That's kind of funny, because Al-Cid I thought was just weird. Like Arabic, with an Italian accent.

There was some black blitzer in X.
Wait, you mean he doesn't use a Mac-10?!?!
Sorry, that was in bad taste.
I always felt his sprite looked white but then I read he was black and after seeing his portrait I just stuck with it as he does look dark skinned but it's rather hard to confirm it. He's certainly not the "Whitest White guy" lol- that would be the horrible characters in Advent Children. They make albino Setzer looked tanned. Did Square spend all their money on the SFX that they couldn't afford colours and had to make do with shades of white and grey?If by Black, you mean, Whitest White guy who's 100% white in color and heritage. Then yes, Leo is in fact Black.
Somebody mentioned that Sazh looks about like Lando from Star Wars. That's fine with me! He was awesome and didn't fall into the jive talking stereotype that Barret did. Do any of the announced characters so far use a sword or anything though? It all seems to be guns.
Wait they said somewhere he was black? I don't recall it in the game, was it elsewhere?
Well I haven't paid much attention to the game thus far, but Lightning I think uses a gun sword or at least I recall her having a sword in the first trailer way back.Do any of the announced characters so far use a sword or anything though? It all seems to be guns.
And I somehow don't see Vanille using a gun, but that's just me. But what little I've seen she hasn't been shown with any weapons thus far.

This guy is pretty darn cool with the chocobo in his afro etc.
I think there will be another 'macho' type male character who will be close range, to compensate for the party so far.

I'm still thinking each character has a ranged and melee weapon. Like Lightning has her weird Gunblade-ish thing, and stuff.
I'm digging the crazy names they keep thinking up.
Traditionally, looking back at history, while melee troops may well only have melee weapons, ranged attackers would typically have melee weapons as well, due to reloading times, e.g. rifle brigades during the Napoleonic Wars, longbowmen during the Hundred Years' War, etc.
When you can take a bullet to the head/ parry one with your sword it kind of throws every real world combat theory out the window. So they can safely make combat revolve around whatever axiom they think is the coolest.
