Squall Leonhart Squall is Seifer's rival. In the end he achieves at Seifer's expense. They both use gunblades though Squall does so with less skill. To compensate he uses more strength. (GF boosted strength at that.) Its believe that at the end of the game Squall is paired up with Rinoa. (Or dead as is my belief.) Squall's character must have looked like a good idea at the time... but really putting such a character in a game as the lead role was asking for trouble. Squall seems like a very ordinary modern young person. (He doesnt care as long as it doesnt affect him.) He doesnt dance, and doesnt socialize very well. Despite this the people in the group of main characters like him better than Seifer. (Girl's think he's more cute too.)

Rinoa Heartilly At the start of the game, (But away from the main story.) Rinoa and Seifer know each other. Friends perhaps. They have known each other for two years and its likely that she has something to do with his 'break out of the Garden and capture the pres' campaign which inadvertantly made him the enemy. After he's captured she admits that she thinks it may have been love... but as far as I know she never gets to try that idea out. Somewhere later in the game she becomes the sorceress, Seifer kidnaps her and takes her to adel and she goes insane with grief over Squall's death in that dessert that reprisents the edge of time compression. (Note her insanity makes her hallucinate Squall's pressence.)

Quistis Trepe The instructor at the Garden where most of the plot takes place, she loses her position as an instructor for failed leadership qualities. (Looks like a direct result of Seifer's actions on the mission.) Early in the game she spends a lot of time picking on Squall by predicting what he's going to say. (Its not hard, just use a 50% chance that he doesnt care.) This ends when Squall tells her to go talk to a brick wall. She also picked on Seifer a little but his replies didnt seem to disturb her as much. Quistis would have probably spent more time with Seifer while he was at the garden than any other playable character. Mainly because he's more likely to get some sort of detention than any of her other students. I also know that she was there when Seifer broke out, and yet wasnt hurt enough to stop following him all the way to Timber. (Could she have avoided getting in direct contact or did he just not want to hit her?)

Selphie Tilmitt. A transfer from another garden early in the game, she seems to be everything Squall is not. (Bubbling with personality and energy... not to mention female.) Her first interaction with Seifer is trying to tell him to retreat. Like that was gonna turn out well. She replaces him for the second part of that mission filling in the third slot in the group while they retreat... and how. Later in the game (Perhaps at the point where Seifer is starting to regret.) They actualy have some dialogue that isnt based on combat. She tells him he's not her type.

Sorceress Edea. Edea was the sorceress about the time Seipher left behind his goal of becoming a SeeD. I still believe that she had a really big input into making him the sorceress' knight. (Yeah, like not having him executed.) Edea and Seifer dont talk as far as I know, the one time they did she called him a child and I expected him to go psycho (Either cut her down or cry.) Later when they're seen together he just stands there looking glazed over and pleased.

Chicken-wuss. Zell's the little kid that Seifer bullies. All the time. This may have had something to do with the particularly violent and energetic form of combat Zell uses. Zell loves hotdogs, I bet that given the oppertunity Seifer would eat extra just to piss him off. But could there be a connection? Seifer bullies Zell more than anyone else. It could just be this is how he shows his friendly affection... if that is the case Seifer's more psycho than I thought.

Irvine Kineas. Do they ever meet? I dont know. I doubt Irvine would get along with Seifer any better than the others do. That and Irvine's inability to fight when its decisive would piss Seifer off to no end I imagine. All in all I think Irvine would have made a better farmer than a SeeD. I wont even mention his sheep-shag coat.

Laguna Loire. The guy is an idiot. I dont think he ever met Seifer but I doubt they would get along. He starts off as a soldier, ends up who knows where. Maybe Seifer could respect his ability to shoot people but thats about it.
