This is, obviously, only the meta-explanation for the name and since that presentation and their first mention, The Twelve have featured so much in the game, that we are now – inspired by another unlikely source – about to explore their true nature.Īt the end of 6.0 we were teased with the fact that we didn’t even know the “true identity of the Twelve.” But what do we know about these (technically 13) gods, and why are they even important? We’re about to meet them in the proverbial flesh, but how significant is this in the lore? There are many, many questions to be answered here, but as much as I’d like to, this won’t be a full deep dive into every little detail and theory – otherwise we’d be sitting here for hours, writing a book instead of an article.

Not only is it hilarious, it is also the origin story of the Eorzean Pantheon outside of the game and shows where the inspiration for names and lore can come from. One of my favorite interview questions to date, was from Michael-Christopher Koji Fox, the English Translation & Localization Director, is his explanation of the explicit “Thal’s Balls.” You can find a video from the 2014 NA FanFest here, retelling the story of how the name came to pass prior to 1.0 and then was all over the place during Sony’s QA of the PS3 version of A Realm Reborn.
