Crescent Unit

Crescent Unit is an organization in Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-. It is the elite fighting force of Wutai. According to the Crisis Core Complete GuideCrisis Core Complete Guide translations at TheLifestream.net, Crescent Unit is said to appease the wrath of Leviathan and smite the enemies of Wutai; it is skilled not only in combat, but also in espionage. Like other Wutai soldiers, Crescent Unit soldiers are armed with gun-lances.
The privates in Crescent Unit wear uniforms with a gray base and trousers embroidered with a chakram; commanders wear uniforms with a black base and trousers embroidered with a dragon. They also wear a mask. It is a custom for each member of Crescent Unit to be given a name related to the moon. The Five Saints of Wutai also belong to Crescent Unit, and after the end of the Wutai war, they gather together the remnants of the Wutai army. It is later revealed in Mission 4-3-6 that Crescent Unit's true objective is to get revenge against Zack Fair for what he did to Wutai during his mission at Fort Tamblin.
