Happy birthday to Cloud Strife! August 11 marks the birth of the buster sword-wielding hero.

“There's no point in wasting our time worrying about fate if we can't change it.”

An ex-SOLDIER: first class, Cloud came to Midgar to start a new chapter of his life as a mercenary. At the invitation of his childhood friend, Tifa, he accepts a job with Avalanche. Together, they confront Shinra, ultimately leaving Midgar behind in pursuit of Sephiroth and the truth ─ a quest which will lead them to defy destiny itself.
