Nah, that's Acheron/Titan/Hecatonchier from FFIII. Now, which palette swap it actually is I guess we'll have to wait and see. Hecatoncheir is a boss from the Cave of Shadows. Titan (not the summon, but has the same name for whatever reason) is the boss of the Ancient's Maze (the dungeon before...

Barthandelus's name and design are a reference to the FFV monster, Baldanders. http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Baldanders The FFV monster, of course, is a reference to the mythological Baldanders mentioned in this thread. And no doubt, the FFXIII creators had the mythology as well as the...

SOLDIER's, as powerful and elite as they are, are just that - soldiers in an army. Turks are like the secret police, special agents, 007's of Shinra. They go on top secret missions, play spy games, ferret out information, and do assassinations and other hush-hush stuff. Both are just taking...

Seems everything there points to the President simply not having an intended first name at all. Seeing as this is the same game with Hojo and Sephiroth, two other people with oddly...lacking...full names, I don't think this is too unusual. President Shinra must simply have always been known as...

Eh, then we'll schlock-block him and prevent him from editing if he wants to make a federal case of it. It's been a year since that edit, so maybe he's moved on to greener pastures....

I was planning on removing it, but I figured hey! Stranger things have happened. You got characters named Cloud and Squall and Lightning and Butts. Thanks for the insights.

Is DLPB notorious? Also, the Japanese wiki sounds like they don't know if its his name or his title, either. If they don't know, chances are the Japanese version isn't making anything any clearer than the English version does.

Okay, I think this is pretty stupid, but I might be wrong. I noticed on the wiki there's a blurb added about a year ago that states President Shinra's first name is actually the word President, and that the Japanese version somehow supports this wacky notion. The person who claimed this used...

And that's it for FFIX, finally! Eidolons, Weapons and Items, and Airships, ahoy! http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Special:ListFiles/Espritduo Everything down to the 16th is the new stuff since the enemy artwork. Whew, onto FFX!

Went a little crazy and spent the whole day pounding out the enemy artwork. http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Final_Fantasy_IX_Enemy_Artwork_Images My favorites are the artwork for the four Guardians, which we never really get a good look at in the game. It's interesting to look at...

Hah, thought I gave up, didn't you!? After looking at the mess that was the FFIX location artwork, I really felt like it, but I soldiered on and finished it off. Next, monsters, eidolons, weapons, then airships...

No they most certainly have not. And if they have, that would be the biggest bombshell of FFXIII, and demands a quote from who said it and when and in what context. Doesn't matter what he said, it's just a common kanji with multiple pronunciations. He may say ken in one interview, and someone...

Fang and Vanille being "more than friends" is nothing but fan opinion. The only thing we can say, objectively, is that they are friends. Unless the game says they are lesbian lovers, the FF Wiki is not going to imply anything more than what the game says. We don't speculate. Cloud's swords in...

Whew! FFIX's about halfway done now. Character art is ridiculous! http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Special:ListFiles/Espritduo FFIX stuff goes back to the March 20th.

The official concept art might shed some light on the Mighty Grunt: http://images.wikia.com/finalfantasy/images/1/1a/Mighty_Grunt_Artwork.jpg
