Vanille

Vanille

Oerba Dia Vanille, also addressed simply as Vanille, is a character from the Final Fantasy video game series made by Square Enix. She first appeared as a playable character and central character in the 2009 role-playing video game Final Fantasy XIII. A resident of the world of Gran Pulse who was once involved in a war with the artificial world of Cocoon, she and others are then chosen by the fal'Cie−a divided race of demigods who rule the worlds of Gran Pulse and Cocoon−to destroy Cocoon. Vanille appears in smaller roles in Final Fantasy XIII-2, Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII, and novellas related to the Final Fantasy XIII series. Vanille was created for Final Fantasy XIII by director Motomu Toriyama, who made her the game's narrator, and writer Daisuke Watanabe. Her design, created by artist Tetsuya Nomura, changed little over the Final Fantasy XIII games. She is voiced by Yukari Fukui in Japanese, and by Georgia van Cuylenburg in English. The character has seen mixed reactions from journalists, focusing on her appearance and initially-girlish personality, with particularly harsh criticism being levied towards the character's voice in the English localization. Additional commentary has focused on her overall story arc and relationship with fellow character Oerba Yun Fang, praising it as one of the best aspects of the game.
