Cait Sith is a playable character in Final Fantasy VII. He is a Gambler with dice and slot reels Limit Breaks. Cait Sith uses a megaphone to call for his moogle robot to pummel at enemies for physical damage. He is better at using Magic than physical attacks due to his stats, his weapons having many Materia slots, and because his Limit Breaks are not based on his physical damage.
Cait Sith joins the party in the Gold Saucer in "Sanctuary of Amusement". On a technical level, Cait Sith occupies the same party slot as young Cloud does for the flashback. The game only properly updates the slot during the character naming screen, so he will not function correctly if this is bypassed when adding him to the party by non-standard means.
Battle[]
Cait Sith joins the party with the Manipulate Materia. He is not as strong as other party members, but his Limit Break is versatile, albeit random. His victory pose has his oversized moogle doll clap its arms above its head; Cait Sith hops back and forth between claps. His victory pose loops.
Stats[]
Cait Sith's stats are lower than those of most characters', although his high Magic and Spirit stats make him useful for a mage. When he first joins the party his attack stat is similar to most of the party members first acquired as a team mate. His starting level is the average party level.

Equipment[]
Cait Sith joins the party with Yellow M-phone, which has four Materia slots, two of which are linked. His weapon is a megaphone, which he uses to give orders to his moogle. Cait Sith's megaphones tend to have multiple Materia. One of his megaphones, the Silver M-phone, is found in Nibelheim, and is one of the only weapons with eight Materia slots that can be acquired in part 1.
His ultimate weapon, the HP Shout, functions like Cloud's Ultima Weapon, causing more damage the higher his HP is. The primary difference is that Cait Sith's Limits are not based around his physical damage, and Cait Sith is better built towards magic use.
Limit Breaks[]
Unlike most characters, Cait Sith only has two Limit Breaks: Dice and Slots. Both resemble moves used by Setzer in Final Fantasy VI. The damage Dice inflicts is random, but can be good, especially in challenge runs of the game, as it deals fixed damage. Slots has various effects and inflicting some of them is in the player's control, but the player can't always get all of the best combinations due to random chance. One of the Slots outcomes is even negative: Death Joker, which spells Game Over.
Materia[]
Cait Sith joins the party with the Manipulate Materia. His generally high Magic stat, coupled with many of his weapons providing many Materia slots, make him a good choice for equipping many Magic and Summon Materia. As Cait Sith serves a utility role, and is primarily used for his Limits, he can be given a variety of Materia to address the party's shortcomings or that provide party-wide benefits, such as Sense or Steal or Enemy Away or Chocobo Lure or Pre-Emptive. He may also be good user of the Enemy Skill Materia due to his high Magic.
Quests[]
