Final Fantasy VIII

Zell

Zell joins the team for the first Dollet SeeD Exam early on in the game. He uses his fists for closed-quarters combat and his gloves are his weapons. He tends to be one of the more temperamental of the group members and probably the least mature but he certainly grows as the game moves forward.

He has a weird passion for the hotdogs served in the Balamb Garden cafeteria and he is originally from the town of Balamb located close to the Garden. You can visit his house and meet his Ma while you are there.
