  • Video Game / Final Fantasy VIII Probably justified in that she's unavailable for most of Disc 3 and will rejoin you at a level close to your average party level.
  • Master Swordsman There's a good reason that, in one of these games, you don't get him until pretty close to the end, and in the other, he spends about 2/3 of it unavailable to your party because he's on some 'secret mission'.
