In some nations these Dominants are treated as royalty in admiration of this strength-in others they are bound in fear of it, and forced to serve as weapons of war. Each resides within a Dominant-a single man or woman who is blessed with the ability to call upon their dread power. The Eikons are the most powerful and deadly creatures in Valisthea. Yet now the peace falters as the spread of the Blight threatens to destroy their dominions. Great powers have grown up around each Mothercrystal, and an uneasy peace has long reigned between them. For generations, people have flocked to these beacons to take advantage of their blessing, using the aether to conjure magicks that let them live lives of comfort and plenty. The land of Valisthea is studded with Mothercrystals-glittering mountains of crystal that tower over the realms around them, blessing them with aether. Valisthea―A Land Blessed in the Light of the Mothercrystals Ever kind, gracious, and unassuming, Jill has become a trusted confidant to the brothers. The Archduke insisted that she be raised alongside his sons, and now, at twelve years of age, she is as much a part of the Rosfield household as Clive and Joshua. But carrots become the least of his concern when he, too, is swept up into the tragic events that change Clive’s life forever.īorn in the fallen Northern Territories, Jill was taken from her homeland at a tender age to become a ward of Rosaria, securing peace between the two warring nations. While Clive will gladly throw himself into any danger, Joshua quails at the sight of a carrot on his dinner plate. Joshua often laments that it was he, the frail and bookish younger son, who was granted command of the firebird’s flames, and not his stronger, braver brother. Despite his noble upbringing, Joshua treats all his father’s subjects with warmth and affection-none more so than Clive, whom he deeply admires.

Joshua awoke as the Dominant of the Phoenix soon after his birth. The second son of the Archduke of Rosaria and Clive’s younger brother by five years. His practice pays off when, at just fifteen years of age, he wins the ducal tournament and is dubbed the First Shield of Rosaria-tasked to guard the Phoenix and blessed with the ability to wield a part of his fire.Īlas, Clive’s promising career is to end in tragedy at the hands of a mysterious dark Eikon, Ifrit, setting him on a dangerous road to revenge. In search of a role of his own, Clive dedicated himself to mastering the blade. Though all expected him to inherit the Phoenix’s flames and awaken as its Dominant, destiny instead chose his younger brother Joshua to bear this burden. The firstborn son of the Archduke of Rosaria. Little else was revealed for Final Fantasy 16, until today! A new official site popped up online, and it had plenty to say about the game’s characters and the world they inhabit. The game is looking violent, the world is looking splendid, and the themes look more mature than previous games.

However I promise, the wait will be worth it!” In a statement, Director HIroshi Takai said: “Though we're pouring our hearts and souls into this project each and every day, it may still be some time before we can get it into your hands.
