Ben Starr is the English voice actor for Clive Rosfield in Final Fantasy 16, both in his teenage and adult years. His JP voice actor, on the other hand, is Yuya Uchida.
The firstborn son of the Archduke of Rosaria. Though all expected him to inherit the Phoenix's flames and awaken as its Dominant, destiny instead chose his younger brother Joshua to bear this burden. In search of a role of his own, Clive dedicated himself to mastering the blade.
Clive is seen as being able to transform into the Eikon called Ifrit and he is also able to channel Ifrit's powers. Other Dominants can also transform into the Eikons that are bound to them.
Dominants Explained: What are Dominants?
Clive cannot transform into other Eikons. He can only channel their abilities and use them in his human form or semi-prime form using Limit Break.

Combat Guide |

|
Swordplay is Clive's bread and butter; most of the game's combat will be spent going right up against enemies and hacking at them with your sword.
Clive will be able to learn different abilities from all the Eikons he encounters in the game. These abilities are elemental abilities that give your sword attacks different properties, from fire-based attacks to hyper-speed slashes that send you dashing across the field. Clive can also learn offensive magical abilities that have range and area of effect.
Clive will be able to use all abilities he's learned in battle, so you can string together very different abilities to inflict various forms of damage and while staying flashy at the same time.
Enemies can be kept vulnerable in the air with various air combos, so make sure to use air combos to your advantage to get enemies' health down before they have a chance to react.
You will be able to control various Eikons in large-scale cinematic battles that vary in gameplay depending on which Eikon you're controlling. There will be shoot-em-up battles, large-scale Eikon brawls, and more to be revealed.
