Balthier (バルフレア Barufurea) is a 22-year-old Hume sky pirate who pilots a small airship around the skies of Ivalice. He and his companion, Fran, prefer to remain outside of the war between the kingdoms of Ivalice. Hiroaki Hirata (平田広明) provides the voice of Balthier in the Japanese version of the game. While his name is officially rendered in the Japanese version as Balflear, Balthier is the official English version spelling.

Apparently he is the son of Cid in this game.
