Biography: The history of Lloyd's parents is shrouded in mystery. Lloyd however, was raised in the neutral town of Fisherman's Horizon by two loving parents. Since he was little he had been raised in the location strictly against war and conflict and instead preferred to talk out his problems. His father was among some of the best fisherman in town, while his mother was quite the reliable mechanic herself. Lloyd grew up watching his parents flourish in their trades, so it was only nature he'd pick up their skills as well. For a long while Lloyd was ignorant of the growing turmoil elsewhere in the world for his "world" only comprised of Fisherman's Horizon.

Although, the fisherman told stories of the "big one" which resided in the waters around Fisherman's horizon. Smitten with the tale everyday Lloyd would share whatever food he had for breakfast, lunch, or dinner with the "big one" by keeping tossing it into the ocean hoping the creature could eat it. Little did he know the so called "big one" was very aware of the peaceful child's kindness. Ultimately however, it wasn't until he encountered his first travelers, namely SeeDs operatives, that his life would be altered forever.

When Lloyd was 10 years old a group of few operatives were passing through going about their business until a group of monsters began to attack the town. While the town’s people rushed inside their homes to avoid getting in the way within the chaos of battle, Lloyd was watching with awe as the operatives battled the creatures with ease. It was then a deep rumbling shook the town.

From the depths of the ocean rose a massive serpent that attacked the SeeDs operatives with such force it nearly killed them all. Just as the beast was about to finish them off the child stood defiantly between the serpent and the downed operatives. Although they pleaded with the boy to run Lloyd would not budge although his legs were a shaking mess. It was clear he was fearful and the boy stared into the eyes of the creature.

For some reason the serpent relented its fury and hesitated to finish off the SeeDs operatives along with the boy. It was then the creature reached out and spoke to Lloyd "Why do you protect these people..? What do you hope to accomplish even as you face certain death?" The boy couldn't move and his fear was obvious in his response "T-to p-protect t-them" he answered. For a few moments the beast gazed into the child's eyes and could sense a deep set courage beneath his fear. Greatly pleased with what it had witnessed the serpent was revealed to be the guardian force Leviathan and it offered its companionship to the boy.

Stunned by this development the operatives thanked Lloyd and immediately asked to speak with his parents. It was obvious they wanted to craft him into a warrior SeeDs could use, however his parents were not thrilled by the idea in the least. It wasn't until Lloyd expressed his wishes to go with them and do some good for the world; he also added he wanted to be able to protect Fisherman's Horizon and everyone within.

Now eight years later Lloyd has come far in his studies but still has much to learn before he can become a full-fledged SeeDs operative. Now he has been transferred to the Winhill garden to complete his training. There he works toward his goal the best he can, even if has met his fair share of failure along the way.

After the examination mission where he had almost lost his life, Lloyd had finally achieved his dream and become a SeeDs operative.

Battle Overview: Given his training, Lloyd's battle skills are definitely formidable. When it comes to a battle Lloyd dives right in, filling out his enemy and quickly catching onto their strengths in order to find holes in their defense. Although this tactic seems rather unorthodox, its more effective that one might think. Primarily he does fight with his legs in junction with his spear, but will switch off with his fists should the need arise. Lastly his pile bunker only has one function: decimation. Lloyd, more than naught, saves a pile bunker charge for the killing blow.

Limit Breaks:

Far Cry Barrage: Lloyd unleashes a flurry of focused strikes with his spear and delivers a punishing full powered blow with his pile bunker. Lastly he focuses all his strength and throws his spear to finish off his foe.

Serpent's Wrath: This attack calls forth the aid of Leviathan and creates a maelstrom that engulfs and constricts the enemy with immense water pressure. Lloyd than stands on Leviathan’s head as it charges a random high level magical spell. Leviathan then unleashes the spell into the center of the maelstrom destroying it from the inside. (The spell depends on its compatibility level with Lloyd).

Seven Seas: Lloyd unleashes a powerful flurry of powerful water based strikes. At the end seven separate towers of water burst up into the sky. Lloyd throws the spear, impaling the foe, and launches them skyward. The water spires then dart inward drilling into the enemy one after the other before converging and spearing them together. Lastly Lloyd rides a massive tidal wave and with one last kick to sends it bolting to the enemy. The wave engulfs the foe and and crushes them with immense pressure.

Davy Jones Locker: Lloyd begins by punching the ground with Dual Hound. Leviathan then emerges from the impact zone and floods the area with water. Within the water Lloyd and Leviathan rush past the enemy numerous times with swift attacks. Leviathan catches them in its jaws and darts up before surging straight down in the newly formed body of water. The serpent rushes them deeper and deeper into the depths before colliding with the bottom. Lastly Leviathan surges upward gathering all the water around its body. It then surges back down with the water swirling around its form increasing its size. It impacts with the foe and dispels leaving the water behind. From above, Lloyd follows suit setting the Dual Hound to overdrive and landing a punch into their vital point. Lastly it discharges an intense electrical current for the final blow evaporating the water for the final blow.

*Destruction's Crescendo: Only capable with Ark. Lloyd stands as one with Ark and holds back his fists.

~Two Years Later~

User Image


Since that day Winhill was destroyed, Lloyd had no choice but to return to Fisherman's Horizon defeated. He had lost nearly his whole world and believed those who weren't with him were lost to the inferno. He and his borther reunited with their father but Lloyd seemed very detached. Spending his days on the pier outside of his home to fish quietly. It wasn't until the reporting of Edea bombing Balamb garden and Trabia that he took action. This couldn't go on! It was obvious the media was fearful of speaking bad of Edea but her actions spoke volumes. She wouldn't stop until the whole world was under her lock and key.

Thus, he resolved to do everything he could to stop her tyranny. The idea of a resistance was talked about at first, but then it quickly started to take form. Nona tracked them down and from the three of them it was born. It wasn't until their first mission that they started to get recognition. Galbadia labelled them terrorist, but slowly but surely they began to gain more favor with the public as well as supports/new members. Their operations were covert ops aimed to chip away at Galbadia before they could truly strike.

At the same time, the trio scoped out placed for a new base, not wanting Fisherman's Horzion to receive any of Galbadia's fury. It wasn't until the stumbled across the Isle of Storm that their fortune was changed forever. Within a concealed cave was the remains of the Centra. This would be their base. With help from the engineers of Fisherman's Horzion who wanted to truly test their capability's the base was underway. It was also during this time that Sophia tracked Lloyd down and they were reunited.

However, his attitude was much darker than she remembered. They continued their relationship but it became strained because of how much Lloyd was putting into his work and becoming consumed by it. During this time, The Unbroken struck the Galbadian missile base and blew it sky high. It was a sign to Edea personally, that her time was coming to an end. Eventually his relationship however, also reached a fever pitch and it seemed the two were over, until a certain event transpired. It brought them back together and even strengthened their bond. Lloyd snapped out of his darkness and returned to himself, although he was still more mature about his decision making.

Currently, they still receive intel from unlikely sources which has been very helpful. They have even grown quite a bit, even though their enemies hunt them. The Unbroken remain a strong and clear threat to Edea and her schemes.
