The characters listed on this page are the MAIN characters of the movie. Even though most of the Final Fantasy VII cast is in the movie, they don't really play any major role in the movie. Blood Type, birthdays, and age information was taken from FF7:AC Prologue book.
Cloud Strife
Age: 23
Birthdate: August 11th
Blood Type: AB
Cloud Strife, just like in Final Fantasy VII, is the main character of the film. The story basically revolves around Cloud's struggle to forgive himself for what happened to both Aeris and Zack in the past. As well as that, Cloud has the new disease that has been found on the planet ever since meteor was destroyed. This disease is known as Geostigma.
Before Cloud contracted the disease, he lived with Tifa, Marlene, and a young orphan child known as Denzel at the 7th Heaven. Cloud was in charge of a business, known as "Strife Delivery Service." The three of them lived together as a family for quite a while, but Cloud suddenly decided to leave and live at Aeris' church so that the others did not find out that he had Geostigma.
Tifa Lockhart
Age: 22
Birthdate: May 3rd
Blood Type: B
Tifa, like always, runs the bar known as the 7th Heaven. Also there, she allows orphan children without a home to stay there. There are two children in particular that she had a foundness of - Denzel, an orphaned boy, and of course Marlene, Barret's "Daughter." The two children, Cloud, and Tifa had lived like a family for quite awhile until Cloud mysteriously moved out. This had Tifa concerened with the Children wishing that Cloud would return back to the 7th Heaven where he belongs.
Tifa plays a supporting role in the movie. She worries a lot for Cloud and wants what is best for him - for him to forget the past and to focus on what he has in the present.
Marlene Wallace
Age: ?? (Around 8)
Birthdate: ???
Blood Type: ???
Marlene is Barret's "Daughter" that he cares for more than anything in the world. However, Barret is busy with his buisness endeavors so Tifa is taking care of her at the 7th Heaven. Tifa treats Marlene like she is her very own daughter.
Marlene cares a great deal for both Denzel and Cloud, and for her age, she is very mature. She supports Denzel, who has Geostigma, and is usually by his side helping him. She wonders greatly why Cloud had got up and left, and wishes for him to return home so they can be a family once again.
One of many children who were orphaned around the time meteor struck. Denzel is a strong-willed young boy who fights against the disease he has contracted, Geostigma. Denzel looks fondly towards Cloud and has a great respect for the man, looking up to him as a sort of father figure. When Cloud leaves, this bothers Denzel greatly and he can often be found calling out Cloud's name at random, for he misses him greatly and only wants him to return home to the 7th Heaven, much like Marlene does.
Kadaj
Age: ?? (Has the mentality of an 10 year old)
Birthdate: ???
Blood Type: ???
A mysterious young man who has recently appeared with his two brothers, Yazoo and Loz. Kadaj is very violent and wants nothing more than to get his "Mother," Jenova back from whoever has her. He often times looks for Cloud, who he refers to as "Big Brother."
There is only one thing Kadaj wants and that is for the Reunion to take place.
Yazoo and Loz
Age: ?? (Both have the mentality of an 20 year old)
Birthdate: ???
Blood Type: ???
Two mysterious young men who are Kadaj's "Brothers." They refer to Cloud as "Big Brother" and are looking for Jenova. They'll do just about anything in order to find the one they call "Mother." Both of them are excellent fighters and very violent.
Loz is sort of a crybaby, and Yazoo teases him about this. Yazoo is also the bit more mature and level-headed one of the group.
Reno and Rude
Age: ????
Birthdate: ???
Blood Type: ???
Two men who are both members of a group known as "The Turks" who directly serve the president of Shinra, Rufus Shinra. A couple of years ago they chased Cloud and his gang, but nowadays, they have nothing against the young man. Reno is first seen in the movie leading an investigation at the Northern Crater where Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz first appear. There Tseng and Elena are injured and Reno is found flying out.
These two Turks are probably best friends and are almost always seen together. Reno is a bit cocky and playful while Rude is a bit silent. Rude also has a great fondness for his sunglasses and carries spare pares in his suit pockets.
