Japanese Voice: Hideo Ishikawa English Voice: David Boreanaz	"No one understands me... Sharpshooters are loners by nature... We hone our instincts, pour our whole being into a single bullet. The pressure of the moment... An instant of tension... That's what... I have to face alone... ...It's not easy. So like... Just do me a favor, and let me be! You get my drift?"

Personality

Irvine is a ladies' man, plain and simple and he uses his loner csharpshooters persona to try and impress woman. He is not shallow, inside him is actually a sensitive person with a sharp mind. During the course of the game, he focuses his charms on Selphie, but whether they actually get together isn't known, but it can be assumed. Irvine came from a Garden where they focused more on weapons and war technologies than on using Guardian Forces, so he hasn't much experience with them as the rest of the party. Therefore, he hasn't suffered the side-effect of memory-loss and he is the only one who easily remembers his time in Edea's Orphanage years back. He wears his auburn hair in a ponytail with a black cowboy hat over it. He has a Blue shirt, a khaki colored long jacket and brown chaps over black trousers. He joins the party near the end of Disc One, and is also the last permanent member to join. As Irvine is an expert gunman, he's known as the "Best Shooter in Garden".

History

Irvine is also an orphan of the Sorceress War and he lived in the seaside orphanage as a child. There more many other children, including Squall, Quistis, Zell, Seifer and Selphie, who were all under the care of Edea Kramer, or as they called her, Matron. The circumstances of his adoption are unknown, but eventually Irvine ends up studying in Galbadia Garden and graduates as a sharp shooter, being an expert on firearms. Squall and his team were hired as a SeeD to assassinate Sorceress Edea, who by then had become a Galbadian ambassador under President Vinzer Deling. Irvine was then assigned to the party as the group's sniper for the mission to assasinate Edea during a public celebration. As the group departs for Deling City, Irvine wasted no time on hittingon all three of the girls (Selphie, Rinoa and Quistis) on the team.

Fighting Style

As stated above, Irvine uses firearms in battle and became the "Best Shooter in Garden". He uses his Shotgun in battle and when using his Limit Break, he uses different kinds of bullets to do various damages.
