Final Fantasy XVI follows the gruff, good-natured protagonist Clive Rosfield over 18 years as he transforms from honor-bound aristocrat into revolutionary and savior of Valisthea — a land where humans called Dominants can "prime" into massive god-like Eikons, magic users called Bearers are brutally subjugated for control of their gifts, and a Blight is rapidly turning the two continents of Storm and Ash into wastelands.
