Sorry I just thought that through my character some moral questioning could spring up about the war. I don't really want to scrap this character so proposition. I could play as an antagonist, I know it sounds hard but I've seen it done well before.
 I can edit backstory to make Cid a mercenary instead of a rebel, remove his some of his dislike for the government. I'd keep the part about the evacuation and say that the Sabre officials were impressed by dedicating himself for civilian lives.
All up to you boss.
