Background Story

3★	A young girl from a distant world with two moons. Born to a family of summoners in Mist, she lost her mother when the kingdom of Baron, fearing the power of the Eidolons, razed her home. Initially despising Cecil for his role in the attack, she gradually opens up to her new companion upon witnessing his kindness. Carrying the scars from the loss of her village, she matures as a summoner under the gentle care of Cecil and Rosa.
4★	A young summoner girl who hails from a distant world where two moons rise in the sky. Pure and true of heart, she suffers a tragedy when her home, the village of Mist, is burned to the ground by order of the king of Baron, who feared the power of the Eidolons. She joins Cecil and his companions on their journey, but is thought to be lost when swallowed by the great Leviathan. Later she returns from the Feymarch, home of the Eidolons, as a woman grown, lending her prodigious powers to her former companions as they face their greatest challenge.
5★	A young girl who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons. Rydia is a summoner, and a survivor of the village of Mist. While journeying with Cecil and his companions, she was swallowed by the great Leviathan, only to later return from the Feymarch as a grown woman. Even as a full-fledged adult, Rydia retained her innocence and strength of spirit; her pure heart enabling her to befriend many Eidolons. She continued using their incredible power to help Cecil and his comrades on their quest, till the very end.

Fusion

3★	I may have lost my home, but I still have Cecil and Rosa. I still have friends!
4★	I don't want to lose anyone again... That's why I have to become strong! Stronger and stronger!
5★	I can feel my connection to the Eidolons growing stronger than ever.

Awakening

4★	Human or Eidolon, it's what's inside you that counts... Right, Cecil?
5★	Mother, please watch over me. I will become strong enough to protect my friends!

Summon

3★	I'm Rydia. My magic will help you all. Just watch!
4★	I learned a lot in the Feymarch! My summoning powers are stronger than ever!
5★	It is a strange sensation, being summoned. I wonder if the Eidolons I summon feel the same?

Trust Mastery

Even if we come from different worlds, we can still learn to understand one another. Just like this!

Notes

Gameplay

Rydia has a variation: Pure Summoner Rydia.
Ironically, her adult variation is inferior to her child variation.

Trivia

Asura and Leviathan are the names of the Eidolons who took care of and raised Rydia as a child.
You can see the silhouette of the Mist Dragon in her 5-star form.
She can learn up to Lv. 8 Black Magic in her 5-star form; this is evident that Rydia can also learn Meteor naturally upon leveling up. This also happens in Final Fantasy IV.
