Who do you think is the coolest member of the Turks ?
My favorite has always been Reno, for his calm attitude.
As you can see, I've included Reeve in my poll. But I'm not so sure if he is a member of the Turks or not . So if I'm mistaking myself, please forgive me.

Tseng! Cold, badass leader! And very cool-looking too! I also like the fact he and Elena have a thing together. A shame that Sephiroth kills him so early in the game!

I love Elena. Though I've...developed her in fanfiction from what she was in the game, so I have a different idea of Elena then most people ^-^

From there, I love Reno, then Rude, then Tseng.

*wishes she has Turk plushies to huggle*

Edit:

Reeve isn't a Turk, he just works for Shinra. He's on the upper management, I believe.



--------------------

I had an old signature. Now I've changed it.

I liked both Reno and Rude, but i picked Rude because he's cool as the strong, silent type. And Reeve is the Head of City Development of the Shinra Inc.

The clouds ran away, opened up the sky
And one by one I watched every constellation die
And there I was frozen, standing in my backyard
Face to face, eye to eye, staring at the last star
I should've known, walked all the way home
To find that she wasn't here, I'm still all alone

I gave it a Null Vote, I liked Vincent the best.  He did used to be a Turk right, or is my brain playing tricks on me again?

I've replaced Reeve with Vincent as option five, as Vincent was a Turk, and Reeve never was.

Reno for me.  He's lazy and drinks a lot.  What more do you want from a videogame character?  And his field model had a cool stance and walk animation.

Well, pooh. I wanted to vote for Reeve.  ;-)

Actually, I was torn between Reno and Rude, so I picked one at random: Rude.

Veni, vidi, dormivi.

Reno.  I liked his attitude.

Good old CoN

Silent Rude gets my vote, although Vincent has better style.

I voted for Reno (one of my favorite FF characters of all time), but I thought they were all as cool as pre-pickled pickles!  ....except for Elena.  She was nowhere near the leader that Tseng was, and was an annoying spaz.

Was she ever the next leader after Tseng?

I don't know why people think she took over after Tseng.  I don't see any indication of her holding any sway over the other Turks in the game and, for heaven's sake, she only became a Turk at the beginning of the game, and didn't exactly impress Tseng (professionally) either.

The most likely person to be in charge would seem to be Reno, to me.

Reno, he's suave and has a cool weapon.

As per my avatar, I had to go with Reno. He was the longest lived of the turks(first one you fought) and, (unless I remember wrong) he was there every time you fought the turks.


EDIT: I'm playing through the game again, and I found one instance where you fight Rude but not Reno.

I'm gonna go with the majority (conform conform) and vote for Reno. He's all snarky and insulting, and he's the most interesting-looking of the bunch. And he doesn't annoy the hell out of me with attacks like Grand Spark or that one that Elena has that confuses someone.

I'd pick Vincent, but since he's an ex-Turk, we never got to see him being, um, Turkish. So I can't really judge him in comparison to the rest of them.

There is one very short instance where you see Vincent as a Turk. it's when you go to Lucrecia's cave while still on disc 2

Possible spoilers: highlight to view

You see him in Nibelheim, along with Lucrecia and, who I presume to be Hojo and Gast, he apparently fell in love with Lucrecia (there's no text so I can't be sure if that's right) and then testing is carried out on Lucrecia (she's injected with Jenova cells) and Vincent blames himself for not stopping Gast and Hojo. He gets shot and tests are performed on him, after which, I assume he is sealed in the coffin in the basement of the Shinra manor in Nibelheim

Well, yes, there is that, but I dunno...he wasn't really doing any of the things that the Turks are allegedly supposed to do in order to be called Turks (although I have to admit that I'm hard pressed to tell you what, exactly, that IS ). In the flashback you mention, he was just sort of being a guy in a suit. We didn't get to see him bust out with some cool attack or snappy catch-phrase, like the rest of the Turks seem to do every time you run into them. It is a cool suit, though.

Hmm. I just realized that the emoticon looks like Rude...

wow it does look a lot like Rude the turks are very very cool, my vote goes to Reno though, shame we didnt see the Turks more, isn't it?

Vincent. He deserved an ending moment with Sephiroth more than Cloud did.

Possible spoilers: highlight to view

After all, Sephiroth was the rape-child of Vincent's girlfriend!

They should have involved him more, even if he was a hidden character

Hmmm...Do you say one TURK or one TURKS? The most logical would be one TURK, but I have a feeling I saw them saying "one TURKS" somewhere in the game. Can anyone confirm?

"Stop it Elena, you're a Turks!"

It is all over the place, and it looks ridiculous. It's fixed in the PC version, though, so it's surely a mistake.

I liked Reno and Elena the best. They had the most personality. I think Tseng and Rude could have been good but they didn't seem to get as many lines.
