Garnet Til Alexandros XVII is a fictional character in the Final Fantasy series and one of the protagonists of Final Fantasy IX. She is the princess of the kingdom of Alexandria and one of the lead characters. In this game, she is trying to escape her kingdom and joins with her kidnappers, including protagonist Zidane Tribal, to do so. She assumes the pseudonym Dagger and cuts her hair, at which point the writers began to treat her as a different character while writing her. In time, she discovers herself adopted, having come from a village of summoners.

Her original concept art was created by Yoshitaka Amano, while the final version was handled by Toshiyuki Itahana, as well as Shukou Murase and Shin Nagasawa, who handled the in-game version of the character. Her design was meant to strike a balance between realism and a comic-like style, taking inspiration from the characters in the film The Dark Crystal. She appears in multiple other Final Fantasy games, including Theatrhythm Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy Record Keeper, and Dissidia Final Fantasy: Opera Omnia. Garnet received praise from critics as a standout of Final Fantasy IX s cast, ranking highly as a female character in the Final Fantasy series. Her romantic and familial relationships have also been the subject of discussion from critics, both positively and negatively.
