"Jenova was a Calamity that fell from the sky a long, long time ago, and tried to destroy the planet..." -Marlene Wallace
Jenova is an extraterrestrial life-form in the Final Fantasy VII series who serves as a major antagonist, being a central point for the series's story and crisis. Experiments conducted on its cells, done by the Research & Development Department of the Shinra Electric Power Company, have produced many of the setting's adversaries, key among them Sephiroth.
Throughout Final Fantasy VII Jenova is often referred to as "she", though Ifalna calls the entity "he" (or "it" in the PC version). This alien has a humanoid feminine form and is said to be the "mother" of Sephiroth.
The Cetra called Jenova by many names: "cataclysm from the stars", "calamity from the skies", "crisis from the sky" (空から来た厄災, sora kara kita yakusai?, lit. disaster which came from the sky), or "heaven's dark harbinger".
