These charts list character and party information for Final Fantasy
1-13. Includes classes and FULL names (who remembered FF4 characters
even had last names?). The first chart is a sample showing the format.
In this version I've added weapons where appropriate (FF 4,7,8,9,10 and
13).
SPOILER ALERT:
some of these characters are considered "secret" - I've listed all
significant playable characters for FF 1-13.
