Angeal Copy

From Final Fantasy Wiki

A fallen Angeal Copy with Angeal's face exposed

Angeal Copies are clones of Angeal Hewley in Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-. They are similar in nature to Genesis Copies and Sephiroth Clones. Unlike the other two, they are typically monsters, but with a unique feature: they have Angeal's face grafted onto their bodies.

Since Genesis Rhapsodos was a "failure" in terms of similarity to Jenova, his clones are limited to only humans. However, Angeal was the most perfect creation of Project G, and thus can pass on his genes to any creature, be them human or not. He can also take on the traits of his own Copies, which he used to transform himself into the hideous chimera, Angeal Penance. The Copies are able to recognize each other in a limited sense.

The only known human Angeal Copy is Lazard Deusericus, who was transformed into an Angeal Copy late in the game. After changing, Lazard took on Angeal's physical features, including Angeal's white wing. Despite Angeal's supposed "perfection", Lazard became subject to the same degradation as Genesis and his brand of Copies. Another Angeal Copy was a metallic wolf that helps Angeal's friend Zack Fair at the Sector 5 Church. This copy is special in that it had its own wings. Both die of the degradation at the end of the game, apparently ending Angeal's genetic memory on the Planet.
