Calca and Brina are playable characters in Final Fantasy IV: The After Years. They are capable of transforming into Calcabrina when using their Band abilities.

Quests[]

If Calca and Brina are brought to the battle against the final boss, the cutscene where the people pray for the party will not show people praying for the dolls, but rather showcases Luca's cutscene. The dolls share this trait with Harley and the Eblan Four.

Stats[]

Calca and Brina are statistically the worst characters in The After Years based on their own pure stat growth from leveling up. However, all of their unique equipment gives extreme stat changes to customize their combat role. For example, early on in Rydia's Tale the Warrior's Clothes boost strength and stamina while lowering intelligence and spirit, allowing the player to turn either Calca or Brina into a frontline fighter while they are in the party.

Their main stats are significantly lower than the other characters', including the lowest HP growth in the game—along with Leonora they are the only characters to have less than 4,000 HP at level 99. Between the two, Calca has higher Strength, Stamina and Intelligence, while Brina has higher Speed and Spirit. Their HP and MP growth is roughly equal, and their MP growth is average, allowing them to use their Band abilities regularly.

Equipment[]

Calca joins with a Knife and Boy's Clothes. Brina joins with a Knife and Girl's Clothes.

Despite their poor stats and abilities, Calca and Brina's major strength is their exclusive equipment. In Rydia's Tale the player can find "Clothes" equipment for them that boosts their stats, including the Clown Clothes that give a significant +20 Speed. At the end of the game in the final floors of the Depths, the enemies will rarely drop pieces of "Phase" equipment that not only have the best stats of the game, equaling or surpassing the adamant equipment and the Phase Cutter having power equal to the Ragnarok, but collectively the five pieces grant +20 to all stats. With the Phase Equipment Calca and Brina can serve as powerful physical attackers, but their random abilities make them unreliable mages. However, if Brina is equipped with Final Outfit, and Assassin's Dagger, she has a drastic +25 speed, making her faster than most characters. She is even faster if equipped the Phase Knuckles, giving her a +20 speed to her already +25 boost, giving her a +45 speed boost, giving her 92 speed by Lv 99. If given a Cat-Ear Hood, she has +5 speed, giving her 97 speed by Lv 99, making her, if equipped, one of the fastest characters in the game.

Calca and Brina are fought together in a scripted battle on-board of the Falcon upon reaching the Overworld in Rydia's Tale. Only Luca is usable with Rydia being restricted to defending as Luca refuses to let her harm the dolls.
