Dion Lesage

Dion Lesage (ディオン・ルサージュ, Dion Rusāju) is a character in the 2023 video game Final Fantasy XVI. He is one of the main characters, the Dominant of Bahamut, the son of the Emperor Sylvestre Lesage and lover of Sir Terence. He was designed as reflection of the game's protagonist, Clive Rosfield, who was described as a darker character compared to Dion being an "all-around Superman." He received praise from both critics and fans for his sexuality, particularly his romance with Terence. That he was the first main character to be openly gay was positively received. The depiction was mostly positively received for its subtlety, though the lack of emphasis on this romance was met with disappointment.
