Confirmed character overview

Rain remains the central hero. The August 25 official update expands the confirmed cast with Jake, Sakura, and three more members of the Sworn Six, while the July material still supports Lid, Nichol, and the earlier Veritas profiles.

  • Lid is an airship engineer from Dirnado and a candidate to inherit Dilmagia's title of Cid.
  • Nichol is an Olderion strategist raised among the Wardens of the Waters.
  • Veritas of the Heavens fights with a lance and wind-aspected techniques.
  • Veritas of the Waters uses water magic and seeks the destruction of the Crystals.
  • Jake leads a rebellion against Zoldaad and fights with luck-based coin tosses and gambling shots.
  • Sakura is a powerful sage from Mysidia whose true age and identity remain mysterious.
  • Veritas of the Flame, Earth, and Light add fire, defense, earth magic, guns, and light attacks to the confirmed antagonist roster.

Why Lid matters in battle

Lid fights with Mechabo, a mechanical chocobo she created. Special subquests unlock new skills and strengthen Mechabo, giving players a concrete reason to follow her optional character content instead of treating it as story-only material.

Places tied to the cast

Dilmagia is the birthplace of airship technology and the home of the title Cid, while Olderion is a water-rich capital protected by the Wardens of the Waters, the Maiden of Water, and a local esper. These locations provide useful context for Lid and Nichol without revealing late-story outcomes.

No fake tier list

A character tier list should wait until players can test combat, progression, boss fights, and party customization after release.

How to expand after launch

After release, this page can become a cast hub with character profiles, recruitment timing, role notes, Limit Burst details, and spoiler-controlled story sections.
