    No. You don't make a list of elemental summons that includes ifrit and ramuh but excludes shiva. It would become a huge "WTF SE?" moment, especially given the emphasis on fanservice.

    I seriously don't get this obsession with Siren. It started when the collector's edition box art was published, making people ask "who might that be" and snowballed from there (yes, I've been around that long to have witnessed this), but that has since turned out to be Garuda.

    All the uses of the term "siren" in-game have not only been more mundane, but notably plural. If anything the sirens of yore, as supposedly slewn by Mistbeard decades ago, would be a class of the Sahagin tribe.

    If you have to assign where our talent for the Echo came from, it is most logically the Twelve, or more specifically, Althyk the Keeper (of time and space).

    On the poster there is:

    Odin riding Sleipnir in the bottom middle, Leviathan bottom left(our left and right), Garuda middle left, ifrit top left. Ramuh bottom right, Titan middle right, Shiva Top right.

    I zoomed in on the picture and noticed two reasons shes Shiva and not Siren.

    1. No Face paint or markings of anykind.
    2. She has ears Siren doesnt have ears or rather her head wings are her ears?

    Edit:



    Or are they even ears they could just be ice o,O';;

    I think the painting technique is just different from concept art gives that impression is ice but as you can see the green-ish feathers on her head reach up to Bahamut's wing ....i really don't mind if it is Shiva tho lol :P not arguing here bcuz i like one more than other , but i rather Shiva be a Hawttie like FFX's . At first when i saw Siren's art i was confused why SE would add another feathery female prime before Shiva
