Who’s Your Favourite ‘Special’ Character In FFII?

Now that I’ve got that bit of confusion cleared up, who is your favourite special party member who joins your party on a temporay basis, taking up Lionheart/Leon’s empty slot? Bare in mind not everyone may be advanced sufficently in FFII yet so please mark your spoilers.

For me, it could only be Princess Hilda’s assistant, Minu/Mindu the White Mage, who intially joins your party not that late in the game on their hike to Salamand and Semite Falls to recover mythril. Cool outfit, mysterious persona, powerful spells (shame he doesn’t know Holy at the start, but oh well, can’t win ’em all!), and he seems to know far more than he’s letting on about the Paramekian invasion. Or at least, that’s what I thought as I was playing FFII.

Anyway, who is your favourite special (non-permamant) FFII character?
