Oh, shut up and help me remodel the Balthier (Opera Omnia) page!
A youthful sky pirate deeply attached to the wide blue yonder who roams the world with his partner, Fran. In an unexpected turn of events, he meets Vaan and gets caught up in a quest to restore Dalmasca. Although a man of charm and wit, he becomes highly sensitive when people bring up his past or father.
Description
Balthier is a playable character in Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia who can be recruited during the Lost Chapter Thieves of the Sky.

He wears two crossed, gold-buckled belts with two pouches attached to either side and a collection of brightly colored rings and bracelets on his left hand, and has a set of earrings in both ears.
Personality
Story
Lost Chapter: Thieves of the Sky
Balthier enters through the Ruins of Deserta. He meets Vaan in the party led by Mog and introduces himself as the "leading man of this little story". He claims to be hunting for treasure in the Torsions and declines to join such a large band of strangers. Though he is intrigued that the party has an airship—having been separated from his own, and his partner—he remains on his own for a while longer.
He meets up with the party again after he notices Rem among them, but is disturbed by how young she is, and even more so when she tells him she was already a soldier on her homeworld. He derisively hopes Mog has a good reason for recruiting so many children. Rem, Sazh, and Vaan persuade him into joining, and Balthier finally does on the understanding that he's only there to seek out treasure.
Having obtained a sufficiently valuable piece of armor, Balthier prepares to leave the party. Y'shtola senses that Balthier is more concerned with finding his lost partner than material gains. He concedes, as it's fitting for the leading man to occasionally be heroic.
Act 2, Ch. 7: Respite's Authenticity
Sephiroth seizes Materia's throne and declares himself a god of the world of respite. As the warriors endeavor to stop him, they find themselves approaching a military installation resembling the Lucian countryside fortresses commandeered by Niflheim from Noctis's world. Vayne awaits them at the entrance and questions the integrity of Noctis's resolve, given the memories he lacks. Ignis challenges Vayne to a fight to demonstrate Noctis's strength and Balthier joins Noctis and Ignis. Vayne decides that Noctis is strong in spite of his lost memories because he can depend on his comrades. He envies Noctis for it before retreating through a torsion.
The warriors defeat Sephiroth and restore Materia to her throne. As they depart Materia's chambers, they explore the ruins of a city resembling Insomnia where they had battled Sephiroth before. Noctis pulls Balthier, Prompto, Ignis, Rinoa, and Squall aside to try to decipher Vayne's intentions and his particular interest in him. Balthier reminds Noctis that Vayne envied Noctis's strong bonds of friendship, something he lacked even as he lusted for power over Archadia as its new emperor. He suggests that Vayne might see some aspect of the person he wished to be within Noctis, an observation that Rinoa concurs with.
