II. PERSONA
Due to the experiments she was made to endure Shelke has developed a stunt in how she expresses herself. Often times it is difficult for her to properly get her emotions across outside of extreme circumstances. In turn this has effect of making her come off as robotic to most, if not void of emotion all together. Though once close to a reality now a days it is simply a side effect from what she went through, as she has come to rekindle those emotions through her travels with Vincent and through Lucrecia's memories.Though it has gotten better with time Shelke does have a strong habit of looking at things through a logical lense, rather than an emotional one. though this can help at times with planning for various things beforehand, it becomes a deterrent for her when it comes to matters of the heart, whether romantic or in normal conversations with friends or coworkers. This can lead to conflicts with her budding emotional state as she sorts through what she should reasonably due and what she should do, emotionally. A conflict that while she is improving, has yet to fully work out yet in herself.
That aside, Shelke has developed both a sense of camaraderie and loyalty, most strongly towards those who do place their trust in her. Because of the difficulty she can have in forming genuine connections she cherishes the ones she does have above most anything else, willing to put herself in danger to protect those bonds. In such situations is when the girls determination shows itself the best, even if she doesn't fully understand why, she knows in her heart, that she desires to protect the people that matter to her.
Yuffie's a bit annoying though...
III. HISTORY
At the age of nine a young Shelke Rui was discovered to have a rare ability, 'Synaptic Net Dive' and, due to this ability she was to be taken form her home, her sister, to take advantage of this ability for SHINRA themselves, though originally meant to brought into SOLDIER to fulfill this purpose,Rufus' plans interfere and means she ends up in DEEPGROUND instead. Once there she was subjected to a wide form of experiments and training, all for the purpose of harnessing her abilities. These experiments would take there toll on the young girl both mentally and physically as her growth was stunted a the age of nine and over time cut herself off emotionally, instead turning to logic to drive her actions. This also had the side effect of making her require Mako (or something similar) in order to keep herself alive. In time she would prove herself worthy of joining the ranks of the Tsviets, but due to her physical condition she was not able to be sent outside of DEEPGROUND for missions or combat. None he less with he SND abilities invaluable Shelke became their fourth member, under the title 'Shelke the Transparent'
Later on, while rebelling against the Restrictors Shelke and Argento would upload a virus into the Deepground supercomputer, which would have the effect of freeing those affected by the restrictive chips they bore, later, with the group in need of another worthy candidate she was told to use her powers on one they selected, manipulating their thoughts and memories so that they would hate the Restrictors.
Later on the Tsviets are in search of the Protomateria, and using her abilities Shelke is able to find it's carrier:Vincent Valentine. She would go on to find him during DEEPGROUND's attack on Kalm, alongside Azul. Though they would try to take the materia from him, Shelke's losing power would force the duo to retreat. She would later infiltrate the WRO's base alongside Azul using her cloaking ability, however through the interference of her sister Vincent is alerted and the two sisters reunite. However the reunion only brings up the painful memories she had went through in DEEPGROUND, cuasing her bitterness to win out in the end-though a shower from the sprinklers would prevent her from going through with her attack and allowing Vincent to get Shaula to safety. Afterwards Shelke faces off with Vincent who, after a rough fight is able to use sedatives to subdue her.
A few days later she awakens, having been taken in by the ones who defeated her. She claims to her sister that it was a mistake to let her, an enemy live, Threatening to attack again until Azul himself manages to break free. Vincent and her sister try to fight back against Azul's more bestial form are unable to break threw, leaving Shelke to bring him to a crawl. While stopping the man's rampage with her shield materia she learns that she is now being targeted for termination in addition to their goals, as she had both been captured and outlived her usefulness in their eyes. Stunned, Shelke is only able to use her materia once more to slow Azul down, while Shalua attempts to pull her away to escape. However Shelke's reluctance to go with her results in the door they are to esape through beginning to close on them, as well as Azul begining to catch up once more resulting in her sister blocking the door with her artificial arm and ultimately, sacrificing herself to allow her to escape. an action that left a confused, stunned Shelke to ask 'why' The response by Vincent causing a resonance in Lucrecia's memories inside her.
This results in Shelke informing Vincent that she had previously absorbed some of Lucrecia's data into her mind in order to find the Protomateria. She offers to combine this data with the rest Vincent had already found in order to get a clear picture of what they were up against, as well as to regain control of her mind. On board the Shera she makes a terminal and performs an SND in order to fulfill this purpose, learning of the groups goal to bring forth Omega prematurely to destroy the world. As they prepare to assault Midgar Chaos begins to overtake Vincent, observing this Shelke returns Vincent's cell phone, which she had earlier obtained and now modified so that he can keep in contact with her, to him after his dismay, though she insists on only doing so, and helping the WRO for her own benefit, She is taken abak when Vencent says he is depending on her, as no one had counted on her up to that point. She is able to use the information she gathers to assist in the assault on Migar, keep watch on the ships status and montier Vincent on the ground.
After reaching the remains of the Shinra Building, Vincent begins to lose himself to Chaos once more, however Shelke speaks to him in Lucrecia's voice, informing him of the nature of Chaos, and the ability of the Protomateria to control it until it was taken from him. She encourages him to fight against Chaos' influence, telling him that she does not wish for him to die, however her SND visor short circuits shortly after. There after Cid complains of something going on in the engine room which Shelke offers to investigate, only to the fallen crew members as well as one of her form teamates, Nero the sable. Not wanting to fail the people who had put their trust in her Shelke confronts and fights against Nero, but after a short skrimish she is overwhelmed and captured by his dark powers as well, only able to protect herself within them thanks to her Shield Materia. Overtime in this darkness Shelke comes close to giving up, however a combination of Lucrecia's memories, as well as her own of her sister comforting over their mother's death. a vision of her sister asks if she can return to the planet after this, to which which Shelke gives a firm 'no' rubbing this encounter off as data interference she rubs tears away that had begun to fall down her face, surprised as she had thought she did not have any more tears to shed. Vincent is able to recuse her just as her materia had begun to give out, placing her in a regeneration tube to recover thereafter.
Later as Vincent confronts Weiss Shelke prjects an image of Lucrecia to Vincent, encouraging him to control Chaos rather than try to overpower it. Later when Omega awakens and Chaos has overcome Vincent Shelke theorises that the souls in Omega act as a network, and uses her SND ability to dive into Omega and retrieve the protomateria. Within the darkness she finds herself in she sees an obscured figure resembling Lucrecia who hands her the Protomateria, Shelke returns this materia to Vincent under the appearance of Lucrecia, allowing him to finally gain control of Chaos, stop Omega and save her.
Once the conflict has ended Shelk remarks on things a week later, of the life she now has as she tries to fill n the gaps in her life she had missed out on until now, she has realized that she is not alone, she even sends a message to Vincent reminding him of his promise to tell his feeling to Lucrecia. As Vincent emerges from her cave later he finds Shelke, now in more casual clothes, having sent by their other friends to retrieve him, though she remarks that she doesn't understand why they did so..... but also saying that she does not mind. They smile at the sky, and then leave to join their friends.
That is as far back as Shelke herself remembers, but she does not recall how exactly she ended up int the world she now finds herself, only that she was thankful a supply of her Mako had come with her, for she had been able to find more sense. In order to get by she had taken up some work, sometimes in the mercenary line, and sometimes as an asset to gather information for employers. But one thing had been consistent in her time in the world:She had not seen Vincent, or anyone else she knew yet.
Perhaps in some ways that was best for the girl.
After all, their were some shadows she'd never want to see again... even more so with the looming threat of her Mako supply running low.
