Talon crew

The Talon Crew aboard the Talon2.

The Talon crew (ステスロス搭乗員, Sutesurosu Toujouin?) are the original crew members of the Talon before it was sealed in the Palace. After Sol separated the 13 Talon units, the crew stayed in Pureland.

Crew

Buzi, the Sage

One of the original Talon crew, the Sage Buzi carries useful potions. He is found in Mt. Hasbid, and joins after Guha's defeat. He can free Dahak from the curse Xagor place upon him, which bound it to the Southwest Ruins. After the Talon is destroyed, Buzi survives the crash and witnesses the party's fight against Jorgandr. After a victorious battle, Buzi temporarily stays in Cape Frost, where he can be re-recruited again when Arthur returns in the Talon2.

Behind the scenes

Found within the game's data, there are four items named after the crew members. Players may have been able to "install" the crew members like units in an earlier version of the game, but this was removed in the final version.

Etymology

Eitar, Juba and Buzi's Japanese names are Atal, Zkauba and Barzai, all of which are references to H.P Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos.
