Rude

Character from Final Fantasy VII by Square Enix

A bald, sunglasses-wearing Turk who fights with his fists and speaks with his silence, the stoic counterweight to Reno's chaos.

Rude says little and hits hard. As Reno's partner in the Turks, he provides the quiet professionalism that balances Reno's showmanship, communicating more through nods, grunts, and the precise application of violence than through words. He harbors a secret and deeply inconvenient crush on Tifa Lockhart, which manifests in his reluctance to hit her at full force during their encounters — a vulnerability Reno teases him about mercilessly. Rude is loyal to the Turks above all else and carries out his orders with the efficiency of someone who made peace with the moral costs of the job long ago. In combat, his bare-fisted fighting style is devastatingly effective, capable of shattering concrete and staggering opponents twice his size.

Appearance

Tall, broad-shouldered man with a clean-shaven head, dark skin, and a pair of black sunglasses he never removes. Wears a crisp, properly buttoned navy Turk suit — the polar opposite of Reno's disheveled version. His fists are his weapons, wrapped in reinforced leather gloves, and he fights with a boxer's disciplined economy of motion.
