Ritz Malheur

Ritz Malheur is the primary female character in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. Her hair is naturally white, but she dyes it red. Because of how she is teased about her hair color in the real world, Ritz has a strong desire to keep the world as it is. Although she helps Marche Radiuju on a number of occasions, Marche makes significant progress toward reverting the world to normal, and Ritz attacks him in order to prevent this. Defeated, she agrees not to interfere in Marche's attempts to convince Mewt he no longer needs the world of Ivalice. Just before the world reverts, her Viera comrade Shara tells her that white hair is considered a blessing by the Vieras, thus giving Ritz a more favorable view of her real world self.
