Alpha is a chocobo from Final Fantasy XIV. He resembles the chocobos depicted in the Chocobo series, and especially its titular Chocobo.

History[]

Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood[]

Alpha was created by Omega, who based his design on a being from another world that had defeated an entity comparable to Omega's own power. Omega pitted Alpha against other artificially generated opponents to understand how such a feeble being could defeat such a mighty foe, but after repeating this test thousands of times it was unable to replicate the results it sought. Omega adapted its methods, and instead erased Alpha's memory and used him to lure mortal test subjects into the Interdimensional Rift to observe them in battle against powerful foes. Despite having no knowledge of his purpose, Alpha inadvertently brought the Warrior of Light and the Garlond Ironworks team into the Rift.

Alpha joined the Ironworks team, and assisted the Warrior of Light during Omega's trials with his unusual powers. Even after learning of his origins and being dismissed by Omega, Alpha refused to abandon his new friends, saving Cid and the Warrior of Light when Omega left them to die. After Omega's defeat, Alpha was given leave by Cid to explore Eorzea. Accompanied by a miniature model of Omega, Alpha can then be seen at various places throughout the world having adventures.

Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker[]

Alpha and the miniature Omega accompanied Garlond Ironworks to Sharlayan to help finalize the Ragnarok, a starship that could bring the Warrior of Light and Scions of the Seventh Dawn to the edge of the universe. After the Final Days were averted, Alpha accompanied Omega and the Warrior for Omega's desire to understand the concept of the heart by gaining an understanding from the people who survived the Final Days. Omega also wanted to learn about the Ancients. After this, Alpha and Omega resumed their travels.

Characteristics[]

FFXIV Alpha Render 03

Alpha as a member of Garlond Ironworks.

Alpha resembles a chocobo, albeit one that is far smaller than the ones found naturally in Eorzea, with a proportionally larger head and eyes. While his "deformed" appearance is considered strange, many characters find him cute, including Jessie, who planned to market toys based on his likeness. Later, after joining the Garlond Ironworks team, he is given a customized version of the Ironworks uniform to wear. He has in his possession a number of magical cards, which can produce a variety of effects when he uses them.

Behind the scenes[]

After the completion of the penultimate phase of The Omega Protocol (Ultimate) The Omega Protocol (Ultimate), Alpha would reappear, attempting to comfort the defeated Omega-F as in canon. However, Omega would absorb Alpha, having unlocked the powers of dynamis, and transform into Alpha-Omega, the final boss of the encounter.

Etymology[]

Alpha is the first letter of the Greek alphabet. It was derived from the Phoenician letter "aleph", and it is the source of the Latin and Cyrillic letter "A". In English, alpha is a noun that means "beginning" or "first (in a series)".
