Quetzalcoatl
From Final Fantasy Wiki
Quetzalcoatl (ケッツクアトル, Kettsukuatoru) is a recurring summon in the Final Fantasy series. Its appearance has changed greatly since its first appearance in the relatively late Final Fantasy VIII as Quezacotl (ケツァクウァトル, Ketsakuwatoru). This aside, Quetzalcoatl always appears as a Lightning-based Summon, and as a winged creature of some sort.

[edit] Final Fantasy VIII
Quezacotl, known as Golgotha in the French translation, is one of the first two Guardian Forces available in Final Fantasy VIII. It is obtained by entering the tutorials from Squall's desk in the classroom at the very beginning of the game. If Squall does not access the tutorial before leaving Balamb Garden for the first time, Quistis will give both Quezacotl and Shiva to Squall before reaching the World Map.
Quezacotl's attack, Thunder Storm, is an Lightning-elemental attack that damages all enemies.

[edit] Etymology
Quetzalcoatl is one of the major deities in ancient Mesoamerican mythology. Quetzalcōhuātl means in the Nahuatl language "feathered serpent". Due to the many civilizations worshiping the same deity using different names for it in the span of almost 2,000 years, the exact attributes and significance of this god varies. Most stories, though, agree upon Quetzalcoatl being the god of the morning star and being known as the inventor of books, the calendar and the giver of maize to mankind. The worship of Quetzalcoatl was, in some religions, connected with human sacrifices, while in others, opposed to human sacrifices.
