A young man from another world where sorceresses pass their power down through the ages. Squall detests interacting with others, and often isolates himself. Regardless, he is a star pupil at Balamb Garden, a military academy founded for the purpose of training its students to shoulder the burdens of tomorrow. He also boasts of having passed the entrance exam required to join the elite mercenary force known as SeeD. The scar he bears on his face was the result of a blow from his classmate and rival during a training match.
