Seifer

Kingdom Hearts II
Like some of the Final Fantasy characters already present in the Kingdom Hearts series, he appears a bit younger, and hails from a world in the Kingdom Hearts universe, meaning that the Seifer Almasy of Kingdom Hearts II isn't the same person as Seifer Almasy of FFVIII, though they are similar in many ways.

Apearence and Personality
Seifer's clothes are slightly based on FFVIII's original version, but redesigned to match with his age and new style, that includes a beanie with the "Ore" kanji (which is a distinctly masculine and sometimes vulgar way of refering to oneself). The scar Squall gave him in FFVIII is also shown in the game.

His personality is also very similar to the Final Fantasy version: he's cocky, sarcastic and a self-proclaimed protector of order (even if he's only trying to make people follow his own rules).

Game Role
He is the leader of the simulated Twilight Town's Disciplinary Committee (a reference to FFVIII Balamb Garden's Disciplinary Committee) which includes his followers Raijin and Fujin from FFVIII who are known in KHII as Rai and Fuu as well as Vivi from FFIX.

He appears to be a rival of Roxas, always bad-mouthing him (he calls Roxas a chicken-wuss the same way he usually did with Zell Dintch in FVIII) and picking fights with him and his friends. He is also the town's Champion for the Struggle Tournament in Twilight Town.

In the real Twilight Town, when he meets Sora, Donald and Goofy later in the game, he treats them like Roxas in the illusion Twilight Town. But when they save him and his gang from trouble, he gave them the Struggle Trophy, a sign of great respect. Seifer can also be fought in a Struggle battle after beating both Hayner and Setzer ten times each.

Trivia

 * Seifer's cameo received some criticism from fans, especially for his out-of-character quote "That was undeniable proof that we totally owned you lamers".
