Albel Nox is a playable character in Star Ocean: Till the End of Time and the spin-off Star Ocean: Anamnesis.
Till the End of Time[]
Albel's fighting style is based on quick attacks with a katana and making use of his ability to channel energy through his gauntlet, thus allowing him a means to attack both up close and from afar. His Minor Attacks are unique, as they can be consecutively chained for as long as his Fury gauge lasts, giving him great combo potential. Albel's fighting style is a modified version of the Edarl sword style.
In terms of statistics, Albel has decent attacking power, but his defense is relatively lacking because he equips chain mail-class armor like Nel and Maria do. Albel works best as a backup fighter for heavier hitters. His quick and evasive movement on the battlefield means he can bait enemies away from casters and characters with lower defenses.
