In ''Final Fantasy VII'', the party first encounters Red XIII in the [[Shinra Building]], where [[Professor Hojo]] is attempting to mate Red XIII with [[Aerith]] in order to preserve their species. When Red XIII begins to show aggression toward Aeris, [[Barret]] reacts by shooting the tank, causing it to malfunction. Hojo opens the tank, and Red XIII lunges at him as the party rushes to rescue Aeris. Red XIII introduces himself to everyone, surprising them with his ability to talk, and states that Red XIII is not his real name but rather a moniker given to him by Hojo. Red XIII joins as a party member, agreeing to accompany them up until they reach [[Cosmo Canyon]]. | In ''Final Fantasy VII'', the [[party]] first encounters Red XIII in the [[Shinra Building]], where [[Professor Hojo]] is attempting to mate Red XIII with [[Aerith]] in order to preserve their species.

At Cosmo Canyon, the party meets the village elder, [[Bugenhagen]], whom Red XIII refers to as his "grandfather." Here, he reveals to them that Red XIII's original name is {{nihongo|'''Nanaki'''|ナナキ}} and that although Red XIII is 48 years old, it is the equivalent of being 15 or 16 in human years. Red XIII reveals himself to be the last of his species. Although he fondly remembers his mother, Red XIII is angry over his father, [[Seto]], whom he calls a coward who left behind his mother and the people of Cosmo Canyon when the [[Gi Tribe]] attacked. In response, Bugenhagen invites Red XIII and the party to enter the [[Cave of the Gi]], where Red XIII learns more about his father. | At Cosmo Canyon, the party meets the village elder, [[Bugenhagen]], whom Red XIII refers to as his "grandfather."
