Ffxii Summons!!

[Max the Man]

Salut, comment ca va? Yo, what's up? I was surfing some other FF Message boards I belong to and found a list of summons from FFXII. It's kind of bitter sweet, really, because the old school summons we've come to know and love disappeared, only to be replaced with frickin cool ones. ^^

Adrammelech
Belias
Chaos
Exdeath
Famfrit
Hashmalim
Mateus
Ultima
Shumihaza
Queklain
Zalera
Zeromus (Yes, Z-X, it's true ^^)
Zodiac

 

[Dark FFnut]

Adrammelech - Dragon. Lucavi of Capricorn and Totema of Bangaa.
Belias - B=V in Japanese translation. Belias=Velius, Lucavi of Aries.
Chaos - Final boss of FF1.
Exdeath - Final boss of FF5.
Famfrit - Totema of Moogle.
Hashmalim - Hashmalim=Hashmalum. Lucavi of Leo.
Mateus - Totema of Human.
Ultima - Ultima=Altima. Lucavi of Virgo and Totema of Nu Mou.
Shumihaza - Only one here I don't recognize.
Queklain - Lucavi of Scorpio.
Zalera - Lucavi of Gemini.
Zeromus - Final boss of FF4.
Zodiac - Summon in FFT.

Wow, with the exception of Shumihaza (which I'm sure I could find in a previous FF if I looked hard enough), every single one of these has appeared in a previous FF game (the majority from FFT and FFTA, which makes sense since the FFT team is in charge of this one).

Heh...glad to see Zeromus is in it. We could do without Shumihaza though.. -_-

 

[Max the Man]

who's shumihaza? and by "summons we have all come to know and love" I'm talking summons like Ifrit, Shiva, Bahamut, etc. not obscure summons like Zodiac.

 

[Staircase]

Shiva, Bahamut, Ifrit, ima miss you
BUT... On the better side the list is much longer, meaning more summons for us =).

 

[Dark FFnut]

Hoo hoo hoo! You're not letting us in on everything, are you? Each one of the summons represents a sign of the Zodiac!

Belias is Aries. Makes sense, since Velius is the Lucavi of the Aries Stone.

Chaos is Taurus.

Zahlera is Gemini. Once again, the Gemini Lucavi is Zalera, the Angel of Death.

Zeromus is Cancer.

Hashmal (no "im") is Leo. Again, Lucavi of Leo is Hashmalum.

Ultima is Virgo. HAY LOOK THE FFT LUCAVI WERE RIGHT AGAIN.

Exodus (NOT EXDEATH!) is Libra.

Cuchrain, the "Unclean King" (Impure King Queklain) is Scorpio. You know what I'm going to put here.

Shumihaza is Sagittarius.

Adrammalech is Capricorn and looks suspiciously like the dragon I described him as. Wait, could it be that the FFT Lucavi are now six for six? Shocking!

Famfrit is Aquarius.

Mateus is Pisces.

And Zodiac, has no Zodiac sign. Or rather, encompasses all. Or perhaps a thirteenth?



Now, the funny thing here, is the Latin name of Ophiuchus is Serpentarius, the thirteenth Zodiac sign in FFT. The only boss that you can "learn" Zodiac from is the Lucavi of Serpentarius (called Elidibs, but that was based on the wizard who used it). Odd, neh?

So perhaps all of these summons are the Lucavi (including the lost six Lucavi) from FFT. Anyone who has played FFT therefore feels that they know and love these summons.



Really weird how easily I twisted your words around, neh?

 

[Zeromus_X]

Yeah, I think I posted a link to it before.

Zeromus and X-Death are Summons. I'm getting this game.

Edit: Or Exodus, whatever you want to call him.

 

[Spec Highwind]

WTF???? CHAOS, XDEATH AND ZEROMUS???

er... how much time do I have to wait here in Europe?



I want Shiva, Ifrit and Bahamut :S

 

[Zeromus_X]

Heh, well, they'll be airships at least.

Still...final bosses as summons. *drools*

 

[Phoenix Flame]

OMG...this game is going to be friggin awesome! Thank you for posting this thread!
