(+) Yeah! (+)

- Vote from 0-10, use 5 as an average, decimals are okay.
- Don't be lame and use alts or anything like that.
- Only vote if you've played enough of the respective game to have a good feel for the character. This if of course subjective for the character so you'll have to use your own judgment. But if you played fifteen minutes of the game once, you probably don't know the character well enough.

I sold my sig for gas money.
SuperNiceDog just kicked my ass.

8.6/10.

Spends too much time on the dark side in FF4 to be EXTREMELY likable, but holy **** is he EPIC in TAY.

A staple formula for FF villains:
"They only do this, but lets kill them anyway!!!"

7.3/10

Best character in FFIV.

8/10

Too easily manipulated but still an interesting character.

Shotgun, BANG. What's up with that thang?

1/10.

Awful. Mind control is rarely good plot, and his personality is mostly summed up as a cliche one-sided relationship with Rosa. Other than that, he's an FF4 character, which means he gets like a dozen badly-translated lines.

Cool dude, totally a bro when he's not mind******.

Even then he makes a good enemy-that-used-to-be-friend.

Dang, I missed the Figaro twins, ah well, they got high votes so I'm glad...

For Kain, 9.4/10

One of the few Final Fantasy Dragoons to have that epic armor, a spear, and Jump... All three things that make a true Dragoon (except Dragon breath can replace the armor), thus, he's my favorite, and honestly one of my favorite characters in Final Fantasy... minus him being evil for way too long

SuperNiceDog owned me in the Guru. Or do I have to stop using the word "owned" in order to not offend black people due to slavery?

7.5

Dragoons are cool and he's got the best design for one, and I thought he brought some intrigue to the storyline. Him flopping several times was kinda dumb, and I think he'd be a way cooler character if it was somewhat ambiguous whether he was really being mind controlled or not (it's kinda implied that his jealousy of Cecil/desire for Rosa lets him get mind controlled more easily but that's not quite the same thing), but eh. Still pretty good.

Also equipping him with AVENGER and just plowing through things is fun times.

I tried to have a fierce rivalry with SuperNiceDog, but he made me look worse than a GameFAQs Contest!

5 out of 10.

Likeable in some respects but not in others, so an average score.

9/10

Pretty good character, totally makes FFIV what it is, imo. One of the best friends turned rival turned friend (turned rival and friend again) relationships ever. Jump being useful in FF4 was a plus too.

Meh......

5/10

I want to like him, but he's just so... weak-minded.

"Pardon me for breathing, which I never do any way so I don't know why I bother to say it, oh God, I'm so depressed."

0/10

He would have been better if he followed Golbez by his own will instead of being "lol mindcontrolled"
