He gained the trust and respect of his crew when he tamed a sea dragon and used it to pull the massive ship docked in a cove north of Tycoon as the winds died down. The pirates were completely oblivious to the beast's presence, and yet it isn't the only secret that the foul-tongued buccaneer has kept - Faris is a '''she'''! This doesn't stop Faris from being crude and selfish, and neither does it stop her from talking in pirate-speak when the others learn of her charade. As her story develops, the player is given huge hints that there is more to this fiery young woman than just a concealed gender - is she Lenna's long-lost sister? | ||
The epitome of courage, Faris is endowed with the essence of Fire, making her one of the Light Warriors. | |||

[[File:Galuf FFV.jpg|thumb|right|Galuf.]] | [[File:Galuf FFV.jpg|thumb|right|Galuf.]] | ||
Galuf is a mysterious old man that was found at the meteorite in Tycoon near the beginning of the game. However, he could not remember anything about himself apart from his name – Galuf – due to head-trauma induced amnesia. Despite his advanced years, Galuf is usually the first one up for a fight and never gives up. It is later discovered that Galuf is, in fact, the King of Bal Castle and has a granddaughter, Krile, who later takes his place as a Light Warrior. | Galuf is a mysterious old man that was found at the meteorite in Tycoon near the beginning of the game.

At first, Galuf doesn't recognize his role due to his amnesia. However, the Crystals sense that Galuf represents hope, and thus he is endowed with the essence of Earth, making him one of the Light Warriors. | |||

Krile and her grandfather share an unbreakable bond, and so after certain events in the game, she will take Galuf's place as a Warrior of Light, inheriting all of Galuf's abilities plus any stats carried forward from his Jobs. | Krile and her grandfather share an unbreakable bond, and so after certain events in the game, she will take Galuf's place as a Warrior of Light, inheriting all of Galuf's abilities plus any stats carried forward from his Jobs. | ||

===Exdeath=== | ===Exdeath=== | ||
'''Also known as:''' ''X-Death'' (PSX) | |||
The main antagonist, Exdeath, is a dark mage that began life as a tree in the Great Forest of Moore years before the events of the game. The tree grew, fueled by hate and a desire to unseal the power of the Void from 1000 years ago, when the world was split in two. Thirty years before the events of the game, he becomes the ruler of one world by brute force and, failing to find the crystals sealed within it, decides to take over the other. However, the Dawn Warriors—Galuf, Xezat Surgate, Kelgar Vlondett, and Dorgann Klauser—learn of his sinister plot and pursue him. A great battle is fought, but the Dawn Warriors barely manage to subdue Exdeath in spite of his exceedingly powerful magic. As a last resort, the Dawn Warriors combine the powers of the world's four crystals into a seal. Exdeath is banished, but will the seal hold? | The main antagonist, Exdeath, is a dark mage that began life as a tree in the Great Forest of Moore years before the events of the game.
