Where it came from
Zidane Tribal, the protagonist of Final Fantasy IX, appears here as a Tantalus Thief in the Square Enix trading card game series. This card commemorates his role as a charismatic yet guarded member of a troupe of traveling thieves, capturing his signature agility and dual-dagger fighting style which defined his visual identity throughout the PlayStation era title released at the turn of the millennium.
The card’s illustration leans into the whimsical yet intricate art direction established by character designer Toshiyuki Itahana. By emphasizing Zidane's distinctive tail and nimble posture, the design aims to evoke the spirit of the game's lighter, theatrical tone while remaining faithful to the character's core aesthetic. It remains a staple for collectors of the Final Fantasy TCG, prized for representing one of the franchise's most beloved lead characters.
