Tifa

Tifa grew up in Nibelheim with Cloud. When Cloud came back on a mission when he was 16 and she was 15, she was studying under Zangan as a martial arts student. She was wounded by Sephiroth and taken to Midgar to be healed. Where she joined Avalanche, the resistance group that is against the Shinra, with Barret. She then met Cloud there and shortly after is when the game begins.
