Bio

Strago Magus
Age:  70
Height:  4'11"
Weight:  94 lbs

About (No Spoilers)

     Strago is a descendant from the ancient Mage Warriors and he is the most powerful magic user in all of the village of Thamasa.  The odd thing is that all the villagers in Thamasa have the rare ability to use magic.  Strago spends most of his time taking care of his granddaughter, Relm although he does still have good memories of his past.

Major Relations

     Other than his granddaughter Relm, Strago doesn’t have any major relations in the game other than his long-time friend in Thamasa, Gungho.  Strago and Gungho go back, to the days when they were young and both were constantly after a creature called Hidon, who they both failed to defeat a long time ago.  Other than this, Strago doesn’t have any major relations with the other characters in the game.

Character Developments (Spoilers)

     As an experience Mage, Strago is quite a good magic user although he can only use Blue Magic and can learn spells after defeating certain enemies.  He joins up with the others after they seek his help in Thamasa about the missing Espers later on in the game.  After some thinking, he decides to join them and he hopes to one day defeat a creature from his past that eluded him when he was young.  While Strago is sometimes a misunderstanding person at first, he still has strong courage and is a determined person, even as an old man.

Review

     As a descendant of the legendary Mage Warriors, Strago has an interesting past that he puts behind him and concentrates his efforts to take care of his granddaughter, Relm.  However, after crossing paths with the other party members, he is caught up in the struggle against Kefka and the Empire.  While Strago may be old, he still has some strong Blue Magic spells to use and he is wise and provides some interesting information about the Espers to the rest of the party.  He plays a reasonable role in the story, even if it’s not that big.

Weapons/Armor

     Strago, as a Mage can equip weaker weapons like Staffs and Rods, although his attacks are very weak.  The good thing is that his Blue Magic attacks are good later on and they are very useful after defeating Hidon.  Strago can only equip Hats and other very light armor so his defense isn’t always that high but he can equip some Shields as well.

    *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.
