Character History
--------------------------------------
In Kingdom Hearts, Cloud appears in the Olympus Coliseum world. He wears a claw and a crimson cape which Tetsuya Nomura stated are not Vincent Valentine's, but rather that the KH version of Cloud was designed in a similar "dark" style as Nomura put it, thus they will have similarities as a result. This is noted by Nomura in the Kingdom Hearts Ultimania. He also bears a black demon wing on his left shoulder (meant to offset the black/blue angel wing on Sephiroth's right shoulder). Cloud has been hired by Hades to kill Hercules, but fights Sora as a prerequisite. When he refuses to kill Sora during their battle, or when Sora defeated him depending on whether the player won or lost the battle, Hades sets Cerberus on Cloud and Sora, who are only saved by Hercules' timely intervention. Cloud meets with Sora afterwards and explains that he is searching for the light he lost[3], hence his willingness to work for Hades. Cloud appears later in the Coliseum's battle tournaments: in the Hercules Cup, on his own, and in the Hades Cup, where he teams up with Leon. During the credit roll at the end of the game, Cloud is shown reuniting with Aerith Gainsborough in the library at Hollow Bastion.


Leon and Cloud in the Hollow Bastion world of Kingdom Hearts II.In Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix it is revealed that he is also searching for Sephiroth, whom he can be seen battling. Cloud's appearance in Kingdom Hearts is merely a cameo, and there is no mention of significant details from Final Fantasy VII, such as Jenova or SOLDIER. This is due to the fact that the Final Fantasy characters in Kingdom Hearts are versions from an alternate reality and not the same characters that appear in their respective games.

Cloud continued his role in the series in the GBA sequel Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories as a boss and later, as a summon card for Sora. However, "Cloud" is only a figment of Sora's memory in this game. The story states that he sided with Hades to search for his lost memories (instead of Sephiroth) but, in the end, Cloud ended up saying too much, prompting Hades to confess he lied to Cloud, as he wanted him to weaken Hercules in order to take him to the Underworld. After Sora foiled Hades's plan, Cloud chose to continue seeking his memories - this time, by himself.

Cloud's part continues in Kingdom Hearts II where he is in his Advent Children attire (and his wing is either missing or "hidden"), with more elaboration on his activities offered: to seek and overcome his darkness. He is searching for Sephiroth, and is himself being sought out by Kingdom Hearts's version of Tifa. Cloud fights along side Sora during the Heartless invasion of Hollow Bastion. Also, in Kingdom Hearts II, Jiminy's journal states that Cloud is a SOLDIER. Cloud's exploits in this game are a part of a small side story within the game about his inner conflict between darkness and light, in which he fights Sephiroth once more, with help from Tifa, Sora, Donald Duck and Goofy.

Through each game in the Kingdom Hearts series, Cloud is portrayed as being especially stoic and melancholic compared to his usual personality in Final Fantasy VII, although he exhibits similar behaviour in Advent Children.

In both Kingdom Hearts games, Cloud's sword is wrapped in cloth. In the first Kingdom Hearts, the blade is the Buster Sword, the same as the one he has in Final Fantasy VII, but in Kingdom Hearts II, the blade is similar to his Advent Children sword, The First Tsurugi, with a few minor differences.

After the player defeats Sephiroth (as an optional boss) in Kingdom Hearts II, Tifa gives Sora the Keyblade Fenrir, which has bandages identical to those wrapped around Cloud's Buster Sword/First Tsurugi (in the Kingdom Hearts games) and is thus loosely based on Cloud's swords in general.





Sample Post
____________________
Strife, Cloud. His wing was sproud and he soared of into the night sky. Thinking about how he thought he caused Aerith's death, he was seriously heartbroken. He felt angered, and did not know what to do. His sword was his only companion, he thought. So this is when he decided to go to Olympus Coliseum. Once he arrives there, Hades speaks to him.

Oh, won't you kill Hercules for me? [/b]
Cloud agrees. But after being there for awhile, it is to his avail his fights Sora as a prerequisite. He's happy about this, and will win at all costs. They both draw their weapon, and begin.

Cloud leaps into the air, and attemps to slash Sora four times, all in different locations. Sora blocks these attacks, which sucks for Cloud. Sora then goes for an attack to Clouds chest, Cloud blocks it and goes for a hit in Sora's legs, which succesfully knocked him down. Sora quickly used Curaga and regained his position. The fight dragged on for hours, hit after hit, slash after slash. Finally, they both decided to end this. Cloud casted a Blade Beam, and Sora casted a Fire spell multiple times. The end result was clear: It was a tie. But Cloud still had the advantage..

He went for an attack to Soras head, Sora blocked it. But Cloud would deffinatly not lose. He pushed down as hard as possible on Soras keyblade, and with great success, the Keyblade was flung out of Soras reach. Sora turned his back for five seconds; Which costed him his loss. Cloud hit Sora in the back, and Sora was knocked out. He had lost.


((this isn't supposed to be exactly like the encounter, so dont spaz!))

No.

I don't like the writing style for the Sample Post, especially since it is a fighting post, nor do I like the History since it feels very copied and pasted.

The entire history you used was plagiarized off Wikipedia.

That right there tells us you are not worthy of the character.

Well, they've denied it. Along with the thread maker deciding to screw it.
