In Final Fantasy XVI, Titan is the colossal Eikon of Earth, introduced at the Battle of Nysa. He’s named after the Titans of Greek myth - gods who preceded the Olympians. Among them was Atlas, a ferocious leader sentenced to hold up the sky, then turned into a mountain.

In Norse mythology, the chief deity Odin often wanders among men in disguise. One such disguise is believed to be a boatman named Hárbard (Greybeard). This is reflected in Final Fantasy XVI, where the silver-haired Harbard is an "extension" of Barnabas, the Dominant of Odin.

In the Christian Bible, Jesus visits Martha and performs a miracle to restore her brother Lazarus to life, signifying Christ's power over death. This is why FFXVI's Rosaria - whose Eikon is Phoenix, the resurrection bird - contains both the Lazarus District and Martha's Rest.

The Völsunga saga, a famous Norse epic, includes the hero Sigurd slaying a wingless dragon named Fáfnir. He was once a man, cursed for murdering his father, Hreidmarr, to claim his gold. Fafnir of the North is fought during FFXVI, as is the larger Hreidmar dragon in a DLC.

In Chinese culture, the dragon (loong) and phoenix (fenghuang) can symbolise justice and loyalty, especially in the imperial household. When seen together, they represent opposing and balancing forces. This is reflected in FFXVI when Phoenix rises to quell Bahamut’s rampage.

In Hindu cosmology, the primary role of Lord Shiva is to destroy the impure universe so that it can be reborn. This is reflected in Final Fantasy XVI's Jill, the Dominant of Shiva, who helps Clive to destroy the harmful Mothercrystals so they can rebuild a better world for all.

In Greek myth, the god Dionysus is associated with winemaking, conquering death, and leading a retinue of beings that were once people. This mirrors Genesis, who commands an army of mutated SOLDIERs, is believed to have been resurrected, and invented Banora White apple juice.

In Norse mythology, Nidhögg is a dragon who lives in the main spring of Niflheim, responsible for punishing the spirits of murderers. Nibelheim’s inn in FFVII Rebirth - located by the water tower - is called the Nidhogg Hotel, where Sephiroth stays before slaying the townsfolk.
