Gogo Fan Theory: Is he Sigfried's imposter?

A recent theory popped up that suggests Gogo was linked to an incomplete sidequest related to the NPC Sigfried.

Supposedly it's claimed Sigfried had imitators and even Ultros was trying to impress him.

I don't know what the real story is, but after studying the story behind FFV's "Famed Mimic Gogo", it seems like they aren't the same person. Amano's illustration of FMG depicts him a lot "shorter" than Gogo of FF6.

The impression I get is that Gogo was in the same or similar situation as Gilgamesh and got caught in the Dimensional Rift (sometimes called "Eureka" or "Abyssea").

S/He would have to be as strong as Sigfried or stronger to survive the Rift.

As a fan of Mimics, and Gogo, I'd like to get some concrete info if possible.

My username IS "Mime"blade for a reason you know!

I posted this in the FF8 thread, Kitase revealed that Gogo and Umaro have no backstory at all, they're just there.



Also Ultimecia isn't Rinoa

Saying what Gogo ultimately became as a "side character" isn't the same as saying what Gogo was in pre-production. I still have my doubts about what "he" (Japanese verbiage) was intended to be.

Also Squeenix had no qualms about bringing back dead characters in FFXIII-2, so the whole Aerith thing is kinda meh to me.

He answered that too, though, in saying that Gogo didn't have any background story, and that they were just there to be extra characters to play around with.

I'd have expected him to suck less at fighting if he were Gogo

My pet theory is that Gogo is a by-product created when Kefka absorbs the Triad's power.

He is really all that is left of Kefka's humanity, and all he can do is mime other people's actions. Kefka is now a complete monster, and this blank slate is all that could be created from what was extruded from him, after he became all-powerful.

Mimes are a kind of clown, after all.
