Chaz Ashley

Chaz is one of the first characters to join your party along with Alys. He started out living on the streets until Alys took him under her wing and taught him the hunter’s trade. Thanks to her training, Chaz becomes a powerful fighter, skilled with both swords and Techniques (the game’s version of magic).

He’s one of the strongest characters in Phantasy Star IV and fills a role similar to a Red Mage in Final Fantasy - a versatile warrior who can handle both physical attacks and spells.

Chaz’s skills can boost his regular attack, hit enemies with light-based damage, paralyze, or instantly kill. Earth, Crosscut, Air Slash, and Ray Blade only work if he’s using a sword or dagger. Explode works no matter what he’s holding.

In the “Power” column, it's described as [number] + [attribute]. The attributes are explained below.

  • attack - determines attack power.
  • mental - determines magic power and resistance.
  • agility - determines defense power and position in tournament.
  • dexterity - determines ability to strike enemy.

For example, if the character's Mental is 24, “80 + mental” would equal 104 total of power for that skill/technique.
