During development, he has described her as "not very feminine". Lightning wields a combination of a gun and a sword and can also manipulate gravity with a device on her thumb. Her voice-actor in the Japanese version is Mayaa Sakamoto Her English Voice actor is yet to be told.

Snow Villiers

He is a big character and is capable of running while carrying two people. He was nicknamed "Mr. 33 cm" by the staff of Final Fantasy XIII as a nod to his shoe size. In the October 2008 issue of Weekly Shonen Jump magazine, it is revealed that he uses a power that is related to the tattoo on his left forearm.

Snow is a fighter class character. In other words he uses his fists to take down opponents. Compared to the fast and agile Lightning, Snow
focuses more on power and strength. In the Japanese version of the game, he is voiced by .Daisuke Ono English Voice actor is also not yet known

Oerba Dia Vanille

Sazh Katzroy 

Sazh was first featured in V-Jump Magazine. He is a middle-aged man with an afro who Lightning knows from her time serving in the military. Sazh wields dual pistols, his strong point is striking enemies from a distance. He is a good combination with the close-range Lightning. He has a baby Chocobo as a pet that appears to live in his afro. He is described as a middle-aged man with good judgment and moral discernment. He has a
gentle personality and is easily moved to tears, and joins the party early in the game. His voice-actor in the Japanese version is Masashi Ebara.

Hope Estheim 

Hope is a fourteen-year-old boy with silvery-blonde hair and orange, yellow, and green clothing. He uses boomerangs in battle. He is first seen in the game demo wearing the same Purge attire as Vanille, when his mother offers to help Snow and Team Nora fight off PSICOM. She dies during the battle, and though Snow honors her final request to protect her son, Hope nonetheless hates Snow for his connection to her death. In the game, 

Hope is seen arguing with Snow about helping the l'Cie.He is later seen with Vanille fighting off a horde of Cie Corpses.

Oebra Yun fang

A raven-haired woman who comes from Oerba Village, donning clothing resembling the traditional Indian Sari adorned with tribal accessories, and bearing the mark of a l'Cie on her left shoulder. Though she is a l'Cie from Pulse, she originally works for the Cocoon Sanctum under Cid. It later turns out she is one of the two l'Cie given the focus to summon Ragnarok. She wields a spear that can transform into a sansetsukon in battle, and her Eidolon is Bahamut, who can take flight in his Gestalt-mode. As revealed by Tetsuya Nomura in an interview, during the early stages of development she was originally scripted to be a male character.

Looks like no random battles this time, the system works like in FFXII but with ATB/CTB, which is great! I don't like one thing though, from what I've seen, the damage numbers are jumping like crazy, same was in FFX-2. It's a bit a mess. What I mean is they attack so fast so you don't understand.

And what about that baby chocobo in the third trailer?

[Roxas598]

Sazh breeds chocobo but they are not a form of transportation in 13 that saddens me

So they are all telling DIFFERENT STORIES ???????
