Squall, or Leon if you prefer his Kingdom Hearts persona, is everyone's favorite orphan. Love him or hate him, you can't deny his skill with a gunblade. Try as he might to distance himself from others, he can't help but draw people to him, be it sorceresses or gun-slinging ladies men. Squall quests to figure out who he is rather than to save the world; he just happens to do that in the process.
Squall is strongest when his feet are planted firmly on solid ground. The majority of skills he learns are ground-based, although he has a few decent air assaults for when the need arises. He is also capable of casting a few simple magical spells.
His two main HP attacks, Fated Circle and Aerial Circle, are surprisingly powerful. Creating a ring of explosions all around him, a well-timed attack can even strike enemies behind him. To make them more devastating, they also serve as a magical shield, repelling enemy spells, and can even draw foes inwards to get caught in the blast.
While in EX-Mode, Squall's Gunblade gains significantly more power. Its range is increased, and the blows it strikes are more powerful. His Renzokuken EX-Burst works much the same as his Gunblade did in Final Fantasy VIII. By timing the trigger correctly, each slash is accompanied by a powerful gunshot.
