CollectaCard
Bartz is a default playable character. If the player did not select him among their party of four, he can later be unlocked by collecting Red Crystal Shards.
Bartz loses several treasure boosting skills in favor of increasing the parties luck and stamina in field stages. The player can choose to boost his already solid agility, focus on restoring the team's HP, or place emphasis on supporting the Chocobo during Feature Drive. A downside is that his limit is weakened due to losing out on his ability to boost his own Luck, but otherwise, Bartz is a jack-off-all-trades hero in Field Music Sequences.
His Limit, Master Mime, functions the same as before, dealing damage to boss-type enemies in direct proportion to Strength, Magic and Luck.

He plays a fairly large role in the story. Throughout the game, he travels steadfastly with his chocobo companion, Boko.

- Who's Who
- Bartz
- CV: Jason Spisak / Soichiro Hoshi
- Age in Grymoire: 20
- Notes: Travels with a chocobo / Believes helping strangers is just what you do / Tied by fate to someone not-so-great
- Road Warrior
- Wherever the wind blows, there you will find Bartz and his constant companion, Boko. Sometimes treasure hunter, sometimes monster hunter, sometimes champion of justice—whatever Bartz is up to today, you know it'll be for the good of thos in need. No matter how difficult the challenge, he'll solve it with style and aplomb before disappearing into the sunset.
- Bartz's quest to explore the world isn't mere fancy, but rather the dying wish of his father.
- Carefree
- Nothing can contain Bartz's boundless enthusiasm and thirst for adventure. With a sack over his shoulder and a song in his heart, he travels from place to place, a smile on his lips as he faces even the most hopeless of situations. He can even match the ever-exuberant Rikku's excitement levels, and that's no easy feat.
- Perhaps Bartz has doubts and worries like anyone else, and never lets them show. Or...maybe he really is just that carefree. But once Bartz decides to involve himself in something, he'll see it through to the end. "Never give up" is his motto, and he never has.
