Comments: Locke Cole is fiercely proud and respects indi- vidualism. His past is marred by the untimely death of his girlfriend, an event that has had great impact on his subsequent adventures. He deeply regrets his inability to save her and will always hold the Establishment responsible for the tragic even, the details of which are unknown to all but Locke himself.

Locke is charming and outgoing, he has always made friends easily. Moreover, because of the loss of his love, he tenaciously protective of his companions, especially Celes, which makes him an excellent party member. Locke's treasure-hunting ability is also of great value to other members of the party. Though some would call him a thief because of his special ability to steal from enemies while fighting, Locke would take exception to that classi- fication. He is proud of what he does. His Motto, "The Treasure Hunter who goes everywhere will find old treasure," is more than a catchy phrase, it is Locke Cole's way of life. When he has the Thief Glove on, Locke's Steal command becomes Capture, which enables him to rob monsters of money instead of items, with excellent results. As the adventure progresses, he will also develop the ability to pick locks, which is essential to the success of the mission.
