Biography[]
Lightning is a young woman with long, light pink hair, and pale aqua-colored eyes. Lightning's eye color has been officially addressed as blue, though in the FMVs and promotional art they often appear green due to green aspects around the pupil. InFinal Fantasy XIII, she wears a variation of the standard Guardian Corpsuniform. A green metallic pauldron over her left shoulder bearing yellow stripes symbolizes her previous rank as a sergeant. She carries her gunblade in a black case which hangs off her belt, and wears a necklace with a lightning bolt pendant. Her l'Cie brand is located slightly above her left breast. Lightning is determined, concentrated and independent. Initially, she is cold and standoffish, distancing herself from her companions. Much of her motivation is fueled from what she perceives as failing to protect Serah and wanting to make things right, which leads her to lash out at those she believes are responsible for that and the subsequentPurge: namely, the Sanctum, its fal'Cie and, to a point, Snow Villiers, due to his relationship with Serah and his failure to protect her as he promised. Over time, Lightning begins to show compassion and trust others, and sees the errors in her approach.

Gameplay[]
Lightning is a quick and agile physical attack specializing in aerial combos. He fights using a mixture of his Webbing and his fighting ability. Lightning majors in the Commando, Ravager and Medic roles. Compared to most of her companions she has high physical and magical attack stats (the second highest attack stat behind Fang, and tied for the second highest magic stat with Vanille), making her best role the Commando due effectively using both Attacks and Ruin spells of an equal and high level of power, although her weapons give the lowest stat boosts. Lightning has relatively low HP gain compared to the others and when everyone's stats are maxed out, only Hope will have less HP than her. Magic-wise, Lightning is utilitarian, able to use all four elemental "-strike" attacks, all elemental magic to the "-Ra" rank, as well as Thundaga. Lightning's Full ATB Skill, Army of One, increases the target's stagger gauge based on the current chain count. She is also a skilled offensive Synergist, learning all of the basic protection spell save Veil and learning the "En-" series of spells. Despite her low HP, Lightning can be a surprisingly good Sentinel, she learns all of the role's Auto-Abilities, and when pairing the Elude Ability with the Nimbletoe Boots, she can avoid a large amount of damage from enemies.
