==Appearances== ===In ''Final Fantasy VII''=== {{main|Final Fantasy VII|Final Fantasy VII Remake|Final Fantasy VII Rebirth}} Cloud is introduced as a mercenary employed by AVALANCHE, an eco-terrorist group opposed to the Shinra Company, and who claims to be formerly of SOLDIER 1st Class, an elite Shinra fighting unit.<ref>Square (September 7, 1997).

Cloud joined SOLDIER to emulate Sephiroth, and explains that he would sign up for a "big mission" whenever they became available, as the conclusion of Shinra's war with the people of Wutai ended his chances for military fame.<ref>{{cite video game|title = Final Fantasy VII|developer = Square|publisher = Sony Computer Entertainment America|date = September 7, 1997|platform = PlayStation|quote = '''Cloud:''' I joined SOLDIER so I could be like you.

Cloud confronted Sephiroth at Mt. Nibel's Mako Reactor and was believed to have killed him, but Cloud dismisses this as a lie, as he knows he would be no match for Sephiroth. He is troubled by the fact that although he most likely would have lost the fight, he lived after challenging Sephiroth. However, numerous visual and audio clues suggest the [[Unreliable narrator|unreliability of Cloud's memory]].

It is revealed that Cloud never qualified for SOLDIER, and instead enlisted as an infantryman in Shinra's army. During the mission to Nibelheim, he served under Sephiroth and Zack and hid his identity from the townspeople out of embarrassment. Following Sephiroth's defeat of Zack at the Mt. Nibel Mako reactor, Cloud managed to ambush him and throw him into the Lifestream, believing him to be dead. Both he and Zack were imprisoned by Shinra's lead scientist, [[Professor Hojo]], for four years of experimentation. Zack later escaped with Cloud to the outskirts of Midgar before Shinra soldiers gunned him down.

Cloud. ......the master of my own illusionary world. But I can't remain trapped in an illusion any more......
