Clone number 49 disappeared after being defeated and Barret was revived by the Whispers, but number 2 soon arrived to take Jenova's body and threw himself off the roof of the building. Clone number 49 had also come to the building, and Cloud's party, as well as Shinra executive Palmer, saw him take the form of Sephiroth himself, who took Jenova's body from professor Hojo's lab and murdered the President and Barret before facing the party as Jenova Dreamweaver. During the party's trek through the Shinra Building, they witnessed an apocalyptic vision of Sephiroth-clones and a burning Midgar and an approaching Meteor in the Shinra VR theater. They were initially found staggering around the slums, but Cloud at times saw the clones as Sephiroth who taunted him in various ways. In Final Fantasy VII Remake, two pale men in dark cloaks were seen: numbers 2 and 49. The twelve successful Sephiroth-clones became the group of fanatics that follows Sephiroth around in Final Fantasy VII.Ī Sephiroth clone holding Jenova's body in the remake. Zack, also a Sephiroth-clone, was a complete failure: he was not mentally affected by the experiment due to previously being unaffected by the identical SOLDIER procedure. Cloud Strife's status, had Zack Fair not intervened and rescued him from the Shinra Manor, is debatable. Those who turned into mindless slaves were tattooed with a number somewhere on their body, but those who failed and kept some shred of their ego were left to die. Since Jenova was a puppet of Sephiroth, the clones also became fanatics who would do anything for their master. Those not the finest in physical and mental health, and thus could not retain their senses of self, became shades of Jenova. He injected them with Jenova cells and exposed them to mako energy, similar, if not identical, to the creation of a SOLDIER member.

In the original Japanese script, the clones are known as Sephiroth Copies. ![]() The ones Hojo considered successes have a number tattoo somewhere on their bodies. Hojo rejected many test subjects as failures, leading the exact number of people mutilated by this experiment to be unknown.

After breaking out of cryogenic sleep, Zack 'dragged' Cloud everywhere, trying to escape from Shinra, all the way to Midgar for nearly a year. Cloud was injected with Jenova Cells, effectively turning into what a SOLDIER is but as he never actually passed a SOLDIER exam, he isn't a true SOLDIER in that sense.Ĭloud became good friends with Zack during the Nibelheim mission due to both coming from small villages with big dreams and Cloud was never (not very sure) jealous of Zack. Long story short there, Cloud and Zack was experimented on and was placed under cryogenic sleep for 4-5 years. Cloud had a few opts that showed he is somewhat of a decent fighter and he didn't meet Zack until the mission to travel to Nibelheim where everything started. Oddly enough, he had exceptional sword skills despite being a regular infantryman but I digress. He didn't make the cut he was only a regular infantryman, one of those random grunt soldiers you've been beating up at the start of the game.
