Do you know what Lambda from Tales of Graces exactly is? Is he some intelligent energy being or is a special humanoid like Sophie? Because people are saying different things about Lambda's nature and I am getting confused about what he is exactly.
Texa here! Sorry for the delays to replies I’ve fallen in a ditch called ff 14 and I can’t find my way out often.
I forwarded this to @guardianoftime and she says “He’s a being born in Fodra’s core which puts him on the same level of existence as Little Queen and Fodra Queen. He confirms that he’s a “core being” in a line of dialogue from the F-Arc where he says to Asbel “I, too, was born in Fodra’s core.”
And while the game doesn’t explicitly confirm or deny this, I always assert that he’s specifically a Sigma, which are monsters you find ONLY in the Lastalia Shaft on Fodra in the F-Arc who share the same monster model as Lambda with the same yellow and pink color scheme that Lambda’s smaller ball form now displays in the F-Arc. Some people might write that off as typical Namco laziness and sure, that could be part of it, but the fact they used a boss model…..as a regular enemy model…….and coordinated those colors…..very deliberately…..I mean that’s a little too coincidental to be just a factor of laziness, so.
But while I do always assert that he’s a Sigma I just want to be clear the game itself doesn’t actually tell you that, it’s one of those things left to player observation. The only thing the game does actually tell you about Lambda is that he’s a being from Fodra’s core who was found when Cornell and Emeraude were doing research on the core.“
