Player Turk (Before Crisis: Final Fantasy VII) Respect Thread

The Turks Alvis (Rod) and Emma (Gun)
The Turks Alvis (Rod) and Emma (Gun)

For the best quality, switch to blog format.

The Player Turk, while not confirmed to canonically be any specific Turk, is notably depicted in the Reunion Files as both Alvis (Rod) and Emma (Gun). From that, in addition to the clips used of Alvis in the Reminiscence of Final Fantasy VII Compilation, this thread makes the assumption the events of Before Crisis are largely attributed to either or sans Chapter 19 which was demonstrated to have been all Cissini per Crisis Core.

So, long story short, substitute out whatever gunfire animation we're stuck with for Alvis (Rod)'s melee attack animation we get to briefly see in the fight with Zirconiade for most of the presented strength feats.

Anyway?

I'm not pretending to make this for this website specifically, so standards of evidence may vary. I just happen to like the blog format here the best. As my intention is to be as complete as possible, regardless of your standards, I'm pretty sure you'll find something to use in here.

On what qualifies as a feat for the purposes of this collection? As video games seem to be one of those things that lack universal standards?

Things like HP, other stats, and status conditions are obviously gameplay and play no part in evaluation.

What's left of relevance then?

The animations and how they interact with the models are removed from the statistics used to determine game mechanics. In general, I prefer to take the animations and how they interact as being representative of their capabilities unless otherwise clarified to not be so by the developers. Repeated animations that couldn't feasibly be repeated aren't something to concern oneself with either. In consideration to disk space and internal storage/memory, its a bit ridiculous to ask for unique animations to the effect of preserving some arbitrary form of continuity when the animation just exists to represent what came to the development team's imagination.

Doesn't have to be your take, just happens to be mine and elsewhere.

Will/Mental/Spiritual Power Mechanics of FFVII

Here, here, here, and here, the Lifestream is the merged/convergent path of energy (Spirit Energy) of the consciousness/hearts/souls for all living things roaming the Planet. New life born with Spirit Energy and die to return it to the Planet (with some exceptions). Spirit Energy is what makes it possible for the planets to form in Final Fantasy VII. Without Spirit Energy, the planets cannot retain their shape and are destroyed. Shinra's use of Mako Energy will deplete the Lifestream over time and lead to the death of the Planet.

"It's full of the knowledge of the Ancients. No...not knowledge...consciousness...a living soul..."
"To an operative, nothing compares to the experience gained on the journey to SOLDIER 1st Class. Operatives tap into these past achievements to carry out feats otherwise inconceivable. In fact, without being able to recall such experiences, an operative would find himself unable to improve his skills."

The man could sense the Lifestream trying to erode his spirit– the memories of his former experiences, thoughts and emotions. If he allowed himself be taken into the current, the being he once was would soon disseminate and disappear amongst the spirit energy cycling around the planet.

Lifestream Black 1

Some of the people possessed wounds that even the materia Yuffie had couldn’t heal but, she was sure they would heal gradually if cared for well. The problem was Yuffie herself didn’t have the mental power. Materia was the crystallization of the Lifestream. To withdraw the power from the stabilized crystal, some form of shock is required and this is triggered by the mind waves of the user. As a result of that, the materia user’s mind is significantly weakened.

Limit Breaks

When your spirit energy rises to its ultimate limit, for a short while it aligns with and emits from your body. Furthermore, Zack is unusual in that he can copy Limit Breaks, such as taking Aerith’s “Healing Wind” Limit Break from FFVII and turning it into his Limit Break “Healing Wave”. In the same way, Cloud takes his Limit Break “Meteor Rain” from the original Limit Break Zack created based on him called “Meteor Shot”.

Omnislash

When the limit is reached, his sword is imbued with fighting spirit from the heart for just a moment. In the blink of an eye, 14 hits of damage are dealt one after another…. Cloud then dramatically leaps into the air and brings his sword down for the final slash.

Final Heaven

Brandishing her right hand, she concentrates her fighting spirit into her clenched fist. With the fist that starts to emanate light depending on the amount of spirit energy gathered, she deals a massive blow to the monster! The spirit energy that is sent into the monster through her fist starts to destroy it from within, crushing it together with a big explosion.

All Creation

After setting up the weapon to break the seal, she focuses her spirit. Before the eyes of the concentrating Yuffie, a large mass of spirit which glows violet, appears. After the spirit energy has formed up sufficiently, it is directed towards the enemy. The released spirit becomes an obi of light and shoots towards the enemy group, engulfing them.

Essentially?

The Soul = Will/Mind. Memories/Thoughts/Emotions are essentially the main power-sources in FFVII. The more heightened a characters emotions, the stronger that character will grow and perform.

Here and here, having your anger pushed to the limit, you can unleash unimaginable power as a Limit Break. Lower Limit Breaks have less power, but can be used more frequently. Higher Limit Breaks have more power, but can be used less frequently.

vs Incomplete Zirconiade

Here and here, Fuhito's plans for AVALANCHE involve wiping out all life on the Planet and the materia embedded into Elfe's hand is able to accomplish this goal.

Recall?

Here, here, and here, Sephiroth and Elfe clash blades with one another and cause a notable crater to form beneath their feet. Sephiroth senses the Zirconiade Materia in Elfe and notes she possesses an "exceptional strength" within her and warns not to take her lightly.

So even the incomplete Summon Materia of Zirconiade (without Support Materia) has the power to compete with Sephiroth in some capacity.

Anyway?

Here and here, Zirconiade has the power to scorch the Planet's surface of all life. Zirconiade can only be summoned if the summoner possesses all the required Materia. Without the Support Materia to sustain Zirconiade's Materia, the Zirconiade Materia steadily drains the life force out of Elfe in compensation for being incomplete. There are four Support Materia in total, collecting them all will prevent Zirconiade from draining Elfe's life force.

Here, here, and here, Zirconiade is the summon that will reduce the entire world to ashes, burn everything away. That said, the Summon Materia on its own is incomplete and can't summon Zirconiade by itself (thus the Materia drains Elfe's life force to compensate until her death). The Summon Materia needs 4 Support Materia to carry out Zirconiade's summons. Summoned this way, Zirconiade would be imperfect and not fully manifest its power.

Here, ZIrconiade is considered to be a summon that would scorch the Planet.

Here, here, here, here, and here, Zirconiade begins the process of summoning and the four Support Materia fuse with Zirconiade's own Materia thereafter. Zirconiade is considered the summon that reduces everything to ashes. Zirconiade was incompletely summoned via being called forth by its incomplete Materia. In order to materialize completely, the Materia previously in Elfe's body needed to be offered to the summoned Zirconiade. Once fully materialized Zirconiade would be unbeatable. Its defeat required all 4 of its energy supplies be cut off.

Zirconiade

「 BC 」

The summon monster of legend, called the World-Burner. Inside the summoning materia, there is a symbol of a pyramid-shaped crystal. If the four support materia are not assembled, the summon cannot be successful, and the body will be damaged. By using the support materia during the imperfect summon, Zirconaide can be summoned, however, if it’s done this way, Zirconiade’s True Divine Power cannot be utilized.

Final Fantasy VII 10th Anniversary Ultimania:

Here and here, the half dead Player Turk dredges up the last of their strength to use their Limit Break and put Incomplete Zirconiade down.

Summons

Summoned Beasts

Beings which are called forth from summon materia, many of which outwardly resemble monsters. As seen in the original game of FFVII, many of the summon beasts draw their targets into their own unique space in order to attack. However, Advent Children’s Bahamut Tremor, was a special summon beast who attacked while interacting with the real world.

Crisis Core Complete Guide
"Zack Fair: What? Wait... That's a Bahamut Fury!!! You took that from me!? No-no-no! Trust me, you don't want that! Give it back!... Narration: The Materia was sent back to Zack several days later. Its value was most likely lost on Yuffie, being more than she could handle."
"Subdue these legendary creatures to claim their materia."
All Summons the Player Turk has available (sans Titan and Typhoon)

Shiva (here and here)

"An ice-element summon recreated in virtual reality. It is the manifestation of a queen who once healed the planet's wounds with ice, as evidenced by the existence of permafrost in the polar lands."
"An ice-elemental entity and ruler over the world of ice. It is said that she once saved the planet from certain destruction by staunching a great wound with a glacier."

Typhoon (here and here)

Final Fantasy VII Ultimania Omega p495
Final Fantasy VII Ultimania Omega p495

Alright.

I see where that comes from, it depends how you want to interpret 天地崩壊 (This is Typhoon's designation/title it means "Collapsing World" or something to that effect). The main problem being 天地 / tenchi here.

For instance, the 5th pic:

- 放たれた閃光とともに、一瞬のうちに天地が逆転し...

- hanatareta senkou to tomo ni, isshun no uchi no Tenchi ga gyatuktenshi...

- With a flash of light, the World is reversed in an instant...

So, tenchi can mean World indeed, as well as mean Heaven & Earth, Realm... It's a pretty vague term all things considered.

I'm afraid to say this because I'm sure Megatron will jump on it, but it can also mean Universe.

In fact, my dictionary says:

Heaven and Earth, Universe.

Combat Ability (Chapters 1-17)

vs Ravens

For context?

Here, Ravens are on the same level as SOLDIER.

Here, Ravens are considered to be SOLDIER redesigned.

Essai

A SOLDIER 2nd Class who appeared in “BC”. He had been on assignments with Zack in the past, and since then they were close friends. He participated in the assault against AVALANCHE at Icicle Lodge in [ ν ] -εуλ 0002, and was killed in battle. During one of the flashbacks with Tseng in the D.M.W. in this game, there is a scene where Zack and Tseng visit the grave-markers of Essai and Sebastian.

Crisis Core Complete Guide

Here, a pair of Ravens one shot the pair of 2nd Class SOLDIERs Essai and Sebastian.

Here, a single Raven proves able to one shot a pair of 2nd Class SOLDIERs Essai and Sebastian.

So, what can someone of 2nd Class in SOLDIER do? Or maybe even a lower class?

Here and here, during a scripted tutorial in Chapter 4 of the Final Fantasy VII Remake, we're informed summons may begin to stir should the enemy they're facing to be formidable. The "formidable enemy" in question is a pair of Sweepers. One of the potential summons for this scripted tutorial and summoning is Ifrit. Ifrit rouses from slumber because a pair of Sweepers are "formidable".

"A powerful djinn with control over scorching flames hot enough to turn the whole world to ashes."
"A flame-wielding summon recreated in virtual reality. This entity is said to have given humans the gift of fire, and is widely known as the incarnation of creaion and destruction."
"This great horned beast is capable of untold devastation and can reduce anything in its path to a pile of smouldering ash."

Of similar note? For a summon on Ifrit's general level like Shiva?

"An ice-element summon recreated in virtual reality. It is the manifestation of a queen who once healed the planet's wounds with ice, as evidenced by the existence of permafrost in the polar lands."
"An ice-elemental entity and ruler over the world of ice. It is said that she once saved the planet from certain destruction by staunching a great wound with a glacier."
"A 3-C SOLDIER operator who loves bikes, speed, and anyone capable of going toe-to-toe with him. He is ostracized by many in the organization, however, due to his antics and general disregard for anyone's safety."

Here, Roche, a 3rd Class SOLDIER, overpowers a number of Sweepers.

Furthermore?

The SOLDIER cadets fight not only monsters, but the Cutter enemy, Scorpion Sentinel, and other Shinra machines. What is the reason behind that?

Nomura: It’s all part of their SOLDIER training. They have to undergo various situations to experience realistic battles.

FF7R Famitsu February 2021 Interview

You also can refer to Zack Fair during his time as a 2nd Class SOLDIER. Notable feats of his during that time included fighting Ifrit and Bahamut.

vs Bahamut

"A legendary summon recreated in virtual reality. It is the manifestation of a dragon king revered by the original stewards of the planet. According to oral tradition, there are many Bahamuts, each with their own powers and forms."
A non-elemental entity capable of unspeakable destruction. Regarded as a symbol of might since the time of the Ancients...

Here, the beginning (upon summons, Bahamut drags Zack Fair into its own dimension). Here, the ending.

Here, Zack Fair endures Bahamut's "Mega Flare".

vs Ifrit

Here, the beginning (upon summons, Ifrit drags Zack Fair into its own dimension). Here, the ending (Zack Fair beat Ifrit hard enough to leave it temporarily knocked out/crippled on the ground).

Here, Zack Fair endures Ifrit's "Hellfire".

And these are all indeed expected of a 2nd Class SOLDIER, Zack Fair saw no promotion to 1st Class SOLDIER until April of the next year, a good 4-5 months after his skirmishes with Bahamut and Ifrit respectively.

[ μ ] – εуλ 2000

October

· Genesis, who had been dispatched to Wutai, deserts the military, taking with him a host of 2nd and 3rd Class SOLDIERs. This becomes known as the Mass SOLDIER Desertion Incident.

November

· Zack and his mentor, Angeal, are sent to Wutai to take part in an operation to bring an end to the Wutai War. Zack Fair encounters Yuffie Kisaragi for the first time here, and soon thereafter meets Sephiroth as well. Angeal goes missing.

December

· Rufus Shinra assumes the position of Shin-Ra Vice President. At this time, he leaves on what is ostensibly a long-term business trip.

· Zack and Tseng go to Banora Village, which they learn has been converted into a stronghold for his army, with the residents slaughtered. All the evidence is destroyed by a Shin-Ra airstrike.

[ ν ] – εуλ 0001

The summon monster of legend, called the World-Burner. Inside the summoning materia, there is a symbol of a pyramid-shaped crystal. If the four support materia are not assembled, the summon cannot be successful, and the body will be damaged.
