Setzer Gabbiani is eternally a gambler in heart and spirit, basing his entire life around making bets -- the higher the stakes the better! His current transportation is an airship purchased with money from his winnings.

He was first encountered when he kidnapped Celes Chere, thinking she was the opera star Maria with whom he was infatuated with. When he found out that she was not, he decided that he wanted Celes instead and put it on a coin toss. Winning the toss would mean he got her hand in marriage, while losing would mean lending his services -- and his airship -- in battle.
