Background Story

4★	One of Golbez's Archfiends who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons. After killing the King of Baron, Cagnazzo poses as the deceased ruler and proceeds to use the military forces at his disposal to collect the Crystals. His subsequent attack on Mysidia causes Cecil to speak out against this unwarranted violence, presenting the best opportunity to relieve Cecil of his post as captain of the Red Wings. What many are unaware of, however, is that Golbez is the real mastermind behind the scenes. It is he who commands the Baron army and makes all the preparations necessary to acquire the Crystals.
5★	One of Golbez's Archfiends who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons. Cagnazzo posed as the deceased King of Baron at Golbez's behest, managing to steal the Crystals of Mysidia and Fabul. Unforgiving of anyone who opposes him, he was quick to discharge Cecil from his position as captain of the Red Wings, and did not hesitate to imprison Cid as well. Upon hearing that Cecil has become a paladin, the Archfiend becomes so upset that he finally reveals his true identity. He then uses his command over the element of water to ambush Cecil and his party.
6★	One of Golbez's Archfiends who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons. Whilst posing as the King of Baron, Cagnazzo orders Cecil to take the Carnelian Signet to the village of Mist. This ring eventually activates, and causes the entire village to be reduced to ashes. Once Cecil becomes a paladin and returns to Baron, Cagnazzo ambushes his party and fails. Using the last of his power, he set up a trap for Cecil by causing the walls around him and his party to begin collapsing. In order to save them, Palom and Porom petrify themselves to hold the walls in place.

Fusion

4★	My shell provides the ultimate protection! Although guarding leaves little room for fun.
5★	My tsunami shall wash away everything in its path!
6★	In life, I was terrible--in death, steeped in terror greater still. Drink long and deep of it ere you die!

Awakening

5★	You'd best not mistake me for the others. Mwa ha ha!
6★	It would seem unsuspecting prey has wandered into my domain... Why don't we have some fun?

Summon

4★	I am the Drowned King, Cagnazzo--archfiend of water and sworn servant of Golbez! Bow down before me!
5★	Your liege? Who might that be? Oh, I think I've just remembered! It's his part I've been playing all this time.
6★	Did you summon me here? The wicked are not wont to fall alone.

Trust Mastery

"You've returned at last! And all the stronger for your journey, by the looks of it." HAH! Did you fall for that, truly?
