Sephiroth Age: Unknown
Hometown: Unknown (Probably Nibelheim???)
Weapon: Masamune

Sephiroth: Bio
A former member of SOLDIER, infused with Mako and possessing the fighting skills of a raging demon, Sephiroth is the main villain of Final Fantasy VII. He used to be the greatest member of SOLDIER, due to his finely honed sword skills and unmatched strength and power. As a boy, Cloud idolized him, and is the very reason for Cloud joining Shinra Inc. During a mission in the reactor at Nibelheim, he witnesses members of SOLDIER transformed into hideous monsters, encased in incubators. Thinking of himself as being one of those, he was enraged, not knowing the truth. He researches about his past, and finds out about Jenova, the "Crisis from the Sky", and makes her his mother-figure. He then goes back to the reactor, being the twisted self that he is at present, blames Cloud for his "traitorous" ancestors, burns down Nibelheim, slays Tifa's father, and proceeds to free his "mother" Jenova. He is then stopped by an enraged Cloud, who then succeeds in apparently killing him and throwing him into a Mako pit. Records have marked him as "Dead" since then. But now, strange occurences are happening, with the reappearance of Jenova, and the appearance of Sephiroth "clones". Sephiroth has awakened once again, and is off to pursue his unknown mission...He is a playable character during Cloud's flashback in Kalm. He cannot use any Limit Breaks, and he cannot be damaged. The computer controls him throughout the flashback. The only weapon he can equip is the Masamune (not Masamune Blade, as this is a replica).
Spoiler!!! Highlight the text below if you want to read it anyway.
Hometown Note: I guess it was Nibelheim, since in one of the cut-scenes in the game (involving Vincent/Lucrecia), Hojo and Lucrecia (Sephiroth's actual biological mother) were seen in Nibelheim, and the pregnant Lucrecia was seen in the second floor of the Inn. So, one may assume that Nibelheim was actually Sephiroth's birthplace.
