Bio
Vaan
Age:
17
Race: Hume
About (No Spoilers)
Vaan
is a free-roaming street orphan who has a dream of flying the skies and
having a sense of adventure. He longs to become a sky pirate.
Major Relations
Vaan is
often followed by his childhood friend Penelo. Together, they have
lost their family members from war and in Vaan's case of his parents, the
plague. Both are orphans and have known each other since they were
little. Vaan is the brother of Reks, who is conscripted into the
Dalmascan army to fight off the Arcadian invasion.
Character
Developments
(Spoilers)
Vaan's
brother Reks is killed by what appears to be Basch in the storming of
Nalbina Fortress and at first does not trust Basch but later on finds out
that it wasn't Basch who killed Reks but rather, Judge Gabranth. After
the death of Reks, Vaan is determined to stop the Arcadian empire and like
Penelo, just wants to restore Dalmasca to the peaceful state it had been
before the Arcadians occupied the kingdom.
Review
I
don't believe that Vaan is the main character of the storyline at all.
He is merely just a side character and the storyline does not focus around
him very much. He and Penelo tag along with the Dalmascan resistance
with Ashe and company as Dalmasca is their home and they want to fight to
protect it from Arcadia. While a few lines of dialogue come off as
being carefree, silly and sometimes kind of goofy at first, deep down he
wants to avenge the death of his brother Reks and wishes for a sense of
adventure. By going with two sky pirates, Fran and Balthier, he begins
to realize his dream of becoming one.
