If it was in the game (I don't really remember it) then it was probably in reference not to suicide missions, but the typhoon that supposedly saved Japan. |

Just discovered this randomly on Babelfish.
Lacrima is Italian for "Tear". When trying to figure out which "tear", wikipedia told me it was also Latin for tear (crying tear by the way). ~~~ The balls of evil are never safe from the steel-toed boot of JUSTICE!!

Diviner is someone who can tell the future.
Ignis is apparently fool. All of Fia's OS' are music types, kinds, and styles. |

Diviner was already mentioned.
I think Ignis was too. |

Eh...
Aghart; hmm...I often think of Aghart as a phoenix, which he probably is. But everyone probably knows a thing or two about phoenixes that I don't need to search. ~~~ I USE A MAC

The red Diviner Lorelei is a fire-based spear used by the Grim Angel Ledah. Ledah refuses to use any other weapon. While in your party, Lorelei's Execution Level skill is "Lost Seraph". Later, Ledah uses "Crimson Correges" as Lorelei's Execution Level when fighting Ein, then "Rose Kreuz" in his "Awakened" form. Lorelei's name seems to have come from the German legend of the rock Lorelei.(got this stuff from wiki)
i dun tink lorelei is a woman though the name is same, the last sentence ... |

Nevermind about Ignis, its actually spelled Ignus.
It means Fire, not Fool :P ~~~ Писатель всегда будет в оппозиции к политике, пока сама политика будет в оппозиции к культуре.

The Riviera Wiki is not the most accurate article. Of course, it's been a while since I looked through it, it might be a bit more accurate now.
And the wiki article doesn't cover half the things listed in this thread. |

Zantetsuken is the weapon (and attack) used in Final Fantasy (since FFIV, I believe) by the summon Odin. It's an extremely powerful, instant-kill move.
And yeah, Longinus is really popular. It still makes me laugh how Ledah is explaining all this serious stuff about it and then Ein goes, "Can I keep it?" XD |

Why are we saying, "This name comes from some other game"?
Zantetsu has a story behind it from before Final Fantasy. ~~~ "What was his name again? Midale?" - When one does not remember Milanor's name.

The Zantetsuken is merely a sword tha can cut metal. There's no real 'history' to it, IIRC, because a lot of weapons that could cut through steel was called a 'zantetsuken.'
