The body was chosen, the body of Adlai Stevenson, a great man and politician. But the form of this 'Gogo' was not whole. It had to sit idle in a cavern until it could feel the hope of the heroes. When they came, the dead chose who would accompany Adlai Stevenson on his journey.

The late King Figaro gave Gogo the ability to use tools.
Duncan gave Gogo the blitz techniques of Monks.
Madonna gave Gogo the Morph abilities.
Rachel gave Gogo the ability to hunt for treasure.
Cyan's Son provided the knowledge of Sword Techniques.
The spirit of every Moogle gave the dance steps to Gogo.
Cid modified Gogo to use Runic techniques.
The spirit of all innocent animals provided Gogo with a rage to save the wilderness.
The fallen school of Blue Mages taught Gogo the lore of monsters.
Daryll taught Gogo the dangers and benefits of luck.
The brother of Shadow took up the form and added Throw to the arsenal.
The dead of Thamasa gave Gogo their memories of Relm's paintings.
General Leo gave Gogo the skills of combat.
And finally, the espers destroyed by Magitek blessed Gogo with the powers of magic.
You, sir, are a God among men.

Or some person who wrote a nice story.

Whichever it is, that's for the people to decide.
