History Characters / FinalfantasyXII

"Indeed. What claim does Gerun have on history's reins…seated on throne immortal, rent from time?"

* CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming: "They are fulfilled beyond your knowing. The Cryst is sundered, Age of Stones, complete. From the Undying ones the world is freed. You shall not tread this path alone. Together we go, come..."

* ClearMyName

* IKnowKungFu

* [[spoiler:HeroicSacrifice]]: [[spoiler:Subverted at the last second and called a fool for his efforts]]; his speech beforehand is a CrowningMomentOfAwesome.
--->"This is Judge Magister Zargabaath, captain of the ''[[AirborneAircraftCarrier Alexander]]'', flagship of the 12th Dalmascan Fleet of the Archadian army. I address all ships in Rabanastre’s airspace. The ''[[EvilTowerOfOminousness Bahamut]]'' [[ColonyDrop must not be allowed to fall on the city of Rabanastre]]! [[RammingAlwaysWorks We are preparing to ram her]]! Do not interfere!\\
Should [[OminousFloatingCastle she]] fall, the [[DeflectorShields Paling]] will not hold, and all Rabanastre will be obliterated! All ships, [[HeroicSacrifice concentrate your fire on the]] ''[[HeroicSacrifice Alexander]]'''s [[DeathFromAbove remains]] once ''Bahamut'' is clear of the city."

* HotChickWithASword: Though you can change her equipment as you like, she starts out with a sword. Also see SwordOfPlotAdvancement below.

* HairOfGold

** [[HolyHandGrenade Heaven's Wrath]]

* CrutchCharacter: It isn't uncommon for players to save a lot of the optional sidequests and bosses for Larsa's second time joining the party. Besides the fact that Guest Party members are ''always'' a good thing for the fourth member, Larsa's infinite supply of Hi-Potions and X-Potions make a lot of the optional parts of the game much easier.

* HyperspaceArsenal: Larsa infamously has an infinite supply of Potions and Hi-Potions in his pockets. Thankfully, he uses them very liberally.

** Doesn't help that he's initially known as "Lamont," not the most gender-specific name, and he isn't referred to as a male by anyone until you find out he's Vayne's brother.

* DramaticWind: Especially when performing her Quickenings. More noticeable when fighting outside, but even inside her clothing tends to flutter, just less so.

* BadassInDistress

* TheJuggernaut: Try stopping her once she gets going, I dare you.

* {{Sword of Plot Advancement}}, {{Cool Sword}} and {{BFS}}: Two of them --the Sword of Kings, and the Treaty Blade.
* WeaponOfChoice: [[HeroesPreferSwords Swords]] of various different styles, even when she uses [[StuffBlowingUp bombs]] in the sequal she still has a sword in her artwork.

** [[BlowYouAway White Whorl]]

** [[DeathFromAbove Element of Treachery]]

** [[FullContactMagic Feral Strike]]
** [[SupernaturalMartialArts Whip Kick]]

** [[ShockAndAwe Maelstrom's Bolt]]

* MagicSkirt: Played straight for the most part, but there's a way to subvert it--if you remove Ashe's weapon and make her [[GoodOldFisticuffs fight bare handed]], she'll start doing high kicks and [[PantyShot the expected result]] is achieved. For those curious, they're the same color as her skirt and [[TheDevTeamThinksOfEverything nothing overly naughty is visible]].

* HyperspaceArsenal: Larsa infamously has an infinite supply of Potions and Hi-Potions, and he'll (thankfully) use them liberally.

* TheGunslinger

** Unfortunately thanks to her outfit in that game, we get to learn a lot about her... *ahem* shaving habits. SoYeah.

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: [[spoiler: Inflicting a fatal wound on Vayne via Gabranth's sword]]

** [[KillItWithFire Pyroclasm]]

* WalkingShirtlessScene: Well, he doesn't wear one to begin with, SoYeah...

!!Basch fon Ronsenburg

* {{Playing With Fire}} and {{Blow you Away}}: His Quickenings, while non-elemental, have the appearance of fire and wind attacks.

* TagalongKid: Somewhat, he is only a few years younger than Ashe and is more of TheLancer towards her, but does not have a connection true connection to the main plot.

* {{Playing With Fire}}, {{Making a Splash}}: His Quickenings resemble those and a meteor spell.

* {{An Ice Person}}: Her Quickening Shatterheart

* {{Kamehamehadoken}}: With {{Dark is not Evil}}: His Quickening Fulminating Darkness.

* WeaponOfChoice: [[{{BFS}} Great Swords]] in all sequals and [[HeroesPreferSwords normal swords]] in XII.
