Edge (The After Years party member)

Edge is a playable character in Final Fantasy IV: The After Years. He has decent all-around stats aside from low Spirit, with his Speed again being his greatest stat. He can serve both as a physical attacker and as a more powerful mage with Ninjutsu. He has access to many Band abilities with other characters and the other Ninjas. His variety of weapons and armor has improved since the original game. Edge is fast and a decent character all-around, but excels only in speed.
