A number of spells from FFVI. Merton and W. Wind come to mind. If Lores count, you've got Grandtrain, Quasar, Rippler, Step Mine, etc.

You mean like FFT with the Bard class or like SMRPG with Mallow and his Cymbals?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah, I was a bit off, as it's the Dancer who affects enemies. Fortunately, the Bard does work with the definition I now know you intended (as Kaelin mentioned), so I'll add Nikki from Chrono Cross to complete the trio.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, I thought about that one myself but the magic thing kept me from being certain enough to mention it. I also remember that you use a flute as your weapon in Illusion of Gaia, though I don't think the hero has a way of attacking that involves actually playing it.

16. Shoot, I know that the best monster for synchronization is Springball, but I don't know who the best NPC partner is.

18. I believe that Geno Whirl can do 9999 HPs of damage. I guess it's the equivalent of Ayla's Bronze Fist critical. I always use Bowser though.

How ya doing, buddy?
