Faradayin

Faradayin is a fictional character from the *Final Fantasy* series, specifically appearing in *Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn* and its expansions. Created by Square Enix, Faradayin is a mysterious and enigmatic figure who plays a significant role in the game’s lore, particularly within the *Shadowbringers* expansion.

Faradayin is a member of the Eorzea-based *Final Fantasy XIV* universe, originally from the world of *Final Fantasy VII* known as Midgar. As a former member of the Shinra Electric Power Company, he was part of the organization’s research division, where he conducted experiments involving the manipulation of energy and time. His work led to his eventual departure from Midgar, though his exact motivations remain ambiguous. In *Final Fantasy XIV*, Faradayin is revealed to be a time-traveling scientist who seeks to correct the temporal rifts that threaten both worlds.

His character is notable for his calm demeanor, deep knowledge of scientific principles, and cryptic speech. Faradayin serves as a mentor and ally to key characters in the story, offering guidance while navigating the complexities of time and causality. His presence in *Final Fantasy XIV* bridges the lore of two major *Final Fantasy* franchises, expanding the interconnected mythology of the series.

Faradayin’s design reflects his scholarly and introspective nature, with a focus on his role as a researcher rather than a combatant. His contributions to the narrative emphasize themes of responsibility, sacrifice, and the consequences of scientific ambition. Though he does not appear frequently in gameplay, his influence on the plot is substantial, making him a memorable figure among fans of the series.
