Red (SaGa Frontier character)

Red Okinagi is one of the seven main characters in the PSX game "SaGa Frontier", and he is considered to be part of the "Holy Trinity" of the game. The other two parts of this are Asellus and Blue/Rouge, for those wondering.

Very Brief Plot Summary

SPOILERS! PLOT DETAILS REVEALED! ABANDON ALL HOPE OF SURPRISE YE WHO READ THIS!

Red was given his superhero abilities by another, more experienced hero by the name of Alkarl. He gave Red the stipulations of being a hero: Never act unjustly, and never reveal your identity. Red merely wanted revenge for his father's murder at the hands of the criminal organization "BlackX". Travelling to the 4 BlackX bases in Koorong, Manhatten, Kyo, and Shingrow Red as Alkaiser shut them down and defeated their leaders, including Shuzer, the man who killed his father. He also encounters a peculiarly honourable Mec by the name of Metal Black (MBlack). He battles this foe three times, and in the final battle with MBlack III Alkaiser can learn Re-Al-Phoenix, his ultimate offensive hero skill. After defeating the 4 emperors, red sneaks abopard the Black Ray with the help of his old friend Hawk. He destroys it by triggering a self-destruct mechanism and he ends up in the main stronghold of BlackX, where he is in his Alkaiser form for the rest of the game. There he confronts Dr. Klein, MBlack III and the nefarious, oh-so-originally named BossX. After the battle, Red is standing at his parents' graves, and Alkarl appears to take Red's powers away, making him a normal man again. Thus ends Red's journey.

Gameplay Uniqueness

Red has the ability to transform into Alkaiser, which gives him a 250 point HP boost, a new sword and access to some Alkaiser only abilities. These are as follows:

Fighting Skills

BrightFist (Very strong punch)

ShiningKick (Very Strong Kick)

SparklingRoll (Strong, Backfist-looking attack)

Al-Blaster (Energy Projectiles)

Al-Phoenix (Charging Attack)

Re-Al-Phoenix (Stronger Al-Phoenix)

FinalCrusade (Alkaiser Sacrifices 1 LP to restore an amount equal to his HP to the party)

Sword Skills

KaiserWing

KaiserSmash

Alkaiser's Raysword only has an attack power of 45 or so, but it gives him bonuses to his stats, and is a nifty blue colour :-).

Red cannot transform if other party members can see him do so! This means that if they are NOT: Dead, Blind, Palsied, Petrified, or sleeping, or any combination of the above, Red cannot transform into Alkaiser. Also, Red will not gain any stats after a battle if he is Alkaiser. It is for use at one's own discretion (Or Bosses...hint hint).
