If You Were A Character Of Any Final Fantasy Series, Who Would You Be?

I'm inclined to say Laguna, but that would be approaching who I'd want to be not who I am most like. I like his carefree yet idiotic over-thinking conflicting attitude.

As for who I am most like, I think it boils down to Cid Highwind. Like Cid, I have a tendency to swear up a storm. We're both dreamers as well, but can get shut down as soon as someone says no. Instead of over coming that "no" in a movie-esque manner, both Cid and I handle it in the same way. Acceptance while becoming very bitter toward the subject and eventually other people.

Like Cid, I am also too empathetic to kill someone even if it means a complete halt of my dream, but despite this quality we both come across as bitter old-timer *** upon first glance. There's also a certain shared quality about living in the past and a general dislike of things modern. If it was good back then it is sure as hell good now.

Then there is also the lighter side. A common trait between Cid and I is that our actions are not motivated by right and wrong (unlike say.. Vincent who is trying to right his wrongs), but mostly "just for the hell of it". Cid initially goes along with Cloud and the gang because he finds the plan to be insane and wants to see what happens.

Given that I played FF7 when it was still fresh, and I just a youngin', I'm not certain if it influenced me to be who I am or if it was coincidence. I do know, however, that it is because of the various Cids that I have an unhealthy obsession with Airships. I don't have the eyesight to become a pilot myself, but it hasn't stopped me from various models over the years.
