"A pro isn't someone who sacrifices himself for his job. Thats just a fool." - Reno
"...because it's our job." - Rude
"Reno, do you think that was really such a good idea!? I mean, is that the way a professional - a Turk - would act?" - Elena
The Turks act similarly to an intelligence agency or investigative bureau, engaging in reconnaissance and espionage, or even black ops, including kidnappings and assassinations, on behalf of the corporation. They are consummate professionals, adhering to the mission no matter what. Due to the nature of their job, members are privy to numerous company secrets, and as such, become security risks should they resign.
Throughout the events of Final Fantasy 7, the Turks come into conflict with Cloud Strife and his friends, members of a second incarnation of AVALANCHE who are working to save the Planet from Shinra's exploitation. They are ordered to capture Aerith, the last remaining Cetra, whom Shinra wants to lead them to the Promised Land, a land they believe fertile with Mako energy.

Relics
Go home. No Cloud USB or Zack CSB here.
We do get a new mechanic with en-element stacking now though - called Empowered Infusion. While you can't chain normal en-element SB's to achieve the effect, certain SB's (such as Sephiroth's USB) bestow a special form of en-spell where any further en-spell use will increase the damage done up to 3 stacks (+50/70/100 to abilities and +80/90/100 for SB's).
Also, if a SB has both Empowered Infusion and an en-spell, the Empowered Infusion is applied first.
The effect lasts for 25 seconds, and *all* en-spells will fall off after it wears off, even if you applied a new en-spell 1 second earlier.
Banner 1:
Sephiroth leads off with his USB here, 15 hits of dark only damage with en-dark, stack en-dark, Atk +50% and Def/Res -15%. Most of the mechanics of the stack en-spell are explained above, so just be weary that this has no non-element to fall back on.
xXSeffieXx's OSB and BSB 2 return here for maximum dark.
Nanaki gets his buff-suite USB, bringing defensive Atk/Def/Res boosts, a hastega, and Astra. The son of Seto sees his BSB come back, too.
Finally, Rufus Shinra has something beside the Mako Shotgun that everyone has 8*'ed by now. Rufus' BSB isn't amazing though, pairing a convergent dark/non ranged AoE attack with a multiplier scaling inversely with # of enemies and imperil dark. His commands are Sharpshooter school, with Cmd1 is 3 hits of ST dark/non damage with non-type shortcharge 2 and Cmd2 is 2 AoE hits with a chance at a minor imperil dark proc.
Aerith gains a needed revision to her aging BSB, pairing an entry Curaga with bar-dark. Her Cmd1 is the usual instant curaga, but her Cmd2 is an Atk/Res buff with high regen to one party member. Her reraise SSB pops in on Banner 1 as well.
Shelke's SSB suite of AoE Dispel, party Esuna, and High Regen rounds out B1.
Banner 2:
Reno kicks of B2 keeping his phy/mag hybrid role. His USB is 10 hits of ST ranged or magical lightning/non damage, a Mag or Atk + Def boost, en-lightning, and the Cycle quickcast mechanic with lightning element abilities. His BSB reappears here as well.
Cid is done with his tea. His USB is 10 hits of ST wind/non with en-wind and 15 seconds of jump noncharge with an Atk/Def boost. Do note that this only affects the *cast time* of jump abilities (including USB re-entry) and not the "air time" of jump abilities like Sky High or Aerial Drive.
Rude's BSB is another hybrid entry 10 hitter with en-earth. Cmd1 is a hybrid earth/non 4x attack, while Cmd2 is a 40% ally heal with post-ability change Stitch In Time status (Atk+Mag/Def bargain). His SSB is a Pro/Shell buff with Last Stand.
Do note that Rude's BSB commands are NAT, like Yuna's Tiny Bee Cmd1.
Elena has an instant entry BSB that pair imperil-fire with AoE fire/non ranged damage. Her commands are Shooter school, with Cmd1 being a 4x hit and Cmd2 is a 2x AoE hit with a 42% chance to proc Confuse. A little underwhelming aside from the instant imperil (but Locke does it better anyways). Her SSB is the standard 8x random attack with en-fire.
Tifa's USB and Shelke's BSB shows up here to round out the banner.
Rude's fists (earth), Shelke's spear (lightning), and Elena's thrown (fire) are not tied to RS.
