Bright and optimistic, Tifa always cheers up the others when
they're down. But don't let her looks fool you, she can decimate

Just as his name implies, he is an animal with
fire-red fur. But under his fierce exterior is an
intellegence surpassing that of any human's.
His sharp claws and fangs make him good at
close-range fighting, but other than that, not
much is known about him. It's not even certain
that "RED XIII" is his real name. A real enigma.

Cid is atough-talking, warm-hearted old pilot who hasn't

he throws himself into any attack regerdless of the danger.

Even amogst the elite troops of SOLDIER, Sepheroth is known

BIRTHPLACE: Wutai
BLOOD TYPE: A

Character Description
Although you'd never know it by looking at her, Yuffie comes
from a long line of Ninja. She forced herself into the group just
to get a 'certain something'. She's sneaky, arrogant and "way"
selfish. But with her super shuriken and her special skills, there
isn't anyone else you'd rather have on your side in a fight.

Cait Sith

AGE: unknown
WEAPON: Megaphone
HEIGHT: 3' 2"

Character Description
Cait Sith rides around on the back of a huge stuffed
Mog he magically brought to life. Megaphone in hand,
he's always shouting orders and creating dopey attacks.
When his slot machine attack works, the enemy lines
look like an overturned toy box. His hobby is fortune-
telling, but like his personality, it's pretty unreliable.

Vincent Valentine
JOB: Unemployed
AGE: 27
WEAPON: Gun
HEIGHT: 6'
BIRTHDATE: October 13
BIRTHPLACE: unknown
BLOOD TYPE: A

Character Description
A mystical man, stern and upright while at the same

Others. He may seem frail at first glance, but hidden
inside his body lurks some fearsome power.

Good use of the colour coding.

Red XIII's real name is Nanaki.
Everything youd want to know about the charecters there, well done.

I found Yuffie to be quite useful later in the game. "gauntlet" is an overlooked Limit Break.

i think that vinncent and yuffie should have played a bigger role in the game, having them as non essential charachters in the game made it seem as though they were a bit of a minority as a player, yet without them i dont think i would have completed the game the first time round.
