The Songstress (歌姫, Utahime^?) is a dressphere in Final Fantasy X-2. It is used in the first boss battle with Leblanc as a tutorial for spherechanging. It specializes inflicting statuses on enemies and buffing the party. It has no means of attacking unless afflicted with Berserk or using the Mug command, whereupon Songstress attacks an enemy with her microphone, causing a small explosion with musical notes.

AppearanceEdit

The Songstress combines the traditional Final Fantasy jobs of Bard and Dancer, the job's abilities devoted to buffing the party and debilitating foes. The Songstress dons light dancing clothes with floral sleeves and uses a microphone as a weapon. Yuna's appearance is replicated from Lenne, the spirit harnessed as the Songstress, which plays an important part in the story.

For unknown reasons, when Leblanc uses this stolen dressphere in the beginning of the game, it turns her from an exact double of Yuna in her summoner appearance into Yuna's Songstress outfit. It is not explained why this is so, as dresspheres usually simply outfit the user with unique costumes, and they otherwise retain their own physical appearance, nor is it explained how Yuna's summoner appearance is accessed. This may be because Leblanc was using Yuna's Garment Grid with Yuna's summoner considered her "default" before the Bare class was created.

CommandsEdit

Songstress has two main commands, Dance, which applies an effect to either the enemy or player party which stays in place as long as the Songstress is dancing, and Sing, which increases the player party's stats. While dancing, musical notes appear around the girl and waves of light bounce around her in a circle. While singing an upward swirl of lights and ascending musical notes appear.

AbilitiesEdit

Mastering Songstress requires 740 Ability Points. Dance and Sing cannot be accessed outside of the Songstress Dressphere because of the animations used.
