Final Fantasy XIII Main Characters

Lightning

This solitary young woman speaks little of herself-even her true name is a mystery. She is known to others simply as "Lightning."

Quote: "You want quiet, you'd better take the next train."

Snow Villiers

An irrepressible, fiery young man, Snow dives headfirst into danger using nothing but his powerful physique as a weapon. Easily swayed by emotion, he is prone to rash words and actions. Nonetheless, many are won over by his outgoing and optimistic nature.

Quote: "Our focus is to protect Cocoon."

Serah Farron

Serah is Lightning's younger sister, and Snow's fiancée. Possessing an inner fortitude beyond her years, she is more capable of making her own decisions, whatever her somewhat overprotective sister might think. In fact, Serah spends just as much time worrying about her elder sibling's well-being as Lightning does Serah's.

Quote: "The point is, I have people I can count on. I'll make it through."

Oerba Dia Vanille

Vanille is an endearing young woman with a relentlessly sunny disposition. Her bright personality gives no hint of the dark resolve that lies within.

Quote: "The Pulse Fal'Cie. It held our future and our fate."

Hope Estheim

Hope is a normal boy from a normal family whose childhood on Cocoon can best be described as uneventful. Inexperienced in the ways of the world, and wont to turn to his mother for protection, he is completely unprepared for the turmoil into which his life is thrown when he is unexpectedly caught up in the Sanctum's brutal Purge.

Quote: "Why do you want to help a L'Cie? They're the enemy!"

Oerba Yun Fang

Fang is a mysterious young woman who is working with the Sanctum military despite bearing the mark of the detested L'Cie. Strong minded and disinclined to mince words, she has the demeanour of someone wholly unconcerned by life's trivialities.

Quote: "If I were you, I'd worry about myself."

Sazh Katzroy

Sazh is a friendly, cheerful man who is never without his curious companions- a Chocobo chick and a pair of pistols. He is quick to banter, but also keeps a mature perspective on matters. Uncontrollable events have set him on the current path, but another purpose compels him to walk it.

Quote: "Chocobo, we just can't catch a break, can we?"
