I couldn't finish 'em. Looks like this's gonna get complicated.
I hope to be as great a War-chief as my brother.
War-chief Supinelu is a garif in Final Fantasy XII. He is first encountered as a Garif Warrior (ガリフ族の戦士, Garifu-zoku no Senshi?) in the Ozmone Plain as an ally NPC. He then allows the party to enter Jahara. He also appears in Trial Mode in the Zodiac versions. In Stage 52 he aids the party in the battle against Catoblepas. In Stage 53 he is is considered a foe.
Story
Edit
Supinelu was just a lowly warrior in his tribe, and his brother Kadalu was the respected and revered War-chief in Jahara. Supinelu believed he was better than his brother, and ventured to the Zertinan Caverns to prove this. He aims to slay the fearful Catoblepas, a Mark that many had tried to kill to no avail.
Catoblepas proved to be more powerful than he had expected, and Supinelu was sure his life would end in its hands. His brother Kadalu came to his rescue, but his leg was severely injured. From that day on, Kadalu had to cease being the War-chief, and Supinelu was placed in his stead. He brought himself into believing that the War-chief title was placed on him as a punishment. As to not shame his brother, Supinelu would train every day at the Ozmone Plain with one aim in mind—to slay the Catoblepas.
Vaan and the party arrive at the Ozmone Plain on their way to Jahara. While in training, Supinelu spots the party defeat the monsters in the plains, and admires their fighting skills. Meeting the party at the village's gate and hearing the reasons for their visit, he allows them to enter to meet the Great-chief Uball-Ka.
Supinelu places a bill on the Hunt Noticeboard for a witness to his fight against the Catoblepas. He is surprised Vaan applies for the bill, and requests they witness his fight and bring his body home should he die. Instead of being mere witnesses, Vaan and the party assist in the killing of the Catoblepas. Feeling deeply in gratitude, Supinelu realizes that all his actions had only resulted in his betterment and gains the confidence to lead the warriors again.
GameplayEdit
Jaya Stick Edit
Upon arriving at Jahara, the player must talk to garif until they receive a Jaya Stick from high-chief Zayalu in Lull of the Land area. The player should next talk to Supinelu in the west exit and choose first option twice to be allowed to see the elder. By doing this Jaya Stick is taken from the inventory and given to Supinelu, allowing the party to pass and meet the elder.
However, the player can sell the Jaya Stick for 500 gil and be let through. If the player gives Jaya Stick to Supinelu they will eventually get Bowgun (Recurve Crossbow in the Zodiac versions) and Onion Bolts. If they sold it, they will obtain Killer Bow and Onion Arrows instead.
