Cissnei

Cissnei (pronounced shis-neh) was a member of the Turks who makes several appearances in both Before Crisis: Final Fantasy VII and Crisis Core''.

She is warm-hearted and has a mothering side which can border on bossy, which often manifests in how she looks after her colleagues. Originally living in an orphanage, she was chosen for the Turks after her latent potential was recognized, and as a member of the Turks, she has recieved a strict training and education since she was young. In the history of the Turks she is the youngest person to join, a record that currently remains unbroken. Cissnei uses a large crimson throwing star (similar to those used by Yuffie Kisaragi in Final Fantasy VII) called "Rekka" as her weapon of choice.

Before Crisis
Cissnei appeares by the name of Shuriken (Female). Like Katana (Male), she first appears in Episode 18, though at that time had been a Turk for several years.

Crisis Core
Still a member of the Turks, Cissnei continues to stay loyal to them. She has appeared in some of the trailers and has been seen in Midgar and Costa del Sol. In her profile video on the Official Crisis Core website, she soon finds Zack after he and Cloud escape Shin-Ra Mansion, and challenges Zack to a battle in order to prevent his leave. The outcome of this battle remains unknown.
