10 Amazing Video Game Characters That Were Killed Off Way Too Quickly

Moenbryda Wilfsunnwyn from Final Fantasy XIV is one of the Scions of the Seventh Dawn, the game's order of legendary heroes.

Her title along with her bulky physique of a Roegadyn are already enough to make her a certified badass, but on top of that, she has another interesting quality in that she shares a childhood bond with another fan favorite Scion—Urianger.

Unfortunately, that part of her character is never explored too deeply, as Moenbryda is one of the first Scions to die in A Realm Reborn.

Moenbryda goes out in an act of noble sacrifice, protecting your character, while you create the blade necessary for stopping the main bad guy, Nabriales. Her death is dignified and leaves a real impact on the game's narrative, but at the same time you can't help but think that when Moenbryda dies, the game squanders a whole rabbit hole of fascinating lore.

Her close relationship with Urianger that dates all the way back to when they were children could've shed some much-needed light on the backstory of one of the most enigmatic Scions, but instead, everyone is left wondering what his friendship with Moenbryda looked like.

Seriously, couldn't someone with a less interesting backstory take that fall for you?
