Alyssa Vitali



The daughter of a miner in small-town Kalm, Alyssa was a mix of rough around the edges and girl next door. Her upbringing was rather typical, going through the same motions as most of the other blue collar families around her. Her own family however did gain more distinction once her father made the move to open the town's weapon shop after the Mythril Mines closed down. She could often be seen helping out with the business as early as her teens, assisting with the sales of regular stock such as potions and ethers, in turn making her a familiar face among the residents of Kalm.

When she was of age, Alyssa left her hometown to seek employment with ShinRa, Inc. Not content to sit behind a desk all day, she opted to enlist within the company's Public Security Division where she began her career as a Peacekeeper. After a couple years of meritorious service, she was recruited and then selected for candidacy to crosstrain into SOLDIER. While an unexpected career turn, it was one she accepted enthusiastically.

Though much more rigorous and taxing than she expected, the transition was mostly seamless. Her time with the company's infantry gave her the experience she needed to excel, and upon completion of training and enhancements, SOLDIER Vitali was awarded the rank of Third Class. From there, based on her prior enlistment and previous experience, she was transferred to Junon as her first duty station as a SOLDIER.
