Lulu

Another of Yuna's guardians, a Black Mage that uses dolls.

Lulu grew up with Yuna in Besaid. She and Wakka think of Yuna as a younger sister. Lulu's stoic and self-possessed nature makes her seem insensitive at times. She specializes in the art of Black Magic, using various dolls to help cast powerful spells. She’s spent the last while trying to convince Wakka to let Chappu go, but he won’t listen. She is also instrumental in helping Tidus learn the ropes of Spira.

Appearance
Lulu deviates from the traditional Black Mage look like that of Vivi Orunitia. She is instead dressed in an outlandish black dress, with fur lining, and a huge collection of interlocking belts below the waist. She also wears several accessories such as some necklaces and earrings. Her hair is tied up in a knot at the top. Her manner of dress deviates completely from that of other residents of the tropical isle, and the cultural distiction implied by her clothing and appearance are never explained. The only citizen of Spira who looks or dresses anything like her is Paine, who is introduced in Final Fantasy X-2.

Story
Lulu — born on the island of Besaid, where she grew up with Wakka, Yuna and Wakka's younger brother, Chappu — is often stern and scathing (particularly to Wakka), and doesn't smile very often. However, she is nonetheless kind-hearted and caring toward others. She is also highly intelligent, and is one of the few Yevonites who easily questions the Yevon religion on objective terms. Nonetheless, she is still shaken by the hypocrisy of the Yevon order, though she adjusts to this reality faster than some of the other former believers in her party. Before becoming a guardian to Yuna, Lulu guarded two previous summoners whose pilgrimages abruptly ended before reaching the Zanarkand Ruins. The pilgrimage of Father Zuke — the second summoner she served as guardian to — ended in the Calm Lands, as he chose not to continue his pilgrimage, a decision many summoners make when they reach those plains. The pilgrimage of the first summoner Lulu guarded, Lady Ginnem, ended only a short distance beyond that. Lady Ginnem's journey to the Final Aeon was cut short by her unfortunate death in the Cavern of the Stolen Fayth, taking place during an attempt to acquire the aeon Yojimbo. This event still troubles Lulu's memories, but when Yuna and company detour to the valley where the cave is located, Lulu decides to follow and face her painful memories. At the back of the cave, the group meets the unsent form of Lady Ginnem, the human personality she once held all but completely buried in enmity for the living. Lulu felt that she must fulfill a last duty to Ginnem as a guardian in ensuring that her spirit would depart to rest peacefully on the Farplane. After fighting and defeating Yojimbo — the aeon having been summoned by Ginnem — Ginnem's spirit departs for the Farplane.

Prior to his death at the hands of Sin, Lulu had been romantically involved with Wakka's younger brother, Chappu, and his passing left a deep wound in Lulu's heart. However, Wakka and Lulu find love for one another, and six months after the ending of Final Fantasy X, are wed to one another. In Final Fantasy X-2 Lulu is pregnant with — and gives birth to — Wakka's child, a boy whom Wakka names "Vidina" (the Al Bhed word for "future").

Lulu in Battle
Lulu is a Black Mage, and thus her physical attacks are initially weaker than the other characters. Instead, she relies on magic attacks and her weapons consist of Dolls which are based on classic Final Fantasy creatures: Mog, Cait Sith, Moomba, Cactuar Blue Alien.

Lulu's Overdrive is called Fury. It casts a barrage of spells on the target. To successfully execute Fury, the Right Analog Stick must be rotated 360 degrees. More spins add more castings. Mostly all of the Black Magic spells can be cast. These spells cannot be evaded, protected against, or prevented in any way and do not cost MP, but do significantly less damage than a normal casting of the same spell. Lulu cannot cast a spell with Fury, until she learns it in the Sphere Grid.
