| Cloud | An ex-SOLDIER: first class, Cloud came to Midgar to start a new chapter of his life as a mercenary. At the invitation of his childhood friend, Tifa, he accepted a job with Avalanche. He may bring his buster sword to bear against Shinra troopers, but he does not care for plight of the planet. For him, this is a job and nothing more. Source: FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE |
|---|
| Aerith | Aerith is a flower seller who lives in the Sector 5 slums, who first meets Cloud on the streets of Midgar after the bombing of Mako Reactor 1. Shinra has kept a close eye on her ever since she was a child, as she has the ability to hear the voice of the planet. She is often found tending a modest bed of flowers at an old church in Sector 5. Source: FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE |
|---|
| Barret | The leader of an independent Avalanche cell in Midgar, Barret was disavowed by the old guard for his extreme methods that attracted too much attention. He subsequently came to Midgar, where he resolved to continue to pursue his vendetta against Shinra with a small but trusted group of followers. When not fighting against the corporation, he and his comrades serve in the neighborhood watch and keep the people safe─including his daughter Marlene, who he dotes on as a loving father. Source: FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE |
|---|
| Tifa | A loyal member of Avalanche─an underground organization opposed to Shinra─Tifa also runs Seventh Heaven, a popular bar in the Sector 7 slums.

As she struggled to reconcile her cause with her conscience, Tifa was reunited with her childhood friend, Cloud, for the first time in years... Source: FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE |
|---|
| Jessie | A member of the anti-Shinra resistance group Avalanche. In charge of procurement, Jesse obtains all the material needed for the group’s operations, from explosives to fake IDs.

Source: FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE |
|---|
| Wedge | A member of the anti-Shinra resistance group Avalanche. Wedge is tasked with gathering information and placating rival groups using his impressive list of contacts and personal charm. He also plays the vital role of testing new menu items at Seventh Heaven. The mood maker who eases tensions between the other members, he is a vital part of the team. Source: FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE |
|---|
| Biggs | A member of the anti-Shinra resistance group Avalanche. With Barret being prone to volatility, Biggs always follows through calmly. Neat and tidy by nature, his favourite things are cleaning and showers. Source: FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE |
|---|

|---|
| Reno | A member of the Turks―a special task force within Shinra's General Affairs Division. Reno stands out due to his fiery-red hair, sardonic grin, and cavalier attitude. Using lightning-quick movements and a specially outfitted truncheon, he toys with his opponents as he unleashes a myriad of attacks. Source: FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE |
|---|
| President Shinra | Current president of the Shinra Electric Power Company, he single-handedly raised the company up from a small arms manufacturer to the massive conglomerate it is today. He employs cutthroat business tactics to secure profits, going so far as to eliminate any who oppose him. However, he's openhanded to those lucky enough to be in his good graces. Source: FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE |
|---|
| Rude | A member of the Turks―a special task force within Shinra's General Affairs Division. Rude is an intimidating presence with his shaved head, sunglasses, and massive frame.

|---|
| Heidegger | The director of Public Security, this former commanding officer has been President Shinra's right-hand man since the early days of the company.

Like the president, Heidegger is ruthless, and will not hesitate to sacrifice others to get what he wants. Source: FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE |
|---|
| Roche | A 3-C SOLDIER operator who loves bikes, speed, and anyone capable of going toe-to-toe with him. A demon on wheels, he is ostracized by many in the organization due to his antics and general disregard for anyone's safety. Source: FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE |

She is highly capable, as one would expect from someone placed in charge of Shinra’s weapons development. Source: FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE |
|---|
| Palmer | The Director of Shinra's Space and Aeronautics Division. Palmer is the eldest of the company’s executives but has no real power or influence - his division, originally founded with the latest technology at Shinra’s disposal, has all but folded since it failed to launch a rocket. Because division activities have been suspended indefinitely, Palmer finds himself with lots of time on his hands. He’s fond of butter in his tea and chortles in a distinctive manner.
