Height: 5'8"
Weapon of Choice: Gunblade
Limit Break: Renzokuken

Orphan and once under the care of Matron. He, along with the rest of the orphans, do not remember that they are truly orphans until late in the game. He was once lost away from Ellone, whom he and the other orphan children called their sister. From this experience he has become cold and unfriendly, relying only on himself. In the game he slowly becomes more trusting, mostly because of his relationship with Rinoa. He was able to open up to her. Squall wields the Gunblade, a difficult weapon that takes years to master. Only he and Seifer use them at Balamb Garden.

Zell Dincht
Age: 17
Height: 5'5"
Weapon of Choice: Gloves
Limit Break: Duel

Zell is a loud-mouthed, energetic guy that joined Balamb Garden to become a SeeD just like his grandfather. Grandfather Dincht really isn't his actually grandfather because he was another orphan with Quistis and Squall. He has an obsession with hot dogs and just can't get enough of them.

Seifer Almasy
Age: 18
Height: 6'2"
Weapon of Choice: Gunblade
Limit Break: Fire Cross

Seifer appears snobby and stand-offish at Balamb Garden. He is really a romantic guy deep down, although you don't realize this until he reveals his "romantic" dream of being the "Scorceress' Knight." He was one of the orphans always getting into quarrels with Squall. This aspect was apparently engrained in both Seifer and Squall because they continued to be rivals in Balamb. Squall and Seifer are the only two who use Gunblades at Balamb. His two companions are Fujin and Raijin who are constantly supporting him in whatever ventures he chooses.

Edea Krammer

Little is known about Edea other than the fact that she is a sorceress who inherited her power at a young age. Galbadia claim that she will bring peace throughout the world but it soon becomes clear that she has less innocent intentions.

She made a promise with Squall that if ever they were lost and were looking for each other, they would travel to an area that is by Edea's house and meet each other.

Limit Break: Blue Magic

She later resigns to become a full-fledged SeeD. She is also one of the orphans that used to live with Matron.

Quistis is much respected in Balamb, and has somewhat of a cult following. The members are called "Trepies". She's a young genius, being only a year older than Squall yet being a SeeD instructor. She uses Blue Magic, which are skills that enemies use when you fight.

Irvine Kinneas
Age: 17
Height: 6'0"
Weapon of Choice: Shotgun
Limit Break: Shot

Irvine is a sharpshooter from Galbadia Garden that always gets by with the ladies, or at least tries. He is one of the orphans from Matron's orphanage and forms a romance with Selphie.

Laguna Loire
Age: 27
Height: 5'9"
Weapon of Choice: Machine Gun
Limit Break: Desperado

He was at first in love with Julia, a pianist, and gets a song written about him, "Eyes on Me". He has a deep-seeded love for Raine, a "bartender" in the town of Windhill. There he takes care of Ellone, a little girl he grows very attatched to. He, Kiros, and Ward are possessed from time to time by Squall and the gang. When Squall meets Laguna personally, Laguna is the president of Esthar, much to the amazement of just about everybody.

Cloud Strife

At age 21, Cloud Strife leads the life of a mercenary for hire. As an ex- member of Shinras elite squad known simply as SOLDIER, his fighting skills are in high demand. Cloud joins the rebel group AVALANCHE for their first strike against one of Shinras huge Mako reactors that surround the city of Midgar.

The story line of Final Fantasy VII revolves around cloud. In fact most of the time you are required to have him in your party as he plays a key role in most of the events. Cloud proves to be a valuable asset because his sword technique is nearly unmatched. His magic skills are solid but dont overload him with materia.

Tifa Lockheart

Tifa and Cloud were childhood friends, but parted ways when cloud left his hometown of Nibelheim to join Solder. When her parents died, Tifa also left Nibelheim and headed for Midgar. Soon after opening her bar, Tifas Seventh Heaven, she met Barret and joined his ragtag group of rebels known as Avalanche. Its her goal to make sure Cloud remains with Avalanche after his first mission with the team.

When fighting, Tifa lets her fists do the talking. Her attacks are generally weaker than the other characters. However early on in the game her chain limit break can be useful. Instead of selecting a single limit break, each limit break adds to the chain of seven devastating hits. If you score a yeah! on the twirling slots, she causes extra damage. If she stops a slot on miss she misses that part of the combo. Tifa should always be a frontline fighter but may have trouble contributing to some boss fights.

Red XIII

Although his fiery red fur may make him look like a wild animal, Red XIIIs intellect is well above that of most humans. Not much is known about Red XIIIs origin. Hes currently being held captive is Shinras HQ where hes forced to participate in their twisted experiments.

Red XIII is strong at both physical and magical combat. His sharp teeth and claws work well with his close range fighting style, however, this limits his combat options and forces him to take a spot on the front line. There is a long range weapon for Red XIII but it lacks materia slots and forces him to act as a fighter. Use his talent for magic but dont load him down with materia, try to find a balanced approach taking advantage of his physical and mental strength.

Yuffie Kisaragi

This 16-year-old ninja spent most of her time preying on helpless travelers until she met up with Clouds party (see finding Yuffie). Although she is reluctant to join Avalanche, her ulterior motives give her a reason to tag along, if only temporarily. Her clever wit and ninja skills coupled with her selfish ways will either make here a powerful ally or a pain in the neck.

Yuffie isnt one of the strongest team members, but her limit breaks are powerful. Her weapons enable her to attack from a distance without penalty. Keep her in the back rank and outfit her with plenty of materia.

Vincent Valentine

Talk about a dark presence, Vincent sends chills down the toughest persons spine. Although he may look evil at first, theres a good should trapped beneath his dark exterior. Vincents plight is yet another example of Shinras warped experiments. However theres more to his story than just bungled scientific research.

Vincent is a strong fighter also competent in the use of materia, which he makes good use of from the back row. His limit attacks are powerful but unpredictable. Once he transforms you will no longer have control over

Aeris Gainsborough

A beautiful 22-year-old, Aeris is a bright spot in the middle of a dark and dreary town. While selling flowers near Avalanches first target, Aeris life was forever altered after a chance meeting with Cloud. Because of her mysterious background, Shinra has pursued her for most of her life. Now she must fight against those who would enslave her and destroy what she holds dear.

Aeris is the closest thing Final Fantasy VII has to a dedicated magic user. Her physical attacks are fairly weak, but she possesses great skill with materia and its various forms. Due to this odd balance you should put her in your back line and load her down with materia. Let Aeris devote her energies to spell casting while her teammates concentrate on inflicting physical damage.

Barret Wallace

Barret is the 35-year-old leader of the rebel team known as AVALANCHE. He leads the team in the quest to stop Shinras Mako reactors and save the life of the planet. Although he is truly devoted to the team, Barret often regrets having to leave his young daughter, Marlene, alone or in the care of others. Barrets motives are unclear, but most believe that Shinra was somehow responsible for the death of his wife.

Although he may not look it, Barret is one of the most versatile characters in the game. Unlike most he has weapons for close and long range combat, which enables him to perform well on either rank. Youll want him on the back range most of the time so he will cause maximum damage will taking minimum in return. Avoid loading Barret down with materia as this will lower his HP and strength.

Cid Highwind

Cid is an expert pilot and mechanic who dreams of one day becoming the first man in space. His dream would have been fulfilled, but he aborted a launch in order to save the life of one of his crew. Now he spends his life trying to repair his inoperable rocket in the hopes that one day Shinra might reinstate its space program, giving him a second chance to fulfill his dream.

With his lance in hand, Cid is always prepared for battle. His fighting skills are top-notch and come in handy throughout the game. His limit breaks are very helpful when fighting the evil hordes. Youll notice that they all cause direct damage. Cids Statistics are pretty average all round, which can help or hinder his performance depending on how he is equipped.

Cait Sith

Although Cait Siths fortune telling ability may not impress you, his fighting skills are a sight to be witnessed. The party first bumps into this joker while wandering around the gold saucer. Cait Sith eagerly joins the group to see if his predictions come true.

Cait Sith isnt much of a fighter, but his mog relies on close-range attacks. Cait Sith tends to have a higher HP than other characters, which makes him good cannon fodder, and his limit breaks can be useful in the early stages of the game.
