It's time for us to delve into the lore of Final Fantasy X, and after first looking at Tidus, we're now moving onto one of the supporting cast with Auron's origins.

Auron's role in Final Fantasy 10 is rather different from the other protagonists, as he's essentially a second generation hero, having previously travelled with Braska and Jecht on their pilgrimage to defeat Sin.

After his confrontation with Yunalesca went sour, Auron chose to stay true to his vows to both Braska and Jecht, looking after their children (Yuna and Tidus) until the time was right for them to finally defeat Sin and end Spira's suffering.

Auron often chose to stay in the background throughout much of this, but every now and then he would offer rousing speeches such as his classic "now is the time" speech against Yunalesca.

We hope you enjoy! Be sure to let us know which character you'd like us to focus on next!

  • We had a great time pulling this video together! Auron is such an awesome character, and of course, it meant we could delve more into Braska's calm! Hopefully you all enjoyed it! ~Darryl/Lauren

    Auron is the MVP of FFX. He could’ve spoiled the whole game by telling us everything but instead, like Yuna and Tidus, he gave a fragment of the story and allowed us to experienced the story for ourselves.

    'Now, this is it! Now is the time to choose! Die and be free of pain, or live and fight your sorrow! Now is the time to shape your stories! Your fate is in your hands!'

    Auron is soooo badass. He crawled all the way to bevelle with his injuries and still kept his promise to Braska and Jecht even after death.

    “Legendary guardian? I was just a boy. A boy about your age, actually. I wanted to change the world, too. But I changed nothing. That is my story.” -Auron

    The revelation that he was unsent when I first played it only made me think, "you let me waste phoenix downs on you... bastard."
  • @joadore2479
    Honestly instead of X-3 or whatever they are planning. They should just do a prequel with Jecht, Auron, and Braska
  • @Mystrohan
    Watching the pyrefly-memory Auron roar his grief at Yunalesca- with the real one standing behind the vision, having to literally relive his failure - was arguably one of the entire Final Fantasy franchise's most poignant moments.

    I always loved Auron. Once he joined the team, I would always keep him in the active party. He's a great damage dealer as well as a good tank. Not to mention his calm stoic personality just makes him so likable. I love to see a prequel game that's about his journey with Jecht and Braska.
  • @rossadams9203
    Probably my second favorite final fantasy character ever. "Although he was not the man I once knew, Kinoc was still my friend Seymour. You will pay for his death!" Auron's delivery of that line got me so pumped for that fight with Seymour.
  • @Thefruitspeaks
    Auron is a character that we still love. He's the kind of person/personality you would want to have in your life. Great video and storytelling!
  • "Though he was not the man I once knew, Kinoc was still my friend, Seymour! You will pay for his death!" Auron's Strength has increased

    "We will protect Yuna... From EVERYONE! Even a Maester."
  • @Kabra2012
    "Relatable" is a good word for Auron. From the outside, he almost looks like an untouchable standard of badassery and poise - but he still shows moments of humanity, inner conflict, regret, and passion. He takes on that sensei role in the group out of duty and necessity, but he is still a layered, emotionally-driven human being underneath it all.

    Hades: " I am the lord of the dead." Auron: "No wonder no one wants to die." Best roast ever...
  • @AuronnBE
    It's 2018 and people still make these deep dive Auron-video's, damn, I love it!
  • @armadeus8711
    Auron is my favourite FF character, not only do I like his demeanor and how he acts (constantly takes shots at other characters,, his speech before Yunalesca) and design, but I really loved his story. How it bases around wanting to keep the promise he made to his friend, becoming unsent so he could fulfill that promise, that just made his death even more heartwarming to me, not only could he rest after 10 more years of living, he could fulfilling the promise he made 10 years prior, and created a better future for Spira. He always says "This is your story" and that has always inspired me to live my life how I want, and I think many other people would feel the same. Plus he has one the best themes in all of FF in my opinion, he wields a massive blade, one of his overdrives creates a tornado, his "break" abilities are really useful, and his celestial weapon-the masamune-Is badass, just like him.

    I think you forgot the part when he cheers Yuna, Rikku and Paine and give them some advice in their fight against Vegnagun in the Farplane Core along with Jetch XD.
