Final Fantasy IX/Playable Characters

Zidane Tribal
As a thief, Zidane has the ability to steal items from most enemies. Doing so is an invaluable way to generate income, stock up on needed healing items, and build up an inventory of weapons and armor for equipping and synthesizing. Zidane can also use 'Skill' abilities, which exploit his nimble nature for various effects.

Garnet Til Alexandros XVII
Her highness can summon powerful monsters to deal massive damage to enemies, though doing so consumes massive amounts of MP. The princess can also cast White Magic to heal and protect party members.

Vivi Ornitier
Vivi's black magic can be inflicted upon enemies for large amounts of often-elemental damage. When in the party alongside Steiner, Vivi activates Steiner's Magic Sword capabilities.

Adelbert Steiner
Steiner has the ability to pair up with Vivi for a "Magic Sword" attack, adding a magical element to Steiner's physical attack. Used most effectively when casting a spell that is the monster's elemental weakness.
