Online description

Her original form represents Final Fantasy XIII, while Lightning #2 is a separate playable character representing Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII.
Gameplay[]
Theatrhythm Final Fantasy[]
Lightning appears as a default playable character.
Lightning has great all-around stats and abilities, but she's ultimately outclassed by other characters that excel in their field. She's one of three characters to possess the rare ability Hero's Rime, which boosts the stats of all party members. All of her abilities cost high CP, however, so the must player must gain more experience for her, or utilize other characters that fare better with the abilities.
Her Limit Break, Omega Weapon, adds +75 to her Strength and Magic.
