Just a moment while we sign you in to your Goodreads account. He, alongside Cait Sith , has also appeared on a Potion can. This article needs additional citations for verification. Goodreads Librari In the original game Cloud's party encounters him during an experiment involving Red XIII and Aerith , in which Hojo is trying to interbreed them to "preserve" their species Aerith being a Cetra , and provide him with new specimens. Red XIII can still be feral when called upon. Maybe he wrote himself into a corner there. Red XIII remarks the name is a designation given to him by Hojo, so they can call him what they wish. Rating details. Amos interrogates Allenby, who is killed by Mongoose's assassin; Amos himself is rescued by Kim Rowland. In the final product, Red XIII's tribe is unnamed, but otherwise he is roughly the same as originally conceived. They sourced a man named Jason Fly who was transformed into a Steve Rowland double, but soon after, Fly disappeared, when he was shot and lost his memory, just before the story began. I enjoy reading the series, bu This is a very generous 3-star review. XIII has no evidence or witness against him, however. Nanaki later leaves Wutai , but returns on the Shera to help Yuffie continue to search for a cure for Geostigma.
