Characters of Final Fantasy X

Wakka is a twenty-four-year-old professional blitzball player, characterized by a long reddish-orange quiff, muscular body, and a Besaid Island accent (the real-world equivalent of which would be a Pacific Islander accent). He uses blitzballs as his weapons in battle, making him the only character who can reliably hit flying enemies, as well as making him the only character who can attack physically at range. Wakka is one of the three players that can fight underwater.
Wakka is one of the first people to befriend Tidus after his arrival in the mainland of Spira, due both to his blitzball prowess and his resemblance to Wakka's deceased younger brother, Chappu. Ironically, he and Tidus develop a affectionate brotherly relationship as the game goes on. Chappu, was killed in battle while using a machina weapon provided by the Al Bhed, and for this reason, Wakka's religious distaste of the Al Bhed hardened into a more personal grudge. Wakka's hatred of the Al Bhed slowly transforms from racism into respect during the course of Final Fantasy X, as he closely befriends one of their number (Rikku), discovers that their kidnapping of Summoners was with good intentions, learns that Yuna is half Al Bhed, and realizes the irrational nature of his prejudice. Despite his former mistrust of machina and the Al Bhed, he takes to their airship with few misgivings and also fights unquestioningly in their defense during an attack on their city on Bikanel Island.
