Tifa Lockhart- Tifa once again runs a bar called &th Heaven in Edge. Though she hasn't fought in 2 years, she hasn't lost her toch.

Rufus Shinra- Rufus now resides in Healin and is always seen wearing a cape. This is because he to has Geostigma and wishes to hide it. As to why he is in a wheelchair is unknown. We plainly see he is able to walk. The eye patch to. He was able to see out of that eye. It possibly could have been a trick to fool Kadaj.

Kadaj- One of the 3 remnants of Sephiroth. Kadaj is very intelligent and is very skilled with swords. He is rather chidish when it comes to Jenova. Kadaj is the one with medium length hair.

Loz- One of the 3 remnants of Sephiroth. Loz is the immature and emotional one of the group. He apparently cries a lot. He is very skilled with hand-to-hand combat and uses a weapon that electrocutes. Loz is the one with short hair.

Reno- One of the Turks who now watch over Rufus. Reno is the fastest Turk and a very skilled helicopter pilot. He uses an EMR(electro magnetic rod) as a weapon. Reno is pretty laid back and unprofessional but is proud at what he does and is good at it.

Rude- One of the Turks who now watch over Rufus. Rude is the strongest of the Turks. His fighting resembles that of a boxer. Rue always wears sunglasses and apparantly keeps extra ones in his jacket for emergencies.

Minor Characters

Barret- Barret now looks for cleaner ways to produce energy with out harming the planet. That cleaner way is oil. His role is very small in Advent Children.

Cid- Cid made a new airship called the Shera. It is named after the woman he lived with in Final Fantasy VII. Though he's old, his skills haven't died down at all.

Yuffie- Yuffie's role was very small in Advent Children. She still loves materia.

Red XIII/Nanaki- Nanaki's role was also very short. He did a lot of fighting but had only one line.

Cait Sith- Cait Sith's role in Advent Children was very comical. He had an Irish accent and rode on top of Nanaki.

Vincent- Vincent had a good role in the film but not too large. Vincent saves Tseng and Elena and Cloud. He to carries scars of his past still but isn't doing anything to hel them.

Zack- Zack was only seen as a ghost and in flashbacks. The flashbacks of him show a little of the escape to Midgar.

Sephiroth- Sephiroth was only in the last part of the movie. He's just as sadistic and manical as ever.
