It’s Getting Busy Around Here

Which is a good thing, but that also means we have less time to tell you what’s going. As well as “Character of the Week”, and our Wave 1 guide which will take a while to complete.

But, we are here to sell cards, so it’s a good thing.

Dissidia Final Fantasy Collection Set 2023 came, and we still have a few left. If you’re interested pick one up. We’ll also throw in a coupon code for you FIVE. You can use it on anything. Not just the Dissidia collection.

We also grabbed some Flesh and Blood – Bright Lights, but those flew straight out of our hands before we even listed them. We do have singles for Bright Lights available on our TCGplayer store. Why use a TCGplayer store? Well it helps us list singles faster, and we know that some people don’t like shopping at a lesser known store, so we use Tcgplayer as the middle man. Plus, it doesn’t slow down the website.

Going forward we shall turn our Character of the week into Character of the Month. Which will give us time to take care of business with Beyond Destiny just around the corner.

Wakka, Wakka, Wakka

“My fastball gone broke da mouth.”

“A good-humored young man who travels the world as one of Yuna’s guardians. While he always looks out for others, his dependence on the teachings of Yevon oftentimes causes him to lose sight of reality. Wakka’s biggest passion is playing for and coaching his blitzball team, the Besaid Aurochs.”

-Character Guide from Dissidia Final Fantasy : Opera Omnia

Having lost his parents from one of Sin’s attacks, Wakka raised his younger brother Chappu with help from the villagers of Besaid. Wakka grew up alongside Lulu, an orphan as well, and ended up marrying her, fathers a child. And worries about raising it.

Wakka is a skilled Blitzball player, Captain of the Besaid Aurochs. Wakka retires during the game, but you can bring him out of retirement later on in the game. The Aurochs aren’t the greatest team, far from it, and upon hearing that Tidus is a star player, he asks him to join the team.

His hate for the Al-Bhed is clearly shown throughout the game. As he is always talking down to Rikku, until he finds out that Yuna is 1/2 Al-Bhed. And after the attack on the Al-Bhed by the Guado, he changes his tune completely.

Zack Fair

“Hey, would you say I became a hero?”

Shinra SOLDIER: Second Class. He left his hometown and came to Midgar with dreams of becoming a hero.

He tackles his assignments head-on as he aspires to one day be promoted to SOLDIER: First Class.

-taken from the website

We all know how this ends. If you don’t move along, nothing to see here.

Spoilers.

It’s raining, Cloud is useless due to the Mako poisoning, and Shinra is looking for the 2 escaped test subjects.

That is pretty much the ending to Crisis Core. Zack Vs the Shinra Army. I remember that battle. It felt like it would never end. The Soldiers just kept coming and coming, until they finally took Zack down.

Before all of that happened, Zack was a teenager, that ran away from home to join the Shinra army and became a SOLDIER. Angeal took Zack under his wings, and hands down the Buster Sword to Zack, who then passes it on to Cloud at the end of his story.

Zack met Aerith after falling down through the roof of the Sector 5 church. They began dating, but that all ended when Zack was sent on a mission to Nibelheim, alongside Sephiroth and Cloud. After the events that transpired there Hojo took Zack and Cloud for his new experiment the “Jenova Reunion Theory”. Zack escapes, helping Cloud escape as well.

Cor Leonis

“How long will you remain the protected? The king entrusted the role of protector to you.”

“Head of the Crownsguard and widely regarded as one of the three most powerful warriors in the Kingdom of Lucis. His unfailing ability to return from the brink of death has earned him the nickname “Cor the Immortal”—an appellation he particularly dislikes. On the eve of the signing ceremony, Regis tasked Cor with evacuating the citizens ahead of the imperial assault, knowing he could trust the marshal implicitly. After fleeing the ruins of Insomnia, he seeks out Noctis to share with him his late father’s dying wishes.

Cor holds the distinct honor of having served three separate Lucian monarchs: Mors, Regis, and Noctis. While his loyalty to his lieges has never wavered, his attitude toward authority has evolved over the years. In the arrogance of his youth, he publicly criticized Regis’s retreat from Accordo in the Great War, calling the then-crown prince and his men “a bunch of cowards.” While Cor’s Crownsguard colleagues were incensed by this show of impertinence, Regis was impressed with the young firebrand’s willingness to speak truth to power and immediately hired him as a personal bodyguard. The marshal was so touched by this show of grace that he swore to devote his life to serving Regis and his son Noctis.”

-Dossier Entry

Cor, the Immortal.

Commander of the Crownsguard.

Leader of the Kingslaive.

The personal bodyguard of the late King Mors, who went on to be the personal bodyguard of the late King Regis as well. He isn’t Noctis’s bodyguard, but he still serves him. Cor has served the Royal family for 3 generations. Which makes his story a pretty big one, but since I haven’t finished FFXV, I really can’t get into that.

All I can tell you is that Cor helps Noctis escape from Insomnia, and that even though he butts heads with Ignis, he still watches over Noctis and his party. Cor is the one to tell Noctis that he must collect the weapons of the late Kings.

Necron

“Come. Enter the Zero World you so desire.”

I wouldn’t call Necron the Main Antagonist of Final Fantasy IX but, he is the final boss. He isn’t behind Garland or Kuja either as a puppet-master. Necron sort of just appears out of nowhere at the end of the game, and tells us he will destroy all life as Necron has watched over Kuja and all of his actions throughout the story. And, based his opinion around Kuja.

Not anybody else, what would happen if he based his opinion around Hippaul? Would he assume that the whole world needs to get in shape? That’s probably what would happen if he based his opinion around me, too!

But, enough about me.

Necron has no alliances, no back story, no nothing. Necron doesn’t even have an entry in the Ultimania!
