Quistis is barely older than Squall, but is still an authority figure at Balamb Garden. Her fighting skills are excellent and Quistis is a reliable ally to have.
Quistis joined Balamb Garden when she was 15 and easily passed her SeeD exams. She then stayed to teach at Balamb Garden. She is a person who is interested in the way that the world works and why and is always willing to share her knowledge. With these qualities she is an excellent instructor. Quistis is a friendly person and always tries to keep calm over everything. Things such as stubborn trainees and the hassles of issuing orders seems to take a lot out of her but she always tries not to let it show.
Quistis though is still a young woman (the same age as Seifer) but few people view her as one due to her mature and sensible ways. Quistis, because she is an instructor must face her worries and problems alone as she cannot develop personal relations with the students even though she wants to. She especially likes Squall but is kept away because she is his instructor. Because of this she can became agitated and depressed.
Quistis considers Balamb Garden to be her home and she is very protective about it. Quistis has a hard time coming to terms with change, so how will she face this adventure?
