Hume

The Humes, also known as Humans, are the most common race in Ivalice.

Final Fantasy XII
They have no real special abilities, and have the second shortest life span of any race in Ivalice, next to the Aegyl. Despite this, they have managed to set up large Empires and Kingdoms all over Ivalice.

Final Fantasy Tactics
In the time of Final Fantasy Tactics, Humes are the only race left in Ivalice, all the other having gone extinct long before the game's start.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
Because of their nature, humans are some of the most adaptable characters in Ivalice. While they can't access extremely strong classes like the Viera's Assassin or the Bangaa's Dragoon, they have the highest number of jobs to choose from. They are also the only race able to get the S-Ability Doublesword, which allows a unit to wield two weapons, so long as they are both 1-hand (bows, for example, are not affected by Doublesword, though Rods can be.) Human exclusive jobs include: Soldier, Paladin, Ninja, Hunter, Fighter and Blue Mage.

The Totema of the humans is Mateus. Mateus is the most powerful of the Totema, but is also the last one obtained.

Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift


Since Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift is a direct sequel of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, the Humes (the term they also used in Final Fantasy XII) have very similar properties to the last game. They still have access to more balanced jobs, and two new jobs: Parivir and Seer.

Humes can be obtained in these locations during Blackfrost or Skyfrost:


 * Targ Wood - Soldier, Thief, White Mage, Black Mage, Archer
 * Galerria Deep - Paladin, Fighter, Blue Mage, Hunter
 * Sant D'alsa Bluff - Parivir, Ninja, Illusionist, Seer
