A young man who appears in the tales from another world, where he hailed from the village of Lix and was involved in the war of the Crystals. His father's last wish was for Bartz to travel the world, and thus he roams, from one land to the next with his chocobo, Boko. In the course of this wandering, he sees a meteorite fall from the sky and strike Tycoon. Following its path, he meets the princess Lenna, and Galuf, an old man who has lost his memories. This is how his true adventure begins. Using the skills that his father, Dorgann, passed on to him, he defeated many strong foes...though he cannot defeat his childhood fear of heights so easily.
