A Part, and yet Apart

[PogueX]

Alphinaud views the warrior of light as his own hitman. Whose goal is to create a united Eorzean under a dictatorship. I like how he tries to convince the alliance to save Ishgard from Vishap only to be shot down by Merlwyb that the companies responsibilities are to their own nations, then the alliance, then everything else. Then, soon after that he gets mad at Aerymic for Ishgards neutral policy knowing full well that Aerymic has no say in their policies.


i actually thought that Alphinaud would be the scion traitor but it turned out to be someone else, cause when your trying to create Eorzean under one banner to me that sounds like a Garlean Empire conspiracy,

I also remember Minfilla mentioning that Alphinaud is a scion in training still! So in other words, a guy who isn't even an official scion has usurp all authority and is using the scions for his own personal goals

Thats Evil....that's almost Chaotic Evil!

It's lawful evil at worst actually. Kefka, Sephiroth, and Kuja were Chaotic Evil and wanted to destroy and conquer simply for the sake of it. Lawful Evil was Caius Ballad and even FF14's own Gaius van Baelsar who know what they were doing was wrong but deeped "The End Goal" to be worth the atrocities.

Alphinaud until half way into 3.0 wouldn't even fit on the spectrum because it's too Naive, Childish, and Idealistic to see even part of the situation let alone all of it. (Until Alphinaud walks in, Minfilia was doing an extremely good job at maintaining international Neutrality till he F-ed it up with the Crystal Braves.) Honestly the only good decision he made was convincing Minfilia to move the HQ to Mor Dohna, and that was as much us and Urainge talking her into it as Alphinaud going "Well she wont listen to me, time to call HER mother to talk some since into her" which is as childish of an action as it is in writing. Though locating F'lahamine was undoubtedly a good thing for Minfilia (And an answer to a long wonder question for 1.0 Ul'dahens like me) it was still a dick move of Alphinaud to use he mother as a bargaining chip to take advantage of Minfilia.

Ya know, the more I think of this, the more I realise he's my least favorite Scion as well. Tataru need to hurry up and find Thancred and Minfilia so I can see my Ul'dah peeps again.
