Introduction
**********
Hello, and welcome to Allen's FF6 FAQ. I know, you are probably used to
the name FF3, but it will be called FF6 from here on out. The purpose of
this guide isn't for cheating and looking at all of the time, but for a
reference guide. It will be just like a strategy guide, but it is free,
and you can actually find one! The game has gotten so old, it would be
pretty hard. Why am I writing this FAQ when Mynock has a perfectly good
guide? Two reasons. A. I am bored, and I would like to write a FAQ for
my favorite game to kill time. B. Mynock needs some dang competition! I
will not steal ANYTHING from his guide, nor do I want to. I want a
challenge, and I have accepted this one. I will be writing the
walkthrough by previous knowlege, another playthough of the game, and a
little help from my strategy guide. I will either make the lists myself,
or not put them in the FAQ. FF6 is my favorite game on Earth, and I will
love writing this FAQ. If anyone wants to help me, let me know. Thanks.
*************
Revision History
*************
1.0 - This is the first version. I finished the Intro section, the
conclusion, and some of the basic stuff. This is really just a release
to get things started.
1.5 - I finished the song list, and the Esper/Spell list. It has some
good stuff, and it worth checking out.
****************************************
PART 2 - THE BASICS
****************************************
************
The Basic Story
************
There are MANY characters in FF6, so don't try and keep track of them
all just yet. The main story is about a mysterious young girl named
Terra. She has the gift of magic. No HUMANS have that gift. There was a
war in this world 1000 years ago, and it left the world in ruin. Humans
fought against the Espers: mythical creatures that could use magic. No
one knows why Terra can use magic, because she looks human... all except
for her green hair! It turns out, this evil empire that is trying to get
her (to get her magical abilities under their control, and so that they
can use her to talk to the Esper, which have gone to their own world).
It also turns out that they have a bad apple in the Empire: Kefka. He is
an insane war leader, that doesn't just want to get magic back, he wants
to use magic to destroy the world! Terra makes many friends along the
way. Some die, some fall in love, and some go insane. That's for you to
figure out in the game!
************
The Characters
************
I will have the main characters (that are playable and are in your party
for a large portion of the game) in this first section, with a list of
their abilities and stuff, and then the bad guys and good guys with
small roles in the next section.
Terra - A young girl controlled by the empire, born with the gift of
magic...
Ability - Morph
Note - Terra also gains magic by leveling up, which is only possible
with her and one other character.
Locke - Treasure hunter and trail worn traveler, searching the world
over for relics of the past...
Ability - Steal
Note - Steal can change to Capture. Stealing steals an item from the
enemy, and Capture does the same, but also attacks the enemy.

designer of machinery...

Note - Hear is a list of the Tools he can use, and where to get them

spirit...

monsters...

them, kinda like Gau's Rage. You will find a Lore list later in the FAQ.
Relm - In her pictures she captures everything: forests, water, light...
the very essence of life...

Note - Relm can draw an enemy, and have the drawing attack for your
side. Wearing the Fake Mustache, she can use the Control ability, which
lets her control the enemy for your side.

However, with the Blizzard Orb or Rage Ring relics, he can do two
special attacks: Ice Storm and Rage.
Gogo - Shrouded in odd clothing,... is this a man...?...a woman...?...or
should we ask...?
Ability - Mimic
Note - Gogo can Mimic any person that comes before him, doing anything
they just did. He can also use anyone elses abilities on his own. Go to
Status, and you can put whatever you want for his other slots!
Other Characters:

Vargas - Duncan's son
Maria - an opera singer
That's all I can think of. If you think of some more good ones, let me
know.
************
Basic Gameplay
************
The gameplay of Final Fantasy 6, for me, is perfect. It combines pre-set
abilities, like in FF4 (for better character development) and
customization, like in FF5 (for more replay). The pre-set abilities have
already been talked about in the "The Basic Characters" section. Each
character has one pre-set ability that only they can use. That also
gives the game strategy. You must plan what characters you want in your
party. The customization comes in the form of Magicite, the ruins of
dead Espers. You can equip them to different people. When you do this, 2
things happen. You can summon that Esper, to attack, or heal, or do
something ^_^. Also, by keeping the Espers equipped for a certain amount
of time, you can learn the spells that that Esper can give you. You can
see a list of the Espers and their spells later in the FAQ. You must
give each person good spells, or else they will be fairly useless in
battle. Use good judgment, and keep your characters up to date with
spells, and you'll be OK in the world of Final Fantasy 6!
