Noctis Lucis Caelum

Noctis Lucis Caelum is the (initially sole) playable character and main protagonist of Final Fantasy XV. He is the crown prince and heir to the throne of Lucis, the kingdom with control over the Crystal. Thus, he can wield the power of Lucian kings. He was first announced for the cancelled game Final Fantasy Versus XIII, which eventually transformed into the Final Fantasy XV Universe.

Noctis is the son of King Regis, and travels along with his close friends, Gladiolus Amicitia, Ignis Scientia, and Prompto Argentum. He departs his home of Insomnia to Altissia to marry Lunafreya Nox Fleuret and solidify a political union. He is thrust into a conflict against the Niflheim Empire, and must take on his duties and become a king. Noctis treats his close friends as equals, and initially struggles to cope with his responsibilities, looking towards his father as a role model. He struggles articulating his feelings, which he prefers to deal with alone. Along the journey, his three companions note his improved confidence, and how he has become more resolute.

Noctis is the main playable character. He can equip all weapons, and the Combat Ascension Spheres focus on him exclusively. He can warp by throwing his weapon to move quickly around the field and to damage enemies with warp-strikes. He can invoke his Armiger to greatly increase his speed and strength. His leisure skill is fishing, which lets the player partake in a minigame across Lucis and Altissia.
