1. intro

hey this is the first tim i've made a full game guide so please be patient with it.  Final fantasy 6 is set 1000 years after the war of the magi.  This was a war that had almost destroyed the world.  After this war teh power of magic had dissappered and the Espers left the world for their own.  Now an empire has risen and is trying to revive the power of magic.  but what are they really trying to do?

2.characters

The qoutes are from the gameplay which describes the character as you meet them for the first time in the game.  The rest is general info about the character that i've found out.  Also you can name most characters in teh game, but i'll keep the names the same to stop confusion.

Terra
'A mysterious young woman, born with the gift of magic, and enslaved by the Gesthalian Empire...'
Terra is the first cahracter that you get to name and control.  She is half esper and half human, which allows her to get the power of magic naturaly.  she was controled by the empire using a slave crown which means that she was under their complete control and had to do their bidding.  Her Class is 'Magitek Elite'.  As she levels up she can learn new magic abilities.

Locke
'A treasure hunter and trail worn traveler, searching the world over for for relics of the past...'
Locke hates to be called a thief and gets really annoyed at any one who calls him one and corrects them, calling his self a treasure hunter.  Locke failed someone in the past who he really loved, so at every chance he gets he tries to make it up by vowing to protect the female characters.  He serves as a go between with the returners, and underground resistance, and Figaro, a king who have 'sided' with the empire.  Locke's class is a 'Thief' which enables him to steal stuff while in battle.

Edgar
'The young king of Figaro castle, an imperial ally, and champion of the technological revolution...'
Edgar pretends to be an ally with the Empire but is really in favour of the returners.  He has a twin brother who had became the king once the previous king of figaro had died.  As a master of technology his class is 'Machinst'.  this allows him to use tools in battle such as auto crossbow.

Sabin
'Edgars twin brother, who traded the throne for his own freedom...'
Sabin left figaro castle shortly after becoming king while he was very young.  he trained under master duncan who had recently died.  Sabin is a 'Monk' and fights with his fists.  As a @monk' he can use blizt's and deal loads of damage on opponents.

Shadow
'He comes and goes like the wind, swears allegance to no-one, hidden behind his wintery gaze lies a face known to none who live...'
Shadow is a ninja who joins your partty at certain times and leaves your party any tim that he wants.  His home town is Thamalsa.  When you see him in figaro (if you do see him that is)  Edgar claims that he would kill his own best friend for the right price.  he is never seen with out the mask on or with his dog, Intercepter.  As a @ninja' he can throw weapons and scrolls, which have varying effects and damage.

3. abilities

here are the abilities, an explanation on how to use them, what they do and who can use them.

Magic
At the start of the game only Terra can use this abillity.  It allows you to use different elements and attacks.  There are three types of magic. (B) Black, which deals damage on who ever it is cast upon. An example is Fire, which does low level fire damage.  The next type is (W) White, which cures the target.  an example is Cure which restores a low amount of HP.  The final type is (E) effect which does various effects.  One example is Float, which makes the target float, avoiding all earth type abilities/spells.  to use this you open up the Magic command in battle select a spell and press (R) to select all on one side of the field, or just do the same as ann attack.

Steal
Only Locke can ever use this command.  it allows you to take an item of an opponent for free.  to use it select it and choose a target, you will then try to steal an item.

Tools
Edgar can use tols that you have purchased.  they all have varying effects.  to use them open up the tool menu, select a tool and select you target.

sabin can use a technique called blitz.  these have varing effect, but mostky they do damage.  to use a blitzz you select blitz then put in a combonation and then presa (A).  the combos are:

Narshe

After the introduction about the war of the magi you will be in control of three characters.  these are Biggs, Wedge and ????? (Terra).  These characters are in Magitek armour.

when fighting use the following battle stratergy: Biggs and wedge should use Fire Beam. ????? should use Magitek missile.  Magitek missile should do around 450 damage to your opponents which is extremly good at the level that your at when you start the game.

Go forwards to get involved in your first battle.  keep on heading foward and you'll reach the second Town Scene.  In the first scene you should of fought these in the same order:

1. Guard x2
2. Silver lobo x2
3. Guard x2
4. silver lobo x1 guard x1

Once youve entered the second scene keep on heading foward to get into another battle.  you should fight:

1. megadoloth x2  guard x2

keep on heading forward into the mines

Narshe Mines

Head foward then when you see a blue star like light go up to it and save.  You also get an option to read about save points so if you want you can read about them there.  Carry on through the cave following the path around and you'll arrive at a gate.  Here you'll face your first boos battle of the game.  it's called Ymir.

Tactics

To kill this use you usual battle tactics.  Biggs/wedge Fire Beam, ????? Magitek missile, healing when needed by using ?????'s Magic -> Cure.  When he goes into his shell what ever you do DO NOT attack him, instead press Left on your D-Pad to get up a new command which is defence.  If you attack his shell then he use's mega volt which does large amout of damage to all party members.  You should have it dead in about 4-5 rounds.

Once this guy is dead carry on through to the next Room in the cave.  In here you'll find a monster frozen in ice.  lucky for you, you don't have to fight it.  as you approach it the battle scene starts up but instead a conversation happens.
