General Character Information
--------------------------------------
Character Name:
Cid Highwind
Character Age:
32
Character Gender:
Male
Character Race:
Human
Character Position:
Good
Character Personality:
Foul mouthed and constantly scowling, Cid displays a tough exterior for all to see. But it can be said that this pilot's bark is worse than his bite. Cid on the other hand, claims that they're equally horrible. In other words, don't try to agitate the man. But to a few, if can be confirmed that that the blond can be caring and kind. Cid possessed a good heart, and no matter how vulgar he can be, the man knows the difference between right and wrong, and can be sensitive too... if he wants to.
Having a short fuse and a sharp tongue, Cid can be annoyed easily. He especially hates the term 'old man', which was quite often used on him. He was only 32 years old. Still young and supple. There is no reason to call him an old man. His language can burn ears off and cause sailors to tremble, but recently, the Pilot had tried to tone down on his brash words. Unless you seriously upset him. Then feel the wrath.
Possibly because of his maturity, or sometimes lack of it, Cid has a certain sense of duty to him. One can see that the man is a responsible person, often taking up the job of leader and making the smart decision for the group. He cherishes his friends, and is willing to give his life at the drop of a pin. They just don't know that, and he is glad about it.
A veteran in battles, Cid now prefers to stay away from brawls and fighting, using his homemade spear only on heartless. Occasionally though, if the event calls for it, Cid is willing to knock some sense into the moron that dares ignite him. Never a strategist, Cid utilizes the element of surprise by charging headlong into a battle. Stubborn and never hesitant, the man knows nothing of caution, using pure strength and fueled anger. Surprisingly, this method of fighting had gotten him this far, and with not even a scar to brag about.
Being the logical man that he was, Cid prefers science over magic. A genius with mechanics, he is the person to go to when assistance is needed for gummi ships or other machines. Cid is passionate about flying, and the only time he ever willingly show affection and sweet talk is when discussions turn to flying or gummi ships. He can be easily upset if he finds a gummi ship battered, rammed, and hopelessly beyond repair, especially if he was the one who built it. Usually, that person never see their gummi ship again, and is booted out Cid's door.

Battle Information
--------------------------------------
Weapon Name: N/A
Weapon Appearance: Cid wields a homemade spear, but does not pull it out often. He preferred to work behind the scene, helping through science or technology, but when pushed to the limit, he could be deadly with the spear.
Abilities:
Mechanic- Cid is a master with gummi ships, gummi blocks, etc. He also has skills with computers and various machineries.
Spear Wielding- Cid uses a long spear that is used for fighting heartlesses or in critical conditions.
Dragon Song-With a few personally-made modifications to his spear using his high-level engineering ability, Cid Highwind is capable of using this special attack. By spinning his spear in front of him at a rapid pace and creating a circular pattern in the air, the spear's modifications activate from the intake of air. The weapon shoots out a powerful and constant series of sounds in a whirlwind-like pattern from the spinning weapon, strong enough to create visible distortions in the air. The act of spinning the spear in order to produce this effect allows Cid to protect himself with a rotating shield as it is performed.
The enclosed whirlwind shape of the sound waves prevents nearby allies from being affected by this attack unless they accidentally wander within it's area of effect. Inside of the attack's influence there are numerous pitches that sound like terrible screeching noises. The screeching attacks a living thing's sense of hearing to cause large amounts of pain and discomfort, as well as a severe loss of concentration and equilibrium, literally throwing them into a violent wind tunnel of sound.
The modifications made to the spear he built from scratch include the ability to release these noises from a wide array of pitches. This allows the Dragon Song attack to be simultaneously effective against humans, dogs, and everything above and below. If you can hear, then chances are this ability will have power over you. Because of the vibrations caused by this whirlwind of sound, constant exposure to the attack over several turns becomes highly damaging to the body as well as to inanimate structures. This ability could be used from far-ranged as well as close-ranged. As long as the target could hear, it would affect them, but it is much more effective if Cid was close to the target.
Additional Abilities:
Scattering Bomb: Another ability born of Cid's technical expertise, the mechanic has invented a type of hand grenade to help him out if ever he was in a tight pinch and ganged up on by more Heartless than he could handle.
Taking on the appearance of a metallic, rectangular device rather than an ordinary grenade, the Scattering Bomb has two buttons on it's surface. After the red one is pressed the weapon's special effect is armed and it can be thrown at a target. Generally Cid doesn't press it until right as he's about to release it. This is because only a short moment of time after being armed the bomb seems to burst apart in mid-air into exactly fifteen pieces that scatter over the general area it was thrown at. Each piece, however, is it's own weapon that releases a small concussive explosion after a short amount of time. If something were to be caught between multiple blasts it would suffer additional damage from the opposing forces clashing together on it's form.
Alternatively, Cid can press the blue button to arm it normally and toss the bomb without it segmenting in the air. This feature is for times when more accuracy or a single more powerful concussive blast is necessary.
Cid carries these bombs on a belt hidden beneath his orange waist cover. He has enough room under there to carry six at a time without them standing out or weighing him down too much.
Special Abilities:
N/A
Items:
1 Revive

Character History
--------------------------------------
Cid was born and raised in the world of Radiant Garden, later known as Hollow Bastion. As a child, he found passion in machinery, and a newly discovered technology, the gummi ship. Cid spent his childhood learning about the fascinating vehicle and yearned to travel in the gummi ship, to be the first man out in space. As he grew older, he became a gummi ship mechanic, and worked towards building a gummi ship capable of traveling to other worlds.
Often times, Cid gets into arguments with his costumers, but it was during one of these arguments, Cid met Shera, a scientist for a large company. Now Cid has to share his love for both the gummi ship and Shera.
On the day the heartlesses attacked, Cid was working on a gummi ship. When he heard screams coming from outside his shop, he went outside to see what was wrong. He was greeted with the scene of thousands of heartlesses crawling out of the ground and attacking people. He grabbed his spear and tried the best to exterminate the heartlesses. He found that it was useless, and ran back to his shop. Remembering that Shera was still out there in the mess and helpless, he started panicking.
There was no way to get out of the shop since it was surrounded by a swarming mass of heartless, blocking his escape.
He realized that he could escape with one of the gummi ships he had in his shop, and though it pained him to leave Shera behind he got ready to leave. He returned to his shop to grab some supplies and found three kids hiding in the shop: Leon, Yuffie, and Aerith. He took the kids with him and they escaped, watching their world crumble behind them.
Cid landed in Traverse Town, a place for those who had lost their home to the darkness. There, Cid started a shop, selling supplies to the refugees, and helping people settle in. Along with Leon, Yuffie, and Aerith, he helped Sora with the heartlesses, finally accepting the fact that Shera was gone.
Cid later gave up his job in the store, and went back to following his dreams and selling gummi parts again. After Sora locked up the worlds, Cid moved back to Hollow Bastion with Leon, and the others. There they started up the Hollow Bastion Restoration Committee, where Cid worked as the man behind the scene, working the machinery. He operates a giant computer from Merlin’s house, and often squabbles with the magician, seeing that he preferred science over magic.
