My Information
I was a top ranking member in SOLDIER, with the highlight of my career in the Midgar/Wutai war, the most powerful and skilled fighter there ever was, and many people admired me. A year after the war, during a mission to check on a Mako reactor at Nibelheim, I got to the reactor and inside I discovered capsules containing monsters, I saw that they were once human, but have been exposed to a large amount of Mako energy, so they mutated, the same way that Shinra soldier's are given small doses of Mako energy to give them more power. As well as the capsules there was a chamber at the top with 'Jenova' written above it, I realized that it is the same name as my mother's, I started to think. I wasn't a standard SOLDIER, I was the most powerful and the strongest SOLDIER in the Shinra army, this made me wonder if I was 'created' in the same way as the monsters in the capsules (since Jenova was kept in a chamber next to them), was I an experiment? My files were secret, kept locked away somewhere. Somehow I knew of the hidden library in the Shinra mansion (back in Nibelheim) and decided to go there and find out my origins.
I disappeared for days in the Shinra Mansion library, reading everything I can find that might be connected with who I really am. I found out two major things, about the Ancients and the Jenova Project. I learned that I was created through the Jenova Project, and that Jenova was my mother. Here's a bit more on that project...
Professor Gast found an organism, 2000 years old, and named it "Jenova," and identified it as a Cetra. Being Shinra's top scientist, the Jenova Project was approved under his guidance and conducted in Nibelheim. A Crisis struck the planet (which was Jenova hitting), it put the lives of everyone and ultimately the entire planet in danger. Some of the Cetra fled from the danger, leaving the rest to die whilst saving the planet. The cowardly Cetra were the ancestors of humanity. The Cetra were an Ancient race of people who lived on the planet before humans did. They had special powers and could communicate with the planet. When they died they would go to the promised land, a place which Shinra decided would be full of Mako energy, so of course they wanted to find it. They appointed three scientists to work on the Jenova project, where they would recreate the Cetra using the cells of Jenova. Shinra wanted the recreated Cetra to lead them to the promised land. The project intended to produce in the modern era an individual with the abilities of the Cetra.
Believing myself to be the sole survivor of a race abandoned to a sacrificial death by the species that currently dominated the Planet, I lashed out in rage, razing the village of Nibelheim and slaughtering most of its citizens in my wrath. I then attempted to retrieve the remains of Jenova from the nearby mako reactor, but due to the interference of Cloud Strife, only managed to escape with the Jenova’s head, retreating with it into the Lifestream.
In the time that followed, I gained mastery over Jenova's powers, essentially acting as an evolved form of the creature. Its own mind — that of an instinctual creature seeking to destroy — ceased to operate and my will assumed control. After drifting through the Lifestream, I arrived at the site of Jenova's impact. While in the Lifestream, I had absorbed the knowledge of the Cetra and now set in motion a simple yet devastating plan: scarring the Planet, so that when it healed, I would be situated in the middle of the wound, where I could absorb the Lifestream's energy and then be reborn as a "god" who could control the Planet's lifecycle.
Jenova's body was moved to the Shinra HQ in Midgar, where it remained for five years. I took control of Jenova's body and broke free from its container murdering President Shinra along with a multitude of the Shinra personnel working in the building. In the time immediately following my departure into the Lifestream, Hojo, believing me dead, began experimentations on other humans, specifically the survivors of the Nibelheim massacre. Injected with Jenova cells and showered with mako, the results of the experiment were known as "Sephiroth clones." (The Sephiroth clones were not genetic copies of me, but rather humans augmented with a similar procedure to that which produced me.)
Finally, the clones were drawn to the Northern Crater's Whirlwind Maze, where the Jenova cells were reassimilated by the main body of Jenova through the murder of the Sephiroth copies and the casting of their bodies into the Crater itself.
Two years after my Initial defeat at the Northern Crater, I used Kadajs body to reappear, along with that I had been using Geostigma in a plan to corrupt the Planet's Lifestream and grant myself control of it. From there, I would repeat Jenova's goal to travel to another world
The meaning of my name
If you look up information on the word "Sephiroth" you will see that it comes from the teachings of the Kabbalah. In the Kabbalah's teachings there are 10 Sephiroth (plural: Sephirah) symbolized in the Tree of Life. Each Sephiroth represents a path of ideas, attributes and concepts that one must realize and understand within oneself. Once that is done a person will have reached divine perfection, realized their Inner Christ and so forth. In relation to me, as throughout the game I'm striving to become like a god, to reach that perfection, and to go to the Promised Land. I have given you an [accurate] insight into the meaning behind my name. I am no expert on the Kabbalistic teachings, what I have written is only a [very] brief summary. My name, also might probably came from: The angel Sephious, one of the three angels that was banished to hell with Lucifer. He begged god not to send him to hell because he didn’t deserve it. So god plucked one of his wings, but barred him from heaven. He was the angel of death and life, and was forced to keep the balance of good and evil.
The name One-Winged Angel
In one of my battles with Cloud, I took the form of an Angel. I had 6 white angel wings which supported me from beneath my body ( or my torso as it were), and then I had the dominant dark, strange looking wing coming from my right arm/shoulder (I presume this is the wing that gave me the title of "One-Winged Angel") making a total of 7 wings. However, as stated before, The angel Sephious one of the three angels that was banished to hell with Lucifer. Had begged god not to send him to hell because he didn't deserve it. So god plucked one of his wings.
Kadaj, Loz and Yazoo
Yazoo, Loz and Kadaj are embodiments of my will, as manifested through my divided Spirit Energy...... and that of some extra tainted Spirit Energy from the Life stream. Being part of my spirit, if They come into contact with Mother's cells. Each one can become my host, recreating me. There are not really my brothers or actual kin, though with the connection they share with Jenova it merely a title. You may click on each of their images to go to their profiles.
