Cid Randell

Judgemaster Cid is Mewt Randell's father from Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, and in the fantasy world of Ivalice, he is the Judgemaster, leader of the Judges that enfore Ivalice's laws. While he can perform all of the duties of a normal judge, he also has the power to issue Advanced Laws, which can result in a Red Card for a character that takes any action forbidden by the Advanced Law. Initially, Cid is hostile toward Marche Radiuju's attempts to revert the world to normal, but upon seeing a vision of the real world following the defeat of Exodus, Cid realizes that his actions are not in Mewt's best interests and resigns from the palace. Cid then helps Marche deal with Llednar Twem, a dark version of Mewt created by Queen Remedi, finally defeating him by wielding one of Ezel Berbier's Anti-Laws against him to enable Marche to harm him.

Although Cid is quite powerful, he has several limits. Despite his ability to use Advanced Laws, he is unable to prevent Ezel Berbier from nullify those laws with an Anti-Law. In addition, Cid cannot intervene in a battle except to enforce the law, as is made clear when Marche destroys the Exodus Fruit while Cid can only stand aside and wait in case Marche were to break a law doing so. Finally, Cid cannot stop the characters from changing the laws with Law Cards, or in the case of the Li-Grim by using its Lawshift ability.
