| “ | Mother, let's take back the planet together. I... I had an epiphany. Let's go to the Promised Land. | „ |
| ~ Sephiroth to Jenova |
| “ | This was the work of the "kids," as you called them. Their movements were deliberate and precise, which tells me they've received military instruction. You mistakenly assumed the children and elderly were weaker than you simply because of their age. People make assumptions about me too, and I strive every day to prove them wrong. In the course of my training, I've learned that to be a good SOLDIER, you need to be strong in body, mind, and heart. A well-trained body, a sharp mind, and a hardened heart—one ruthless and unwavering and devoid of hesitation. A SOLDIER led by their emotions is second-rate—or rather, dated. They have no business being on the battlefield. Out here, the only way to survive is to kill them before they kill you...! | „ |
| ~ Sephiroth to Matt Winsord, Lucia Lin, and Glenn Lodbrok |
| “ | Overconfidence will destroy you... | „ |
| ~ Sephiroth |
| “ | Seven seconds till the end. Time enough for you, perhaps. But what will you do with it? Let's see. | „ |
| ~ Sephiroth to Cloud Strife |
| “ | They say she's a monster. That she can peer inside you—into the very depths of your soul. That she can become those you hate. Those you fear. Those you love. | „ |
| ~ Sephiroth |
Sephiroth is the main overarching antagonist of the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII. Once a legendary SOLDIER and unrivaled swordsman who served as the inspiration for countless SOLDIER candidates across the years, Sephiroth found out about the truth behind his unnatural birth and was driven insane. He grew to hate the planet and sought to destroy it, only to be opposed by Cloud Strife and his friends.

Sephiroth, having been raised inside of the Shinra Power Electric Company and trained his entire life, was viewed as unstoppable in combat even as a young boy. Thanks to his unrivalled levels of skill, he was instrumental in ending Shinra's war with Wutai, and was promptly hailed as a hero. Several young boys from around the world, including Cloud Strife, were inspired by Sephiroth as a result. During his glory days as a SOLDIER 1st Class, Sephiroth was best friends with Angeal Hewley and Genesis Rhapsodos, fellow SOLDIERs who constantly served as sparring partners for him. With Genesis and Angeal's departure from Shinra, however, Sephiroth was sent down a long spiral of figuring out his true identity. On a mission to Nibelheim alongside Zack Fair, Sephiroth discovered the ancient alien, JENOVA, who shared the same name as his mother. After countless days of obsessive research inside the Shinra Mansion, Sephiroth learned the truth; he was a lab experiment created by Shinra, using JENOVA's DNA. Because of this, Sephiroth viewed himself as a monster who was wronged by the planet, and fell into insanity. Growing enraged with the planet, Sephiroth murdered the people of Nibelheim and reunited with JENOVA. However, he was opposed by Zack and Cloud Strife, who managed to fatally wound Sephiroth and send him tumbling into the Lifestream. From then on, Sephiroth's anger grew to extreme levels, and he developed an obsessive hatred towards Cloud Strife. Having been partially diffused into the Lifestream, Sephiroth acted from a distance and would use the JENOVA DNA within Cloud to control him and do his bidding; eventually leading to Cloud delivering the Black Materia to him. Using the Black Materia, Sephiroth would call upon Meteor to destroy the planet. He was once again opposed by Cloud, however, and seemingly killed for good. Two years passed, and a horrible plague known as Geostigma infested the planet. This was the doing of Sephiroth and JENOVA, who still existed within the Lifestream as they could not be completely diffused into it. Sephiroth used his will to develop three remnants of himself, Kadaj, Loz, and Yazoo. These remnants scoured the planet for JENOVA's head, eventually finding it and bringing Sephiroth back to the living world. After a long and arduous final battle against Cloud, however, he was once again killed. With his final words, he claimed that he would never only be a memory. |

*Masamune: Sephiroth's primary weapon is an extremely large odachi-type blade, with a length of around seven feet long. Because of its length, Sephiroth is able to utilize this blade almost as more of a ranged weapon than a melee weapon. It's very durable, able to cut through metal with ease, though Sephiroth prefers to use it more for piercing foes. This blade has six whole Materia blades, and can be summoned by Sephiroth at will from the Negative Lifestream.
Masamune
*Summon: Small red orbs of crystalized Mako energy that can be used to call upon legendary, gargantuan beasts from the distant past, to fight alongside him. This includes giant flaming behemoths like Ifrit, to huge dragons like Bahamut.

Weaknesses: Sephiroth is extremely arrogant in his own abilities, to the point where he viewed Cloud overpowering him as impossible, which then led to his death. His hatred of Cloud has grown to obsessive levels, and can oftentimes impede on his own goals, as he will sometimes go out of his way to try and make Cloud suffer.
