Plots
Rufus is a young man with a slim build, fair skin, blue eyes, and chin length, slicked-back, platinum blonde blond hair. He claims to resemble his mother more than his father. He dons a double-breasted white business suit resembling a trench coat over a charcoal gray dress shirt with a black tie. He wears baggy white pants similar to a hakama, with white belts resembling himo straps draped around his waist, black fingerless gloves, and black leather boots. Rufus is a confident, calm, and charismatic leader who is ruthlessly ambitious and callous, striving for nothing but the best. He is fearless and entitled, ruling through fear rather than money, determined to maintain Shinra's control over the world, and believing that everything the company owns is rightfully his. Rufus is enigmatic, rebellious, and cunning, covertly leading Avalanche and Wutai in a scheme against Shinra to dominate the world. He is also adaptable and sharp-witted, always ready to take action and taunt his enemies. Rufus had a strained relationship with his father, President Shinra. While his father used his birthday as a passkey, he often neglected Rufus during childhood due to his busy schedule. Despite eventually being appointed as Shinra's vice president, Rufus received no executive authority and his father warily regarded his aspirations. Despite their shared goal to discover the "promised land", Rufus disagreed with his father's leadership and undermined his decisions during meetings. He rebelled against his father, working with Avalanche to overthrow him, but failed. Rufus seemed unfazed by his father's death, seized the opportunity to become Shinra's next president, and aimed to lead the company into a new era. Rufus has a business relationship with the other Shinra executives. He organizes board meetings and listens to their input, but questions their lack of effort to stop his father and demands the same loyalty. He regards incompetent subordinates coldly, especially Heidegger, and is wary of Hojo's experiments. Despite past conflicts, Rufus began commanding the Turks after saving them from losing their jobs and execution. In return for his actions, they swore loyalty and serve as his faithful retainers. After nearly dying in Diamond Weapon's attack, Rufus dramatically changed his perspective. He realized all of the wrongs that Shinra had committed and sought to redeem himself and the company. With the aid of the Turks, Rufus began working for the benefit the planet, coordinating the construction of Edge, helping defeat the remnants of Sephiroth, and secretly funding the World Regenesis Organization.
