Rinoa Heartilly


The popular personailty trait among Final Fantasy VIII's characters is that we all seem to know one of them personally, Rinoa is no exception. She's the spirited young debutant who's fed up with playing by her father's rules and finally lashes out in an eruptive way by joining a rebel band. She's got a lot of heart though, she doesn't necessarily pretend to be any tougher than she is, and you have to admit, Angelo is very cool. In all, I like Rinoa, she tries to do the right thing which often gets her into more trouble than she could ever have bargained for, but then, haven't we all? She's easy to identify with, she's tired of being "oppressed" and wants to strike out on her own to prove to everyone that she's got a mind and spirit of her own. In all, my fourth favorite of the main cast.

Angel Wing
This skill is one I rarely use. You completely lose control of Rinoa even if she dies and is revived she's still under the computer's control. She only casts magic spells, which can work against you if your enemy absorbs or nullifies certain magics, but it doesn't come from what you've stocked. All in all, Angelo is the better of Rinoa's two limit skills.
