Balthier Bunansa is one of the main characters from Final Fantasy XII. He's considered by many to be the best character in the game. Balthier proved to be more successful than Vaan in the Summer 2007 Contest, as he and Ada Wong defeated Frank West and Jade Curtiss in round one. In round 2, he finished last against Dante, Amaterasu, and Ada. In the Summer 2008 Contest, Balthier (along with Big Daddy) lost to Gordon Freeman and Scorpion.
