Character's Appearance
Tifa is stunning really, combining the girl-next-door attitude with athletic capabilities and innocent beauty. She stands at 5' 4", is dark of hair and eye, and most people immediately notice her rather endowed chest. Usually she wears a cropped close-fitting white shirt and a black skirt with matching suspenders. Rarely is she ever without her fighting gloves.

History
While growing up in the small mountain town of Nibelheim, Tifa became best friends with the neighbor boy next door, Cloud Strife. She and Cloud both developed feelings for one another, but circumstances kept them from being close. When Cloud left Nibel to join SOLDIER at age fourteen, Tifa began to study martial arts with Master Zangan, who resided in her hometown. She always kept an eye out in the newspapers for any mention of a SOLDIER named Cloud.
When Tifa was 15, a pair of Shinra SOLDIERs known as Zack and Sephiroth and a pair MP's came to investigate the Mako Reactor in the mountains above Nibelheim. Tifa was selected to be their guide through the mountains and to the reactor. Their first trip into the mountains went off without a hitch, but the next day Tifa discovered her hometown burning and most of the townspeople dead.
Her Master told her of Sephiroth's treachery, and that her father had followed the white haired man into the mountains. Tifa pursued Sephiroth, and outside the reactor held her father as he died. In a rage, and against her father's wishes, she entered the reactor to confront Sephiroth, who struck her, briefly knocking her unconscious. She woke to see Zack and Sephiroth fighting. Weak and unable to move, she watched as Zack was beaten back by Sephiroth, and finally defeated.
Shortly thereafter, one of the MP's arrived and took up Zack's sword, running Sephiroth through. As Sephiroth fell into the lifestream below, the MP came rushing to her, revealing himself as Cloud. After a few quiet, affectionate words with him, she passed out, only to awaken days later in her Master's house, the surviving villagers attempting to rebuild their ruined town.
Master Zangan was unable to treat Tifa's severe injuries himself, so he took her to a doctor in Midgar, where he left her to recover. Recovery was slow, and by the time Tifa was released from the doctor's care, she had decided to stay in Midgar.
Tifa struck out on her own in Midgar's slums, looking for a way to bring down Shinra. She quickly befriended Barret, a large gruff man with an intense hatred for Shinra and a soft spot for his adopted daughter Marlene. He introduced her to the beginnings of what would become the anti-Shinra group AVALANCHE, and helped her to open a little bar in the 7th sector called Seventh Heaven, which would also serve as AVALANCHE's headquarters. Tifa went to sleep one night, exhausted from a fight with a red-headed Turk whose name she didn't catch, and awoke on a purple velvet couch in the bowels of a large airship.
