Seifer is a serious, grim man who shares a deep rivalry with Squall. For reasons unknown (and speculated broadly), Seifer seems to have an intense dislike for Squall and tries to prove his superiority whenever possible. Both men share a scar on their foreheads, obtained from a training session duel where Seifer pulled the trigger on the Gunblade. Squall reacted and pulled at the same time, supposedly from shock.
