Cloud Strife ~ 💛🖤

Cloud Strife is a silent antihero marked by contradiction: strong on the outside, fragile on the inside.

He is reserved and distant: he maintains a cold facade to hide deep insecurities. Identity in conflict, lives with fragmented memories; doubts who he is and what is real in his past. His pride wounded, he longs to be recognized as a hero, though he fears he will not measure up. Unwavering loyalty: when he decides to trust, he protects his own without hesitation. Emotional maturity: evolves from apathetic mercenary to empathetic and conscious leader. Appearance: spiky blond hair, blue-green eyes (sign of mako exposure) and his SOLDIER uniform Attitude: short sentences, firm gaze; conveys self-control even when he is broken inside.

Weapon: The gigantic Buster Sword symbolizes his emotional burden as much as his power. Search for identity: wants to know who he was and who he chooses to be. Redemption: He desires to correct errors born of confusion and pride. Protection: fighting to prevent others from suffering what he suffered.

Physically strong, emotionally vulnerable. Safe on the outside, dubious on the inside. Hero to the world, wounded child within himself.
