Background

Shelke Rui, also known as Shelke the Transparent of the Tsviets, is an antagonist turned protagonist of the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII, starring in Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII. Recognized for her strong mental potential, Shelke was kidnapped from a young age and taken into Shinra's top-secret organization, Deepground. There, she went through tortuous training to turn her into the robotic and obedient Shelke the Transparent.

For the ten years that Shelke had been kept in Deepground, she was physically altered to the point where she no longer aged, and couldn't survive even a day without a dosage of Mako. She was also implanted with the mind of professor Lucrecia Crescent, whose memories were constantly in contention with Shelke's own. Her sister, Shalua Rui, had been searching for her all this time, and it is in their reunion that Shelke begins to reclaim her former self.

Statistics

Tier: High 3-A

Name: Shelke Rui, Shelke the Transparent

Origin: Final Fantasy VII

Sex: Male

Age: 19 years old, physically 9 years old (The surgery preformed on her has prevented her from aging)

Classification: Tsviet, Deepground Soldier

Status: Alive

Alignment: Lawful Evil initially (Shelke was a dutiful soldier of Deepground who did exactly as asked of her, carrying out evil deeds without any second thought. Her main goal was to serve Weiss, who tasked her with retreiving the Protomateria from Vincent through any means necessary. She has no problem with killing and will even turn her blade against her own kin, Shalua. Shelke is prone to a change of heart, however, and thus it mainly appears as though she simply carries out evil deeds out of strict order and not any self-fulfillment), Chaotic Good post-Deepground Strikes Back (After witnessing Shalua sacrifice herself to save Shelke's life, she goes into a state of shock, and cannot comprehend why someone would lose their own life for the sake of another's. Following some wise words from Vincent, however, Shelke soon sees the value in her sister's sacrifice and allies with the WRO. This is solidified when her very own former comrades, the Tsviets, outright try to kill her and claim that she is not longer required for their evil goals. Fully aligned with the heroes, Shelke rediscovers her humanity. This newfound individuality developed some selfishness within her, too, as she refuses to allow for Shalua to pass into the Lifestream)

Dimensionality: 3-D

Attack Potency: Likely Multi Supercluster level (Can harm Vincent Valentine, who can fight off Kadaj, Loz, and Yazoo, who are stated to be just as strong as Sephiroth during the original game, as well as contending with Sephiroth himself; Sephiroth knew Super Nova at the time of their fight which has him create a dimension containing one galaxy with room for countless more)

Durability: Likely Athletic Human level (Her body is weak and cannot survive even a day without daily dosages of Mako, and it is implied that she could be harmed by a regular human), at least Multi Supercluster level with Shield Materia (Her Shield Materia can block attacks that would regularly harm her, and it is directly compared to the potency of Azul the Cerulean's barrier field, that can easily protect him from extremely powerful blasts by Vincent Valentine)

Striking Strength: Likely Multi Supercluster Class

Lifting Strength: Below Average Human (Her body is weak and is that of a child)

Travel Speed: Peak Human (Can dash around far faster than a human)

Combat Speed: At least FTL+

Reaction Speed: At least FTL+ ([Can attack and react faster than Vincent Valentine, who could keep up with and defeat Sephiroth; Sephiroth knew Super Nova at the time of their fight, meaning he could react to the comet of his Super Nova)

Stamina: Below Average (Shelke quickly grows fatigued and will pass out, [as her body cannot survive even a day without daily dosages of Mako)

Range: Standard Melee, Extended Melee with EM Sabers, Far Higher with Shield Materia

Intelligence: Genius (Shelke is highly intelligent, having been trained in computer and SND technology during her ten years at Deepground. She's capable of easily tracking targets and problem-solving in order to complete all her goals, as well as being able to physically maneuver around obstacles despite her body's crippling need for Mako energy. Due to Lucrecia Crescent's memory fragments existing within her own mind, she also has access to the professor's genius intellect in multiple fields of study)

Standard Equipment

• EM Sabers: A pair of two metallic rods that act as Shelke's main forms of weaponry, that are connected via a glowing orange string. These sabers can be ignited and glow with intense orange energy, allowing for her to shock her opponents with every strike. They are powerful laser blades, though any contact with water can put them out and leave them as simple metal batons.

• 

  EM Sabers

• Shield Materia: A small orb of condensed Mako energy, which has a peculiar orange coloration not seen in any other Materia. With this Materia, Shelke can create a barrier around herself that protects her from all forms of harm, to the extent that she compares its protective power to the potency of Azul's field barrier. Having this activated can also protect her from the power of darkness, as seen when she was absorbed by Nero the Sable.

• 

  Shield Materia
