really nice photo! may i draw you? pleasy? ^^

say, what do you think, does her name mean "earth"? i just thought that "aerisu" kinda sounds like a japanese transcription for the word "earth" or something like that.

You spoony bard!

Aw thanks so much! ^_^ ANd of course, you can draw me!

I think her name does mean earth. Because in the game she has a close connection with the Planet, because she is a cetra and all...so what better a name for her than earth!

yeah, so they called her "aerith" cause "earth" is not a name at all and sounds lame. XD
but i didn't play the game, just watched the movie, so i have no clue what a cetra is. mind expaning? (i did play the 8. game with a friend once but it was long ago).
i think that i'll buy the seventh and thenth games, i find them so cool and the animation is AMAZING!!! i tried to draw yuna from X-2 once, but sonce i only saw her on a few pictures i can't decide whether it lookes like her.

Yeah, I can explain! (I borrowed this from Wiki) The migrations of the Cetra were a Planet-reverent pursuit of the fabled Promised Land, one conducted by traveling from one area to another and cultivating life as they went. The Cetra had the unique ability to commune with the Planet, an ability which regular humans lost once they gave up their close relationship with the Planet in favor of leisure and convenience. Cetra also had the ability to guide the flow of the Planet's spiritual energy, this being the means by which they were able to cultivate life on the Planet's surface.

They were on the planet long before the events of Final Fantasy VII and long served as its caretakers until their race was nearly reduced to extinction by the extraterrestrial entity known as "Jenova." Jenova arrived on the Planet some 2000 years before the events of Final Fantasy VII, crashlanding on the northern continent within a meteorite. The impact site was a massive crater that would come to be known in later times as "the Northern Crater," a wound to the Planet that would not be healed even by the time of the game's beginning.

What was already a bad situation became all the worse once Jenova emerged from its impact site and approached the Cetra settlements, gleaning their memories and emotions from their minds and adopting the forms of their dead relatives in order to get close to them. It was then that it released a virus upon the Cetra (in actuality, its own cellular material), a substance that drove the Cetra mad and caused them to transform into monsters. A small band of unchanged Cetra united and mounted on a final assault on the being they referred to as "the Calamity from the Sky," surprisingly managing to defeat it and seal its body in the Planet at Jenova's point of arrival, the Northern Crater. Jenova itself would later be excavated by Shinra Electric Power Company scientist Professor Gast and be mistakenly identified as a Cetra.

That sums it up. Sorry it's so long.

Just make sure you buy either a PC version of VII or still have a PS because I have difficulty running VII on my PS2 and I don't think it will even run on a PS3...I really hope Square makes a remake of it for the PS3 with the advance graphics they have now...But I know that probably won't happen. u.u
