Personality: Before falling into insanity, Sephiroth managed to maintain a distant and professional demeanor during his time at Shinra, he was known for hardly mingling with anybody besides his friends, and showing no difference to his fans. It is possible thtat he can act humane and caring in constrast to his reputation, but it doesn't always happen frequently. He is intelligent and respects those he deems worthy, and Sephiroth himself is also shown to be well-spoken and graceful, almost always giving off a sense of being calm, collected, and in control. ... and then he learnt of the experiments that lead up to his birth. Afterwards, Sephiroth fell into insanity, becoming a murderous, ruthless, and ever so vengeful person, and yet somehow retaining his calm and cold demeanor. He also developed a 'bit' of a messiah complex, proclaiming to be the 'chosen one' destined to lead the planet. He's rather sadistic and enjoys mentally torturing Cloud. Sephiroth is also evoted to Jenova and her cause, even though her body serves as little more than his avatar. He has become an agent carrying out Jenova's will.

Equipment: Sephiroth wields his Masamune, and is said to be the only person capable of (effectively) wielding it. 

Attributes: Sephiroth is the greatest SOLDIER 1st Class of all time, and he has the strength to back up this title. His greatest strength is his swordsmanship and inhuman physical prowess stemming from his success as a byproduct of the Jenova Project, as he is the only one capable of effectively wielding his Masamune, an ōdachi which he uses effortlessly with a single hand, while skillfully being able to shift from his left to right hand with no loss of efficiency. He can slash faster than the human eye can see and with enough force to cut through steel and concrete. He is also highly resilient, able to endure immense physical damage and still continue to fight. His physical strength was also such that he could rip bolted down metal structures via his own bare hands with minimal effort. Sephiroth can also empower the Masamune to cast powerful blades and energy waves and even release omnidirectional bursts by slamming the ground with his sword. Sephiroth is well-versed in using magic both with materia before his immersion in the lifestream, and after absorbing the knowledge of the Ancients to where he no longer needs materia to use magic. His signature spells being 'Heartless Angel' to summon angels to sap enemies of their strength, and Shadow Flare to create gravitational exploding orbs of darkness. He can manifest materia to fight alongside him, as well as create a magical protective barrier. After he gained the black materia, he could use the most devastating destructive magic of all: Meteor. In the Remake, Sephiroth summons a huge ball of fire resembling the Meteor even without the Black Materia, and can perform elemental infusion to access unique elemental spells and resist elemental magic, conjure a homing crest of dark energy that paralyzes any close opponent, perform what seems to be a dark-elemental slash, and create black force-fields that stun and damage his foes. His special attack is Supernova, which has been described as his Limit Break. His use of Supernova is powered by despair, and it can even affect multiple dimensions. Sephiroth even has the power to seal Holy, preventing it from launching and destroying his Meteor. Sephiroth cannot degrade, and also cannot be copied as his genome cannot be broken down. He can also manifest a single black wing in his right shoulder, also being able to use its feathers to attack his enemies. 

Even after Sephiroth's physical body is destroyed, his will persists. After overpowering Jenova's will, Sephiroth gained the ability to exert his influence through her cells, able to construct avatars in his likeness, as well as other eldritch entities, enabling him a physical presence in the world of the living and attaining a sort of immortality. He can remotely control Jenova cells inside living organisms, affect the thoughts and actions of those injected with her cells, and in severe cases can outright puppeteer their bodies. His ability to project his will through these avatars is limited but is compounded by the subject's willpower (or lack thereof), and intensifies over shorter distances, being strongest at the North Crater (the site of his physical body). Being immersed in the lifestream granted Sephiroth psychic powers, allowing him to read others' minds, making him rather skilled at emotional manipulation, preying on his opponents' dark emotions. He can communicate with others telepathically and project illusions. He can also telekinetically control objects and even people and manipulate matter in by breaking down debris and fusing it. He can summon the Masamune at will, teleport to cover the distance between him and his enemies swiftly, and even teleport others as well as pass-through solid matter. He can fly even without his wing. (He can also warp reality but, he has enough already man.) 

Biography: Sephiroth was born to Professor Hojo and Lucrecia Crescent approximately twenty-seven years before Final Fantasy VII, Hojo and Lucrecia were working as assistants to Professor Gast, Shinra Electric Power Company's top scientist, on the Jenova Project that studied the remains of an extra-terrestrial entity. Jenova was mistaken as one of the Cetra, an ancient people who had the power to "talk to the planet". Hojo injected cell samples from Jenova into the pregnant Lucrecia and her unborn baby. She carried Sephiroth to term, his fetal form merging with the Jenova cells as he developed. During her pregnancy, she would have frequent pains, fainting spells, and recurring nightmares of her son committing atrocities. After the baby was born, he was taken by Shinra scientists, and Lucrecia never had a chance to hold him.

Sephiroth never gained the ability to talk to the planet, as he is not a Cetra descendant. Shinra noticed his exceptional physical prowess and raised him to be a super-soldier. Sephiroth's success still advanced the Jenova Project, leading to the creation of SOLDIER. Shinra told him nothing of his true parentage, and he grew up believing his mother's name was "Jenova". Sephiroth felt different from other children but didn't know of the experiments that had created him. Sephiroth came to respect Professor Gast, deeming him a great scientist. He despised Professor Hojo, considering him a hack scientist compared to Gast and a "walking mess of complexes".

During the Wutai War Sephiroth was instrumental in ensuring Shinra's dominance. He rose to the rank of SOLDIER First Class and was admired and respected as a great war hero. Those in Shinra considered his strength unequaled even by other First Class SOLDIER members. Many young men, including Cloud Strife and Genesis Rhapsodos, idolized Sephiroth and sought to join SOLDIER to become heroes like him, making Sephiroth useful for Shinra as a propaganda tool. 

On September 22nd 002, At the mako reactor, Sephiroth made two disturbing discoveries: several pod-like chambers containing monstrous creatures who used to be human, mutated by exposure to mako and a section labeled "JENOVA" containing a feminine-looking creature. When Zack suggests a connection between SOLDIER and the creatures in the tanks, Sephiroth flies into a rage, horrified that he is "different", most likely because he was created similarly to the monsters in the pods. In Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII- Genesis plays a part in inciting Sephiroth's madness by revealing Sephiroth was born from the Jenova Project, its goal to produce the "perfect monster". Sephiroth rejects Genesis's request for Jenova cells from him. On October 1st Sephiroth destroys Nibelheim, setting the town on fire and killing many townspeople before returning to the reactor to claim Jenova's remains. He is pursued by Tifa's father, Tifa herself, Zack, and Cloud. Tifa, a girl living in the town who had been Sephiroth's group's guide up the mountain, takes up Sephiroth's Masamune from beside her father's corpse and attacks him, but he disarms her and cuts her down.

After having noted he is unable to defeat Cloud, Sephiroth fell into the lifestream, his willpower too great to allow himself to be consumed. Over the next several years, Sephiroth traveled the lifestream, the planet's life energy, and the afterlife for its spirits that contains the summation of the cognition its inhabitant have accumulated. Growing in power and knowledge, the fragments of his body congregate at the Northern Cave inside the North Crater, joining to recreate Sephiroth's physical form in a cocoon of mako. Sephiroth's new goal became to merge with the lifestream and seize control of it to become a god.

(Really there, is much more to mention.. A; This is long enough, and B; that's basically a good ending point.) 

Other: Sephiroth uses one whole bottle of two shampoo and conditioner every time he washes his hair. The hair products he uses as made and supplied by the Shinra Company. They are scented with thirteen different kinds of perfume, (like rose and vanilla.) And apparently the scent in the air changes daily after he tosses his hair.
