Quistis Trepe
Final Fantasy VIII’s kickass schoolmarm—despite being like, 18 years old, because that’s how age in Japanese roleplaying games works, you might as well be dead after 20—was a riff on another Final Fantasy job, the Blue Mage. Blue Mages don’t have a repertoire of abilities of their own like other schools of magic in Final Fantasy; they instead take abilities from enemies and use them instead.
That’s a long way of saying it would be really silly to see a statue of Quistis using her Laser Eye beams in a sort of “Silence, Brand!” fashion.
