I think Seymour is a copy. They took Sephirtoh, dyed his hair and shaped it weird. Put veins on his face called him a guado, changed his outfit and named it somethin else.

you could say the same thing about zidane: they took cloud, stopped using hair gel, gave him different clothes and a tail.

Ja this should go to general FF since we are covering 2 characters from 2 different FF games. HOWEVER, we are not allowing these random vs random battles.
