Playable characters


Cecil Harvey


Orphaned at a young age, , the protagonist of the game, is taken in by the King of Baron and raised to become a Dark Knight. Although Cecil is reluctant to master the Dark Sword he excels as a Dark Knight and is eventually promoted to the command of Baron's airship fleet, the "Red Wings". When the King orders Cecil to rob the magical town of Mysidia of its Water Crystal, Cecil begins to question the king's morality. After bombing the village of Mist under the King's orders, Cecil rebels against him and forms an alliance of warriors to oppose Baron. During the quest he washes ashore near Mysidia and becomes a paladin by climbing nearby Mount Ordeals. Cecil then reaches Baron and learns that Cagnazzo had killed and impersonated the king. With his companions Cecil is able to defeat Cagnazzo but the evil Golbez continues to hunt for the crystals and Cecil must continue his quest. Cecil ultimately learns that he is the son of a Lunarian, KluYa, and that Golbez is his brother. Although Cecil initially cannot accept this he later forgives Golbez and acknowledges him as his brother just before Golbez leaves forever. Cecil eventually marries Rosa and becomes King of Baron.
Kain Highwind


Childhood friend to both Cecil and Rosa, 'Kain Highwind' is the leader of the Dragon Knights of Baron. In the Japanese versions of the game, he is called . He claims that being a dragoon makes him feel closer to his father, who died when Kain was very young. Although best friends with Cecil, Kain is in love with Rosa and must deal with his jealousy throughout the story. Though Kain, like Cecil, notices the King of Baron's unusually harsh behavior, instead of joining Cecil's rebellion he strangely aligns himself with the evil King and Golbez. Kain becomes the right-hand-man of Golbez — the mysterious sorcerer who takes Cecil's place as captain of the Red Wings. It is later revealed that Kain had been under the mental control of Golbez all along. Kain breaks free of Golbez's mind control after Tellah casts Meteor, but is seized again after Cecil claims the last Dark Crystal. When Zemus's mind control of Golbez breaks, Kain is finally released and helps Cecil and Rosa destroy Zemus and Zeromus. After the final battle Kain is seized with remorse for his actions and decides that he must test himself at Mt. Ordeals before he can rejoin his friends. Due to this Kain decides not to attend Cecil and Rosa's wedding.
Rosa Farrell


is the female protagonist, a white mage in love with Cecil (though too afraid to admit), and archer of Baron. Experienced in healing magic, Rosa is often busy attending to Baronian soldiers who have been wounded in battle. By training as a White Mage and fighting alongside Cecil, Rosa is following in the footsteps of her mother, another White Mage, who fought beside Rosa's father, another Dark Knight. When Rosa learns that Cecil was sent to Mist with a bomb ring she immediately leaves Baron in search of him and catches the deadly desert fever in the process. Cecil cures her with the Sand Ruby, and she joins his party. During the battle of Fabul, she attempts to save Cecil from Kain, but Golbez kidnaps her and demands the Earth Crystal for her safe return. Cecil brings the crystal but when the party meets Golbez a fight erupts, started by the hot-headed Tellah. Tellah wounds Golbez with Meteor but dies in the process and the party is left at the mercy of the evil sorcerer. Golbez is about to slay Cecil but inexplicably stays his hand, perhaps sensing their kinship. After Golbez leaves, Cecil saves Rosa in the nick of time, and she helps them defeat the Lord of Wind, Barbariccia. Immediately after this, Rosa uses her magic to teleport them out of the unstable tower and she stays in the party for the rest of the game. Eventually she marries Cecil and becomes the Queen of Baron.
Rydia


Due to her innocence and pure heart, , is one of the most powerful summoners in the entire village of Mist. When Cecil and Kain travel through the Mist Cave to reach Rydia's village, they kill the Mist Dragon that was summoned to protect the path. Because monsters are linked to their Summoners, Cecil and Kain accidentally kill Rydia's mother in the process. On top of this, they set the entire village ablaze with the Bomb Ring, which automatically erupts the moment they enter Mist. Rydia becomes enraged and attacks them, summoning Titan who causes an earthquake that separates Cecil and Kain. Cecil takes the unconscious Rydia to Kaipo; when she regains her senses, she initially cannot forgive him but agrees to join him after he defeats some soldiers who want to kill her. Rydia is swallowed by Leviathan and is taken to the Land of Summons. Due to the different flow of time, she physically matures during her stay. Having mastered summoning at the expense of white magic, she saves Cecil from Golbez's Shadow Dragon in the Dwarven Castle's Crystal room and rejoins the party. She returns to the Land of Summons in the end, and it is apparent that Edge is infatuated with her.
Tellah


'Tellah', known in the Japanese versions of the game as , was once the wisest Sage in Mysidia and master of all spells. After a drastic accident while casting a spell, Tellah retired to Kaipo and refrained from using magic, eventually forgetting most of his spells. After the death of his wife, Tellah became very over-protective of his only daughter Anna, and becomes furious when learning of her engagement to the "spoony bard" Edward of Damcyan. He accompanies Cecil to Damcyan to find Edward, and initially blames and scorns Edward. However, after several events, such as the fact that Anna sacrificed herself for Edward, and when Edward plays his Twin Harp to weaken the Dark Elf, Tellah's perception of Edward improves. Tellah also seeks vengeance on Golbez for killing Anna, and acquires the spell Meteor for this end. He uses Meteor at the cost of his own life, weakening Golbez, and freeing Kain. He expresses regret over being consumed by vengeance in the last moments of his life. Mysidian mages idolize Tellah, often working all their lives to obtain the wisdom he once had.
Edward Chris von Muir


'Edward Chris von Muir', known in the Japanese versions of the game as [1] is the prince of Damcyan, soon to become the seventh king of the region. Edward grew up very mild-mannered in his royal family. Though expected to be an expert in business, Edward shows much more interest in music and became a bard. When Golbez's Red Wings attack Damcyan and kill Edward's beloved Anna, Edward joins Cecil in his opposition against King Baron and Golbez. Edward falls overboard when Leviathan attacks Cecil's ship to Baron, and is tended to in Troia. From his room, he plays the Twin Harp, sending a melody to the Dark Elf, weakening it and dispelling the magnetic field that rendered metallic weapons useless, enabling Cecil to defeat the Dark Elf. He joins the airship fleet against the Giant of Babel, and helps to rebuild Damcyan after Zeromus's defeat.
Yang Fang Leiden


The composed leader of the monks of Fabul, is an undisputed expert in martial arts. Despite his superiority over the other Fabul monks, Yang remains dignified and does not bask in his glory. When training on Mt. Hobs, he and his fellow monks were attacked by a group of monsters. Yang emerged as the only survivor, but receives help from Cecil and Edward when protecting Fabul from Golbez's attack. He finds his way to Baron after Leviathan attacks the ship that he chartered, and attacks Cecil before regaining his memories. In the Tower of Babel's cannon room, he sacrifices himself to prevent the cannon from destroying the dwarven tanks, but resurfaces in the Sylvan cave, unconscious. He wakes up when the player strikes him with a frying pan, but cannot assist the player. He, however, gets in a tank in order to stop the Giant of Babel from destroying the world. Afterwards, he becomes king of Fabul.
Palom and Porom



and are fraternal twins from the village of mages — Mysidia. Palom, the boy, is a rowdy, immature, and rude Black Mage, while Porom, the girl, is sweet, polite, and is studying white magic. Though the twins are only five years old, they are experts in their respective magic skills and are sent by the Elder of Mysidia to help Cecil on his journey to the top of Mt. Ordeals. They were as much spies as companions, which Palom almost admits as the Elder did not trust Cecil yet. They turn themselves to stone to save Cecil and his friends from being crushed in Cagnazzo's trap, which, as it was self-inflicted, cannot be undone by healing magic. The Elder, however, ends their curse, and after they assist the efforts against the Giant of Babel, the resume their studies in Mysidia, with Porom working to rein in Palom.
Cid Pollendina


The chief engineer of Baron, is very close to Cecil, Kain, and Rosa. Since the loss of his wife, Cid has especially treated Cecil like his own son. Having discovered the ancient skill of levitation, Cid is credited with inventing the airship. After discovering that Cecil has been relieved of his position in Baron's fleet, the furious Cid is locked away in the dungeon by King Baron (actually the Lord of Water, Cagnazzo). Later, however, he gives Cecil access to his special airship, the ''Enterprise''. When the Enterprise crashes in the Underworld, Cid takes it back to the surface to outfit it with Mythril, which enables it to fly over magma. Cid rescues Cecil from the collapsing bridge to the Tower of Babel, and attempts to escape a pursuing Red Wings airship. He ultimately jumps off the ship at the crater and detonates explosives to seal the Underworld; this is thought to have killed him, but he returns to add Mythril and a drill to the newly acquired Falcon, and deploys the Red Wings against the Giant of Babel.
Edward "Edge" Geraldine


is the royal prince of Eblan and the only heir to the throne. Though often cocky, impulsive and overconfident, Edge is a righteous young man who is not easily manipulated or led astray from his morals. Cecil first meets Edge in Cave Eblan, after he has been defeated in battle by the Lord of Fire, Rubicante. Because Cecil and the rest are after Rubicante as well, Edge — who becomes completely taken with Rydia — joins the party and leads them into the Tower of Babel through a secret back entrance. He is made to watch helplessly as his parents, whom Lugae has abducted and turned into demons, sacrifice themselves rather than be forced to kill him; his fury over this loss, combined with the belief that Rubicante is responsible (although Rubicante denies responsibility and condemns Lugae for the atrocity) leads him to learn his two most powerful techniques, his rage unlocking his skills just prior to the fight with the Lord of Fire himself. He stays with the party continuously after he joins and ultimately helps defeat Zeromus, taking the throne of Eblan despite lingering concerns that he does not take the position seriously enough.
FuSoYa


'FuSoYa', known in the Japanese versions of the game as , is a resident of the moon. It is believed that he and the other Lunarians come originally from the planet that once lay between Mars and Jupiter which was destroyed and became the asteroid belt, with the remaining survivors being held in hibernation or stasis. The wisest character of the game with access to each and every spell (including Meteor), FuSoYa watches over the Lunarians in their long sleep and knows the true origins of Cecil, Golbez, the Crystals, and real nature of the threat to the planet. Once FuSoYa explains Golbez's true intentions to Cecil, he joins the party to help save the world, returning to Earth just in time to fight the Giant of Babel. Inside the huge android, after the party destroys the CPU and the resurrected Elemental Lords, FuSoYa finally dispels Zemus' mind control on Golbez (who turns out to have been a puppet himself all along), and the pair go off together to fight Zemus at the core of the moon, leaving Cecil's party to follow in their wake. While FuSoYa and Golbez defeat Zemus' physical form easily with their magic just as Cecil's group arrives, the victory is short-lived as Zeromus, a being formed from Zemus' intense hatred, rises from the body, resists their magic, and proves immune to the powers of the crystal because of the darkness in Golbez's heart. Zeromus easily overpowers the entire group until the prayers of the world revive Cecil's party, allowing Cecil to use the Crystal to magnify his own holy power and render Zeromus vulnerable. After Zeromus is finally defeated, FuSoYa returns to his sleep with Golbez and the rest of the Lunarians.

Major villains


''Listed in alphabetical order''
Baigan


is a knight of Baron. Though the only two known kinds of Baron's knights are Dark Knights and Dragon Knights, Baigan's affiliation in Baron's military is never made clear, but it is implied that he is captain of the guard. He is, however, a good friend of Cecil — though, like Kain, he joined Golbez and the King in their army of evil. When the party sneaks into the seemingly vacant castle through the Watery Passage, he is the first apparently friendly face to greet them. However, the twins Palom and Porom smell "something fishy", and Baigan reveals his true self, telling the party that he was given the gift of his alternate form from Golbez. He can deflect magical attacks against his body with his arms, which regenerate if destroyed, and self-destruct once Baigan's body is destroyed.
Barbariccia


('Valvalis' in the original SNES release and PlayStation re-release) is the only female member of the Four Elemental Lords. The Lord (or Lady) of Wind, Barbariccia can transform herself into an almost indestructible tornado. Only Dragoons are able to break this tornado form of Barbariccia by jumping on her - ironic, as she appears to have an affinity for Kain. In the Japanese version of the game, she is shown unclothed, this was changed when the game was brought stateside. Though Cecil and the party first defeat Barbariccia in the Tower of Zot, they later fight her in the Giant of Babel, where it is somehow possible to damage her in her tornado. In both battles, Barbariccia is able to petrify the party and reduce them to near death with tornado spells. She also appears as an optional boss in Final Fantasy Dawn of Souls (GBA) on the final level of Hellfire Chasm.
Cagnazzo


One of the Four Lords of the Elements, ('Kainazzo' in the original SNES release) has power over water; he can defend himself by withdrawing into his shell and by raising a barrier of water, and attacks with tidal waves. Hired by Golbez and Zemus, Cagnazzo killed King Baron and impersonated him. It was in fact Cagnazzo that ordered Cecil to steal the Water Crystal from Mysidia and bomb the village of Mist, not the king. The initial battle with Cagnazzo is fought in the throne room of Baron. The heroes seem to defeat Cagnazzo, but it appears he still had the ability to cling to the world for a tiny bit longer. As the party exited the throne room, it became apparent that the small hallway between the throne room and the main area of the castle had been trapped by Cagnazzo. He locked the doors and began to force the walls shut. Palom and Porom turned themselves to stone to prevent the rest of the party from being killed. He later joins the other Lords in a final battle against Cecil and his friends in the Giant of Babel. Also appears in Dawn of Souls on the Fifth Level of Hellfire Chasm.
Dark Elf

The 'Dark Elf' is the thief who steals the Earth Crystal from the peaceful town of Troia. Cecil is given the task of retrieving the Crystal from the Elf, but is put at a disadvantage when the Dark Elf uses his powers to create magnetic fields in the cave. Edward, however, uses his magic Twinharp to weaken the fields by making the Dark Elf go mad, allowing Cecil to triumph over the Elf. He has the power to transform into a Dark Dragon. This magnetic field is likely the reason Golbez had Kain go after the crystal for him.
Dr. Lugae


'Dr. Lugae' is a mad scientist working for Rubicante. It is never stated whether or not he is under the mind control of Zemus and Golbez, or if he is helping them according to his own will, although the latter is implied, given his insubordination. He is the self-proclaimed "brains behind Golbez's operation" and turned Edge's parents — the King and Queen of Eblan — into monsters even though Rubicante supposedly never gave him permission to do so. His bodyguard and masterpiece is 'Barnabas', a Frankenstein-like monster. Should Barnabas become damaged enough to warrant the concern of Dr. Lugae, he will mount the monster as a last stand, combining their two powers, or if Lugae is defeated before the player destroys Barnabas, Barnbas will explode, damaging the party. He later seemingly transforms into a Cyborg-like creature with advanced weaponry, before being finally defeated.
Golbez


'Golbez', or in the original Japanese version, is the mysterious sorcerer who replaces Cecil as the captain of the Red Wings. Skilled in black magic and summon magic, the sorcerer is a powerful opponent who serves as the main antagonist for the majority of the game. Somehow affiliated with King Baron, Golbez has brainwashed Kain to assist him in their evil deeds. It is later revealed that Golbez is actually Cecil's brother and that he himself is also being controlled by Zemus. Golbez attempts to defeat Zemus with FuSoYa, but cannot defeat Zeromus, and gives Cecil the Crystal to render him vulnerable (the true nature of the Crystal is unknown; it may be one of the Elemental crystals or a ninth Crystal from the Lunarians, but it is never made clear). Golbez is unable to return to earth because of the crimes that Zemus committed through him, deciding to sleep with the Lunarians. Cecil bids him goodbye, calling him "brother."
Magus Sisters


The three 'Magus Sisters', 'Cindy', 'Mindy', and 'Sandy', (or 'Mag', 'Rag', and 'Dog' in the original Japanese version) work in conjugation with Golbez and Barbariccia in the Tower of Zot. Their only strategy is known as Delta Attack, in which Cindy attacks a party member, Sandy casts Reflect on Cindy, and Mindy bounces a spell off of Cindy and onto the party. These sisters also appear as one of the strongest summoned monsters in ''Final Fantasy X'', and their Overdrive is also called Delta Attack, although it is very different.
Rubicante


('Rubicant' in the original SNES release and PlayStation re-release) is the leader and strongest member of the Four Lords of the Elements. The ability to create and manipulate fire with his own hands makes him a worthy opponent, and his Cloak of Flames absorbs even Ice element attacks, unless it is open, revealing his legs. Working with Dr. Lugae to raise the Giant of Babel, he is the archenemy of Edge. Cecil and Edge later defeat Rubicante in the Tower of Babel and the Giant of Babel. Unlike the other Lords, he is very honorable and even heals Cecil's party before fighting them; however, this may be out of pride, so that he can defeat the greatest threat to Zemus's plans without any special advantages. He did not authorize Lugae to transform Edge's parents into monsters, and apologizes to Edge for the deed before they battle. Cecil must face him again within the Giant of Babel, fortunately his cloak is open more often this time around. Also appears in Dawn of Souls in the final level of Hellfire Chasm.
Scarmiglione


('Milon' in the original SNES release and PlayStation re-release) is the Elemental Lord of Earth who first meets Cecil on Mt. Ordeals when the Dark Knight is on his quest to become a Paladin. Though Cecil thinks that he has defeated Scarmiglione and his zombie minions, the Earth Lord soon transforms into a hunched, zombie-like beast, attacking the group from behind and using poison gas and brute strength. Even though Cecil and his allies believe that Scarmiglione had been destroyed as he fell off a bridge at the summit of Mt. Ordeals, he faces the Lord once again in the Giant of Babel. Both of his forms appear in Dawn of Souls on the fifth level of Hellfire Chasm.
Zemus


is the mastermind behind all the evil in ''Final Fantasy IV''; he apparently wishes for dominance over the planet (though whether he wishes for himself personally or the Lunarians as a race to dominate it is never made clear). With his mind control powers, he manipulates Golbez into doing his will on Earth. Golbez, in turn, repeatedly uses his own telepathic influence over Kain. FuSoYa reveals that Zemus is the only Lunarian who refused to go into stasis until the time when Lunarians and Earthlings could live in harmony. Even though Golbez and FuSoYa vanquish him, Zemus comes back to life as Zeromus, the monstrous embodiment of his hatred and evil. Zeromus has considerable prowess in magic; his moves include Big Bang, a powerful magic attack, and Black Hole, which has the power to nullify magical benefits, as well as variety of offensive magic. Stealing the Dark Matter item in the pre-battle stage will reduce the amount of damage his Big Bang attack does. A stronger version, Zeromus EG, in the Game Boy Advance version can be fought in the Lunar Ruins, at the last floor.
is the monstrous embodiment of Zemus' hatred and evil. He is the final villain in the video game. Zeromus is also an optional esper in Final Fantasy XII.

Other non-player characters


''Listed in alphabetical order''
Anna


Anna is the daughter of Tellah and is engaged to Prince Edward of Damcyan. After the death of Anna's mother, Tellah became very over-protective of Anna, in hopes of never losing her. When he learned of Anna's elopement with Edward, Tellah became very upset. In Baron's raid on Damcyan, Anna was killed by a rain of enemy arrows, using her body as a shield in order to try and save Edward's life. Edward and Anna meet again in the desert city of Kaipo, where he meets his fears. Though Tellah first took his anger out on Edward, he soon vowed to take Golbez's life no matter what.
Elder of Mysidia

The Elder of Mysidia is the trainer of Palom, Porom, and the other mages of the town. A friend of Tellah, the Elder orders Palom and Porom to spy and Cecil when he is learning to become a Paladin. After Baron's raid on Mysidia, the Elder was unsure if he could trust the Dark Knight. However, when Cecil becomes a paladin, he becomes an ally of Cecil. Later, he along with Palom and Porom direct the prayers of the world to Cecil before the final battle.
Fat Chocobo


Fat Chocobo (Big Chocobo in ''Final Fantasy II (US)'') is a helpful, intelligent chocobo who is much larger in size than the rest. He lives in the various Chocobo Forests across the world, as well as in the Dwarven Castle and the Lunar Whale airship. He helps Cecil and the party in a unique way. He does not provide transportation like regular chocobos, but instead, he will eat the party's unwanted items and regurgitate them at any time when they are needed. This provides extra inventory space for the party. He can be called using a Gysahl Green (Carrot in some versions of the game) in the Chocobo Forests and Dwarven Castle. He is always on-board the Lunar Whale, where the party does not need to summon him. Late in their quest, the party may acquire a Gysahl Whistle (Whistle in some versions of the game, which allows them to call Fat Chocobo from anywhere.
Fat Chocobo has appeared in other ''Final Fantasy'' titles. He first appeared in ''Final Fantasy III'', where he played the same role as in ''Final Fantasy IV''. In ''Final Fantasy VII'', he had a cameo role. When using the Choco/Mog summon materia, there is a one-in-six chance that the player will get a 'Fat Chocobo' that falls on the enemies, rather than Choco and Mog crashing into them. He played a role as the king or god of chocobos in ''Final Fantasy IX'', living in the secret Chocobo's Paradise and granting Choco (The chocobo that Zidane rides and helps) new abilities such as the power to walk over the ocean or mountains, or even the power of flight. He also plays ''Tetra Master'', the game's featured card game.
King Baron

As both Cecil and Kain were orphaned at very young ages, King Baron took them in and raised them as his own. While he wished for both to become Dark Knights, Kain wanted to train as a Dragoon, like his father. Baron is killed by Cagnazzo though his spirit remained trapped in a secret second throne room of Baron Castle. When the party gains access to this area, they are able to talk to the king, and possibly gain his powers to use in battle if they can prove their worth to him. Rydia can summon Odin in battle if they defeat the King.
King Giott


King Giott is the King of the Dwarves. Though Cid's Enterprise gets caught in the crossfire between the Red Wings and Giott's tanks, the dwarves soon befriend Cecil and the rest of the party. King Giott provides much of the insight on the Dark Crystals of the Underworld.
KluYa

KluYa is a Lunarian and the late father of Cecil and Golbez. KluYa is one of the very few Lunarians to show an extreme interest in humans. In fact, he even married one. By taking the Lunar Whale to Earth, KluYa introduced the concept of Devil's Road and the airship to Earthlings, even though Cid is often credited with inventing the ship.
Kokkol


Kokkol is the smith who forges Excalibur from Cecil's Sword of Legend and the Adamantite. If the player fights the Pink Puffs/Flan Princesses (1 in 64 chance encounter in a side room in the final dungeon unless the player uses a Siren), he or she can acquire a Pink Tail (1 in 64 encounters), which can be used to make Cecil's best armor.
Luca


Princess Luca is the daughter of King Giott. She is most notable for something that belongs to her: her dolls, which Golbez turns into Chucky-like monstrosities called calcobrenas that attack the party. At first Luca seems untrusting of Cecil (perhaps the doll incident has something to do with it), but like the other dwarves, she learns to accept them. Under the rule of Luca and her father, the Dwarves help assist the party in the battles in the Underworld.
Namingway


A Hummingway that has skills at naming things, Namingway appears throughout the game to give the player the option of renaming the characters. In ''Final Fantasy IX'', Namingway reappears as a key item card that allows the player to change the character's names and a Tetra Master card which can be used in the card game.

Cameo appearances


Cecil Harvey has a cameo appearance in ''Secret of Evermore'' as an armor salesman of the Gothica Era location Ebon Keep. The music track for the village is even titled "Cecil's Town". Cecil also appears as a man in ''Crystal Chronicles'', a Final Fantasy game for the Nintendo GameCube console. A reference to Edward Chris von Muir is made in ''Legend of Mana''; a bard named Gilbert (Edward's Japanese name) appears as a minor character in the game. Cid's artwork and menu portrait both show him with a red helmet and blue beard, but on his sprites (walking around and battle) the colors are reversed, with a blue helmet and red beard.
The Four Elemental Lords (四天王) — Barbariccia, Cagnazzo, Rubicante, and Scarmiglione (as well as Calcobrena, a minor boss in the form of a doll) take their names from characters in Dante's epic poem ''The Divine Comedy''. In this epic poem, these five characters reside in the eighth circle of Hell. The original Japanese names of Cindy, Mindy, and Sandy (Dog, Mag, Rag) originate from Kyuusaku Yomeno's novel ''Dogra Magra'' (ドグラ・マグラ). In the original English translation, the Four Elemental Lords were referred to as the Four Fiends of Elements. While a group of villains known as the Four Fiends are found in ''Final Fantasy'' and ''Final Fantasy IX'', they are not the same as those found in ''Final Fantasy IV''. The Four Elemental Lords (四天王) make a cameo as bosses in the extra dungeons in ''.
The Magus Sisters make an appearance as an Aeon in ''Final Fantasy X''. In the Game Boy Advance game ''Final Fantasy Tactics Advance'', a semi-cameo battle is present against a group of Lamias called Sandy, Cindy, and Mindy. In ''Final Fantasy Tactics Advance'' there is a Dragoon weapon called "Kain's Lance" that "once belonged to a legendary Dragoon", referring to Kain Highwind; a similar item can also be found in ''Final Fantasy IX''. The final boss, Zeromus, makes an appearance in ''Final Fantasy XII'' as an Esper. In ''FFXII'''s Zeromus's design is a combination of both the design used in-game and the design used for the Japanese ''FFIV'' Easy-Type version.
