Sorbet (Final Fantasy XII)

Sorbet (ソルベ) is a Moogle from Final Fantasy XII, and the brother of Montblanc, which makes him one of the Six Moogle Siblings. A bit clumsy, Sorbet is involved with one of the Hunts that Vaan participated in.

Story
Sorbet runs one of the Moogling stations in Rabanastre. He was entrusted with a key that he lost while eating a sweet and tripping over himself, with both items landing in entrance to the Garamsythe Waterway, where the White Mousse ingested them. Sorbet soon petitioned a hunt for the mutant to his brother, meeting the playable party as a result.

After the Flan was slain, Sorbet reacquired the key and repaired it for the party so that he could access different parts of the Garamsythe Waterway. Sorbet would later meet party with Vaan again when he learns that Yiazmat has been slain.

Sorbet appears at the second statue next to the journal at the upper screen after Montblanc. He wears his Final Fantasy XII outfit and sits with Horne.

In the Side Story


At Chapter 4: Hurdy Heads for the Hills, Hurdy mentions that whenever Sorbet saves up enough gil, he disappears on long, meandering trips. Sorbet gave advice to Hurdy (which he also follows himself) that he will be carefree and happy wherever the journey leads him. He also requested something sweet from Hurdy.

Dive II Hunt: Sorbet's Great Adventure
Sorbet is the starring character in the MySpace flash game Dive II Hunt: Sorbet's Great Adventure. The Square Enix title features original artwork by Ryōma Itō. In the game, Sorbet has to swim around collecting items in the hope of becoming the "Hunter Dive Master". While grabbing Gil and other items, players must watch out for enemies and keep an eye on Sorbet's oxygen levels.

At the beginning of the game, Sorbet immediately meets Frappe, the tournament receptionist. She asked Sorbet to sign in, and when he did, Sorbet said he did not know what the tournament was about. After he was explained that the tournament is to see who gets to be the "Hunter Dive Master", he decided to be the Hunter Dive Master.

The game also could be played at the Japanese and North American version of the Square Enix Members website, but only to logged-in users.
