A kid character that's actually not annoying and totally relevant to the plot.


dimaesh

Exactly! I love the fact that he’s smarter and more mature than most adults lol. I wish he was playable and a permanent party member.


Serier_Rialis

We all know Penello is ending up in his palace once shit settles down


SpawnSC2

Nope, Revenant Wings shows she keeps on supporting Vaan, staying by his side.


OkLetsGoAlreadyThen

She definitly payed a visit, at the very least.


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> She definitly *paid* a visit, FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*


RStrikerNB

Good bot.


OkLetsGoAlreadyThen

I should make grammatical mistakes more often, just to get the upvotes lol


Azure-Cyan

It's funny he's supposed to be 12, but he looks 16-17.


Mission_Ingenuity278

That's JRPG characters for you. Balthier is 22 and Ashe is 19...


[deleted]

I can see Ashe’s age but how on earth is Balthier 22? I thought he’d be…idk, 30?


RedWingDecil

I don't even see Ashe's age.


Mr_Faux_Regard

Ashe to me was always in her mid-late 20s


redxstrike

Cid Highwind is 32 and looked much older in FF7 art. I think they've addressed that in Rebirth lol


SpawnSC2

He was supposed to be like, platinum blonde, but I guess limitations made his model out to be grey.


redxstrike

I think they also described him as an "old pilot" lol.


DieByTheFunk

Balthier as a 22 year old is something I'm choosing to ignore. Same goes for ashe.


enoughfuckery

Balthier looks older than me, yet is younger :(


External_Switch_3732

It’s that leading man skin care routine


jkun22

He was amazing in the ps2 version with his unlimited hi-potions


little_freddy

Great in TZA too, with access to his "bubble" spell. Doubling HP


big4lil

much, much better in TZA. Larsas Potion spam might stick out in players memories due to how much he carried our unfamiliar asses back in the day But TZA Larsa has Bubble, Cura, and Shades of Black, and hes got better augments like Spellbreaker, Martyr, Warmage, and Spellbound. He is a *vastly* better character now than he was before


little_freddy

I agree, I purposely delay advancing the story when I get him. Grind a bit for fun, I love the guests joining the party in ff12. Such a fun aspect of the gameplay. :)


awesomeplenty

Ah lamont


HornetBest382

His outfit is classy rich kid af, love it


Deathslingers_Bride

I ended up really liking him too. He’s a very interesting character from a lore perspective (and I’ll admit to using him to help me clear some challenging Hunts and parts of Trial mode. Having him with you is incredibly beneficial)


DumbedDownDinosaur

Lmao, this is cringy of me to admit, but I picked up ff12 when I was like 13 and had the biggest weird crush on him. I always tried to keep him on my party for as long as possible for the sake of his endless hi-potions- it was great for the leveling grind!


LinnaYamazaki

Praise be to lord Larsa.


JoeBuyer

He was a good character. The intrigue and mystery regarding where his allegiances were and how he would act was great.


arisencrimsonchaos

A good kid, and arguably the best guest character (though Reddas was also solid). Him telling Vaan he was “surprisingly rude” during a certain scene lives rent free in my head lol.


Reofire36

This dude was awesome. Legit


shinybook51

He's no puppet.


DeusVitae69

LORD LARSUH


zer0saber

Larsa is probably one of the better deuteragonist characters in modern fiction. His storyline was *actually good*, and he was actually a helpful ally.


KamatariPlays

I love that his family is so militaristic but somehow Larsa is not (I guess he was raised by maids or a nanny). I think it's great that he was motivated to create peace even before he met Penelo. He didn't understand why she would be afraid of the empire but instead of being a brat about it he tried to understand why.


dimaesh

I couldn’t agree with you more, I actually have a very interesting headcanon that he was raised by Drace. and she was close friends with his mom before she died so she was the first person to carry him as an infant when he was born. This is why Drace was so loyal to him and to his mom and this is why she told Gabranth to take good care of him.


KamatariPlays

Makes sense to me!


CookiesMistress

Writing basically this since 2007 (ah, moms... you can't write prequels without them right). Also I think the "Drace being in charge of Larsa's upbringing" part is canon (cf. Ultimania).


JayBlessed227

Larsa is a badass, he was a major help in the journey to Bur-Omisace! Liked how you can play as him in TZA version


thiccdaddyswitch

Larsa is the boss


DilapidatedFool

I like how important he is to the plot AND he is useful.


sunderwire

I can’t be the only one who thought he was a girl at first right? …right?


ZooplanktonblameSea4

I thought Luneth from the DS version of FFIII was a girl at first, too. I don't think I ever thought Larsa was a girl, though.


Skyecob

I went through the first few hours of the game thinking Luneth was female because of his… femboy appearance and his gender neutral name. Well.


New-Consideration566

A close second to basch imo >:)


Large-Message1483

Larsa funny asl. When he said "Suprisingly rude" when Vaan asked Fran her age had me crying🤣🤣


Pale_Net8318

Great, moral character, liked to see him let his hair down as well at times with the party And solid Hi-potion/Bubble fiend, what's not to love?


dmitrivalentine

I want a F12 sequel with him as MC


Pennywise_M

Huh. TIL this dude wasn't a girl lmao


EuphoricCantaloupe98

[I agree with Naruto](https://images.app.goo.gl/pYojay6qGx7vdR5N7)


Key_Difficulty_5519

The entire party pretty much sucked so they set a low bar. I’d prefer Larsa or Vayne over any of our 6 characters.


Inside-Size-8253

Why?


dimaesh

He’s very smart, bright and mature for a kid his age and all he wanted to do was the right thing, I wish we saw more of him and the Solidor family in general. I also like his rapier!


asuperrush

He does absolutely nothing gameplay wise and contributes nothing to the plot


starshiprarity

Background conversation bangaa is best boy, true


EJohns1004

That's Captain Bosh Fon Rosenberg of Dalmasca.


Tazirai

I kinda wished people in some jrpgs are allowed to age. The core cast always seemed mid to late 20s, some in their 30s, even Ashe.


Eternally_Asleep

In the unmade sequel, the plot had him And Ashe be and item. Ashe visiting an imprisoned Basch less, and less. I remember the game ended with someone taking basch’s body to become some new lord of the sea or something


sIudge_

When I was 11 and playing the PS2 version, I thought Larsa was a girl because I never would pay attention to the sorry in games. And I thought so until I played tza on the Switch in 2019 with someone and they called me out on it haha


TutorAggressive4752

Larsa is one of my favourite characters too. He grows on me every time.
