Changes: Wing (term)

Revision as of 18:34, 11 June 2020

Template:Sideicon

FFIX PC Battle of Alexandria 12 — Colossal wings appear over Alexandria Castle in *Final Fantasy IX*.

A wing is an appendage with a surface that produces lift for flight and/or propulsion through the atmosphere, or through another gaseous or liquid fluid. It is an airfoil, which has a streamlined cross-sectional shape producing a useful lift to drag ratio. In many Final Fantasy titles, characters and creatures appear with real or symbolic wings.

White-feathered wings as angels are commonly depicted with are signs of good characters, while black leathery wings are signs of evil and black-feathered wings symbolize the corruption of goodness. Wings are also symbolism of the divine, representing one as a god-like being or as connected to a god.

Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-

The growth of wings is linked to the Jenova Project. Genesis Rhapsodos bears a large black wing similar to Sephiroth's over his left shoulder, while Angeal Hewley bears two white wings from his left shoulder.

The copies the two produce bear similar wings, and Genesis and Angeal retain the wings, though in different forms, when they become Genesis Avatar and Angeal Penance. Various characters interpret the symbolism of wings differently, in tying into the game's thematic elements. Cissnei considers wings a sign of freedom, which Zack Fair would symbolize with that of an angel, while Angeal and Genesis consider them the traits of a monster.

Genesis can command the feather of the wings to attack and his Black Flurry attack involves him cursing the feathers and sending them at Zack.

Final Fantasy VIII

Several sorceresses are associated with wings. Rinoa Heartilly has two angel wings on the back of her clothing, her ultimate weapon, the Shooting Star, is made of angel wings, and she grows literal wings during her Angel Wing Limit Break.

The Griever engraving on Squall's Revolver has angel wings.

In the game's introductory sequence, Squall attacks his rival, Seifer Almasy, causing a flurry of black feathers to appear. Seifer would go on to serve Ultimecia as her Sorceress Knight. Also, Adel's tomb sports angelic wing designs.

When Squall and Rinoa return to the flower field at the end, the flower petals swirling in the air transform into white feathers.

Lumina has both a metal feather adornment as part of her necklace, and feather trimming on several parts of her clothing.

Final Fantasy XV

The kings of Lucis are associated with wing motifs as per their royal arms, which each have them, and often have wing only on one side. The emblem for the kingdom of Lucis is a skull with a wing. The emblem for the Kingsglaive is a winged Bahamut, while his true form has wings made of swords and flowing lengths of fabric. Bahamut is portrayed on the cover of some editions of Cosmogony as a armored human with two black wings.

Instances of humans depicted with one angel wing refer to their status as mortals who wield divine powers as a gift from the gods, as beings sent by the gods themselves are depicted with two wings in Cosmogony. The Oracle in the prophecy painting is an angelic figure who has one wing. She also appears on the game's logo as a one-winged sleeping woman. Ardyn Izunia at times wears a black wing accessory, likening him to an image of a fallen angel.
