The game also includes references to several "Final Fantasy" specific characters, places, and situations from earlier games in the "Final Fantasy" series — "Final Fantasy VII"'s Cloud Strife is a playable character, and through the "Proposition" system in bars scattered around the world map, treasures and lost areas such as "Matoya Cave" (a reference to the first "Final Fantasy" game) and various colors of Materia can be found. To keep with tradition, Olan's adoptive father, Cidolfas Orlandu, is nicknamed "T.G. Cid", and Chocobos are present in the game as well. Additionally, most of the monsters appear in one "Final Fantasy" game or another, although the Lucavi are entirely new monsters altogether.
