BASICS-
Full Name:Aerith Gainsborough
Nickname(s): Aeris
Age: 22
Age Appearance: 19
Gender: Female
Canon or Original: Canon
World Of Origin: Gaia
History: Aeris Gainsborough is introduced as a flower girl, when she briefly converses with Cloud Strife, a mercenary who is fleeing from the bombing of a Mako reactor by himself and AVALANCHE. The two later meet in Aeris' church in the Sector 5 slums, where she is faced with the possibility of being captured by the Turks. Aeris asks Cloud to be her bodyguard for the cost of one date. She is eventually apprehended, but once again rescued by Cloud and company. Aeris then joins them in the pursuit of Sephiroth, while embarking on a journey of self-discovery as well.
After a failed attempt to foil Sephiroth's theft of the Black Materia, Aeris ventures alone into the Forgotten City for an unknown purpose. Cloud and his companions give chase, eventually finding her praying at an altar. As Aeris looks up to smile at Cloud, Sephiroth appears and kills her by impaling her through the torso. The materia given to her by her mother, which she wore in her hair, falls from the altar into the water. After fighting an incarnation of Jenova, Cloud carries Aeris' body out into a lake in the Forgotten City, and releases her back to the Planet.
The party later learns the reason for Aeris being in the Forgotten City; through her White Materia, Aeris was able to summon Holy, the only force capable of repelling the ultimate destructive magic, Meteor. Though Aeris successfully casts Holy before her death, it is held back by the power of Sephiroth's will. When Sephiroth was finally defeated and Holy was released, it appears that it was too late to function as effectively as it should, for Meteor - already summoned by Sephiroth and set on a collision course with the Planet - has come too near the Planet's surface. While Holy clashes with Meteor, attempting to prevent its impact, the gravity of both Meteor and the Planet pulling on the spell in opposite directions weakens it, leaving it with too little room to take effect. The Planet's Lifestream then flows forth from within the planet, intervening with Holy and Meteor, and acting as a battering ram while aiding in the destruction of Meteor. This scene is followed by a vision of Aeris within the Lifestream's energy.
In Before Crisis: Final Fantasy VII, several years before the main events of Final Fantasy VII, Aerith becomes the target of AVALANCHE, who seek to prevent the Shinra Corporation from being able to make use of the last Cetra. They intend to learn the whereabouts of the Promised Land from her for their own purposes, and a member of the Turks tries to protect her.
Aerith in the credits of Advent Children.Aerith makes several appearances in the CGI film, Final Fantasy VII Advent Children, as Cloud's spiritual guide, urging him to move on in life, to forgive himself for the tragedies that were beyond his control and that she never blamed him for her death. During their spiritual reunion, Aerith speaks to Cloud in an open meadow laden with flowers, cheerfully and kindheartedly poking fun at how he needlessly burdens himself with the past, but acknowledges his suffering and offers kind words of support. One of Aerith's interactions with Cloud comes when each member of the original game's party helps in Cloud's final attack against Bahamut SIN; she appears as the last party member to assist Cloud. She also appears in the final scene of the movie, along with Zack, where she gives Cloud more words of encouragement before she and Zack walk into the light. Near the end of the film, it is discovered that water mixed with the Lifestream flows beneath the flowerbed in Aerith's church, which manifested as a cure for the Geostigma disease.
Hoshi o Meguru Otome (Maiden who Travels the Planet), a novelization written by Benny Matsuyama and appearing in the Final Fantasy VII Ultimania Ù guide, follows Aerith immediately after her death in Final Fantasy VII. The story reveals that a Cetra's strength of will and understanding of the planet allow their consciousness to exist within the Lifestream. Aerith journeys through the Lifestream, encountering characters that died in Final Fantasy VII. The story confirms that in Final Fantasy VII she used the Lifestream to aid Holy in defeating Meteor, also revealing that the deceased Dyne, Zack and members of AVALANCHE assisted her as well.
Aerith also appears in Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII. At the age of 15, Aerith met Zack, for whom she developed feelings during his stay in Midgar. Aerith and Zack developed a romantic relationship, but Zack was killed at the end of Crisis Core after being held in a Mako chamber for four years in the Shinra Mansion basement. During those years, Aerith helped her adopted mother earn a living by growing and selling flowers, a job that results in her meeting Cloud in the beginning of Final Fantasy VII.
Aerith's character has appeared in games outside of the Final Fantasy VII continuity. In Final Fantasy Tactics, Aeris appears as a flower girl. Later, a group of criminals harasses Aeris for the money she and her mother owe. After pleading for a postponement, Aeris is told to sell her body instead of flowers. Cloud appears and the player engages in battle with the group, letting her escape. She also appears in the PSP remake Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions, appearing as 'Flower Peddler', then as 'Aerith'. Itadaki Street Special features a playable version of Aerith, as well as other Final Fantasy VII characters Tifa Lockhart, Cloud Strife, and Sephiroth. She also appears Itadaki Street Portable with the same characters from Special, with the addition of Yuffie Kisaragi.
Due to the allowances provided by Kingdom Hearts being an alternate universe independent of the continuity of Final Fantasy and Disney, Aerith makes an appearance in the series. She is a member of a group dedicated to defeating the Heartless; the group also includes other Final Fantasy VII characters and Squall "Leon" Leonhart of Final Fantasy VIII. The design of Aerith's attire had minor changes from Final Fantasy VII. In the plot of Kingdom Hearts, Aerith suggests and helps with a method for defeating the Heartless to protagonists Donald Duck, Goofy and Sora. Throughout the game, she gives advice to the player. In the game's credits, she is shown at the library of Hollow Bastion as Cid brings Cloud back home, and walks over to greet him. She also appears in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories as a perceptive figment of Sora's memories. Aerith returns in Kingdom Hearts II, wearing a modified version of her dress in Before Crisis: Final Fantasy VII. Aerith, Leon, and Yuffie run a restoration committee for the town of Hollow Bastion. ~Wikipedia
Apperance: Aerith is a tall girl, but not too tall. She'd very feminine and has a slightly curvy body. Her hair is usually in a twisted pony tail with a big bow to hold it up. She has worn many outfits, but they all usually have a little bit of pink in them. The only exception is the one from Crisis Core. Her eyes are green and they always have a little bit of a sad look to them.
Personality: Aerith is a very caring young woman. She's always kind and usually only sees the good in people. No matter how bad the villian, she believes that there is always a way from them to change. Keeping her friends close, Aerith's compasion is far beyond that of the adverage girl. She rarely things about herself and always tries to put everyone else first. She has a huge amount of love in her heart. Her kindness is almost too much to believe.

RP Sample:
Taking her hood of her pink sweatshirt off to reveal her full head of pink hair streaked with black, Milly looked around the beautiful place that seemed to be Pearlstone High. Although she wasn’t too happy about her aunt sending her too a boarding school, could she have picked a better place? This school had almost everything, and the best part was that this could be a place that she might be able to meet new shape shifters. She’d never met one other then herself before, and her excited was rising. She looked forward to observing all the other powers the other teenagers would have. The littlest things amused her when it came to being a gifted.
Managing to find a cute little place with a waterfall, Milly sat on a bench near by. She never saw places like this where she came from. The way the water came dropped off like streaming crystals of blue seemed like something out of a dream to her. This was the sort of things she could stare at all day and never get board. She was going to be here for a while, and for once, she was glad.
The only thing that scared her was thinking about the other students. Milly was a shy girl, but she couldn’t help but dress bright and what she considered to be fabulous. She felt like she doomed herself every time she got up in the morning. She made it almost impossible for herself to blend in like she wanted too. She was way to ‘flashy’.
Hugging the stuffed panda bear Milly had chosen to bring on the walk with her, she let out a deep sigh. No one was going to like her. No one ever liked her. She was going to get made fun of the second someone saw her. Plus, her shape shifting powers were weak. Classes like gym always ended any hope she had for getting friends. Her low self esteem caused her to feel like the weakest link in everything she did.
When the girl approached her, Milly looked up from her pink converse. She practically jumped off the bench from being startled. It wasn’t often that people came up to her for any reason of there own free will. She wondered if there was a teacher near by that instructed her to come over here. That was the only reason she could think of. Or, this could be a trick. Maybe the girl came over here to mess with her. A lot of kids did that to her in the past so that wouldn’t be anything new. Still, she didn’t really want to loose the chance to talk to someone.
Milly hesitated for a moment, trying to find the courage to even say hello. Her shyness got the best of her too often. It was most likely the biggest reason that she had absolutely no friends. Now she probably looked stupid with the way she was just sitting here and starring. Saying something would probably be a really smart idea right about now.
“Hello…” Milly spoke in an awkward, but soft, voice.
Her words almost sounded forced. At this rate, the girl was going to leave at any second. Milly would’ve said more, except she still was trying to arm shield herself just in case this was a funny joke.
