Name: Squall Leonheart
Age: 17
Squall is the hero of Final Fantasy 8, the first Final Fantasy title I ever owned. Squall is seen by the other characters as a lone wolf and moody. He doesn't make friends easily because he'd rather be alone after his big "sister" Ellone left the orphanage. Due to the use of the summon monsters known as Guardian Forces, Squall and his friends who grew up in the orphanage began to lose their memories, which comes later on in the story. With the help of Rinoa Heartilly, Squall begins to open up to others and they see that he really does care about them. Squall's weapon of choice is the gunblade. He and Seifer Almasy are the only two gunbladists in the military academy they attend.
Throughout the story, we find hints at Squall's past that even he doesn't realize. His parents are the lovely Raine, who works as a bartender in Winhill, and the journalist-turned-president of Esthar, Laguna Loire. You can see a little bit of each of them in Squall's face, Raine's features are more prominent than Laguna's. Many events had led Squall to Edea Kramer's orphanage, which is how he met most of the party members in the group and how he was sent to the military school known as Balamb Garden. Before Edea was possessed and left the orphanage, she was the mother figure to all the children, and they affectionately called her "Matron".
