Birthdate

March 17th

Growing up as an undisciplined "rich boy", Zell joined the Balamb Military Academy at the ripe age of 13 to follow in his grandfather's footsteps as a proud and powerful soldier. His honor and integrity fit his military ideals like a glove. Though he may be short tempered, Zell does possess a thick sense-of-humor. Through his rough attitude and stagnant experience, Zell is a martial arts master and powerful warrior.
