Tifa Lockheart

Character Bio

BACKGROUND PERSONALITY: Tifa is a typically happy and quite independent person. Although she is well-off with the success of her bar in Midgar, she is a bit of a dreamer and secretly hopes that a "hero" will sweep her off her feet.

ORIGIN: Tifa grew up in the same town as Cloud where the two became long-time friends. (Tifa even harbors feelings towards Cloud but won't reveal them to him.) When she was 8 years old, she fell off of Mt. Nibel and slipped into a coma. Her parents blamed Cloud, but he was unaware that Tifa was there and couldn't do anything to save her. As Cloud grew more and more obsessed with SOLDIER and her parents still blamed him, he left to join Shinra's army. Tifa left as well, heading to Midgar to set up her own bar, Seventh Heaven. It was here that she met Barret and joined the AVALANCHE resistance movement. After meeting Cloud, she made it her duty to keep him in the group at any cost.

OCCUPATION: Bar hostess at Seventh Heaven and member of AVALANCHE

QUOTE: "Whenever I'm in trouble my hero will come and rescue me."
