Legend
“How ‘bout them Costa del Sol ladies?”
Custom Title: The Legendary Turk
Age: 47
Gender: Male
Family: none
Race: Human
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Home World: Gaia (FFVII)
Alignment: ShinRa
Job: Turk
Items: PHS, handgun, bombs
Accessories: sunglasses, black tie, black gloves
Appearance: Legend stand fairly tall at around 6ft. He’s lean and muscular, although still slim, and has bright blue eyes hidden by his sunglasses. His hair is blond, and long-ish, styled so that it is swept back out of his face. He’s rarely ever seen without his shades or a cigar in his hand, even if he isn’t smoking it right at that moment. He’s also very physically fit for someone of his age.
Personality: Legend is rather laid-back despite his age and his reputation. He is known as the “Legendary Turk” or the “Death God of the Battlefield” thanks to his infamous fighting skills, but he is actually rather lax when it comes to his duties. Despite being 47 years old, he’s a little rough around the edges and a little lazy when it comes to most things. He’s not quite as mature as most would expect someone of his reputation to be, and took part in one or two pranks, and briefly aided a couple of others, back when he was a Turk.
He’s friendly to those that have his trust, and to most people in general, but if you get on the wrong side of him, you’ll regret it. Despite being generally laid-back, he can have an awful temper when it comes to anyone that angers him enough, crosses him or the people that he cares about, or is an enemy on the battlefield. He also has a slightly softer side that he only shows to close friends and ‘family’.
History: (All but the last paragraph is from FF wiki…coz I got lazy XD)
Legend comes from Junon, and actively fought against Shinra before being recruited by the Turks by Veld. His skill on the battlefield was so feared that his enemies called him the "the Death God of the Battlefield" during his time fighting in the Wutai War. Despite being very skilled, he is actually rather lax in his duties and loves women.
Two years before after the start of the game, on November 11th, 1999, he refused to rescue a kidnapped arms dealer for Shinra (instead leaving him to die when the building they were in collapses), thus causing him to be placed under house arrest in Costa del Sol. It is later revealed that in 1997, an arms dealer negotiated with Legend's old Anti-Shinra group. The arms dealer betrayed the group and only Legend survived. He lost all of his comrades and a little girl who was very important to him. He recognized the arms dealer and when he asked about the incident, the dealer denied knowing anything. He was not very bothered by the punishment, because it gave him ample time to get to know the women of the beach town.
On January 10th, 2001, Veld contacts him regarding a possible new threat to Shinra following the Wutai War. Tseng is sent to recruit him. Tseng tells the former Turk that he understands what happened years ago and understands his actions with the arms dealer in Wutai. Tseng also says that he would do the same if he was put in that situation. This prediction comes true in the form of the AVALANCHE insurgency.
A year later, with Veld demoted and Heidegger's incompetence, AVALANCHE attacks Junon. Veld calls the Turk and requests him to fight AVALANCHE with them and help his comrades to which he agrees. The Turk easily dispatches the operatives and he realizes how much he's missed the battlefield. Realizing Veld is back in command and the Turk's legendary strength, AVALANCHE retreats. At the Turk headquarters, Veld thanks the Turks for their efforts and tells them that someone had helped him. The Turks are stunned as Legend enters the room. When the Turk is asked to consider joining, Legend replies that he has entrusted his life to the Turks.
However, he returned back to Costa del Sol, declining the Turks offer despite the fact that he trusted them with his life. As far as Legend was concerned, he wasn’t ready to return yet, if he ever would at all. Now, however, he has been thinking a little more lately of his old comrades, but not enough to make him consider going back quite yet. He does, however, miss them all. After all, after what happened to his old group before he entered the Turks, the Turks had become his ‘family’.
