My Empire of Dirt —Astos from FF

Astos from the game Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin by Team Ninja, Koei and Square enix.

I love playing FF’s Dissidia Opera Omnia game and Astos just debuted. He’s hype because of his ridiculous amount of damage output. I was intrigued by his chapter story— loved his creepy theme music— and so decided to read about his character and game.

Talk about tragic 😭 the flashback after his battle was emotional and sad... even to someone who hadn’t played the game. So naturally I really like him lol 😂

His theme is perfect for viewing this piece:

And for the hell of it, because it’s gorgeous song:

Summary:

One minute, Jack, Jed, and Ash (three friends), are hanging out together. The next, they wake up in a world of fantasy without their memories. They vaguely know they're friends, know their own names, but Jack is the only one who wakes up with conviction—something clear.

Jack only knows one thing: He wants to kill Chaos—needs to. It's not a hope or a dream. It's like a hunger—a thirst.

After storming the Shrine of Chaos, Jack and his friends enter the last room of the shrine, just where his enemy sits on a throne.
