Name: Tifa Lockhart
Age: 20
Origin:
Tifa is empathic, motherly, and reserved, both out of being observant and for being emotionally shy. Tifa identifies the feelings of others, offering sanctuary and protection for her teammates. While looking out for others, Tifa rarely discusses her own feelings: whenever she is asked, she will either express surprise, or quickly change the subject. Tifa prefers to consider all options and take in all information before acting, such as when she does not speak up about Cloud's confused past until she is certain of her own recollection of events. She also encourages others to practice restraint and think things through first. Tifa can and does fight to defend herself, often preferring to so as not to get others involved. While normally reserved, Tifa still shows aggression at times, particularly when interrogating Don Corneo and standing up to Scarlet. Tifa has low self-confidence and is self-critical of her faults, always pushing herself to do better.
Tifa is defined by her grief and loss throughout her life, manifesting in her conflicted nature, low self-esteem, and her reserved tendencies. As a child, she was more outgoing and extroverted, but the trauma of losing her mother at eight years old made her withdrawn at the time, and introverted later in life. As a teenager she lost her father and hometown in the Nibelheim incident, and as an adult experienced the fall of the Sector 7 plate. As a result, Tifa feels grief and anger towards both Shinra and Sephiroth, driving her desire for revenge. This, as well as her coping mechanism for pain being to withstand it rather than run from it, leads her to join Avalanche to get back at Shinra. While she acknowledges they have to be bold to make a change, she is ill at ease about the bombings and feels trapped, expressing guilt at many of their actions. Her conflicted nature allows her to resolve an argument between Cait Sith and Barret, able to understand both sides. Ultimately, when alone with Cloud to talk about her feelings of loss, she is overwhelmed and simply bursts into tears, showing her fragile emotional state which she tries to conceal.
As a supportive but troubled figure, Tifa shares mutual dependence with her friends. In her friendship with Barret, he depends on her as his moral compass, grounding him to do the right thing, whereas she depends on him to push her forward when she is indecisive. Tifa is protective of Aerith, while depending on her to remain optimistic and upbeat. The clearest example of her nature is with Cloud. Tifa depends on him as the only remnant of their hometown of Nibelheim following its destruction, and thus of her old identity. She is therefore protective of him, though this is mutual. Later, the two realize they were there for one another in times of need, but never knew it. Tifa's has implied romantic feelings for Cloud, growing jealous when seeing him grow close to Aerith, though her actions could also be interpreted as platonic. Aside from Cloud, Tifa shows little romantic interest in others, ignoring the advances of her three childhood friends, Johnny, Rude, and an Avalanche member who attempted to win her over with flowers.
Following the defeat of Sephiroth, Tifa attempts to put together a normal family, building a new bar and raising a family with Cloud, Barret, Marlene, and later Denzel. She tries to keep the family unit together when Cloud falls into depression, acting like a parental figure towards the children in her care, defending them in battle and supporting them emotionally. She appears hurt by Cloud's distantness, and in the Geostigma crisis, pushes him to take action and stop brooding over his past failures.
Powers/Abilities:
Tifa is a martial artist who was taught by Zangan, and in contrast with her reserved personality, is deceptively strong. Her fighting style involves primarily punches and kicks, and she uses knuckles and claws as her weapons. Her skills put her on par with the rest of the party — including Cloud, an enhanced supersoldier; and Barret, a battle-hardened leader wielding a cybernetic gun-arm — despite not having the same advantages. Her training with Zangan is also made apparent by her physique, others commenting on her "tight muscles".
Tifa's techniques are showcased in her limit breaks. Tifa also draws strength from her chi, as seen with her Unbridled Strength mechanic in Final Fantasy VII Remake, and can materialize her chi in the form of an orb that damages any foe in contact. Tifa also handles the finances for Barret's Avalanche cell and runs the Seventh Heaven bar; both her food and cocktails made the bar famous in the slums. When preparing cocktails, she performs tricks with the shaker, her showmanship used to garners higher tips from patrons
