Background and Status Overview
A member of the General Affair Division’s Audit Department, commonly known as the Turks which is part of Shinra’s Security Division. He was appointed deputy chief because of his competence, and is mainly responsible for taking command in the field. He is deeply trusted by the other members for his calm judgment and excellent insight, but no details of his past history, age, family structure, or other personal information are available.
He was once on a mission to secure an Ancient that had escaped from Shinra and found Aerith in the Sector 5 Slums. However, he did not forcibly obtain her, and he still continues to monitor her and persuade her to cooperate with Shinra.
Appearance and Internal Traits
A cool and intelligent young man. He always wears a black suit, the Turks’ uniform, with a bindi accessory on his forehead and his hair pulled back [in a ponytail]. He takes pride in his duties as a Turk and aspires to act professionally, however dirty the work may be, but he is sometimes troubled because of his loyal and earnest nature, as well as his strong sense of compassion as an individual. However, he rarely shows that to others.
Main Relationships
Although he comes into contact with various characters on his missions, his relationships are often casual. However, he gradually builds a relationship of trust with Zack. It should be noted that although he has known Aerith since she was a child, there are only a few scenes in this work that depict this.
