Lord Braska High Summoner Braska , also known as Lord Braska or simply Braska , is a non - player character from " Final Fantasy X " . He is Yuna ' s father , Cid ' s brother - in - law , and Rikku and Brother ' s uncle . He became a high summoner by defeating Sin ten years before the events of " Final Fantasy X " . Profile . Appearance . At the age of 35 , Braska was a tall man who likely had dark hair , and blue eyes , from which Yuna inherited her one blue eye . He is dressed in an elaborate robe of red and two dark shades of purplish red . The robe is made of broad overlapping petals or leaves that fall in points , and has long wide sleeves that fall to cover the hands . The upper part of the chest is tan , and has a tall folded over collar , held closed by dark strings . Over the robe is a wide gray sash covered with a design of connecting circles and lines in black and white . The sign on his sash is the letter " A " in Yevon alphabets , which symbolizes Yevon . Braska wears an elaborate headdress that resembles Arabian head - wraps or desert headgear . It is dark blue , covering his head and falling looser round the front under his chin . It is held in place by a white band with a black line in the middle , surmounted by a blue stone in the front center and three horn like pieces — one white with a black line in the middle , set behind the stone , from which trails a long white band , ending a black and white circle and a scalloped piece , and two longer white - gray ones on either temple . On each side hangs a large pale blue tassel held by a black - and - white bead . Personality . Braska was a kind , cheerful man , desiring peace unity and willing to sacrifice his life for the future of the world . He loved his wife , never caring that she was Al Bhed , and the only regrets he probably ever had in marrying her was that she was disowned by her brother Cid , that she was shunned by the other Al Bhed in addition to the rest of Spira , who disliked Al Bhed ; and that their daughter was disregarded by Yevon ites and Al Bhed alike . Though he had accepted that upon the Final Summoning he would die , Braska cared for his guardians , Auron and Jecht , his best friends . Story . Braska was a priest of Bevelle who visited the Al Bhed in the hopes of furthering relations with them and the Yevonites . He fell in love , and when he was 27 , eloped with the younger sister of Cid , the Al Bhed leader . When Yevon discovered the miscegenation , Braska was cast out of the clergy , and his wife was disowned by Cid , though tensions on both sides lessened after Yuna ' s birth . When Yuna was four years old , her mother traveled to Bikanel to mend the ties with her family , but her ship was attacked by Sin and she was killed . Braska resolved to become a summoner and defeat Sin to stop anyone else from suffering as he did . The priests of Bevelle and many other Yevonites looked down on him because of his choice of bride and half - breed daughter , and did not believe he could complete the pilgrimage . Braska chose Auron and Jecht as his guardians , as they , too , were held in similar regard . On the slopes of Mt . Gagazet , Braska left a video sphere for Yuna , letting her know that whatever path she chose for her life , he would be proud . At the end of his pilgrimage Braska learned the Final Aeon was created by sacrificing one of his guardians to be made into a fayth . He did not want to choose , but Jecht insisted to become Braska ' s Final Aeon . Braska asked Auron to watch over Yuna , wanting her future to be peaceful and happy since he would not be there , and Jecht made the same request for his son Tidus . After Braska sacrificed his life for the Final Summoning , his spirit descended into the Farplane and a statue of him was raised in each of the temples of Yevon in Spira , although during the events of " Final Fantasy X " , a monk in the Besaid Temple tells the party it took more than ten years for the temple there to receive a statue of Braska following his rise to high summoner . Yuna decides to follow her father ' s footsteps in becoming a summoner and defeating Sin , and witnesses a ghostly vision of him on the Farplane while passing through Guadosalam . She finds the movie spheres left behind by Braska during his pilgrimage . When she reaches Yunalesca in Zanarkand Dome and learns one of her guardians must be made fayth for the Final Aeon , she rejects the rite . Yunalesca tries to persuade Yuna by saying Braska had gladly sacrificed a guardian alongside himself to give Spira short respite from Sin , but Yuna disagrees , saying Braska had wanted to free Spira , not perpetuate its cycle of suffering in knowing Sin will be reborn . Having viewed the spheres Braska had left for her , and her conviction of her father ' s will in wanting to free Spira , Yuna has the strength to reject the Final Summoning and find another way of defeating Sin without using a Final Aeon . Braska makes a minor appearance in " Final Fantasy X - 2 " , where he , together with Auron and Jecht , give inspiring words to Yuna and the Gullwings in the final battle against Vegnagun and Shuyin .
