A gambler from another world where magic and espers once lived. As owner of the airship known as the Blackjack, Setzer has spent most of his time gambling his life away, quite literally. He had planned to kidnap the famous opera star Maria to make her his bride, but his plans were foiled when she was replaced with Celes as part of her group's efforts against the empire. Although he sees through the farce, and the coin trick she performs for him, he still decides to keep his promise to help her.

| 6★ | A gambler from another world where magic and espers once lived. Setzer built a casino on his beloved ship, the Blackjack, as a symbol of his carefree lifestyle. After meeting Celes and being impressed by the way in which she tried to deceive him, he decided to help her and her friends in their efforts against the empire. His airship may have granted the group great mobility, but Kefka's eventual destruction of the world would also result in the unfortunate loss of the Blackjack. |

Phased by these events, he turns to alcohol to avoid the harsh reality until he is reunited with Celes, who manages to convince him to rejoin their cause. Together they visit the tomb of Setzer's close friend Darill, where they dig out the remains of her old airship, the Falcon, in hopes of using it as transport. Soaring the skies with Celes and her friends once again, they travel around the world looking for the rest of their scattered comrades. |

Notes[]
Gameplay
- Setzer has a variation: Dashing Gambler Setzer.
Area Effect Mechanics
- The area effects granted by Setzer's cooldown skill Second Chance (FFVI) does not stack when a duplicate unit uses the same ability.
- Area effects do not stack. Using a skill with a similar effect or evoking an Esper with the appropriate unit will overwrite the previous area effect.
Trivia
- ERAUQS SI DLROW EHT is a tombstone puzzle solution in Darill's Tomb in which in the Western version uses. It means The world is square. backwards. The Japanese iteration for the puzzle's solution when read backwards means ともよ やすらかに ("Tomo yo, yasuraka ni.") ("Rest in peace, my friend.").
- This very phrase was later used in other Square Enix titles and many other games as a form of easter egg.
