Well, both Goro and Seifer are, first and foremost, a dark mirror of the superficially quiet protagonist clad in black, mostly due to the similar powers and weapons they exclusively wield (the Wild Card and the Gunblade). For various reasons, both aren't exactly on good terms with the party despite being teammates, and, surely enough, would eventually come to betray them as they're the villains' right-hand-man, though the consequences for that act could not be any more different.

Both have a keen obsession with their skewed version of justice and righteousness, which is reflected in the design and body language they display as a temporary and unwelcome party member. Nevertheless, their arguably biggest struggle is the need for recognition, which, combined with their obsession with justice, made them easy to manipulate by the villains, though it should be noted that it isn't entirely unwitting, as they're essentially children in teenage bodies who never got to grow up properly throughout their childhood.

Quite a sad tale, huh?
