I've always thought Auron was cool as hell, but there is definitely room to answer a lot of questions about him. Also, why does he choose to confide in Tidus, but not in Yuna? Dumping it all on him where he has nobody to share it with is kind of cruel. Does he realise that? In fact possibly the most curious thing about Auron is his current appearance since he looks considerably aged from his appeared in Braska's pilgrimage. Do the dead age in Spira? He was dead between the times, he should not look that aged.
I find it interesting how playing FF games as an adult rather than as a young child can influence your views in general. I'm currently replaying FF12 and was thinking about this in regards to the "I will not play puppet to Vayne" line from Ashe. FF12 is very political, and a lot of it soared over me when I was younger as I've never taken an interest. I assume that line is supposed to reference a puppet state? When I was younger I took it as more of a "I won't be his entertainment" kind of deal since I didn't know the term. I'm sure there are lots more examples!
