28. Auron (Final Fantasy X)

https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/b/be/Auron_Menu.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20081129145420

"Now! This is it! Now is the time to choose! Die and be free of pain, or live and fight your sorrow! Now is the time to shape your stories! Your fate is in your hands!"

Speaking of effortlessly likable - is there anyone who doesn't at least kind of like Auron? He was the coolest god damn thing in the world when I was younger and he still holds up pretty well even now. Auron is the archetypal stoic RPG badass with a secret past and hidden depths. There's nothing particularly unique about Auron's character but it doesn't matter because its all executed so well. He steals every scene he's in without even trying. His character arc is simple but very satisfying. The highlight has to be the quote I chose for him - it's easily the best moment in a game with a lot of great moments. There's a reason that GameFAQs has essentially adopted him as the Character Battle stand-in for FFX despite there being several other actual main characters from the game that get in every year.

Not much else to say about Auron. I'm no longer the kid whose mind was blown when he cameo'd in Kingdom Hearts 2, but I'll always appreciate him.
