Commander (VII Rebirth)

The Commander is a character from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. She is in charge of a number of Shinra's military forces, including the Midgar Seventh Infantry.
== History ==
During "Dawn of a New Era", Cloud Strife, Tifa Lockhart, and Aerith Gainsborough decided to infiltrate Rufus Shinra's inauguration parade. When the three were caught in their security officer uniforms, the commander assumed they were with the Midgar Seventh Infantry and tasked Cloud with finding the rest of the Seventh Infantry spread throughout the Upper Junon, and leading the parade formation. She was strict with the three, stressing the need for perfection, discipline, and to show the best of the local military at the parade, taking part in the rivalry the rest of Junon had with Midgar. 
The Seventh Infantry's main rival in the parade was the Midgar Motorized Cavalry and Roche's coordinated stuntwork. If the Seventh Infantry won the contest, the commander excepted the award and looked honored and touched. 
The party returned to the Junon Region later in "A Golden Key" where the Seventh Infantry was trying to eliminate dangerous fiends. The commander recognizing Cloud as their 'captain' and assuming he was currently undercover, she lamented that the headquarters was not supporting them more in their efforts to protect the local people. As Cloud partook on fiend elimination, the commander surmised he and the party were, in fact, imposters, and part of Avalanche. Having seen the effort they spent to protect not just the people but the Seventh Infantry, she agreed to turn a blind eye and let them pass, wishing them luck though they may be on opposite sides if they met again. Despite this, she seemed to have gained a respect for Avalanche and the party.
== Characteristics ==
=== Appearance ===
The commander is a tall woman with chin length blonde hair and brown eyes. She wears a red Shinra military uniform, cap, white gloves, and red lipstick. Her outfit is somewhat based on what higher ranking Shinra military members wore in the original Final Fantasy VII.
