Keeping with series tradition, XIII will include an incarnation of ubiquitous character Cid.

Bearing the surname Raines, Cid makes an appearance in the upcoming and role-playing epic as a Sanctum military officer and commander of an airship fleet.

He's markedly younger than previous incarnations of the character, most notably Cid del Norte Marguez of Final Fantasy VI who passed away on a remote island after caring for magicite-infused rebel Celes Chere after Kefka's apocalyptic takeover. Cid Kramer, headmaster of Balamb Garden was also older in Final Fantasy VIII, as was Cid, Balthier's father in Final Fantasy XII.

You can check out Cid Raines youthful new look when Final Fantasy XIII arrives on March 9.

    You forgot Cid from FFVII ;) Don't remember his last name though.

    In FFIX Cid is the ruler of some country.

    You've also forgot the albed leader in FFX Cid. Yuna's uncle.
