Yang Fang Leiden is a fictional, playable character from the Square Co., Ltd. RPG Final Fantasy IV. He is a very composed man who serves as the High Monk of Fabul. From a young age, Yang trained intensively until he became the most powerful martial artist among his peers. Despite his high position among the Fabul monks, Yang does not bask in his glory, and keeps his dignity.

Yang enters the story of Final Fantasy IV when he meets Cecil Harvey, Rosa Farrell, Edward Chris von Muir, and Rydia on Mt. Hobs. Yang is fighting off a swarm of enemies when Cecil and the others decide to help. After defeating the enemies, Yang tells the party that he was training on the mountain with his men, though all of them were killed by monsters. Cecil warns Yang that the villain Golbez may be coming after Fabul to steal the Wind Crystal.

With Fabul's finest warriors killed, Cecil and Edward offer to help Yang defend Fabul if Golbez's attack. Sure enough, Baron's forces, led by Golbez and Cecil's friend Kain Highwind, do attack. Kain defeats the party, and Golbez takes the Crystal and kidnaps Rosa. The next day, Cecil, Rydia, Edward, and Yang set sail for Baron in hopes of rescuing their friend. However, they are shipwrecked by the sea monster Leviathan and are separated.

Yang winds up in Baron, where he is brainwashed by soldiers. When he reunites with Cecil (this time with friends Tellah, Palom, and Porom), a fight ensues. After Cecil and the others defeat Yang, the monk regains his memory. They then infiltrate Baron's castle, where they defeat the knight Baigan and the Water Fiend Cagnazzo, who was disguised as the king. When they are about to leave the castle, however, Cagnazzo uses the last of his power to close in the walls of the castle, trying to squash the heroes. Palom and Porom turn themselves into stone to protect the other party members.

Yang remains with Cecil for much of the quest. However, in the Tower of Babil, Yang sacrifices his life to save the party from the Super Canon. Later, however, they find that he was rescued by the Sylph fairies of the Underworld. Yang later participates in the battles against Golbez's forces in the Underworld. His prayers give Cecil's party the vitality they need before fighting Zemus in the final battle.

Skills

Power

By using the Power command (sometimes called Gather), Yang gathers energy to perform an attack with double the strength the next turn. This command causes more damage than two physical attacks, because his power has a double power damage, but the enemy defense does not. In the Game Boy Advance version, it can be upgraded to Deadly, upon completing Yang's Lunar Trial, in which the attack does triple damage instead of double.

Kick

Yang Kicks all enemies, inflicting minimal damage.

Bear

Using the Bear command (sometimes called Endure or Gird) raises Yang's defense. It is the equivalent of using the white magic spell Protect without costing MP (though he cannot use it on any other party member).
