Guess the FF Master has to give his 2 cents, here is what I posted in the other thread:

Hojo did impregnate Lucrecia and is Sephiroth's father. That much is a fact. She may of loved him or not but I did find out that Lucrecia the name in fact comes from a poem "The Rape of Lucrecia". You can derive your own opinions from that.

The reason she does not make an appearance in the sequel I believe is because she is dead. In the end she asked Vincent if Sephiroth was dead, she had heard of his death but dreamed he was alive. Vincent then lied and said he was dead. This could of set her free of her bond to that world and let her die in peace. Also explains why when you get Vincents final weapon later she is nowhere to be found.

Good post, i was just wondering why it didnt go in the theories thread just for the sheer hell of it, oh well, really good job!

There is no discussion about it, Hojo is the father. Why do you think Lucrecia turned down Vincent's proposal? She did love Hojo I believe until he turned psychotic and obsessive with his experiments.

Well fact or not people will always discuss back and forth that Vincent could have possibly been Sephiroth's father. Lucretia may have been intimate with both Vincent and Hojo, it is not unheard of. She just ultimatly chose Hojo. And paid the price for her choice.

(Although this boggles the mind for me.... but I guess where I am such a Vincent fan I can't imagine anyone picking freakin' Hojo over Vincent...)

Regardless of whether Vincent was Sephiroth's father or not if he wanted to protect whatever remained of Lucrecia on the earth, she is still his mother and Vincent would have been unable to battle him. But he saw that the planet's fate was more important than trying to keep that last piece of Lucrecia alive.

Personally in FFVII I thought she was a ghost, not actually her, but I am sure there are many people that disagree with that.

She was such an important part of Vincent and what happened to him, that I wouldn't put some involvement on her part out of the question in this game, although it might just be flashbacks.

Well, now duh! Now that you mention the J-Cell thing, I see that you are right considering her still being around.

As for Hojo....I don't know if he had that mad receeding hairline back when she picked him, but if she did, I think it is a possiblity to think that Lucrecia may be partially blind or something.

(Disclaimer: the previous staement is said in jest. )

First of all they are scientists, there was chemistry there (no pun intended) and Vincent sad to say didn't stand a chance. She loved Hojo and had a child with him, however Hojo loved his work more and because he had no success with a grown specimen he wished to try an unborn one. That's how it went, at the time Vincent didn't stand a chance which is why she turned him down because she loved Hojo and had his child.

Also Lucrecia is dead, if you check the other thread in the FF7 forum I think I noted it pretty well.

I would be very surprized if it turns out she is alive because the way they do the dialogue and story her death seemed about certain. 90% sure myself that she killed herself or died in some way after Vincent told her of Sephiroth's death, 99% sure Hojo is the father.
