Squall Leonhart
Age: 17
Height: 177 cm.
Quote from EGM
"Squall is a poker-faced, short-spoken man who carries a unique sword known as the "Gunblade." That is, unless the subject at hand is one he's interested in, at which point he's known to become quite lively and outspoken. He's a bit of a loner (according to Square he has "little sense of comradship for the people around him"), and he wears a necklace that bears a strange griffon-like symbol (the same on that can be seen near the barrel on the Gunblade). According to character designer Tetsuya Nomura, he wanted the character's name to have the meaning of a passing shower, which is how he came up with the name Squall. His last name, Leonhart, was the name of one of the main characters from an earlier 8-bit Final Fantasy (for the Famicon) which never came to the United States. This isn't the first time Square has brought back names from earlier games in the series..."
Laguna Loire
Age: 27
Height: 181 cm.
Quote from EGM
"Unlike Squall, Laguna is a man of heart. He knows love and respects his duties. According to Square, he's an optimistic and vigerous person who enjoys the confidence bestowed in him by those around him. Not much else is known about him yet, but we do know that he's a former soldier who now works as a journalist. Apparently, Laguna and Squall, while both main characters, reside on different worlds. How their paths will cross hasn't yet been revealed, but the idea of possibly playing with two entirely different characters from the outset is quite attractive. Whatever the case, we'll know more on this as it develops. According to Nomura-san, the inspiration for the name Laguna came from none other than Laguna Beach, Calif., as well as the powerful sword Ragnarok (which, when broken down phonetically in Japanese sounds a bit like "La-gu-na-ro-k")."
Zell or Zeru
I've heard both names, so I put both in. He wears blue shorts and "sports" a blonde mohawke. He appears for a few seconds in the video and he is also shown in a few pictures like the one above. From what I've seen it appears he works with Squall or knows him from the "Garden" (thats what I've heard the tall "West Point" building was called) Becuase when he is shown in the video he is shown fighting. Not much at all is known about this character.
Lenore
VERY little is known about Lenore. Known is that she wears a blue dress as seen in the above pic and in the E3 movie when Squall jumps in slow motion towards her. It is also odvious that she will be a love interest to probably Squall. Like I said almost nothing is known about Lenore.
