Lucky Linkshell - Phoenix

You used to have to look out for fan videos to experience something like this:

No word on whether or not there will be any releases outside of Japan, though.

That is easily one of my most anticipated games, with FFXIII being the only one I'm more anxious for :)

I found this LiveJournal entry while browsing the FFXI communities at work. It's official artwork for the confirmed characters/villains from Final Fantasy 1-10.

Not included in this set of artwork is Shantotto, who has been confirmed as a representative of Final Fantasy 11.

...Yeah. They chose her as a HERO! I realize she's pretty powerful in ToAU, but she's still downright evil. I'm pretty pissed off about this.

And they still never chose the FFXI Villain character yet either. Wonder who it's gonna be?

Obviously, as the game is only out in Japan right now the voice acting is all in Japanese. But I think fans of hers will be quite pleased, especially around the 1:21 mark.

It looks like she changes to the corresponding elemental staff for each spell she casts. And I definitely saw her use Retribution at one point. In her EX mode (think like FFIX's Limit Break) she changes from her "normal" outfit into what looks like the BLM Relic set.

After watching this second one it looks like her EX mode special ability is Chainspell, as she casts Ancient Magic back-to-back. Around 2:02 is the magic spot for this one.
