Party member and Cosmo Canyon native · Cosmo Canyon

The party meets him in Shinra’s laboratory under the designation Red XIII. His own name, Nanaki, and his home in Cosmo Canyon reveal a life beyond that captivity.

  • Story: Cosmo Canyon’s events challenge what he believes about his father and connect his personal history to the planet’s survival.
  • In the game: He can serve several combat roles because Materia is flexible. Choose his equipment and spells to fill gaps in the active team rather than assuming his animal appearance implies a fixed physical-only class.
