"You think you die and everything will be sugar and rainbows?!"
—Sazh to Vanille
"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 his current path, but another purpose compels him to walk it."
—Online Description


Sazh Katzroy is a player character from Final Fantasy XIII. He is a dark-skinned middle-aged man with an afro dressed in tan, and is described as a sympathetic and kind man who is easily moved to tears. At Gamescom 2009 it was revealed that Sazh has a six-year old son, Dajh. His wife died three years prior to the events of the game.

Sazh will have the most lines in the game, and is supposed to be different from any other character in the series.

[edit] Story

Sazh is a professional airship pilot from Cocoon, and knows Lightning from their time spent together serving PSICOM. He becomes an l'Cie along with the rest of the main cast of the game, when they go meet the Pulse fal'Cie.

The baby Chocobo

Sazh is accompanied by a baby Chocobo that lives in his afro. Sazh bought the Chocobo for his son Dajh as a gift during a trip. The baby Chocobo has only just been born, and can barely fly yet. It is said that the bird actually accompanies him into battle, though if it plays a gameplay function is currently unknown.

Sazh Katzroy holds a grudge against the Sanctum, because Dajh was "turned into a crystal" by one of its officials, Jihl Nabaat. Jihl shows no mercy in interrogating Sazh when he is later arrested. Saving Dajh is Sazh's main motivation in the game.


[edit] Abilities

Sazh with Brynhildr

Sazh joins the party early in the game, and fights with two pistols that can transform into an assault rifle. He can shoot with his guns from a range, but also use them in melee combat. He also has access to Fire magic.

At the Final Fantasy XIII Premiere Party, his Eidolon was revealed to be Brynhildr, a female fire-elemental knight original to this game who can turn into a race car in her Gestalt Mode.

[edit] Trivia

  • In an interview with the Shonen Jump magazine, Yoshinori Kitase stated that Sazh was modeled after the American singer Lionel Richie.
