Lunafreya Nox Fleuret (ルナフレーナ・ノックス・フルーレ, Runafurēna Nokkusu Furūre, Lunafrena Nox Fleuret), "Luna" (ルーナ, Rūna) for short, is a character from the Final Fantasy video game series made by Square Enix. She is a central character in Final Fantasy XV (2016), originally a spin-off title called Final Fantasy Versus XIII, a prominent character in the game's associated media, and has made appearances in mobile projects within the Final Fantasy franchise. Lunafreya is the Oracle, a powerful figure in the game's world of Eos who communes with its deities, the Astrals. Originally engaged to main protagonist Noctis Lucis Caelum as part of a political marriage, she remotely helps Noctis's quest to become the True King of legend and save their world from darkness.
Lunafreya was created by director Hajime Tabata to replace another character, the similarly named Stella Nox Fleuret, during story rewrites between 2012 and 2014. She was designed by Yusuke Naora, with her design being influenced by Tabata's concept of a woman handling responsibilities from a young age. While voiced by Amy Shiels and Rina Kitagawa in the game, Lena Headey and Shioli Kutsuna voiced her in the film Kingsglaive (2016). Lunafreya has met with generally mixed to negative reactions from critics, with many faulting her portrayal and limited role in the game, often being mentioned as part of criticism surrounding its supporting cast. Her role in expanded media has likewise seen mixed reactions for her inconsistent portrayal.
