Aerith Gainsborough, alternately known with the first name Aeris, is a playable character in Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy VII Remake Aerith is the last of the Cetra, an ancient race with powerful magical abilities, and so the Shinra Electric Power Company hunts her throughout her life, seeking to exploit her powers. She meets Cloud Strife in Midgar, and the two become close, leading her to join his quest to fight Shinra and hunt down Sephiroth. Aerith is upbeat, carefree, and joyful, being flirtatious towards Cloud and also compassionate towards others. Aerith wields staves in battle, and is in the back row by default, as she primarily uses magic from equipped Materia in battle. Her Limit abilities are defensive, either providing restorative powers, healing other party members, or granting them positive status enhancements. __Appearance__ Aerith has long plaited light brown hair with a large pink ribbon; within the ribbon, she keeps the White Materia orb given to her by her mother. Segmented bangs frame Aerith's face, and she has emerald green eyes. As a young child, she wears a dark blue denim jumper dress with a light teal turtleneck, white socks, and brown shoes. Her ribbon is light teal. After her adoption, she wears a burnt orange loose collar shirt with a yellow collar, brown shorts, and a matching short boots. Her ribbon is yellow. __Personality__ Aerith is upbeat and joyful, and several times in Final Fantasy VII attempts to cheer up her fellow party members. Raised in the Midgar Slums, Aerith maintains that she can take care of herself and can fight off Shinra troops, as well as demonstrating more subtle forms of savvy. Aerith is flirtatious with Cloud and possesses a carefree and naive nature, expressing a desire to fly on an airship when the party sails out of Junon. When Aerith has made up her mind about something, she will not listen to anyone who tells her otherwise. She intuitively understands others and can lift her companion's spirits despite occasionally appearing insensitive to their point of view, such as when Barret is troubled while at the Gold Saucer. Aerith and Tifa often spend time together when the party splits up and are good friends, though both also appear slightly jealous of the other's closeness to Cloud. As a child, Aerith was reluctant to accept her Cetra heritage, and in Final Fantasy VII, she admits to Cloud she considers herself lonely, as she is the only remaining Cetra. She exhibits personality quirks at times, such as being afraid of the sky in Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-, claiming she can "hear the wind calling her" in Before Crisis -Final Fantasy VII-, and talking to her flowers in Final Fantasy VII Remake. Her Cetra heritage may influence these traits, allowing her to communicate with the planet. Aerith is forgiving, as seen with Cloud after the events at the Temple of the Ancients. She even shows compassion to people who might not deserve the gesture, like Tseng. Aerith is portrayed as an independent, outgoing, motherly, and kind young woman who is deeply in-tune with nature. Her extrovert personality is a contrast to Tifa's more withdrawn and guarded mindset. In Aerith's later portrayals in Before Crisis, Crisis Core and Kingdoms Hearts her outgoing, playful nature is not as apparent and instead shows a more prayerful and dreamy demeanor.
