Age: 27
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 169 lbs

About (No Spoilers)

     King Edgar of Figaro is really a member of the Returners like Locke but he also secretly tries to remain loyal and faithful to the Empire.  However, after he encounters Terra for the first time, he then realizes her importance to the Returners.  Edgar also claims he is good with women and likes to use his charm on them at times too.  Edgar is a master of Technology and he also hides a secret past as well.

Major Relations

     Edgar remains close friends with Locke since both are members of the Returners and is well respected in the Kingdom of Figaro.  But he has the closest relations with his twin brother, Sabin.  Their past is an interesting one and after their father died, Edgar and Sabin then used a coin for a “Coin Toss” to determine who would become the King of Figaro.  Turns out that Edgar won and Sabin then decided to go away for a while and train in the martial arts as a student of the famous Master Duncan.  Eventually, the Figaro brothers are reunited and other than that, Edgar does not have any strong relations with other characters in the game other than the Returners and his brother, Sabin.

Character Developments (Spoilers)

     King Edgar of Figaro pretends to support the Empire until Locke brings in Terra to him and then they realize her gift of magic can truly help the Returners.  After Imperial troops arrive in Figaro Castle, Edgar refuses to give Terra up to them and later on, Kefka and his troops then burn down Figaro Castle.  Throughout the adventure, Edgar and the Returners hope to bring an end to the Empire and restore peace to the world again.  Edgar is a kind and caring person who seems to be a womanizer as well and he does have a brother who has a secret past with him too.

Review

     A strong character with full of unique abilities, Edgar is a decent character who plays an important role in the game as part of the Returners and being the King of Figaro.  He does have the “Tools” command, which can be useful in battle, depending on the situation.  Overall, Edgar has a good personality and in my view, he’s a solid all-around character although I do like Locke a little better though.  Still, Edgar is a useful character to use in almost any situation.

Weapons/Armor

     Edgar can equip weapons like Lances and Swords and he can equip heavy armor like Terra.  Edgar is stronger as a fighter, physically wise than Terra and Locke although his stats are quite good overall.  Edgar is a good fighter in battle although magic-wise, he is the same as Locke so don’t expect too much out of Edgar if you’re using him for magic.  Edgar is best used when putting him in the front row as he does not have any long-range weapons for him to use and he is a strong character to use in battle, overall.

    *NOTE: Value is the price you must pay for it, if it's "1", you can find it as an item.
     If "???" is the attack power value, the value will change on varying conditions such as level.
