An ex-SOLDIER whose true memories have been lost, Cloud joins the rebel group AVALANCHE's fight against the Shinra Company in an attempt to save the planet, and discover more about his own identity.
Description
Cloud is a recruitable character in Final Fantasy Record Keeper. He joins the party after clearing Mako Reactor No. 5 for the first time.
Cloud is also a character in the game's Record Dungeon content, serving as a guest party member whenever Tyro and his friends are teleported into Final Fantasy VII records.
Overview
Cloud possesses high HP and Attack growth, and fair Defense and Speed. His Resistance score is also slightly above average for a physical fighter. Cloud is initially proficient in Combat and Heavy-class abilities, but can unlock access to lower-tier Knight abilities and high-tier Spellblade abilities through the use of Record Spheres. Cloud has the potential to wield some of the most powerful attacks, whether single-target or multi-target.
Like other main protagonist characters, Cloud is frequently one the first to receive the game's newest Soul Break types. His Soul Breaks are often associated with wind and dark elements.
Should players obtain his Ultra Cross-slash Soul Break from the Record Lab exchange shop, Cloud can easily break the default damage cap on most enemies weak to wind and dark-elemental attacks. When paired with wind Chain Soul Breaks and the correct buffs, Cloud has the potential to unleash twenty individual attacks up to 20,000 damage when using his Sonic Braver Arcane Overstrike. Cloud is often an excellent choice to tackle the holy and earth-elemental oriented Magicite-content bosses.
Story
Volume 1
During the opening events of the Record Dungeon scenario, Tyro and Elarra are whisked away by the first corrupted painting to bombing mission of Mako Reactor 1. Due the painting manipulating history, Tyro and Elarra are made AVALANCHE recruits and fight alongside Cloud as soon as he gets off the train at the reactor's station. Teaming with Tyro and Barret, Cloud manages to take down Guard Scorpion guarding the reactor and successfully destroys the facility.
After the mission, Cloud and Tyro are ambush by Shinra forces, and are forced to engage in combat with them. Being surrounded by Shinra troops, Cloud, Tyro, and Elarra jump onto the coming train below and make their escape. However, Tyro and Elarra are ejected from the painting, leaving Cloud's fate unknown; however Tyro suspects Cloud successfully managed to escape unharmed like they did.
During the "Shadow of Suspicion" portion of Volume 1, Tyro and Elarra, now joined with Biggs and Wedge, are reunited with Cloud the moment they were separated after the events of the Mako Reactor 1 bombing. The next day, Cloud, Barret, Tifa, and Tyro's group travel to destroy Mako Reactor No. 5. Before they can successfully make an escape, the group encounters President Shinra, who sends the Air Buster to attack them. After defeating the Air Buster, Cloud and Tyro's party are thrown into the slums below by the machine's explosion.
After falling into Aerith's church in the slums, Cloud and Tyro's friends encounter Reno threatening to take the girl with him. Due to history being altered by the corrupted paintings, Reno battles Cloud and Tyro inside the church. Managing to defeat Reno, Cloud and Tyro's friends save Aerith and return her home.
At the request of Elmyra Gainsborough to keep Aerith out of further trouble, Cloud and Tyro's group leave Aerith's house in the middle of the night. However, they find Aerith waiting for them outside and demands to travel with them, Cloud and Tyro reluctantly agree to her request.
Learning that Tifa went to Don Corneo's manor in the Wall Market, Aerith and Tyro's friends aid Cloud in his mission to crossdress to sneak into the facility. Managing to collect all the necessary items, Cloud is somehow selected by Corneo as the winner. Cloud reveals that it was all a ruse, and threatens to attack him with his sword. However, Corneo manages to open his trap door, throwing both Cloud and Tyro's friends into the sewers below, and are attacked by Corneo's pet, Aps.
After defeating Aps, the group arrives in Sector 7, finding Barret fighting against Shinra's troops. Cloud and Tyro friends gather at the top of the Plate Support and join forces in an attempt to stop Reno from dropping the Sector 7 plate. However despite their attempts, Reno manages to escape and Tseng reveals that he has kidnapped Aerith. Realizing that there is no way to prevent the plate's collapse, Cloud and Tyro are carried away by Barret and Biggs to the slums below. With the group ejected from the VII records once again, Tyro and his friends wonder of Cloud's group's fate.
