"Edgar's twin brother, who traded the throne for his own freedom . . . "

Sabin is a real powerhouse character. His physical attacks are awesome. His magic power is somewhat weak, but if you're willing to spend a little time with Espers to boost it, then you can make him into a VERY good character. His Blitzes are awesome. After I learn Bum Rush, I have him in my party almost constantly just for that one attack. If you are looking for a strong physical characer, Sabin is a good choice. Also, he tends to have a high HP, which is useful.

Starting Equipment: Metal Knuckle, Leather Hat, Kung Fu Suit

Sabin's Blitzes

Sabin's Blitzes are performed by hitting a combination of buttons, which then unleashes a nasty attack on your enemies. He learns new Blitzes as he levels up (Bum Rush can be gained either in this way, or by learning it from Duncan in the World of Ruin.) I have included both the combinations for the Anthology and the original version. If they are the same, only one sequence is given.

The notations N, S, E, W, NE, NW, SE, SW indicate directions on the control pad. E.G., N is equivalent to pushing "Up" on the control pad. (Think of it like a compass.)
