Quotes[]

Background Story[]

5★	A young lady from another world where sorceresses pass their power down through the ages. Rinoa is a member of the Forest Owls, a resistance group fighting for the freedom of a small nation. Her extraordinary assertiveness sets her apart from the crowd, and she has come to serve as a de facto leader of the organization. Originally in Balamb Garden to request that the elite mercenary force SeeD is dispatched to aid the Owls' cause, Rinoa meets Squall at a banquet as if orchestrated by fate.
6★	A young lady from another world where sorceresses pass their power down through the ages. Rinoa is bright and cheerful by nature who is quick to speak her mind, even to those she has only just met. She encounters Squall when he is dispatched to help her resistance group liberate a small nation, and the two remain together afterwards. A young lady with an unusually good intuition, her eccentric mannerisms tend to leave a deep impression on others.
7★	A young lady from another world where sorceresses pass their power down through the ages. Rinoa develops feelings for Squall, one of the SeeD members she had employed for her cause, and eventually decides to join him and his friends in battle. The strength Squall sees in Rinoa—her unique approaches and assertiveness in interacting with others—is something that changes him greatly, and she quickly becomes an irreplaceable presence in his life.

Fusion[]

5★	If we keep this up and get even stronger, we'll be able to carry out all kinds of plans!
6★	Who said this was a game...? I understand what's going on... I mean, I can do this...right?
7★	Guys, I'm gonna fight, too. I don't wanna just hide. I want to fight alongside everyone.

Awakening[]

5★	<blank>
6★	You guys probably think this is all a game to us. ...Well, it's not! We're serious. So serious...it hurts.
7★	I can't fight alone, but I can as long as you're with me! I want to fight too!

Summon[]

5★	Look into my eyes... You're-going-to-like-me... You're-going-to-like-me... Did it work?
6★	Hello there! I want you to show me around. You know, to get acquainted with the place.
7★	I don't think I've ever been in a setting with so many people about my age. It's kinda like camp. It's fun! I'm really glad I'm here.

Trust Mastery[]

There are no guarantees in the future. That's why TODAY, the time we have now, is important. After all, we're together in all this.

Rinoa has a variation: Rinoa & Angelo.

Trivia

The main heroine of Final Fantasy VIII.
Upon looking closely in Rinoa's 7-star sprite, this is as if she has a permanent Angel Wing effects on.
Alongside Squall, she is one of the first two units that can go to 7-star max rarity at the start of their banner release.
