EX

The EX, short for Edelian Xreva, is an Edelian military force in Final Fantasy XVI. Commanded by High Commander Shern, General Declarus Avgani, and Commander Baron Remlet, EX is a massive empirical military force founded by Gistal Praan in order to achieve their primary goal of obtaining the time artifact known as the Tempus.

The EX are comprised of full-fledged mechanical or human soldiers clad in black striped white colored full plated armor in battle. The EX primarily are known for their machine gun rifles and menacing bioweapons, while combining various dark magics to formulate their army. Most soldiers are identified with the Edelian empire badge or tag, and their helmet's eyes are riddled with a glowing goldenrod color.

Xreva (prounounced S-reh-va) is wordplay on the word 'rival,' defined to be Corselia's primary rival.
