Biography
When Tifa was in Nibelheim, a few years after her mother died, she became the student of a travelling fighter named Zangan at the age of thirteen. It was he who taught her the close combat skills she knew today. Not long afterwards, Sephiroth from Shinra arrived at Nibelheim and tragedy struck. Sephiroth burned down her hometown and killed everyone he saw, including Tifa's only parent, her father. Burning with hatred and anger, she went after Sephiroth but in the end, was heavily wounded. Ever since then, she held a grudge for Shinra.
With her hometown in ruins, Zangan took the heavily wounded Tifa to Midgar and left her with the doctors without waiting for her full recovery. Even though the time she had spent training with Zangan had been short, Tifa had mastered the basics and continued to hone her combat skills alone.
Before long, she found out about the anti-Shinra group Avalanche and with her grudge against Shinra, she decided to meet with the leader Barret to join them. While posing as the attractive hostess of her bar Seventh Heaven, she also took part in Avalanche's activities.
After the Meteor incident, Midgar was left in ruins and so was her bar. But with a little struggle, a new Seventh Heaven was opened in the new city of Edge. She now looks after Marlene as well as many orphaned children. |
