So during the Final Fantasy VIII plot-line we were thrown 4 different bosses that ranged from semi-important , to MAJORLY important. I'll let you decide or think to who fits into what category, but for now, which of these 4 bosses, when you encountered them, were you most happy to get out of the way? Which boss, if any, did you have the most dis-like for?
Let's break each character down real quick:
Let's break each character down real quick:
Seifer Almasy
Classmate and rival of Squall's. Considered a powerful warrior, but personality traits conflict with him and his unfavorable ego eventually earns him the label "problematic". He has a tendency to do whatever he wants, despite any illogic it entails. He also has a propensity towards violence, which might be why he's head of the Balamb Garden Disciplinary Committe, with Fujin and Raijin. He's the only other person in the world of 8 who wields a gunblade. He attended the Kramers' orphanage as a child as well.
Edea Kramer
presented early in Final Fantasy VIII as a power-hungry sorceress who takes control of Galbadia. Her motives are initially unknown, but SeeD is dispatched to eliminate her. It is eventually revealed that Edea is not evil, but rather possessed by an evil sorceress from the future called Ultimecia. When Ultimecia releases Edea, she takes the side of the SeeDs in the struggle, and for a short time even joins the party. Later on, Edea accidentally gives her powers to Rinoa, making her a sorceress. Her full name is Edea Kramer, and we learn that she is actually the wife of Headmaster Cid of Balamb Garden, and was known as "Matron" to Squall and his friends during the time when they lived with her at the orphanage in the continent of Centra.
Adel
Sorceress who rose to power in Esthar and is the initiator of the Sorceress War. As the ruler, she (Yes, she's female, not male) had her soldiers abduct every girl who might serve as her successor, such as Ellone. During the revolution, she was tricked by Laguna and placed in suspended animation in space. Seventeen years later, after losing control of Edea, Ultimecia possessed Rinoa and used her to free Adel to serve as a new vessel. Adel was later revived in the Lunatic Pandora and was defeated by Squall and his party when she tried to absorb Rinoa.
Ultimecia
The sorceress that SeeD was formed to defeat, though this is discovered quite late in the game, as she operates through the body of Edea Kramer prior to this revelation. While possessing Edea, Ultimecia gains control of Galbadia, and later possesses Rinoa in order to release Sorceress Adel from her tomb. Afterward, Ultimecia abandons Rinoa, leaving her to die in space, but Rinoa is rescued and Ultimecia is soon fought and defeated. A sorceress from the future, Ultimecia is the embodiment of pure evil and capable of reaching back through time via a special machine in order to possess other sorceresses and manipulate them. Fully aware of her predestined fate to die at SeeD's hands, she desires to conquer it through casting the spell called "Time Compression," which would cause all eras to merge. She could then absorb the power of all the sorceresses throughout history and absorb all space-time itself, essentially becoming a god to direct all creation as she pleased. Ironically, it is through her desire to alter the past and cheat her fate that she fulfills the terms of her destiny (defeat at the hands of Squall Leonhart and his comrades) and perpetuates the cycle that will lead to the formation of SeeD.
