"You have braved the bowels of Hell to reach me.
But the hand of man, which deals in false justice and forsaken love, can never hope to defeat the lord master of Hell!"

Notes:

This version of Emperor Mateus is quite different from the one summoned in the previous incarnations, with a more complex nature. He possesses elements from the version of him presented in the novel 'Muma no Meikyū' (which I am not entirely savvy about but will do my best), and therefore information regarding it will be included here. He is also more powerful than the incarnations in other cycles alongside having a more developed history and personality overall in comparison.


Other elements from versions of Emperor Mateus from outside of 'Dissidia' were taken into account when developing this incarnation (though all his abilities from 'Dissidia' series are still retained alongside the new powers and concepts), and therefore the information regarding his overall character will be included here for reference material. There are also a few personalized touches. He still possesses the exact same primary goal as the 'Dissidia' incarnation - overthrowing Cosmos and Chaos - but I imagine his chances of doing so and motivation differ. Unlike the previous incarnations, his existence is an anomaly -- while the previous incarnations were not powerful enough to take a god - such as Chaos - on directly, this incarnation is closer to his canonical version (who was capable of defeating both God and Satan), but is also beyond that version and should be thought of as a different envisioning of the character; however, since awakening in the present cycle he has not fully manifested his true powers yet.

Name:
Layle

World:
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers

Alignment:
Cosmos

Appearance:


Class:
Crystal Bearer

Information:
Layle

Abilities (Non-Dissidia):

Layle's Crystal Bearer powers give him gravity-type telekinesis. He can lift and toss objects and people, as well as activate projectile weapons just with his powers and no input needed. He can also use his powers on himself, allowing him to jump great distances, land safely after falling from high places, as well as accelerate and strengthen himself to attack enemies with extreme force.

Layle can also kinetically lock onto enemies, using his powers to pull himself closer to them. In the story, Layle has also been shown to create gravity barriers that can reflect gunfire. It is later revealed in the game that Layle can focus his powers on himself to also negate the gravity of his planet, giving him the ability to fly.

EX Mode:
Crystal Reaction

When Layle's powers are enhanced by a crystal reactor, Layle's body crystallizes to a large extent. He is then able to create a crystal shaped hover board made out of energy for him to use, thus making it so he doesn't have to focus his power on himself to fly. When in this form, Layle's Crystal Bearer abilities increase dramatically.

Previously hard enemies become defeat-able with ease, his powers allow him to easily rip large turrets off of battleships, and use energy charged punches which become full energy blasts when unleashed on his opponents.

EX Burst:
Strength of the Dauntless Mercenary

Layle summons his hover board, flying around his enemy he flings deadly objects at them using his powers. Layle jumps off the hover board, rocketing himself full speed at his enemy using his powers. He hits them with a deadly charged punch, unleashing an energy blast on them point blank.
