Quinten is a character in Final Fantasy XVI. He is the owner of an inn of Lostwing, a town of Sanbreque and a friend of Cidolfus Telamon's.
History[]
Before moving to Lostwing, Quinten was a judiciary of the Holy Empire of Sanbreque. He worked to bring corrupt government officials to justice through the courts, with the aid of a single ally referred to as the Lord Chief Justice. They were successful in several cases but Quinten eventually discovered that his ally harbored a dark secret.
After discovering that the Lord Chief Justice secretly hunted Bearers for sport and that his support was a facade to keep negative attention off of himself, Quinten attempted to file suit against him. The Lord Chief Justice responded to the accusations by ordering the murder of Quinten's entire family and ultimately saw no punishment for his crimes.
Quinten now robbed of his loved ones and livelihood became disillusioned with the court and set out to track down the Lord Chief Justice's servants and slit each of their throats. He was unable to get to the well protected Lord Chief Justice himself and decided he would need an army to do so.
Quinten then settled in Lostwing and began recruiting like minded individuals to rally behind him and his quest for vengeance.
