Characters of Xenogears
This is a comprehensive listing of notable characters from the video game ''Xenogears'', a role-playing video game originally released in 1998 by Square Enix for the PlayStation video game console. Kunihiko Tanaka was the lead character designer, while Tetsuya Takahashi and Masato Kato were the lead writers for the game. ''Xenogears'' was a commercial and critical success. In Japanese gaming magazine ''Famitsu'', ''Xenogears'' was voted the 16th best video game of all time by its readers in a poll held in 2006.
''Xenogears'' follows the character Fei and his friends as they learn about Deus, a powerful, self-aware interplanetary invasion system that crashed onto the planet ten thousand years before the game's story begins. Deus has been secretly controlling the gradually increasing population of the planet to one day bring about its own resurrection. Fei and Elly are personalities which have been reincarnated throughout history in order to ensure that Deus never achieves its goal.〔 They serve as the main protagonists. Opposed to Fei and Elly, Miang has reincarnated several times with the task of manipulating the progress of mankind and, in fact, is the embodiment of Deus on the Earth. She serves as the main antagonist.
==Creation and development==
The characters of ''Xenogears'' were designed to allude to many psychological concepts, notably of Freudian and Jungian psychology. There is also an important character bearing the name of French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan.〔Fei: In that dream, I was called 'Lacan'... I was an artist... 〕 The most obvious allusion involves the nature of the game's protagonist, Fei Fong Wong, whose Freudian Id, ego and super-ego are discussed at length throughout the course of the game. Fei had subconsciously repressed his memories because of his torturous childhood. However, his desire to remember elements of his past eventually leads him to discover the truth about his identity and his relationship with the character known as Id.〔 This repression also relates to the Jungian concept of the shadow. Distinctly Adlerian in nature, however, are the actions of certain characters, such as Ramsus, whose actions are driven by an inferiority complex that stems from unconscious 'nodes' that often permeate exterior behaviors of an individual. Although not distinctly psychological, allusions to the theories of Friedrich Nietzsche are also found in the game.〔 For example, there is the concept of the eternal return, which, in ''Xenogears'', correlates to the recurrences of the Contact and the Antitype.
