Final Fantasy Record Keeper
Template:Sideicon

Character profile.
Zidane is a playable character who could be recruited during the Challenge Event A Place to Call Home as the First Time Reward for completing the event's stage Conde Petie Mountain Path on the Classic difficulty. He has also appeared in Someone to Protect, A Summoner Reborn, Angel of Death, and Show of Resolve as a supporting character.
- Assessment
Zidane is a Tantalus Player, whose combat role is Physical Speed.
As most of the characters known to be Thieves, Zidane possesses aptitudes in a broad variety of weapons and skills, and he has a strong enough Attack stat to use all of them well. Being a Speed fighter, his HP and Defense are somewhat low if not average for the class. That being the case, he will need a good piece of light armor to keep him from taking too much damage in battle. Zidane is a master of both the Thief and Celerity skill groups, which places him ahead of Tidus in his ability to cripple an attacking enemy party.
