Season 49, Week 1
Gogen
(Arc the Lad Collection)
 
The elderly mage Gogen is nigh immortal, having been born in the land of ancient Sumaria. With the magical capability to float through much of time itself, Gogen is a fearsome enemy to face... even if he’s currently residing in Light. He’s dispatched far tougher opponents than his earthy opponent Noel; Gogen’s elemental magics will show the Nedian the true power of nature, and Gogen can even use MP stealing to deplete Noel’s reserves and fuel his own relentless attacks. After waiting so long to get into the arena again and prove himself capable of feats like his friend Tellah and his castmates in the higher divisions, Gogen refuses to lose to such a young fuddy-duddy!

Star Ocean's Earthquake spell is synonymous with overwhelming power. How will Gogen feel when a user of that spell is staring down at him? Hopefully he'll be frozen in place, unable to comprehend the danger in front of him. Sure, Noel's version of Earthquake isn't as strong as Indalecio's cursed incanation, but what is? Even if Gogen isn't torn limb from limb by the park ranger's attack magic, the ancient mage will feel the power of Nedian magic. Noel's plentiful healing and status attack and protective skills aren't anything to sneeze about either! The earth is going to open up and swallow this old man, even if it takes several uses of Earthquake to get the job done.

Gogen never made it to the match, being detained by PETA on accusations of "ten hundred years of animal abuse."

Noel has not said whether he was the one who made the call to PETA or not.

Gogen: 12
