This thread is mostly me just being silly... it's hard to fairly compare characters across games. However, go ahead and post something here if you feel you have something interesting to say.

So onward with the question... who is the most overpowered playable character in a Squaresoft game? By overpowered, I mean relative to other characters/enemies in his/her game. Also, note that I'm not including temporary playable characters (Leo, Sephiroth, Beatrix) because they're obviously amazing and temporary for a reason.

The options are...

1) Orlandu (FFT) - I don't think this man needs an introduction. He's the weapon-breaking, life-draining, faster-than-a-ninja, more-HP-than-a-knight, equips-any-sword-in-the-game Holy Swordsman who can beat almost any mission in the game solo with ease.

2) Squall (FF8) - Aura + Lionheart = HOW many 9's??? About the only thing your other characters are good for is sitting around making sure Squall remains hasted/auraed.

3) The Dog (Secret of Evermore) - An interesting candidate? Think about it... in its final form, the dog deals 1500+ damage with charged attacks (while the boy is doing about 300), has awesome range, flies, runs insanely quickly, and has defense through the roof. The boy's only job is to keep it energized/healed.

4) Amarant (FF9) - He may not be obviously broken, but he is amazing anyhow. Good attack and magic power, access to really good abilities, can cast Auto-Life for very little MP, and if MP ever becomes an issue for your party, he can restore it (even his own) and get HP back at the same time!

5) Other? What do you think?
