Squall Leonhart
Age: 
17
Height: 
5'10"
Weapon: 
Gunblade
Description: 
Squall is an expressionless and distant teenager studying in the military and academic areas of Balamb Garden. An extremely gifted and apt student, Squall hopes to join the elite SeeD forces by passing the entrance test along with his companions. Squall is most likely the rigid man standing in the game's logo. Will Squall open up emotionally in a game with "love" as one of the major themes?

Laguna Loire

Shotgun
Description: 
Laguna Loire has been painted as a friendly and outgoing 27-year-old who has earned the respect of those around him. Originally a soldier, Laguna changed professions and became a journalist. Laguna has a generous, but righteous streak, and is not afraid to stand up and fight for what he believes in.
 
Name: 
Rinoa Heartilly
Age: 
17
Height: 
5'4"
Weapon: 
Blaster Edge
Description: 
Rinoa is described as a pleasant, empathetic young woman who tends to be a tad shy at times. Her strength of character and spirit are firm, however. Joining the other characters, she is believed to be a candidate for SeeD. Rinoa is almost unmistakably the female character embracing the man in the game's logo.

Zell Dincht
Age: 
17
Height: 
5'6"
Weapon: 
Gloves
Description: 
Zell is a spunky and exuberant Garden student attempting membership for SeeD along with his friends. Unfortunately, his enthusiasm sometimes gets the better of him, and he may spout of words he later regrets. Zell's grandfather was reportedly a famous soldier, and Zell strives to match that image.
 
Name: 
Seifer Almasy
Age: 
18
Height: 
6'2"
Weapon: 
Gunblade
Description: 
Seifer is a serious, grim man who shares a deep rivalry with Squall. For reasons unknown (and speculated broadly), Seifer seems to have an intense dislike for Squall and tries to prove his superiority whenever possible. Both men share a scar on their foreheads, obtained from a training session duel where Seifer pulled the trigger on the Gunblade. Squall reacted and pulled at the same time, supposedly from shock.
