Imperial airborne division commodore known for captaining a distinct red aircraft as well as a squad of mercenaries. Even in hand-to-hand combat, Aranea is most at home in the skies, wielding a magitek lance in dragoon-style aerial attacks.
—Official description
Aranea Highwind is an antagonist and a guest party member in Final Fantasy XV. She is captain of the Niflheim Empire's Third Army Corps 86th Airborne Unit, and her skill in aerial combat has earned her the nickname, "The Dragoon."
PersonalityEdit
Aranea has been described by her English voice actress, Kari Wahlgren, as "edgy" and "street smart", though her loyalty remains ambiguous due to her status as a mercenary. She does not agree with immoral practices, such as the empire using Daemons in their warcraft, but plays along for a very long time. As a free spirited woman, she also encourages Noct to not let anyone tell him how to walk his path in life. [2] She also displays a mischievous side when she flirts with Noctis in battle.
She also claims to not like to work after hours when she withdrew from her fight with Noctis, implying she is rather fond of him and prefers to not kill him.
