Lazard Deusericus

Lazard is a SOLDIER union executive, and makes appearances throughout Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-.

He sends Zack Fair on missions throughout the game. At this time, the SOLDIER department is independent, and the union executive oversees SOLDIER's management and draws up rough strategy guidelines. This person does not have the combat abilities of a SOLDIER and thus does not operate directly in the field. Within the company organization, he has received promotions at an exceptional speed to attain his present status.

Crisis Core
Lazard sends Zack Fair and Angeal Hewley on many missions throughout Crisis Core, mainly associated with the rogue SOLDIER, Genesis. At one point, Lazard sends Zack on a mission to go to the hometown of Genesis.
