Vaan is one of the new characters introduced in Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy. Vaan
is a young man who lived on the streets of Rabanastre and dreamed of being a sky pirate. He uses a variety of
weapons and his EX Burst is
based on his Quickenings from Final Fantasy
XII.
Vaan's appearance is identical to his original Akihiko Yoshida design from Final Fantasy
XII, although he is slightly less tanned. He has blond hair and blue-gray
eyes. He wears a loose cropped open vest held together by a pendant over his
chest, which once belonged to his deceased elder brother, Reks. He wears dark pants, tucked into his knee-high steel
boots, held up by a red sash.
Vaan's first alternate outfit is named "Gunmetal Vest", and is based on Amano's
artwork. His outfit is black and gray and features a different shoulder
design, which adds snake-like shoulder pads. In this outfit he gains a tattoo on
his left shoulder. He gains a new gauntlet design as well, and his accessories
are colored green. His brother's pendant is attached to a necklace, rather than
acting as a clasp for his vest.
Vaan's second alternate outfit, "Conflicted Hero," is his design from Final Fantasy
Tactics A2, which features a shirt under his vest, gauntlets that are no
longer fingerless and cover the entirety of his wrists, slightly different knee
armor, and an ornament on his waist.
As a bonus
fourth outfit available for download, "Pirate's Garb", Vaan takes on the
garb of a more traditional sea pirate, designed by Akihiko Yoshida, the
character designer for Final Fantasy XII. Vaan wears a blue and white
coat that flares at the waist, knee-high blue boots, and a black hat with a
Jolly Roger on it.
The color of Vaan's manikin, the
Idle Sky Pirate, is Gold. Vaan encounters the Onion Knight, and
because Onion Knight is just a kid, he tries to treat him like a younger
brother, much to Onion Knight's annoyance.
After receiving his dormant crystal from Cosmos, Vaan travels with Lightning, Laguna, and
Tifa,
but they get separated when they are attacked by Kuja and Kefka, and the manikins. While on his
own, Vaan encounters and fights a brainwashed Terra before she runs off.
On the Sky
Fortress Bahamut Vaan finds Terra being confronted by Kefka over her
unwillingness to fight. Though he attempts to walk away, feeling that
interfering prematurely would worsen the situation, he takes offense to Kefka
torturing Terra and intervenes. After fighting Kefka, Vaan grabs Terra and flees
with her. Terra asks him to kill her, but Vaan refuses and explains that though
they are on opposing sides he saved her out of choice and gives her the strength
to reach her resolve of not fighting. Convincing her to go into hiding, Vaan
promises Terra to find her before fighting Chaos so she can meet Cosmos and become
one of her warriors.
After finding Laguna they find Yuna and an unconscious Tidus, after the Emperor
has kidnapped Jecht.
They cheer her up, and return to Cosmos and talk to Lightning and the Warrior of Light. After
learning of Warrior and Kain's plans, Vaan, Laguna and Yuna
decide to stay awake and join Lightning in her suicide mission to stop the
manikins.
Vaan travels with Lightning, Laguna and Yuna to the portal, reuniting with
Kain and Tifa along the way. When the six of them reach Orphan's Cradle,
Vaan talks with Yuna and Tifa, telling them he looks forward to see what the
manikins' world looks like. At the Empyreal Paradox, the three
of them, along with Laguna and Lightning, fight against Garland, the Emperor, the Cloud
of Darkness, Kefka and Ultimecia, with Vaan fighting Kefka.
Afterwards, along with Kain, they fight the manikins and close the portal,
eventually succumbing to the manikins. As Shinryu takes Cosmos and the other warriors
to the next cycle of war,
Vaan sheds his light with the others and fades away in front of the Warrior of
Light.
In "Vaan's Quest 012: A Voice to Call Back", Vaan encounters Tidus. When they
realize the other's allegiance Tidus reluctantly challenges Vaan, but asks him
about his memories. After the battle Tidus asks if Vaan knows someone called
"Jecht", and while Vaan confirms such a man is fighting for Cosmos, Tidus
departs before Vaan can explain further. Vaan, not getting Tidus's name,
describes him to Yuna as a boy his age asking about Jecht. Yuna asks if the boy
was cheerful, but Vaan replies he seemed sad, confusing Yuna about who it could
be.
Vaan plays a brief but important role in "Cecil's Quest 012: A Re-encounter
With a Close Friend" - when the two attempt to liberate a gateway, Vaan comments it would be easier to travel if
they had an airship, the mention of
the crafts sparking Cecil's memories of his home and his friendship with Kain.
During an unspecified cycle, in "Vaan's Quest ???: The Strayed Sky Pirate",
Vaan finds an odd gateway and enters it. Unable to find the exit, he is
confronted by Gabranth who tells him he is in a hell
dimension cut off from the war, and it is where discarded warriors are banished
until the gods call them back to fight again. Gabranth offers to show Vaan the
exit if he can defeat him in battle, and Vaan accepts. They fight three times,
and Gabranth keeps his word and shows Vaan the way out. Vaan asks if Gabranth
will be returning with him, but the judge declines, saying others often stumble
into the dimension and he chooses to remain behind to guide them out as he did
with Vaan.
