How to Acquire the Raiden Esper in Final Fantasy 6
The deity Odin makes frequent appearances in the various Final Fantasy games. In Final Fantasy 6 he appears as a petrified Esper who is able to teach the party the use of the "meteor" spell. Like in several other games in the series, the party can find a way to upgrade Odin into a more powerful form, this time into a horseman wielding a massive sword named Raiden.

Tips & Warnings
The Raiden Esper can be used to teach a character the "Quick" spell, which allows a party member to use any two actions immediately before the rest of the party or the enemy has the opportunity to react.
If you use Raiden directly in battle, he will use the "True Edge" spell, which will defeat all the enemies in one hit. Because it is so powerful, the spell only has a limited chance of working each time it's cast.
Be sure you have used the Odin Esper to have several characters learn the "Meteor" spell before upgrading him to the Raiden Esper, because there is only one other Esper in the game capable of teaching that spell.
