battle against Squall himself. Moreover, there is her ability to cast Time Compression, which she used to begin absorbing all existence. She additionally has the ability to invade, possess and control an individual's mind; allowing her to steal thoughts, knowledge and magic. She is also able to use this ability on herself. For example, after she transforms into her ultimate form, Ultimecia reaches into her own mind, and manifests what in her mind is the ultimate Black Magic spell, Apocalypse. Her ability to manipulate objects and matter has also led to some interesting Junction forms.
