Topic	Who is the main character in Final Fantasy VI?
Lopen 10/20/21 5:07:54 PM #15:	Considering Terra the main character of FFVI is like considering Aeris the main character of FFVII or River the main character of Firefly. Like you can have a lot of intrigue in the plot be centered around a character and give them moments, but honestly to me if they're not actually the driving force behind anything that can't really make said character the main. It makes them either a glorified plot device or a supporting character depending on how well they're written. I honestly see Kefka as a legitimate argument for main as he's unanimously driving the antagonistic force which is the focus of the story, but Edgar is the unifier that allows the so called 12 main characters be a unit to stand against Kefka. In both worlds he's the biggest or tied for biggest catalyst for everyone grouping up. In WoB he's the guy who runs the Returners with Locke's help and in WoR while Celes is the first one we really see making strides to getting the band back together, Edgar is doing things offscreen and it's not until Celes meets up with Edgar that the recruiting really starts to happen (Setzer is also important, but he's kinda just moping until the party gets to him-- and Sabin is technically 100% optional) --- No problem!
