You know... for all we love and praise chocobos, have you ever considered how BROKEN they are. We, the WoL, have traveled to places that might be seen as impossible ON MULTIPLE separate occasions. But every single time we call our Chocobo, it appears as though its been following us. Our chocobo is a freaking GOD, and i refuse to believe otherwise.

The information about Chocobos treating others as family is great. Adds some lore depth to one of my favorite things about the Chocobos, and that is that when one's personal Chocobo is stabled, it will jump up and down happily when it sees you approaching.

Yes, I really connected with the chocobo from the Grand Company quest that got our first mount. While I might have preferred a system like that introduced in FF11 where we could breed our own chocobos from the egg where colour was an inherited trait and food types improved stats. At least opposed to getting one as a full adult though I appreciated the ability to name him and eventually combat train him in a chosen class. Maybe it was my long exposure to chocobos from FF7 onwards that helped me immediately see him as a partner rather than pet. I admit I struggled to think of a name and had to think about it for a few minutes before I recalled another character across the games I played that helped me complete my purpose as Dragonborn without actually making me do anything in return. Paarthurnaax. It’s true he had a dark past and likely aided the Dragonborn so that he could begin to try to impose the Way of the Voice on the other dragons but still… you just got past the Greybeards, walked up to him and he straight up greeted you as Dragonborn, taught a word of power and gave valuable help until the end of the game. So perhaps that’s why he came to mind for naming my chocobo because it was during ARR, where absolutely nobody else would so much as piss on you if you were on fire without demanding another favour first. So yeah my WoL saw him as partner over pet and to be honest after setting him up with the tank role he’s saved my scrawny Smn/Sch and Whm butt more than once. I used him as my primary mount until I unlocked flying then switched to a mount that looked much more graceful in flight… until the flight ability was removed from me in Heavensward and Stormblood and I never could be bothered to get the aether currents so I went back to him was my primary mount again. So I’m really happy to see a lore video on them by my favourite scribe.

@@mikoto7693 Honestly, yeah I get ya. As a Gladiator my chocobo instead turned to pretty much patching my half dead self back together so I could go round twelve with the baddies. Far as how much I like em however? Well, Named em Ruby, a partner name I’ve had since the beginning of my gaming career, got their feathers a nice bright red, and lore wise it’s effectively the same. “Wow everyone here in Ul’dah sucks. At least I’ve got my bird buddy.” And from there the rest is history. Working em towards level 20 now cause my first money sink was onions. Cause if there’s ANYONE who deserves my full support. It’s my chocobo pal who’s been stitching me back together from the moment I got into the game proper.

Ul’Dah, one of the few good memories I’ve got of there is Ruby, my own Chocobo, fancy red feathers and all. Heh, couldn’t have asked for a better companion. That bird’s been stitching me back up pretty much all the way from day one, took up the sword and shield to protect people and took up the good ol fashioned brawling in case either of em ever failed. Heh, Hamon Holyfist’s a real inspiration too I’d say. But, I’m pretty sure I’d have stopped bein able to swing long ago if it weren’t for my own Chocobo. Can’t always trust people, but the birds are honest to a fault.

Serpent Lieutenant here, and I adore my chocobo partner. His healing or defender modes have been the difference between life and death sometimes. I named him Paarthurnax because he helps me freely, just like the one from Skyrim. I was struck how the Dragonborn just strolled up to Paarthurnax and the old dragon just straight up started helping her deal with Alduin without demanding anything first. No defeating monsters or going on fetch quests-just one conversation and he got straight to helping. It seemed like a good fit, given that the chocobo is the same. Immediately becomes your mount and only takes the ghysyl greens to be willing to fight alongside the WoL.

If my memory serves me right: In the Return to Ivalice quest line there is a moment where we are shown a vision of the past warriors of light and among them is a Chocobo. Also the body structure of a Chocobo with it's large head, heavy beak, small wings and thick muscular legs is almost identical to the Terror Birds that once roamed our world.

That would be Boco, the original chocobo party member from Final Fantasy Tactics. You can recruit other chocobos in that game, but Boco is the only one with any story (being Weigraf's abandoned chocobo). All of the spirits you see at the end of Return to Ivalice are the Zodiac Braves, the various party members you can recruit in FF Tactics. Minus Cloud Strife, cuz he's a secret bonus character. Although really, the most important Zodiac Braves are the ones you fight as bosses in Orbonne Monastery: Mustadio, Agrias, and "Thunder God" Cid. And of course Ramza, the main character of Tactics, who helps out against Ultima.

I loved meeting my chocobo companion too. And I love travelling around with him and fighting alongside him.. So much so that he’s still the mount I choose when I haven’t unlocked flying yet. I’d have him as a flying mount but it looks too awkward flying. It didn’t take me long to start viewing him as my WoL’s partner. More important to her as any fellow adventurer and I’d take him into Duties if I could. So I like to think that my WoL treats her beloved chocobo as best she can, and that they share a deep bond because of it.

It only awakens after living a long enough time with mankind provided they are well loved and cared for.

@@SynodicScribe Ah, thank you for confirming it. It’s been many years since I last played many of the Final Fantasy games. While 7 was my introduction to the series I did go back to some of the earlier ones as my fondness for the series grew. Ironically enough I remember really enjoying the chocobo racing and breeding in the original gold saucer. So many so that I did it for my brother and father because they didn’t appreciate it but wanted Knights of the Round. I went on to 8, 9, most of 10, lots of FF11 but I didn’t like 12, I was on the wrong console for 13. The disappointing thing was that I did do a bit of FF14 pre ARR but lost all data of it. My PC couldn’t handle it. As for 15 when I heard no party members were female I skipped. FF9 left a mark on me as I used Mikoto as my online name for many years. But I have to ask what the name is of the music you use in the background? I only know it from the male Viera reveal video.

Now I am curious. Since Chocobo are intelligent enough to cast some spells, and apply said spells to a degree tactically, could a chocobo who has a mage for a partner in theory learn new spells? Not like Fire IV or anything, but simple spells that can be learned by observation. Especially if they see said mage as a sibling, since I assume chocobos frequently learn things by watching other flock members like ravens and crows do. Plus I can’t help but think of a caster adventurer casting a spell at a monster, then seeing a second weaker spell hit because their chocobo decided the thing was a threat to their “flock”.

I always saw chocobos as lovely majestic creatures and friendly. Until I took up arms in Bozja. Then the RED COMET changed everything for me.

I always wished my chocobo was the one that got race, it always feels disingenuous to have or use any others. Like the black chocobo.

The one thing I'm incredibly curious about is what the lore reason is for their lack of breath. Seriously: go to Coerthas. Your breath is visible, but your chocobo's is not.
