Are you sure? Well, even if he doesn't then he should.. if would really suit him actually lol.

Granted, it's not the nicest thing to see. But smoking characters in Final Fantasy?... hmm... I can't see it really affecting the number of smokers out there. I mean, seeing Cid in FFVII didn't really make me think, "Hmm, you know what? I think I might start smoking myself." After all there are alot of famous people out there who smoke, or who have been seen to smoke, who probably have a much greater impact on children than a game character. J.R. Tolkien, Whoopi Goldberg, Nicole Kidman, Britney Spears, Russell Crowe... the list goes on.

Granted, it's not really the same thing... after all, maybe some kids wouldn't know these people are. In that case, look at anime. There are lots of smokers in there, such as Spike (cowboy bebop), Integra (Hellsing), Hatori (Fruits Basket), Yumi (Rurouni Kenshin), Kaji (Neon Genisis Evangelion) ect ect...

Smoking does convey a particular image about a character that can be hard to replicate by other means. So I say let characters smoke... but -only- if the creators think that it will actually be an improvement.
