"Initially starting out as an ally, Argath quickly transforms into one of the most grotesque, virulently prejudiced people you've ever seen in your life. His seemingly sole reason to exist is to hate the "lower class" scum that he wants to grind beneath his boot - a villain entirely driven by hate and spite. It's easy to loathe Argath, and The Ivalice Chronicles adds brilliant voice acting and new lines to make him even more detestable."
"Argath is the antithesis of everything Ramza and Delita stand for; where they believe in justice and equality, Argath believes in division and superiority. But crucially, Argath is also the thing that truly sets the game's plot in motion, the reason for the rift between Ramza and Delita, and why the two are forced to enter the grand political game of Ivalice."
"Argath initially weasels his way in as an ally, saying just the right things to ingratiate himself with Ramza and Delita. Square Enix Ramza first happens upon Argath as he's being attacked by monsters, and together with Delita, they save the young man. Upon learning that Ramza is a Beoulve, Argath instantly sees a kindred spirit - a fellow noble to attach himself to, who can help him restore his fallen house to glory."
Argath Thadalfus begins as a seemingly grateful ally who quickly reveals virulent prejudice and spite toward the lower classes. The Ivalice Chronicles voice work intensifies his detestable personality. Argath embodies division and superiority, directly opposing Ramza and Delita's beliefs in justice and equality. Argath's hatred ignites the central conflict, causes the rift between Ramza and Delita, and forces both into the political machinations of Ivalice. Argath ingratiates himself by playing the part of a noble ally, seeking to restore his fallen house, but his true motivations and cruelty emerge early and decisively.
