Xenogears: An Eye for the Infinite
Meet the Gazel Ministry: In the game, the ministers have no text designation, and can only be distinguished by their appearance. The compiler of the Xenogears Script gave them color-by-number designations, and to the best of my understanding, name-to-minister actually breaks down as shown below. If this isn't consistent with the Xenogears Script, it is, at least, consistant throughout this site. Barring copyist's errors, of course.


Blue 1 Blue 2 Blue 3 Blue 4




Red 1 Red 2 Red 3 Red 4

Believe it or not, it is not entirely pointless to attempt to distinguish between the 8 Ministers. You may note in the dialogue, for example, that the one I designate Blue 1 says the first and last line in most of the Ministry conversations. Further examination reveals that Blue 1 is, without doubt, the ringleader. He always has the last word. Closer examination may reveal personality traits for the other ministers as well, but I haven't looked into it. Yet.
