Locke usually has a cunning smile and a gleam in his eye to offer the world and his friends around him, a true hero at heart who is fiercely protective of those he cares for.  From the moment he discovers Terra, he takes it upon himself to make sure she is never hurt again.  As if that is not responsibility enough, he makes the same silent oath to Celes.  He feels that he has so many mistakes to atone for...
