Final Fantasy XIII scan - Image 1Talk about “adding some volume” to the stringy cast of Final Fantasy XIII (PS3, Xbox 360). The latest issue of V-Jump reveals a new character to join Lightning, Snow, and Vanille’s party: Sazh Kalzroy. And for once, we can finally recognize a Square Enix character as being most definitely male! (Oh my, a non-androgynous SE character – has hell frozen over?)

First off, he’s got an afro – something that’s totally breaking barriers on Tetsuya Nomura‘s part in usually going for the “typically androgynous and usually spikey-haired” side of character design.

Sazh is described as someone who likes the color green (see the coat?) and is fond of chocobos (hence the chick). As if taking a page from FF12‘s Balthier, he’s not only giving off this “ladies’ man” vibe, but is also wielding a pistol – no, two pistols, actually.
