Yuffie Kisaragi

Yuffie Kisaragi (voiced by Christy Carlson Romano and Mae Whitman) is an optional playable character in Final Fantasy VII. She is a Ninja and a Thief, wielding a large shuriken.

Yuffie is a Materia hunter encountered in various forests on the Planet, Gaia. As a rebellious and cocky tomboy, she desires to restore her homeland Wutai to the glorious nation it was before being conquered by the Shinra Electric Power Company. Despite her obnoxious personality, Yuffie is friendly, helpful, optimistic and willingly helps the party in their battles.

Yuffie is one of two optional characters along with Vincent Valentine. As such, she has almost no impact on the game's main storyline, but there are some changes made to various scenes if she is recruited. She can join after being discovered in various forests after the events at the Mythril Mine, encountered as the Mystery Ninja. She wields shurikens in battle for ranged attacks, and her Limits usually involve her hitting multiple enemies at once.
