8

8 is a DLC character in Dissidia Calamitas Infinita, originating from Echoes of Strife.

Appearance
8's garb is close to that of the sterotypical black mage, featuring a large pointed hat with a brim that extends over his eyes, a long midnight blue robe, and black pants, boots and gloves. He manifests a shroud of darkness around his head, with only his eyes visible as two dull yellow flames. When moving during casting spells, it can be seen that any possible exposed skin on his arms and neck is covered with bandages. He also wears a bracelet on his right wrist that appears to be of the consistency of solidified oil, iridescent yet dark at the same time.

Battle
 8  Octarine Magus- Chooses from a wide pool of magical Bravery attacks to enhance a limited selection of HP attacks.

As an Octarine Magus, 8 is skilled in magical attacks with the properties of Earth, Water, Wind, Fire, Ice, Lightning, Holy, and Dark. All of his Brave attacks can be slightly altered depending on how the circle button is pressed, and all have Brave to Brave chains.

In compensation for his Brave diversity, 8 has access to only two HP attacks. The power of these attacks grow and ebb depending on the types of Bravery attacks 8 has executed, with more consideration given to attacks that hit, especially Brave to Brave chains that hit. This effect is visualized as the Element Brace, a small bar below 8's portrait that changes color from (Black ⇌ Red ⇌ Orange ⇌ Yellow ⇌ Gray ⇌ Green ⇌ Blue ⇌ Indigo ⇌ White). By focusing on the use of certain Brave attacks, 8 can concentrate devastating power in one of his HP attacks. However, repeating the same attacks may lead to predictability, forcing him to employ some diversity.

EX Mode
8's EX Mode is Stay the Hand of Fate. Parts of his robes are torn away, revealing more bandages, but even these are torn in places, with the same oil-like substance in the Element Brace pouring forth from the tears. While in EX Mode, 8's Bravery attacks affect the Element Brace much more severely if they connect. He gains a new HP attack (activated by pressing the same buttons as activating EX Mode) called Scourge, which is an HP attack unaffected by the Element brace.

When using Scourge, 8bit swipes forward with tendrils of darkness if the buttons are simply tapped. If the buttons are held, he steadily emits more tendrils over 3 seconds, then disappears and reappears next to the enemy with blinding speed, grasping them in shadow.

8's EX Burst is Visage.
