So, explain this to me again, because I'm still kinda new. How exactly is FG Cloud able to casually warp reality?

Yeah, I'm kinda wondering about that as well.

-slaps Seer-

Only I can use that excuse!

FG Cloud has gone through several Reunions and by this point has absorbed the Lifestream of several Planets. He's also gone through several Training from Hell as well as a self imposed one in order to control it.

This is a robbery. Give me all of your money and I'll kill you.

Okay, so I can see how absorbing the Lifestream (wait, wasn't that a bad thing in FF 7? Wasn't Sephiroth planning to do that?) would make him...obscenely powerful. But isn't the Lifestream just fuel for magic, basically? Does he have a materia for "rape the laws of physics?" (I'd laugh my ass off if he did). I'm just kinda curious as to how this entire series of events unfolded. Also, what the hell is a Reunion? I honestly have no idea.

Yes. He achieved what Sephiroth was trying to do the whole time, albeit with other Planets. The guy would shit bricks if he knew.

Why, exactly, did Cloud do the exact thing he spent an entire game trying to stop? That kinda sounds like Goku blowing up a planet for funsies.

-Edit ninja'd. Getting to those other points in a moment-

He didn't do it. Actually, the first time, it essentially drove him mad. Azathoth did it to him for the lulz, and then later again so he could take over for him for a bit.

Yes, he actually does have magic to rape the laws of physics.

He also did an extensive study of the Necornomicon.

Basically Fen is the tail end of a long series of events between Azathoth and several other Gods that appeared in the FG.

Also Reunioun...is..welp you're playing FF 7 so I would spoil that.

EVERYTHING

The Lifestream is life. They explain it later, but magic just happens to be a convenient side effect. Actually, using the Lifestream as fuel fucks things up. Badly. Didn't you read Barret's rant? (Don't worry, I mashed through it, too.) That's why everything outside Midgar is barren.

The Lifestream is essentially an infinite source of energy (again, assuming you don't refine it and/or use it for fuel). You return to the Planet when you die, but your soul is still perfectly acceptable to use as raw materials, so who you were is gradually absorbed and erased, and the life is used in something else. So it's less reincarnation and more being an organ donor.

So, with an infinite amount of energy, plus having read the Necronomicon, yes, he can fuck up reality to a certain extent.

And I'm not explaining Reunion. You'll find that out yourself.

I actually did not mash through Barret's speech, though it's partly because Barret's my favorite character at the moment.

Yaaaay.

So yeah. Barret talks about the environment a lot, and why mako is bad.

I'm glad that I asked to be the guy who has a gun instead of an arm. This is a good thing.

Barret is an Angry Black Man hippie with a gun for an arm. That can't not be awesome.
