Birth by Sleep Heroes of Light Theory

**Final Fantasy Spoilers Galore**

Everyone knows that Sora, Kairi, and Riku are connected with Ven, Terra, and Aqua.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the Heroes of Light from the Final Fantasy series.

Final Fantasy 1-5 all mentioned heroes of light, with the exeption of 2, and in 4 they are mentioned, but the word "Heroes of light, is not used."

In all of thier appearances, each of the Heroes of light always had an element. Wind, Water, Earth, and Fire.

Sora and Ven mean sky, and wind respectivly.

Kairi and Agua mean sea and water.

Riku and Terra mean earth and ground.

Now, I'm wondering who the hero of Fire is. Possibly Mickey? I dont know.

Comparison

Im going to compare the heroes of light from Final Fantasy 5 (which is the most classic heroes of light) I would also like to compare them to the Heroes of light from Final Fantasy 3, but I dont remember the story very well, or the character names, so blah...

Bartz vs Sora
Bartz is the hero of wind. He is a free spirit. Always looking for adventure. He is a happy go lucky kind of guy, always optimistic. He also is a bit immature, but has a strong sence of justice.

Sora matches all of the above in spades.

Riena vs Kairi
Riena is a girly girl. Not very aggresive, kinda quite. Always seems to be the most reasonable in the party. And she is a princess

Kairi hasnt been in the game long enough for us to truly know her, but she is a girly girl. Seems to be calm and mellow though. Shes really a princess too.

Guluf vs Riku
Guluf is older than the rest of the group, a grandfather. He is very determined whenever the goal in front of him is clear, he has a strong friendship with those of the party, certainly is the most loyal. Sacrifices himself for the benefit of others.

Riku is still the eldest, but only by a year. He also seems to have a high determination drive. Seems to be the most willing to sacrifice himself (IE: Xemnas battle).

I would do one for Faris, but her personality doesnt match Mickeys at all, possibly because Mickey's personality was already determined by Disney. Also, we dont even know if Mickey is the Hero of Fire.


Heroes of Darkness

Ok, also, there is also mentioning of Heroes of Darkness in several Final Fantasy games. You fight the Heroes of Darkness, (sometimes called the fiends of darkness) in Final Fantasy 1, 3, 4, and 5. In final fantasy 3, and 5, they mention that the Heroes of Light and the heroes of Darkness, are always CONECTED.

Nomura mentioned that Ven Terra and Aqua are connected to Sora, Riku, and Kairi.

Also, In Final Fantasy 3, you actually meet the Heroes of Darkness in human form. They are seen wearing Bronze and Gold armour. Which does remind me of Ven, Terra, and Aqua in the teaser trailer. (Someone please find me a screen shot of the heroes of Darkness. I looked high and low...)

Interesting...

Birth by sleep mentioned that Ven is connected with Sora, most speculate its likely its through Roxas, considering they look the same.

Also, DiZ said "Roxas is from Darkness, and unable to pass through light", and "From the other side" wheas "Sora is made of light, and can pass through the world of Light."

And when Sora asked Roxas who he was he stated "Someone from the dark."

This all may be implying that he is actually a Hero of Darkness.

 

Hmm. This seems a little far-fetched (considering it was done in Final Fantasy and I don't think such a concrete, known element would transfer over) but I think it would be lovely if it were true. It is pretty interesting.

 

Why? All of Square's games follow the exact same pattern.

It comes from the same company, even the characters name means, Earth, Wind, and Water.

 

spoilers?




In Final Fantasy 3 the Heroes of Darkness help defeat the Cloud of Darkness near the ending.

 

i thought that i heard some where that only two of the characters from bbs where conected to sora riku or kairi

 

I finally found an image of the "Heroes of Darkness."

In this game they are called Warriors of Dark.

The video quality if AWEFUL! But, you get a good look at the warriors of dark from 1:06 to about 1:20.

Tell me the armour doesnt look identical to the armour worn by Terra, Ven, and Aqua.

What do you think?
