Tseng (ツォン, Tson) is the stern but polite and calm leader of the Turks in Final Fantasy VII and the series Compilation of Final Fantasy VII. He has long, black hair and what appears to be a tilak in the middle of his forehead. While he is young, he has been an active member of the Turks for more than 10 years,[1] under the wing of the previous Turk leader Verdot. One of Tseng's first missions as team leader was aiding Zack, whom he befriended during the Genesis incident. Tseng attempted to retrieve Zack and Cloud in a nonviolent matter, but the presence of Shinra soldiers did not allow it. Prior to his promotion to leader, Tseng also met Aerith — for whom he seems to have had romantic feelings since she was a child.[1]

Tseng is the only Turk not fought at any point during Final Fantasy VII. In the game, he is wounded by Sephiroth during an investigation of the Temple of the Ancients. It is assumed that he dies there (this is believed to be a translation error in the original game for North America), since Aerith starts crying and he is never heard from again.

Tseng reappears in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, wherein he and Elena retrieve Jenova's remains from the Northern Crater before being attacked and captured by Kadaj's gang. After enduring torture at the villains' hands, he and Elena are rescued by Vincent Valentine, and the two of them later show up in Edge to rescue Rufus. The only other time he appeared before that in Advent Children was on the picture of his I.D. Card, splattered with blood, which Kadaj dropped in front of Rufus and when he and the other Turks are witnessing the recovery of Rufus from Geostigma near the end of the movie. Tseng is voiced by Junichi Suwabe in the Japanese version of the film and Ryun Yu in the English version.
