Cloud's Background
Personality:
Once upon a time Cloud was a very quiet young man who had a dream of becoming a SOLIDER. But then the fire nation attacked.
Not so much anymore.
There are definitely still the remnants of that young man inside of Cloud because it shows through here and there. He cares about those he's close to and even some that he's not really close to--especially children. He's got a much bigger heart than most might realize upon first meeting him and will go out of his way to keep others safe even if it means putting himself in danger. (Because, honestly Cloud has a pretty shitty sense of self preservation most of the time and tends to take leaps before he thinks.) He wants nothing more than to do right by others and by the planet itself but he's also very much a realist and does understand, now more than ever, that some things will always be the way they're going to be. That doesn't stop Cloud from doing the best he can to make the lives of people around him better, though.
It's very rare that Cloud will ever truly lose sight of the goals he's got in place for himself. Sure, sometimes they might be a bit obscured and he may end up taking the longest way around to complete them but they're always there nipping at the back of his mind. He's far too stubborn not to see things through until the end and it'll eat away at him if he takes too long to do something. More often than not he'll run off on his own to just sort of clear things up in his head but once he comes back, whatever it is that he was attempting to do will get accomplished. Cloud is also very stubborn, something else that has been apart of him since he was much younger. He doesn't take well to being told he can't do something and will work his ass off to prove that yes, he can do that. His past history of constantly getting overlooked and forgotten about still haunts him, in a way, so he tends to do things loud and flashy if he's really agitated about a certain situation. Most of the time he just aims to get things done so he can prove others wrong. This also applies to helping over people accomplish things. He's not going to go about helping everyone with everything but if there's a task that he can assist them with, he'll happily lend them aid.
While he may not seem the type at first, Cloud is definitely a bit of a shit when he wants to be. There's a dry sense of humor hidden underneath his seemingly chill demeanor and a quicker wit than even he gives himself credit for. (Cloud doesn't give himself enough credit for anything he does, let's be real.) He also doesn't have the time to put up with anyone's bullshit and is very quick to tell them to get to the point or shut up entirely. (Kiss kiss, Rufus.) He's also kind of a huge dork, as cool and collected as he may seem because he wears leather and rides a motorcycle. He's the type of person that will say "Let's mosey" and mean it or something equally as 90s ridiculous as that. (Crispy critters? Really Cloud?) This more easy going and relaxed side of Cloud doesn't come out easily but once he gets comfortable around people his sense of humor comes out and his youthfulness does show through.
Despite these lingering bits of the hopeful dreamer he use to be, Cloud has been put through the ringer and it's definitely altered a lot of who he was. (Altered parts of him that never got to develop naturally.) He's very quick to put the blame on himself for things that happen and tends to carry the weight of the world on his shoulders, refusing to allow anyone to help him bear it. His concern for others turns into him forgetting to look after himself as well and he'll work himself to death if given the chance. Once you snap him out of that state of mind he's good for awhile...it's just a matter of getting him to that point. Working keeps him from dwelling too long on things, keeps memories from haunting him when he doesn't want them to, so he'll just throw himself into projects and pretend that everything's okay. Call it a coping mechanism of sorts.
At his core, Cloud is also a very lost individual. He's still finding himself and putting together all the pieces that were shattered during his time as Hojo's captive, attempting to shape himself into his own person rather than pretending to be someone's he's not. Even after two years he's still working hard to figure out just who Cloud Strife is. (Though thanks to Tifa, Marlene and Vincent, especially, he's started to really embrace his own personal strengths and has started to really follow his own heart.) He's got a long way to go before he'll really be a 'whole' person again, which is why personal connections are ultimately so important to him, but he's found himself a good path now and wants to do right by his family.
