Galuf's CollectaCard
Galuf appears as an unlockable character, and is obtained by collecting Silver Crystal Shards. His appearance is based off one of his artworks by Yoshitaka Amano, in which he dons gauntlets on his arms as opposed to his red gloves.
Galuf is an excellent choice for both field and battle stages, as he can take damage for the party while also increasing their HP and stamina, but can also be effective in battles thanks to his high strength, and that he is one of the few characters that can naturally summon the Knights of the Round, which is the most powerful summon in the game. Keep in mind that boosting Galuf's strength comes at the cost of expending the party's overall HP gauge, so choose strategically as to what Galuf's setup should prioritise.

Final Fantasy Record Keeper
Template:Sideicon
A seasoned warrior who's lost almost all memory of the past. In fact, he was one of the four Warriors of Dawn who sealed away the dreaded Exdeath. Still animated by a drive to protect the Crystals, he joins Bartz's party on their journey.
Official description.
Galuf is a playable character who can be recruited as the First Time Reward for completing Desert of Shifting Sands on Classic difficulty in the FF V realm of the core dungeons. He could also be recruited during the Challenge Event Big Bridge Showdown as the First Time Reward for completing the event's stage Desert of Shifting Sands on Classic difficulty, the same way as it is done in the base game. He was also available in Successors of the Dawn and The Malice Within.
- Assessment
Galuf is Amnesic Warrior, whose combat role is Physical Attack.
As a typical Monk, Galuf boasts high HP, Attack, Defense, and Speed stats, while his Magic, Resistance, and Mind stats are average and remain balanced as he develops. As such, his best use is as an attack unit. What he doesn't pound into a pulp with his fists will almost certainly be smashed with a hammer or carved with a dagger. Galuf was the first Monk able to wield three weapon types and the first to wield hammers, but the hammer group is somewhat rare in typical gameplay.

3★ - No. 0183: An old warrior from another world who appears in the tales of the Crystals. He first met Bartz and his allies in the aftermath of a meteorite strike. At that time, he had no memory of his identity, save his own name and his duty to protect the Crystals. As he journeys with the others, though, he recalls more and more of his past life.

And there, he had been one of the four Warriors of Dawn, who sealed the warlock Exdeath in the past after a desperate struggle.4★ - No. 0184: An old warrior from another world who appears in the tales of the Crystals.

Unable to defeat Exdeath in a contest of strength, the Warriors had little choice but to seal him in the First World. Galuf has been haunted ever since by the fear that he left another world infected with the seeds of destruction. His love for peace and for his comrades is beyond compare, and inspires him to take on Exdeath in one-on-one combat, in order to save Bartz and the other Warriors of Light in the Great Forest of Moore.5★ - No. 0371: An old warrior from another world who appears in the tales of the Crystals.
