Kelger Vlondett
From Final Fantasy Wiki
Kelger Vlondett, originally romanized Kelgar also romanized Kelga or Kelgore (ケルガー・ヴロンデット Kerugā Vurondetto), is a non-player character in Final Fantasy V. He is one of the original Warriors of Dawn along with Galuf, Dorgann, and Xezat. He is a werewolf from the town of Quelb and the town's leader. Galuf, along with Bartz, Lenna, and Faris, visit the town and Kelger immediately challenges Bartz to a fight, believing him to work for Exdeath. Kelger initiates his "Lupine Attack" but is defeated by a powerful blow that sends him through a door and into the next room by Bartz. After the fact, it is learned that Bartz learned how to counter it from his father, Dorgann. Also while recovering, Kelger learns the party's real motives for coming to Quelb and grants them passage through his town so that they can visit Drakenvale to the north. Later, when the party is in Castle Exdeath, Kelger, already weak and dying, sacrifices his life energy so that the party can see through the illusion spell cast up by Exdeath. He is the last of the Warriors of Dawn to die.
[edit] Trivia
- In the Dawn of Souls and 20th Anniversary remakes of the original Final Fantasy, Kelga is one of the automatic names the player can choose for the Thief job.
- Although Kelger Vlondett was a non-playable character, he can be considered the first hero of the Beast Archtype in the Final Fantasy series. The Beast Archtype would be repeated again with future characters Umaro, Red XIII, Freya Crescent, Kimahri Ronso, and Fran.
