Character Description: Cid Highwind
The sailor-talking airship pilot captain is back, only he's now wearing a blue T-shirt with his jacket around his waist. But you can not forget one tiny little detail that is only stated when talking to one person in the "Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII" video game: Cid is now married to Shera, his assistant from back when ShinRa was going to blast a rocket into space. Unfortunately, Shera is affected by the stigma, stated so at the very end of Part II of Barret's story in "Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children -- The Novel.s"
Cid still has yet to kick the smoking habit, and he still has his trademark spear. He appears to help defeat Bahamut Sin, seeming to just show up out of nowhere to save Tifa and Denzel from the Shadow Crawlers with his spear. (NOTE THAT IN "Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Complete" HE DOES NOT SHOW UP TO SAVE THEM AS THE SCENE HAS BEEN CHANGED!!) That, and to fly his latest airship, SHERA, named after his wife. As you can see from one of the quotes, he seems to be a LITTLE sexist when he talks to Yuffie at one point.
As the official Square Enix FF7 website, http://na.square-enix.com/us/games/final-fantasy-vii, says, "The best pilot in the air or on the sea, Cid is a tough-talking, warm-hearted old man who hasn't forgotten his dreams, believing that someday he'll be the first man in space. With his handmade spear and knowledge of machinery, he throws himself into any attack regardless of the danger."
