About
Lucrecia Crescent (ルクレツィア Rukuretsia Kuresentto): A young female scientist who serves as an assistant to Grimoire Valentine, having been dispatched to him by Shin-Ra. She is an acquaintance of Vincent Valentine, who happens to be both Grimoire's son and a Turk. When her own unchecked ambitions into scientific study results in Grimoire's death, dying while saving her, she severs ties to Vincent, unable to face him with her guilt.
She became an assistant to Hojo and Gast during the Jenova Project. Although Vincent, who was assigned to montior the project and guard the scientists, fell in love with Lucrecia and attempted to court her, she felt too guilty about the death of his father to return his affections. Instead, she entered a relationship with Hojo, who -- along with Professor Gast -- used her as subject of an experiment successing Project G's investigating the effects of Jenova cell influence on human in utero development. Lucrecia began receiving horrific visions of the horrors her unborn son would commit. In an untimely encounter, Lucrecia walks into a room and sees Vincent on the floor and Hojo holding a gun, realizing immediately that Vincent had been shot. Vincent ends up in a large test tube, where he absorbed Chaos and became wild in feral rage, though his life was saved. Lucrecia then used a Materia that can control Chaos to calm Vincent.
Disgusted with all that she had done, Lucrecia isolated herself in a cave behind a waterfall, not only out of guilt for what became of Vincent and the deaths her son would cause, but from fear of the effects that Jenova's cells could have on her and the possibility that she could become dangerous as well. She even attempted to kill herself, however, the treatment she received granted her unnaturally long life and resilience, and she was unable to die. She is later discovered by Vincent during the time frame of the original game, willingly encased in a large mako crystal.
Lucrecia: "Vincent..."
Vincent: "That voice? It can't be..."
Vincent: "Lucrecia?"
Lucrecia: "Vincent?"
(Vincent runs forward.)
Vincent: "Lucrecia!"
Lucrecia: "Stay back!"
[Flashback]
Gast, Hojo, Lucrecia, and Vincent walk into the Shin-Ra mansion. Vincent stops before entering, turns around, and looks up at the sky.
Vincent and Lucrecia talk as they walk through Nibelheim.
Vincent holds Lucrecia's hands just before the entrance of Nibelheim. Lucrecia jerks her hands away and runs out of the small town. Vincent reaches out for her and then lowers his head.
Vincent spots Lucrecia and Hojo hugging before the town entrance. He turns towards the screen and again lowers his head.
Vincent: "If she is happy then...
I don't mind."
In the Nibelheim Inn, Lucrecia sits in a chair and rubs her stomach.
Vincent: "I'm against it!!
Why experiment on humans!?"
Hojo: "She and I are both scientists!!"
Vincent: "After that,
A child was born to Lucrecia..."
Vincent: "That child's name was
Sephiroth..."
Back in the inn, Lucrecia walks a bit and suddenly faints.
Vincent runs into the basement laboratory and confronts Hojo. They argue for a while until Hojo pulls out a gun and shoots Vincent. Vincent staggers for a moment and then he falls.
Hojo places Vincent on the lab table and starts experimenting on him.
Vincent awakens, gets off the table, and grips his head.
Vincent: "Urrrrrrrrgh!!"
Vincent: "This body is...
the punishment that's been given to
me..."
Vincent: "I was unable...
to stop Professor Gast and Hojo...
And Lucrecia...I was unable to stop
them."
Vincent: "All that I was able to do was
watch...
That is my punishment..."
[Flashback Ends]
Vincent: "Lucrecia...
You're alive..."
Lucrecia: "I wanted to disappear...
I couldn't be with anyone...
I wanted to die..."
"But the Jenova inside me
wouldn't let me die..."
Lucrecia: "Lately, I dream a lot of Sephiroth...
My dear, dear child."
"Ever since he was born
I never got to hold him..."
"Not even once.
You can't call me his mother...
That...is my sin..."
(Vincent moves forward.)
Lucrecia: "Back!!
Stay back!"
(Vincent stops.)
Lucrecia: "Vincent...
Won't you please tell me?"
Vincent: "What?"
Lucrecia: "If Sephiroth is still alive?"
"I heard that he died five years ago.
But I see him in my dreams so often..."
"And I know that physically, like myself,
he can't die so easily."
"Please Vincent
tell me..."
